I’m officially open for a long furby commission! Only one slot for now. I’ll make your long furb exactly to your specifications, from the fabric to the faceplate! I know it seems pricey, but here are reasons: I’m gonna spend $30-40 in materials alone, and long furbys take long hours to make! So you’re paying for materials and the work that goes into assembling them. I’m going on a first come first serve rule: first to PM me gets the slot.
Note: I am not the original creator of the long furby, I just really love the idea and I want to help other people achieve their long furby dreams too!!
I really like the idea of Furby anthros. It’s unsettling enough to keep people on their toes, but ALSO there’s great potential for both biocore and robocore designs. These two are enjoying some summer snacks. :)
please read all of this if you would like to enter!!
I am giving away one of my darling leopards! I will ship anywhere, so doesnt matter where you live!
a little bit about her: - she has been skinned and cleaned and given a new zip tie - she is like. so soft and plush. i dont even know how. - she does not have msa - someone before me painted her beak and tongue with nail polish, i sanded it down and painted over, but you can still see a bit when she opens her mouth - her little beak sometimes falls down and she talks without moving it like some kind of ventriloquist. its a quirk!

I didnt have a real furby to do surgery on so i had to make him from scratch, the face is made out of polymer clay, and his hair is made with brushed out yarn. The rest of him is just old clothes. I made his spine using a lot of wire and then i covered it in fabric so it wouldnt end up poking holes in him, and it wasnt the best spine, but it works for what it is.
He was mostly intended as a test, because i want to try to make another one later, and I wanted to see if the pattern i drew would work well for him.
His name is Raggedy Furbolicious McScraps, but his nickname is Rags, or Raggy.
This was worth spending time on. 10/10 would do it again.
The original long furby creator is @furbyfuzz, and I really wanted to make one after i saw @strange-aeons make Thursday.
Dont tag as kin/me/id/any kind of sona tag.
He’s gorgeous and perfect in every way??
Blessed boi
Thank u for gracing my eye holes with this beautiful being today
Prices are as listed above. Modifications can be made to designs if arranged may change prices.
If you donate and show me the screenshot we can discuss your ideas and what your little creature will look like.
In the spirit of full transparency, I will not be working on these commissions from dec-jan. Dec is going to be very busy for me because of a lot of issues already addressed in the link above and Jan I will be working on already commissioned work. These will be done Feb- March.
I will be capping these at 6 for the first 2 options including the clothes and 1 for a long Furby because its a lot to ask commissioners to wait that long.
what is instagram? well, instagram is like. tumblr but very very heavily image focused. like mainly images, sometimes short vids. you can find the instagram app in the app store for your phone type!
instagram already had a thriving furby community before any of us even thought about maybe having to leave tumblr, and many of our furblr community members are already there! so in this instance, it definitely wasn’t that the migration effort built or made it like we did with the amino, and like we’re doing with reddit currently. we just got kindly shown around by the folks already there.
so! i am passing this tour on to you. check it out–
Tags
instagram tags differ from tumblr tags in that it’s a space and not a comma that breaks the tag SO as a result, instagram tags have to be all one word
the tags people have been posting to are as follows, and they pretty closely mirror the tumblr tags
#furby
is general furby content! there’s also a japanese furby enthusiast community who uses this tag which is pretty neat imo
#allfurby
all the furbs same as here
#safefurby
low-stress furby content! no nsfw, no discourse. i personally refrain from posting my oddbodies to this tag bc i know they bother some folks. i’m not saying that’s The Law, i’m saying that’s what i’ve chosen to do
#findfurbyfamily
is the tag for connecting with other furb folks migrating!
special note about side accounts:
you can have side accounts linked such that you don’t have to sign in and out to move between them, but you don’t get a pooled dash. instead, you have to sign up for each account via a separate email, and swap between them via a drop-down menu on your insta profile. the cool bit about this is that you can have a furby dash, and a personal dash, and another hobby dash, etc, without crossing the streams.
this is nice for me bc it means i can maintain my rootplush insta and my personal furb insta separately! a net win honestly
it’s up to you whether you want to make a furb-specific insta, or be fubby on main. it’s basically the same decision you’d make for sideblog vs. fubby on personal blog here, and it’s up to you what you want to do!
& i absolutely refuse to let the furby community get taken to bits by this website staff’s incompetence, so im organizing the
Effort for the Great Escape
Furby Haven
we will be focusing on the following platforms
Reddit
Instagram
Pillowfort
and carving out a space for us to be on these sites
i am going go be managing the Reddit Tetrising on r/furby thanks to @tarotfurbyandchill granting me Powers of Modship. ive made flowcharts. its gonna be great
so if you want to aid the effort, or just keep up to date while this goes on, join us here!
thank you, from the whole roost. it’s been lovely to be here with you, and i hope to make our hobby spaces just as amazing as we change and grow
& thank you for the lovely times furblr. heres to many more to come

p.p.s. you can find me on reddit as u/isle-of-misfit-joys
