When raising the veil, "This is a furby organ," there were furby-ridden organs there.


You can see that the colorful furby is lining up.


In addition to being able to speak and sing as usual, these Furby can also play melodies according to the performance of the keyboard. If it sees closely, the organ is a 44 key type, so it means that one furby is assigned per key.


The main switch is named "Collective Awakeing Switch" (collective awakening switch) and a stupid name in order to sing a "living thing" Furby.


Raise the collective awaken switch and ...


Furby began to speak neatly. This is serious.

It seems that in-depth research has been conducted to make it work properly.


On the main body of the organ, there is a slurry for adjusting the volume of each musical scale and a dazzling knob.


The performance ended with a spectacular shade. Until the end of the last Furby 's strange sounds "Uga Uga", but this may be an interesting instrument ......
