| Character Information
|
Funzo was a toy released by Kid First Industries.
History
The Funzo toy seemed to have a mind of its own and attempted to kill off all other competition in toys, such as Bart's Krusty doll and Lisa's Malibu Stacy. But many people did not know that the toy was programmed to destroy other toys that kids got for Christmas. Homer went to people's houses to take their Funzo toys dressed up as Santa Claus while Bart and Lisa sang carols to the families. The Funzo Dolls meet their end at the hands of Gary Coleman and the Tire fire.[1] One later appears on Bart's shelf.[2] There is also a Funzo in the attic when Lisa looks for a Simpsons history book.[3] Funzo has 3 voice commands "I see you", "give me a hug" and "Im very mad at boo".
Behind the Laughter
- Funzo is a parody of the Furby electronic toy, which was launched a year before "Grift of the Magi" first aired.
- The scene with Homer stealing the Funzo toys was later seen in the clip show episode "Gump Roast."
