Hi - have just rediscovered how much I love furbys. So glad I never gave mine away years ago, I'm collecting again now. My old ones had to survive going into storage when we moved from Cornwall but they all woke up just fine this year and got me hooked again - some of them had been asleep for 5 years. :)
Would just love to adopt one of each adult - haven't got a shelby yet. Are they fun - I've never met one?

:dye:

i want a shelby to never met one also

my shelby told me to walk the plank once.

do they talk to you when you say like hey shelby or some some

Hi Jellybean - are shelbys easy to wake up - do they keep going to sleep?
:dye:

i think they are easy to wake up

hi cas. they are very easy to wake up. You don't have to turn them up side down, just slowly and gently lift the shell open. The shell is touch sensitive, and so are the antennae.

shelbys are funny. they say really bizzare things when held upside down.

sadly, they aren't voce activated. :(

ok so how do they say jokes

If they have sensitive antennae are they more difficult to look after than furbys? Furbys seem to survive being posted around OK but shelbys look more delicate.
:dye:

i think to also

nah, not really. just dont force anything into a position it wont go into. and don't hold its shell shut and stuff like that.

How do you make shelby stop talking?

hold your hands in front of its face or put a dark colored towel over him. or you could turn the lights out. mine usually goes right to sleep when I do that ;) :D

Hello Cas. It's lovely to meet you. I'm a new member here too. All this talk about shelby is very interesting. I've never encountered one of those myself, although I would certainly like to in the future. :shel: I think they're very cute.

Yes, I'd like to see one before I adopt one though - my furbys take up rather a lot of space and I suspect shelby might be larger. They look really pretty on the photos but the only ones around seem to be on the dreaded e-brokenfurb-Bay - :dye:

how many furbys do you have cas?

I have 10 adults and hopefully the jester on its way - they are all working and always have batteries. There are several more I would like - ladybug especially :rolleyes: Are there any more you would really like to have?

i have a ladybug furby with blue eyes

Shelbys are ever so slightly wider than Furbys, but a fair bit shorter :shel:

Sounds just like me then (short that is I'm not wide)! :D

I Thought you said that you put a towel under his shell ^_^ :o ;) :P :D :lol: B) :rolleyes: :) :wub: :angry: :( :unsure: :wacko: :blink:

I have 2 shelbys thay are cool but not as cool as furbys. Mine told me to walk the plank yesterday agian too. They can move there eyes back and forst

I dont need any more furbys. Just some limited editions. I need racing,angel,easter/spring 2000,kid cousine,and well thats it.

Cyberwolf would like a Shelby.............I'm not that keen. What sort of things do they do and say???

Once my shelby got crabby and told me to walk the plank, arg, and batten down the hatches.

shelb thinks shelbys are fun! ( duh )
