It's time for the Makers' Secret Santa. This year I'm making a giant animatronic robot Furby for very a special little boy. I used 3D printing, an Arduino and various other electronics, and brightly coloured fabric to make a 'Furby Surprise'. Makers this year are:
@colinfurze
@xylafoxlin
@BeckyStern
@ThisOldTony
@KidsInventStuff
@LOOKMUMNOCOMPUTER
@EmilyTheEngineer
@alispagnola
@BrothersMake

how did you know james, the way to my heart was with an oversized furby. its truly amazing thanks!!! what a project
But where is your video?
@@ClearwaterKB huh? its in the secret santa vid, the last one that went up
@LOOKMUMNOCOMPUTER it's so weird, when I posted that, I didn't see the video. But, it is there now. 🤷♀️ youtube is weird.
75 £ limit, and any animatronic company would have charged someone about 6 to 10 grand for it. 😅
@@intosound913 indeed! but james doesn't charge himself :D
Pink zebra print was definitely the right choice
The furby inside a furby is as cursed as it should be 100/10 would have this in my living room
It's open source so you can make your own!
One day, you must make a colossal furby,@@jamesbruton. Continue the cycle.
@@jamesbruton I just want to know if this new project can have animated LCD (Liquid-Crystal-Display) globe-eyes. I just want to know.
my beautiful wrapping job, bamboozled by german customs :P ENJOY CARBON FIBER IRON MAN sorry it still smelled like lacquer!
Thanks Xyla
@@jamesbruton economy of words😂
Just seeing the helmet on video really doesn't do justice to all the awesome work you put into it!
German customs? I always thought James Bruton is a brit :O
@@TecSanentoDHL is a German shipping company
There is something horrific about a half dead skinless furby inside a large mech suit furby. I like it.
It's a furby dreadnaught...
it’s like if mr. house piloted a large robotron. if he were, i probably would’ve chosen to do his bidding
As if Furby wasn't cursed enough (I remember taking the batteries out of one and throwing it down the stairs while it continued talking).
I have to think those broken glass sounds as you shook the box must have given Xyla a heart attack.
This is amazing and simultaneously deeply disturbing. That huge Firby lurching forward is the stuff nightmares are made of.
I was hoping you'd use that beefy speaker to give it a deep, booming voice that still says normal furby stuff
Like Thomas Farrow?
I like how car central locking motors have shown up in 2 maker secret santa videos so far.
Watching this make me realise why scott from kentucky ballistics doesnt like furbies and always ends up destroying them when he has them in his videos 😂
James' video should have been the first video in the playlist. He spent the most time explaining the whole CZcams secret Santa concept and introducing everyone. some of the other videos just started with no introduction.
Nooooo that's the creepiest model Furby ever! When I took mine apart in 2012, it was extremely grumpy and kept "vomiting". 😆 The newest one is much cuter-- I just did a teardown on my channel. Your giant Furby turned out great, James!
I never thought I'd relate to a Furby, but grumpy and vomiting is just how I'd react to being taken apart.
@@endlesswanderer1753 😆
Thank you for not mentioning out loud that the project files were on your github. My wife threatened me (more accurately, my 3d printer) when she heard the video was about making a giant Furby. 😂👍 Keep making them world a better place!
The forged carbon fiber helmet looks amazing!
the way the large furbys eyes drift apart, so creepy, love it
13:41 "Carbon fiber here as well" yes exactly 😂
I love the fact that you’re not the only person in this Secret Santa to use car central door locking actuators.
I LAUGHED HARD WHEN I NOTICED IT hahah
This was a perfectly conceptualized and executed gift. One of if not my favorite Christmas build of perhaps any year. Well done.
I love how aggressively you pet the furry in the beginning
This is the kind of stuff I want to make once I get my hands on a 3d printer and I get some engineering knowhow
The original battery layout it had was kinda fun. I've never seen a compartment like that.
I love this time of year. This is the first maker video I watched for this year's swap. I always find new makers to follow from these.
I never thought I would see James sewing pink zebra print fur. Such a lot of work went into this.
"Choose the form of the Destructor!"
What did you do, James? James?!?!?
I’m kinda sad I’ve completed the loop. But kinda glad it ended on a video from a creator I wasn’t aware of. I love the channel so far. The furby was pretty friggin cool.
I love the humunculus Furbie! Brilliant and lifts the creepiness factor to a whole new quantum level! Great work!
it’s so cursed. i love it
Very interesting build! We’ve just embarked on building a giant Furby, but ours is going to be based on the 2005/6 version, rather than a Furby Boom, and will only be about half the size of yours. The 2005/6 was the only version with voice recognition & well be using a voice recognition module.
The idea of a Kuato Furby is great
a neat MK2 feature might include Becky Stern's clock feature, following eyes if its not in a talking mood.
This is awesome! Love your videos ❤️ will now do the rounds and watch all the other makers 👍 hope you and family have a great Christmas 🎁🎄🎉
woah! james as always make such amazing things! the fabric you choose is amazing!!!
"there's a bit of carbon fiber in there as well!" had me laughing
It just a bit. Just the entire helmet parts.. ;)
I hope you find a nice sunny spot to display that beautiful gift!
I doubt you’ve ever watched his channel James, but I’m sure Kentucky ballistic would love a giant furbie. He’d look after it real well
Maker Secret Santa sponsored by car door lock motors this year :P. They look like a fun widget, I need to come up with a project to use some now!
Thank you for bringing back the horrors of my childhood. Prepare to be tormented by the Giant Demon Furby.... Btw they eyes on that thing just suddenly going in opposite directions was a nice touch.
I’m not kidding when I say that is the most terrifying thing of this whole secret Santa, including Colin’s fire-fart pants
WHAT IF... Krang from TMNT was a Furby instead? Thanks James, now we know. 😆
Yay Makers Secret Santa is one of my favorite times of year
Love these annual Secret Santas!
Excellent design and execution! It's my first time coming across your channel too!
It going cross eyed is pretty funny lol
I've loved this series every year
Should also had eyes following you 😄
Maybe an idea for giant furby 2.0? Three meter edition!
Fun fact: With the Furby's forward facing eyes, it is technically a predator! 😳
The most furby thing I've seen since the original, bravo
Hey James, I just wanted to drop a "kudos" here for continually disclosing your sponsorships. There is that new hot 3D printing company that is obviously going around and supplying CZcamsrs with tons of equipment so that their printers stay in the spotlight with neither party disclosing the sponsored relationship and it is making the CZcams "maker" community feel scummy. It's ultra nice to come here and hear you be open and honest about your sponsors. Keep up the amazing work.
Thank you for introducing me to car lock actuators 🙌
Its funny how colin used the same car actuators in his project
You were his perfect pick!!! Awesome
Very cool, James!!!
Animatronics is so much fun, nice work.
OMG THAT FURBY HAS A FURBY MECHA PILOT INSIDE
You should include Seamstressed in the exchange next year!
Cool! Though I think you should have given the giant furby a deep bass voice. 😁
The fact this is reborn from an old project's eyes means you could honestly call this a zombie Furby, which is a fitting addition to the horror of Furby
Dude, you've created a Furby Gundam with a Furby pilot. Lol
Oh yeah, she made the Iron Man helmet out of forged carbon.
Hahaha that's exactly what I was thinking when I saw it.
I do appreciate you dissecting it while it was still alive
James you are my hero. What you create is what I want to but never find the time with homeschooling and family duty. Absolutely incredible and a joy to watch. So many of my nic nacks get used then become old so fast. Secret Santa is my yearly release to see the brilliant brains of those who are able to fully use them. Thank you.
You know how when you spin a coin on a flat surface and nearing the end of the spin it is nearly laying horizontally and starts doing rapid wobbles aka Euler's Disk? Maybe you could build some sort of hover craft, or something that uses one or more of these wobbling disks to move around.
The end result reminds me of the Arquillian Ambassador in Men In Black.
You made a true Lovecraftian horror. I love it!
This is exactly what I'm doing now - following the loop from Colin, because his video first popped out! 😂👍
Love all your Creations James but this Furby is 😂
You've made a beast to uncontrollable by man.
That’s amazing!
never thought it would be a hulk buster but with furbies. you are true to your origins mate
Careful with those shipping labels mate. There's some weirdos out there.
Wicked project.
Absolutely brilliant, I just keep wanting to comment on your video. You are simply brilliant.
I love Maker Secret Santa! And with this one, my circle is complete. This giant Furby is definitely cursed. It's ridiculous and I love it! Thanks for sharing!
I love the Krang vibe.
Love the engineering
The fabric reminds me a bit of Diotor from Robot Wars, hopefully not as flammable though! Great build
“Let’s see if we can skin it” he says casually
After listening to that voice for a few seconds, I got some degree of satisfaction every time you said "skin a furbie". lol!
Awesome!!! I wish I had one
Absolutely fucking terrifying 😮
I wish we’d seen James with an apron and a chefs hat on while taking the Furby apart!
Every year I watch the Playlist backwards. It makes more sense, watching a present being made AFTER you see/receive it. Purposely ruining your own surprise isn't my style.
Really love the fur by for look mum no computer it’s incredible 😍😍😍😍
Glorious!
it's just as unnerving and earsplitting as a real furby, well done
Love it! It's like Krang from TMNT! :D
I HAVE FLASHBACKS *by that furby in minute 2* 😂😂😂
Something out of a fever dream
the pink furby got scared while its batteries got removed screaming "no! why are you--" @ 1:52
whoah!.. nice build!..
🃏
bless xyla
Sam is going to love this!!!
At least shipping should be easier!
Santa decided to take it in person
I love youre videos!
This is super creepy and awesome!
How does the original furby react when you drop kick it into a wall, which I feel is my first instinct on viewing the horrendous monstrosity!
that might be the most terrifying thing ive ever seen you made lol
James, not only did you make a giant Furby, you made a giant Furby Kuato. You mad man!
oke thats amazing!
Thought you was going to have benders eyes
Was sad but now I want to know If they screw in like bulbs in true fashion
this looks very cool! I feel like an oversized furby would have a deeper voice tho
This is how a Furby gundam would look like if Furbies could make them
Hi , I am a great fan of your channel. I learnt a lot of things and got success in designing & 3d printing. Thanks a lot man. I am working on an odd project in which i wanted to calculate my laser engraving machine (DIY) laser head movement. My thinking is to calculate pulses of x & y stepper driver every fixed interval and calculate its tangent and add up its values till one job completion . As you are an expert of this subject can you suggest to me if it will work or any other method i have to use.
Great project! I am just worried with the 3D printing designs. It seems like they need a lot of filament to print. Maybe some modifications could reduce filament quantity and print time, while still providing enough strength.
