How to Skin (or Shuck) a Shelby (+ Push Start)
I’m not going to lie to you: It was super hard to figure out how to open my Shelby. It took me maybe an hour of solid Google-ing to find any information, and it culminated in precisely one defunct website from 2002 that, upon later Google-ing, I could not find again. I owe that website my life, and if anyone can find it again, I’ll be very grateful. UPDATE: The website has been found! You can visit it right here! Click “Shelby problems” and then “Problem 1”.
1) Peel back the fur
Tumblr media
You may have noticed all the screws on the bottom of your shelb. I don’t know what they hold in, but the good news is that you don’t need to either! Instead, you’ll want to comb through your Shelby’s fur until you find 5 screws: 2 lower on the back, 2 on the top behind Shelby’s ‘tennies, and 1 off-center in front of the ‘tennies. All these screws are slightly different sizes, so keep track of where they all go.
(This Shelby’s screws are very rusty, by the way. Yours probably won’t look quite so awful. They’ll also be very hard to find on shelbies with darker fluff)
Tumblr media
You should be able to pull the fur and it’s plastic backing away from Shelby’s body now. It’s glued on at the bottom, but the fur doesn’t need to come off all the way, so you can leave that alone.
2) Free the shell
Tumblr media
This one’s a little weird: When Shelby is facing you, you will find a screw on the left side of the body, screwed into the shell. Remove this screw and the piece it holds in. Do not repeat this step on the other side.
Tumblr media
Here’s what it looks like inside the shell. The tapered side ends just inside the piece that holds Shelby’s eyelashes/unibrow in, and is only attached by the one screw. Again, completely ignore the matching piece on the right side of the shell. Though it’s the same part, it doesn’t do anything.
Tumblr media
This piece is important to remove because it forms one half of the hinge that keeps Shelby’s shell from opening too far.
3) Remove the shell
You should be able to now wiggle the shell around pretty freely. To get it off, you need to rotate it 90 degrees and lift it over the ‘tennies. Rotating it is pretty tricky, because the fit around the base of the ‘tennies is pretty tight, but there’s a certain sweet spot that lets the shell rotate pretty smoothly. Just keep wiggling and twisting gently and you should be able to get it in the right spot, which looks like this:
Tumblr media
Then it’s just a simple matter of maneuvering the ‘tennies through the slot!
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Congratulations, you’ve done it! You may notice that Shelby looks a lot different from a Furby. Specifically, the speaker, motor, and cam gears are absolutely buried under each other! While it’s nowhere nearly as easy, you can still push-start a Shelby.
+) Push-starting
Tumblr media
If you look in through the top of Shelby’s head, just about above the right eye, you should be able to see the cam. If you’re lucky, one of the 3-ish gears you’ll be able to see has a nub (very similar to the ones I talk about in my sync screw guide) that you can reach with a long, sturdy tool like a flathead screwdriver. With batteries in the shelb, gently push on the gear. Be ready to pull your tool out as quickly as you can, because just the lightest pressure can bring a Shelby out of a coma!
It is absolutely vital that you are gentle with these gears! If you apply too much pressure, you run the risk of warping the gear, and even the slightest scratch or bent tooth can permanently ruin these little bots. Use caution and never try to brute force plastic pieces!

I bought a slow rising squishy to try this with!!!!
FOAM FURBY TUTORIAL
Okay I've seen people make squishy furbies before but I had no friggin idea so I decided to make one out of cushion foam and it actually worked out.
FUN FURBY TIMES HERE WE GO
INGREDIENCE:
Tumblr media
Foam. I tried to find the cheapest foam with the longest expansion time. I found it at Wal-Mart it was like 10 dollars.
Cloth. I used fleece. About 5-7 dollars for 4 feet.
Scizors
Stuffing
Needle and thread
Glue gun
Glue sticks (seriously nothing's worse than forgetting you didn't buy glue sticks when you have everythin layed out.)
Sharpie
A small screwdriver
God given patience.
HOW IT DO:
Skin your furby. Put the skin aside.
Take your to robogut furby and draw the outline of its butt onto the foam with your marker.
Cut out several squares each with the butt outline and stack them.
Tumblr media
4.) After the stack is only alightly taller than your furby shell, cut out the outline to the best of your ability and hot glue them together to make a tower as monument to all your failures.
Tumblr media
5.) Remove the furby's shell and face plate.
6.) Now at this point usually a tutorial will tell you to hot glue your furby's mouth into a position that you like. That's where I say NAY. Im sure you can do this with those little styrofoam sheet sticker things and cut them out but what I did was lay hot glue "bumpers" where the tongue and beak connect. If you do it right you won't end up losing your beak under the face plate later. Let the bumpers dry and try it out.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
7.) Using the scizors (or an exacto knife, I dunno I didnt try it I dont work with foam much) do your best to carve outa vaugly furby shell shape out of your foam tower. It should be roughly the same size and shape as the original shell. Think of it as a new skeleton only but this time its made of matress.
8.) Using the face plate, trace the shape onto the foam.
Tumblr media
9.) G O U G E. Using myfingers and carefully ripping out bits of foam until I cod fit your face plate seemed to work well enough.
Tumblr media
10.) Glue a piece of fabric onto the back of the face plate. Give the moving parts of the face a bit of space to move freely.
11.) Make sure the face pieces can move freely in the cavity you dug out. If theres a struggle, dig some more.
12.) Hot glue the face plate to the foam.
Tumblr media
13.) Laugh for 10 minutes straight because you've created an absolute atrocity lmao what am i even doing with my life?

I kind of wish there was a general bot server, I’ve started collecting random bots and I love to talk about them but I’m relegated to the “other” channels of furby and aibo discord’s
