Bootleg Chooby Doll

Chooby is a Furby knockoff made in China starting in an unknown year, however they started popping around Asian dollar stores around the late 90s and a bit of the early 2000s. It also takes 4 double-A batteries.

Functionallity
After turning it on using the button cleverly placed on its bottom, the Chooby lights up and plays a small jingle.

When you press its belly, it says random phrases (mostly just gibberish) and sometimes spins around and taps its feet, occasionally lighting up in colorful glory. When you press its ears, they wiggle around to random music, and they light up for a while.

When you press its belly twice fastly, it'll make giggling noises implying that it's being tickled.

Differences between Chooby and Furby

 * 1) Unlike the Furby, which is made of, um, fluff, the Chooby is made of cheap flocked plastic.
 * 2) The Chooby does not close its eyes, which is kinda creepy come to think about it.
 * 3) You can easily turn it off by just pressing a button. The Furby needs its batteries to be removed in order for it to turn off.
 * 4) The Chooby lights up, which is not something the Furby does.
 * 5) Unlike the Furby, the Chooby cannot learn English.
 * 6) The Chooby plays loud music and giggles, which is also something the Furby doesn't do.

Trivia

 * 1) Despite being made in China, it's MUCH more popular in Vietnam, where it's sold like hotcakes.
 * 2) The Chooby comes in 7 different colors: Pink/Magenta, Spring Green, Baby Blue, Yellow, Beige, Turquoise and Purple.
 * 3) Even after making its way into the United States of all countries, Hasbro has still not taken legal action against Chooby at all. Not that they care much about Furby anymore anyway.
 * 4) The manufacturer of Choobies are unknown. The back of the box just tells you a poorly-written English description of the toy, and there's not even a manual.
