Furby
Furby stormed the scene in 1998. And it can easily be credited for being one of the most iconic toys of the ‘90s. It was a must-have and it continued its success until the 2000s. These furry toys were able to talk and move their eyes. To some, this toy resembles an owl or a hamster, or a combination of both. To most, it was a loveable cute monster-like companion to play with.
More than 40 million of these toys were sold during the first three years of their release. And its speaking capabilities were translated into 24 languages, which speaks volumes about its worldwide success. During its prime, it would sell for $35. However, the resale value shot up to over $100.
