Furby

More often than not, we think of toys as fun items we can play with. Besides just looking cool or adorable, many of these toys also possess a couple of features that make them all the more worth having. Other times, though, these same features also make them annoying – according to our parents, at least.

One such toy that takes credit for causing quite a buzz among parents and kids was the Furby series of toys. First introduced in 1998, these furry little fellows can do a couple of things, like blinking their eyes on their own and making weird sounds. Plus, they can also “communicate” with another Furby. More and more versions have been made through the years, and the earlier ones have since become rare collector’s items for Furby fans. In fact, if you just so happen to have one of its first editions lying around in your house and it’s still in mint condition, you could sell it for about $900.
