Weird thing about the official Russian Furby website that was once up (furbyrussia.ru) is that, the look of the website from back when the website was promoting Furby Boom in 2015, reminded me so much of a few unofficial Russian Furby websites I had seen which were selling Pixies and Furby Booms. I don’t know if the unofficial websites were trustworthy. 

furby.990.kz, furby-pixy.ru, and furbi.ru were websites that were selling them, but two of them didn’t have their images archived, and another one was never archived. I didn’t think of archiving the websites back then.

Sometime in 2021, I was met with this page when I visited the website outside archive.org. Before the website was like this, Furby Connect was being promoted on the homepage, and the website had a separate page for Furby Boom. The webpage said the website’s setup wasn’t complete; it said that only the domain (furbyrussia.ru) had been registered, but the website owners needed to create the website and host it somewhere. Maybe the hosting plan had expired? I don’t know.

This archive.org capture is from July, 2021.

I’m not sure how long the website stayed on this page for until it went back up. When I revisited the website at some point, this was how the homepage looked:

This archive.org capture was from August, 2021. 

No images or CSS present. Just the page’s text, and for some reason, the website was talking about Furby Boom instead of Furby Connect.

 While furbi.ru and furby.990.kz look like this on the Wayback Machine, I saw the official Russian Furby website looking like this outside of the Wayback Machine. The website was looking like this in 2021 and 2022.

If you try to visit furbyrussia.ru now, your browser will stop you and tell you that you’re visiting a deceptive website. I don’t know what’s happened to the domain, but if you choose to visit the website despite the warning, you will be redirected to Google’s homepage (not a phishing website). However, I don’t recommend doing this, incase the link takes you to a malicious website at some point.

Visiting a capture from late 2022 will cause archive.org to refresh itself continuously.

Sure, they’re no longer keeping it running and it’s been almost 10 years since the website was first captured on archive.org, but I just think this website’s behavior is weird. 

Whoever is running Hasbro’s website decided to allow furby.com to redirect to a page at apps.hasbro.com, so I think the Russian website’s address should’ve been dropped completely or at least been used to redirect you to Hasbro’s Russian website.

A capture allowing you to visit the official Furby Boom and Furby 2012 Russian websites can be found here. I didn’t capture this website on archive.org, btw; other people did.

What are your thoughts on ISAT's magic system?

AUTISM BLAST

okay long rambly post incoming. for the record like 90% of this is pure unfiltered headcanon. and almost all of this is about colors. sorry if this is hard to follow!!! i need to get this all out of my system.

oh also! a lot of this is based on a really good post by @/chronologically-challenged that shows off the differences between each character’s craft style! go check that out it’s really good

okay!! so!!! colors. this is just my own thing, but i personally like to color code the different types of craft!

don’t worry about those middle tones yet just put a pin in those

there’s still a little bit of color variety within craft types (for flavor), but generally, rock is blue, paper is yellow, and scissors is red. i’m not going to lie to you i only did this because the splatoon testfire had these colors. it’s also why my triplets designs are colored like that!

i think these colors also just fit the descriptions of these crafts? red feels like a more aggressive and active color, which matches how piercing craft is generally more focused on dealing damage, blue tends to be calmer, which matches protective craft being more supportive , that kinda thing. something something children’s hospital. yellow is a bit of a wildcard here lol, it just looks nice with the other two.

putting aside the colors for a mo! don’t worry those’ll come back soon. i’ve also been thinking a lot about how dual craft types work, though this is a little more speculative. i’m entirely basing this on how mira works. basically, one craft type seems to be more ‘dominant’ over the other. while mira is both paper and scissors, she’s still weak to rock, her basic attack is scissors, and her scissors skill (jolly round rondo) does much more damage than her paper skill (artsy silent burst). she behaves more like a scissors type, with an extra affinity for paper. which i think is interesting!!!

in terms of colors, i think this would manifest as mira’s craft being tinted orange, as a mix of both her craft type’s colors! this is partially what those uncategorized colors are for. while her scissors attacks are only slightly tinted, her paper attacks would be a lot closer to orange! and this would apply to other dual crafts as well. a rock/paper type would have more greenish attacks, a rock/scissors type would have more purply ones, etc etc.

i think this color mixing would also apply to single craft types trying to use a craft type that isn’t their own, though it’d prolly become less pronounced the more a person ‘gets used’ to using that craft type, so to speak. in a while rockodile would be pretty solidly purple, while rock bottom is more of an indigo color, and odile’s craft skills probably only slightly tinted as well.

ok!!! that was a lot about colors. i’m really fucking normal about colors. onto craft styles!! this is still kinda about colors tho sorry. also, again, go check out @/chronologically-challenged’s post if you haven’t already, it’ll prolly explain this better than i will

for a tl;dr on that post, each country has a different way of using craft. the forgotten island has lightless craft that tends to manifest as stars and zigzags, vaugarde has big, rounded bursts of grey craft (with smaller circles around it), and ka bue’s craft is more diamond shaped/triangular and tends to be on the lighter side.

this is also the part i’m a little less sure about. i haven’t drawn these out in my normal style!! so a lot of this is subject to change. sorry about that!

anyways. i wanted to preserve the island’s lightless craft while still making it colorful, so i decided to give it a sort of. halo effect? i guess? i wanted it to vaguely resemble the ring of light around a black hole or a solar eclipse, but that is a lot harder to do with the zigzag shape of the craft + my color limitations. and as i’ve recently learned, glow effects look really weird with my pixelly art. so this is all just flat colors 😓

shhh don’t mind the art here i’ve totally posted it before 🩶

vaugarde is pretty simple comparatively!! the craft is a sort of midshade ingame, so i just made the main color the normal craft colors. not much to say here!

and ka bue is in a similar boat! i did kinda draw it in my odile sprite redraw, but i didn’t really look at references so it’s kinda boring looking there. not much to say here either!!

and!! as we can see from the king’s special attack art, craft styles can kinda mix together. king’s style follows the general shape of vaugardian craft, but keeps the shade and stars from the forgotten island! i think it’d be fun to play with that a little more teehee. i imagine these are a lot more variable depending on how engrossed someone is in a culture, hence why odile’s craft doesn’t borrow from vaugarde’s style. unless she does? it’s not like we see other ka buans using craft in game. who knows.

also because i forgot, some extra bonus doodles of that craft color mixing i mentioned earlier! yipee!

and that’s it!!! there’s probably some other stuff that i am. currently forgetting. but this post is absurdly long enough!!! thank you so much for the ask i’m so sorry for autism blasting you about isat and color theory. am i still cool. here’s all of my craft doodles as compensation for reading this giant infodump. i’m so so sorry.

what your favourite dunmeshi ship says about you

farcille: you're classic, you make sense, you like to see the lesbians winning and also you're a bit of a monster fucker: you may or may not specifically have a wing kink

chilshi: you like your men hairy and fat, also you are not immune to panty-shot propaganda, your love language is acts of service

chilaios: you have a size kink

labru: you prefer mlm ships over any other pairing, you think character foils should fuck, you may be a sucker for blue eyes

laimar: your favourite trope is friends to lovers, also you like to see the bisexuals winning, you're also.. what the poets might call.... weird

marchil: your favourite trope is enemies to lovers, your love language is banter, and you're the kind of person who says 'i can fix him' far too often

kabumisu: your ship could burn down the world and violate the geneva convention and you would still call both of them babygirl, also you like angst

laios x monsters: you like tentacle porn
