Overwhelmed with nostalgia for a childish pseudo-creature with a glaringly absent off switch? Sounds like you’re looking for a Furby. No, not the old, mangy monster whose batteries died in your toy cabinet all those years ago, we’re talking about a new animatronic animal — one kitted out with capacitive touch sensors, glowing LCD eyeballs and even a companion iOS app. Six colorful variations of the chatty creature are now available for pre-order at Walmart, each commanding a $54 price tag. Not sure if this is the simulated pet you’re looking for? Check out our hands-on and see just how much Furbish you can take.Filed under: Misc.
