Furbies Return!

[redhawk23]

I am not particulary surprised by this, but Hasbro is bringing back the furbie, those anoying mutant talking creatures that invaded our homes in the late 90s.

The new furbies have quite a bit of modern tech crammed in them and it comes at a price, $60 to be exact.

Theres a video at the link. Somehow the LED screen eyes are even more terrifying and souless than the old plastic ones.

Ugh. How did these things escape through the Gates of Hell?

*to those that don't know the story the Pentagon banned the toys for fear they would somehow tell top secrets stuff Pretty sure the furbies are not spies

I loved my Furbies as a child. I may actually buy one of these new ones, just for nostalgia's sake.
