Furby,the animatronic wonder that was the toy sensation of the Christmas season of 1998.Unlike past crazes Cabbage Patch Kids and Tickle Me Elmo,Furby was actually worth the hype. ------------------------------------------------------- A small furry animatronic creature Furby interacts with his owner and his environment via a series of sensors.Touch sensors on the front and back allow for petting and tickling,while an internal sound sensor allows hearing and a light sensor detects changes in light.It all comes together to create one very believable and lovable electronic pet.
