Well, Vandy's do have some catching up to do compared to the other pets.
And I don't envy that artist's job in trying to capture the furby essence while still working within the bounds of the vandagyre's template. So much of the furby's ...... furbiness comes from the massive eyes and beak all crammed together, but there is actually a faceplate around them! The artist definitely did about as well as they could have without drastically restructuring the anatomy and thus breaking customization.
But yeah it is nice to see some unique toy pets! I always felt a little let down by the molded-plastic action figure direction. One or two makes sense but "toy" as a concept has so much more potential and i'm glad that they're making use of it.
