Fur… Berries?

by

Regular Toy Bender reader Quincy sent me a link to a toy that he had some part in creating the Fur Berries. Uh… yeah… check out this commercial…

Far be it to me to criticize Quincy’s work, but I really hope he had no part in the naming of said Fur Berries. I mean… that joke writes itself. I’d like to think that whoever created the name did so only because he or she knew that I’d giggle like a eight year old when I heard it.

They seem pretty interesting for a small kid, but for me the eyes are a bit too much. It’s like they shoved them into a cute machine on full throttle. What do I know, though? I’m not a little girl, though I often wish I were. By the way, I have no idea what a cute machine is, but I want one.

Anyway, good job Quincy. I’m sure that children across the world will love your Fur Berries. You can sleep well knowing that millions of children will cherish your Fur Berries when they wrap there arms around them and fall fast asleep, dreaming of adventures staring your soft, cuddly Fur Berries. After all, nothing beats a nice pair of Fur Berries on your face to keep you warm at night.

One final thought: The Fur Berries kind of remind me of Popples, but not as retarded looking:

    I wish my dingleberries smelled like strawberries.

    Oh, sorry, what? “Fur”-berries? Oh. Ok.

    I guess if you could fold in on yourself like that you’d want to smell fruity.

    It kind of reminds me of a SNL skit w/ Will Ferrell: http://www.geekarmy.com/babes/Will-Ferrell-Doing-Yoga.html

    GWS stole my dingleberry joke. These things are pretty awful, but not as awful as The Stuffed Dog That Pees http://astrangelife.typepad.com/a_strange_life/2007/11/this-is-toy-to.html
    Toys are way stupider than when I was a kid back in the stone age. I’m ignoring your desire to be a little girl too Paul. It’s just too creepy.

    Let’s be fair now, I don’t think these things are in any way awful. I think they are a bit silly to be sure, but not awful. Awful is the robotic horse that’s 200 bucks.

    I think they are quite retarded compared to the Popples, and I think American Greetings should sue.
