How to Change the Batteries in a Furby

The Furby was launched in 1998 and went on to become the No.1 selling Christmas toy for the next two years. The interactive toy went on to sell over 40 million units in 24 different languages. If a Furby begins to talk quietly, fails to respond, or acts erratically, this could be a sign that it needs new batteries. The batteries in a Furby will generally last between 15 to 28 hours of "play."
