I recently saw people commenting that Furbys are better than Labubus. I confess that I find Furbys more charming, but I don't hate Labubus. What about you? Which one do you prefer?

Fumos are better than both, including unofficial knockoffs and non-Touhou ones.

Both of them stop looking at you if you shove them in the drawer (Or the bin), which means I don't have to allow either of them to remain in my line of sight.

I only had a furby (a really pretty one too), so I guess that, although in reality they are both awful products lol.

I had to google it to find out what Furbys and Labubus are ... Why are toys for 3-year-olds so expensive?

@-DxP-

It makes more sense for Furby to be more expensive since it's a toy that moves and talks and you can connect to the Internet, but I don't know why Labubu is expensive.

When you're not looking at your furby, it starts talking to itself sometimes:V

You can play with your furby using the Internet in a specific APP:V

I was too young when Furbies first came out (to me they were nothing but the weird broken toys you commonly found in thrift stores) and I'm too old to care about Labubus (though I do know a few people my age who go crazy about them...). But if we're strictly speaking about my opinion on their aesthetics, I kinda prefer Labubus?

Sorry, dude, I can't help, I grew up with different toys, can't understand the appeal of these two. Where do you even stick a soldering iron there?

Furbys as a toy as a kid always icked me out as to my eye even when presented in a bright and clean fashion on TV commercials they still looked like mutant bird rat creatures. And then it didn't help the matter when whenever I saw them in person at someone else's house they were usually tucked in some dark dusty corner or buried under a pile of other things waiting to deliver an unpleasant surprise with their appearance.

The other I only heard of briefly in passing years later (aren't they much newer, as in only released from sometime in the 2010s on?) and never gave much thought to.

Er... none for me thank you. Oh dear another character minimum I did not reach. A pity, what a pity. I should probably explain my choice though I doubt anyone could find it interesting. Alas, I think it has something to do with the fact that I am too old for such toys, as in I would have never received one as a gift. Combine that with the fact that I don't perceive anything as cute except kittens and Asian women. I know, I know, I'm a monster.

I'm glad to have been pinged for high level discussions like these.

Furbies run on alkaline battery, which requires lithium, carbon, zinc, copper, some plastic etc. Labubu at least exhausts no energy. Seeing as both are equally useless, maybe labubus?

I think Furbies are uglier than Labubus. I have a Labubu myself, so I'm voting Labubu on this.

Nostalgia glasses on, Furby. I hate how they look but in the good kind of way. Also those things had motors and speech unlike labubu as far as I know. Ain't labubus just a collectible to scam kids outta money? Furbies were toys so better
