I made this cute picture using @ColoringW 's (on twitter) free coloring page. Overall I like the 80's anime intro vibe this gives me.

@seafritter is so fantastic at drawing Doffy, I am in LOVE!!! I need to fix Doffy up so that his arms and wings stop falling off, omg. He’s so precious, and I love him to death.

Update on blue Tonkuri: The glue i used didnt work bc I was stupid and used gorilla glue, which isn't made for the sort of thing in trying to use it for. So I'm waiting on some Epoxy glue that will hopefully hold up better!

Also it turns out his pet sensor button is broken :_( I have a replacement microswitch , so I'll be trying to solder it to the board later. And he's having synchronization issues that I haven't been able to fix yet by readjusting his sync screw.

Also, the wire INSIDE his speaker was rusting, and while I was trying to move it aside, the wire broke off :( so I'll have to replace his speaker too.

I have him temporarily reassembled until I can finish his repairs.

MSA Cure Guide

I’ve seen so many rumors circulate about how MSA isn’t curable, how MSA is something that is absolutely a Furby owner’s nightmare. Have you wanted a cure for your exhausted little friend, but not even known where to start?

I have the guide for you. Most of this is rehashed from Furbytech’s MSA cure guide but since it’s not easily found (it took me several days of searching ‘MSA’ to even come close to a redirection post) I figured I’d make something accessible, or spread the information.

Let’s get right into it, shall we?

Step one: Skin and de-shell your Furby.

I’m not going to go into how to skin your Furby here.

Step two: Locate the tilt sensor.

The tilt sensor is what makes the rattling sound inside your Furby, the mechanism that wakes them up! When this is dirty, that is the most common cause for MSA. MSA, as far as I know, is a programmed response to dirty sensors. Cleaning the back and stomach sensors is recommended as well when following this.

Step three: Pry that sucker open.

The sensor is generally easy to open, don’t be afraid to remove the hot glue sticking the metal piece to the cap, that makes it easier to leverage out. Be careful with the metal pieces inside! There are two parts to pull out once the cap is undone.

Step four: Remove and polish.

The tilt sensor ball must be taken out to polish. This can be done with tweezers or your hands, it doesn’t really matter. Polish the ball and the metal discs with a Q-Tip or cotton ball. (one disc is hanging by a wire outside of the sensor cylinder, one still inside the cylinder. The ball bounces between each one to create the tilt disturbance.)

Step six: Replace all parts by following these steps in reverse.

No need to hot glue or fasten the materials in unless you feel like it’s necessary. Test your Furby before putting it back together, just to make sure their MSA is gone. If you try this method and it does not work, again clean all of the sensors. Something more could be wrong, or it could be that some fibers of your Q-Tip or cotton ball are stuck to the sensors! Be very careful with your materials, but this should work otherwise.

Best of luck to you and your sleepy Furbies! Normal sleepiness is 1-3 times of the Furby saying they’re going to sleep again. 8-15 times of the Me Sleep Again is more of the area where you would use this method. If this does not work, please contact me either via reblog with details, or shoot me an ask. I will be glad to help!
