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
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.
Pink zebra print was definitely the right choice
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
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.
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 was hoping you'd use that beefy speaker to give it a deep, booming voice that still says normal furby stuff
Like Thomas Farrow?
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 😆
I like how car central locking motors have shown up in 2 maker secret santa videos so far.
James' video should have been the first video in the playlist. He spent the most time explaining the whole UA-cam secret Santa concept and introducing everyone. some of the other videos just started with no introduction.
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 😂
The forged carbon fiber helmet looks amazing!
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
13:41 "Carbon fiber here as well" yes exactly 😂
This was a perfectly conceptualized and executed gift. One of if not my favorite Christmas build of perhaps any year. Well done.
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!
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.
The original battery layout it had was kinda fun. I've never seen a compartment like that.
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 way the large furbys eyes drift apart, so creepy, love it
When it made eye contact 👀 my soul left my body.
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 🎁🎄🎉
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.
woah! james as always make such amazing things! the fabric you choose is amazing!!!
I love the humunculus Furbie! Brilliant and lifts the creepiness factor to a whole new quantum level! Great work!
Excellent design and execution! It's my first time coming across your channel too!
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
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
I’m not kidding when I say that is the most terrifying thing of this whole secret Santa, including Colin’s fire-fart pants
a neat MK2 feature might include Becky Stern's clock feature, following eyes if its not in a talking mood.
The idea of a Kuato Furby is great
Fun fact: With the Furby's forward facing eyes, it is technically a predator! 😳
I never thought I would see James sewing pink zebra print fur. Such a lot of work went into this.
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.
Very cool, James!!!
I hope you find a nice sunny spot to display that beautiful gift!
"Choose the form of the Destructor!"
What did you do, James? James?!?!?
WHAT IF... Krang from TMNT was a Furby instead? Thanks James, now we know. 😆
it’s so cursed. i love it
Animatronics is so much fun, nice work.
I've loved this series every year
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!
Awesome!!! I wish I had one
"there's a bit of carbon fiber in there as well!" had me laughing
It just a bit. Just the entire helmet parts.. ;)
Yay Makers Secret Santa is one of my favorite times of year
That’s amazing!
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!
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.
This is exactly what I'm doing now - following the loop from Colin, because his video first popped out! 😂👍
OMG THAT FURBY HAS A FURBY MECHA PILOT INSIDE
Absolutely brilliant, I just keep wanting to comment on your video. You are simply brilliant.
It going cross eyed is pretty funny lol
Love these annual Secret Santas!
the pink furby got scared while its batteries got removed screaming "no! why are you--" @ 1:52
Thank you for introducing me to car lock actuators 🙌
The most furby thing I've seen since the original, bravo
Its funny how colin used the same car actuators in his project
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 UA-camrs with tons of equipment so that their printers stay in the spotlight with neither party disclosing the sponsored relationship and it is making the UA-cam "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.
The fabric reminds me a bit of Diotor from Robot Wars, hopefully not as flammable though! Great build
The end result reminds me of the Arquillian Ambassador in Men In Black.
Love all your Creations James but this Furby is 😂
Should also had eyes following you 😄
Maybe an idea for giant furby 2.0? Three meter edition!
You've made a beast to uncontrollable by man.
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.
Cool! Though I think you should have given the giant furby a deep bass voice. 😁
I do appreciate you dissecting it while it was still alive
“Let’s see if we can skin it” he says casually
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
Really love the fur by for look mum no computer it’s incredible 😍😍😍😍
Love the engineering
You made a true Lovecraftian horror. I love it!
I love the Krang vibe.
You were his perfect pick!!! Awesome
today i witnessed a furby being disected alive
You should include Seamstressed in the exchange next year!
Love it! It's like Krang from TMNT! :D
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.
I HAVE FLASHBACKS *by that furby in minute 2* 😂😂😂
Absolutely fucking terrifying 😮
Something out of a fever dream
It's a creative secret Santa gift, but I'm glad I'm a senior adult, as the idea of a giant furby reminds me of the late night horror films of decades ago like the killer puppets or demonic toys.
never thought it would be a hulk buster but with furbies. you are true to your origins mate
Glorious!
This is how a Furby gundam would look like if Furbies could make them
This is super creepy and awesome!
that might be the most terrifying thing ive ever seen you made lol
whoah!.. nice build!..
🃏
I have a question how did you learn to build such cool robots and how can I learn?
After listening to that voice for a few seconds, I got some degree of satisfaction every time you said "skin a furbie". lol!
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.
I wish we’d seen James with an apron and a chefs hat on while taking the Furby apart!
I love youre videos!
Careful with those shipping labels mate. There's some weirdos out there.
Wicked project.
this looks very cool! I feel like an oversized furby would have a deeper voice tho
it's just as unnerving and earsplitting as a real furby, well done
Kentucky ballistics spends so much time shooting furbies with bigger and bigger guns and you have to go and make a giant one lol
Properly cursed like a Furby should be
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 really hope you included a letter saying "Yo dawg, I heard you like Furbies..."
It’s unbelievable 🎉 great works 😮😮😮
