From ice princess to pretty in pink...

Sydney was an all-white furby that I bought off of e-brokenfurb-Bay, new in box. She arrived safely but didn't turn on. I posted here on the forums about her, and Dr. Rob recommended an invasive procedure that was simple but would require removal of the fur, etc. I finally performed the surgery the night before last and did a photo diary of it. However, the digital camera that I was using died about halfway through, and so I don't have those pictures. I borrowed my mom's cam next and managed to get a last shot of the surgery and of the results.


This is a picture of Sydney right after I removed her from her box.

The Operation
WARNING: graphic picture of furby surgery! I decided to link to the above picture as I wasn't sure that everyone would want to see it. ^_^

The surgery went very well, I'm pleased to report! At first I was a little freaked out because the screwdriver that I was using to prod the motor wasn't doing anything at all...but then I realized that it might not be magnetic, and I tried a different one that worked perfectly. While Sydney was in surgery, her snow-white fur was carted off to be dyed bright PINK! I honestly wasn't sure if the dye would work, and the inside lining of the fur took to the dye much better than the fur itself did, but all in all, it was a success!

Wow nice pictures!!! I :wub: them!! the pink was a good idea but I like the white fur I have a furby just like it his name is Bill.

Beautifly colored :D

I am not a big fan of pink my favs are all kinds of blue my favorite oh I have to know everone favorite color because I am making somthing for them with their name on it but I am going to make a new topic so go there

What a beautiful transformation Welshiegal, and Sydney's eyes seem to have changed colour too, she looks adorable, well done :D

wow!! the pink fur makes the furby even more beautiful!! nice work! ^_^

Wow! I'm so excited about the transformation, welshiegal!!! Sydney looks absolutely wonderful. I love her in this color and she's so unique now...not like any other furby in the world. A true one of a kind! (I looked at the operation photo too...oh my, you were very brave indeed! :blink: I'm glad her surgery was such a success.) :D

Hey - thats a really good idea of making a truly original furby :) I've never taken off furby skin though, I know one day I may have to but I'd like to try and avoid it :( :rolleyes: Have you plans for any other dyes now you've done this one

I like pink. :flam: What type of dye did you use?
