I had one of these! This website is so neat! Brings back a lot of memories.

I had a blue furry looking one that did the same thing... lit up and made a wierd sound that was sound activated. I'm not completely sure if it was actually called a Chubbles or not... I want to say my mom said it was a Chiggles... but it did the same exact thing!

It is a Chubbles. The noise it makes is called a Chiggle.

No, chiggles were different, they are cousins of chubbles and not as cute. Harder to find too

The Chiggles were Chubble's little friend and they were sound activated whereas Chubbles was light activated making them "communicate" with each other. The lights going off would make Chubbles beep causing Chiggles to beep. The one photographed above had the Chubbles logo patch on the cloak. When they first came out they didn't have logo patches and later when they became more mainstream they gave them patches. The ones without the patches are worth more. They all came in either red, blue, green, or purple cloaks and Chiggles was fuzzy and blue and only in that color. they also made smaller chubbles that were flocked and harder plastic that beeped too. They were about 4 inches tall.

I still have my Chubble! He's a blue one without the patch, and seems a little taller than my sister's green one.. I also have a purple one I picked up from a garage sale. I LOVE this little guy even to this day!

Holy crap, some how I got on the subject of this and remembered that I still have mine at my mum's house!!!!!

I just found mine today! Their eyes would light up and they were kind of creepy looking! They reminded me of Ewoks.

I had the one (Chiggles?) who responded to sound. He scared the crap out of me! LOL

who made chubbles???

oh my gosh I forgot about these! My friend Robin had one that I was so jealous of, she always had the coolest toys. I thought they were ewoks!

I would love to be able to find a new one.... I had one when I was a child and my husband and I are trying to get pregnant and I would love to find one of my favorite childhood toys for my baby. I would rather have a new than used one, so if anyone finds anything please let me know. Thanks so much!

what i had was called a chiggle. it's eyes lit up yellow, i believe. it was light blue and it responded to sound. i would love to find one now for my little girl, she's three and i believe she would love one. wish i could find out who made them.

I've had my Chubbles since I was a baby (born in '84). I love him! Replace the battery every once in a while & he's good as new, except his eyes don't light up anymore.

I have a red one of these sitting in my guest room. (Still works) Are these worth anything now?

My Chubbles still works well. It has a teal hood and my sister's is purple. They have the Chubbles patch on them. The tag says an Animal Fair Inc. product from Minneapolis, MN.

Are you sure the eyes are supposed to light up? I just bought one from ebay and the attached tag mentioned a light-up nose, but not eyes. With the battery, the nose is the only thing that lights up.

Mine would go off randomly sometimes in the middle of the night. Pretty terrifying for a 4 year old.

I have one too..without a patch and I think it is grey. Maybe it was blue and faded. I love him though!

I still have my purple Chubble. When i was little I always thought they were Ewoks.

I just got a CHUBBLE!!!It'sso cute,I love it.i got mine in a flee Market!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i've a blue chubbles with patch and lable attached they come from chase-a-tail dale,near firefly forest and there mission is to bring love and good cheer! and he makes all who sees him smile!TQ

5/25/08 I also have a Chubbles ..the nose lights up but not the eyes. I see where someone else posted the same and wondered if ALL the Chubbles eyes are supposed to light up ???? Hope someone can be of help here.

I also had a chiggles. It was blue and fuzzy and reacted to sound. I have actually been looking for one so my kids could see it. Anyone know where I can get one? Tried E-bay already. Maybe I should look up chubbles instead - lol. Thanks!

I have a Blue chubbles, he's 24 years old. The tag is still on him and the tag tells you the story of the Chubbles. Chubbles come to you direct from Chase-A-Tail Dale, near Firefly Forest. They are caring little creatures whose mission is to bring love and cheer to beings of all ages. Chubbles live on love and need no special care, you don't even have to feed them.Change in the light around them makes Chubbles respond. The firefly in their nose lights up and the chiggle. This is an amusing sound that's somthing like a giggle. So, tell you troubles to a Chubble. They have no mouths so they can never, never tell. If you keep your Chubbles near, you'll always have love and lots of Chubble cheer. I hope all of you enjoy their story, My 9 year old son love him and his story.. Have a great time with you new friend.

I still got mine even though he doesn't work and he needs a good cleaning. I didn't like him giggling so I cut the battery cable I use to have a band aid on his foot like he was injured. I used to sleep with him a lot when I was a kid. He seemed to keep the bad stuff away. I got another one now still in the box and tagged but it doesn't hold any emotional feelings to me. I also got a duck looking one not sure what it is but its black with webbed feet and a duckbill. I won't ever get rid of my chubbles.

We got 9 Chubbles and 1 Chiggle. Found em all when I was cleaning out the basement storage. I remember gettin' em from yard sales and what not when I was in Elementary school. These Chubbles are awesome! And Baylee likes the Chiggle.

AWESOME!! baylee and A.J. rock!! chubbles chubbles everywhere!!

OMG i still have some!! I have the big light blue furry one and 2 of the little hooded ones. Im going to put batteries in them tomorrow!

I HAD ONE ALSO. IT WAS A BLUE ONE AND HE WOULD GO OFF WHEM HE WANTED TO. I WOULD STILL HAVE A WORKING ONE IF MY MOM WOULD NOT HAVE GIVEN IT TO MY SISTER AND THEN HAD TO WASH IT.

I have still got mine, the blue one. But thought they were called chuggles?!

yes i love chubbles very much. she is so fluffy. i just want to squeeze my chubbles right now. good chubbles. chubbles loves to eat fluffy stuff and candy. i love you old fluff fluff chubb chubbles.

I was tricked by the lure of earing my own cash at a garage sale. My Chubbles sold and then I cried and cried... I didn't really want to sell him!!!! I was not the same person. My cousin and I have been searching and searching for these things, we both forgot what the name was...and everyone we asked didn't even believe that they exsisted. I'm glad to see they are still around and hopefully mine went to a happy home!!!

I came across this guy about 4 months ago in my grandmothers basement after she passed and instantly remembered him. Im 29 now...n that guys got a spot on my bed RESERVED>My wife wants one 2...anyone selling? orlandogetaways/yahoo

The eyes of the Chubbles are not supposed to light up... just the nose. The eyes are the sensors (actually I think only one eye is the sensor). My original Chubbles is blue and has a patch. I LOVED him so much when I was younger that I when I was older I went on EBAY and bid on Chubbles after Chubbles... I ended up with nine now I believe. I had them all lined up on top of my window valance. My nephews liked to throw them all on the floor and make all of them go off at once. Its fun to hear more than one make its noise. They all sound different (pitches and tones) no two that I have sound the same. The Chubbles that I got off of EBAY were all colors and all ages (path vs no patch). I LOVE THEM!!!

I love my Chubbles! I have a purple one with no patch and his tag is still on him (a little worn though lol) I may go see if I can find more, had never heard of chiggles Mine only went off when the lights went out, it was like he was saying goodnight to me :)

I am looking for a chiggle. Thats the blue puffy one right??? My husband had one when he was younger and he was his companion when he was goin through chemo. He has no idea what happened to it so I am trying to find one for him for christmas. If you know of any for sale please let me know. karizzmagrl/yahoo Thanks so much!

I am now 44 years old and have a 4 year old daughter. I just got out my barbies for her to play with and I found Chubbles. She forgot about the barbies, she just wants to play with Chubbles. It even still works and looks brand new. She loves him!!!

I had a Chubbles when I was little. I was maybe three or four when I got it and still to this day I remember it. I think maybe my mom still has it packed away for me somewhere. I have a 2 year old and really wish I could found one somewhere.

I got a Chubbles in about 1984 when I was about 5 and he still works like the day I got him!. I haven't seen any others anywhere with the same brown robe mine has. He also doesn't have the cloak patch so I think it's one of the first ones ever made. Any idea why I can't find any others with a brown robe and cream color body--maybe very rare?

Man I love how i typed in google: "Ewok-looking bear with light up eyes, " and it took me here, gotta love the internet, and good memories!

My sons had Chubbles. They would keep them by their bedroom door, so that the light activated noise would alarm them that someone was in their room. We still have one.

These toy stuffed animals were made by Animal Fair Inc. out of Minneapolis, MN. There were actually several of them. Chubbles was the first, looked a little like a 'jawa' from 'Star Wars', wore a hood and robe came in a variety of colors. I think blue was the most common. Chubbles responded to light, by covering the right eye ( if I remember correctly ) , his nose lit up and gave a couple of chirps. Chiggles came next, looked kinda like a lion ( a picture (http://www.geocities.com/carebearkingdom/chiggledark.jpg) can be found here (http://www.geocities.com/carebearkingdom/chiggles.html) ). Chiggles responded to sound by clapping or whistling by blinking his eyes and giving the same little chirp. Next ( again if i am remembering correctly ) came the miniature versions of Chubbles and Chiggles. I think they both responded to sound by lighting up inside. Also very cool was that they then glowed in the dark. I remember picking mine up shaking him at night just so that i could enjoy the glow. Then there was also Chootles. If I remember correctly he was a bird. Kinda like a big fat plumb crow. Of course he didn't go over well with the public. Plus I think the fad was fading because I remember that they were getting hard to find in the stores ( weren't selling as many ). I actually found my original Chootles at a drug store in Billings, MT in 1988. The combination of Chootles looking like a fat crow and that they weren't selling as fast makes Chootles the rarest of them all. I have no idea to what stimuli he responded to, or even how he responded. There might have even been a fourth in the series, but I can't quite remember. Yes, I had them all, the whole family. Big and 2 little Chubbles, Big and little Chiggles, Big Chootles, and a fourth big one. For a total of 4 big and 3 little ones. And in excellent condition. So what happened to them you ask ? They all came to an untimely and horrific, tragic end. In 1992 the girlfriend, that I was with at the time, and I had a very abrupt and extreme end :fight: to the relationship. Which resulted in all my stuff being throw away in the dumpster. I was not able to recover them. :grrr: :grrr: :grrr:

Anybody know where I can get one? I really miss mine from when I was a kid...lost it when we moved. PLEASE HELP!

OMG these things used to scare the crap out of me! They looked like Wookies from HELL! Their eyes lit up and shook...scary man!

I had the blue one(chibbles?) when I was little & it got thrown out. But yesturday I was looking at a goodwill in a mountain of stuffed animals & found him at the bottom! I'm so happy! I always thought the blue one was the cutest!

I have been looking for Chubbles for over 18 years. I had found one in the late 80's in a thrift store while tweaking and I made it my friend. I would talk to it everyday, until I went to jail and out of all the things I lost, I missed him the most. I just couldn't remember the name, all I remember was it sounded like my nickname Troubles. SO I am sitting here on 3/29/09, do not know what made me think of it, but I did a search, and finally chose the right letters and found him again. I just got done buying one off E-Bay. You just do not know how happy my heart feels right now.

I still have my full size blue, no patch Chubbles from my second birthday in '85. It's a little dirty from years gone by and the tag just says "surface wash." Has anyone found a safe way of cleaning these precious guys? I've got a baby on the way in 10 weeks and I hope she has as much fun wich Chubbles as I did.

I have one with the blue cape! I was trying to explain it to my husband who is 4 years older than me and he did know anything about them. To jen! I would suggest soapy rag that is lightly wet. If that doesn't work you can see if a dry cleaner can fix him up. Oh another thing I have found to work is Peroxide as a soap and put in the sun to dry since the sun is a natural bleacher.

HA! I had one of these, the green one. My mom thought they were Chiggles. I can actually imitate they sound quit we..!!

I had one like the blue thing on the top of the pile in the picture. Freaked me the heck out. I'm still creeped out by the thought of it. :(

I hated mine. I traded my knock off Wrinkles dog, Clifford, for a Chubble back in the day only to regret it shortly afterward. I still miss Clifford. I still hate Chubbles.

I had a Chiggle when I was little...it was my favorite toy. I'm trying to find one for my little one on the way. I've looked on ebay and other sites with no luck. If anyone can help me out, that'd be great.

They look like Ewoks, big time.

i have 3 chubbles 2red no chest tag 1 blue with tag they all work how much are they worth

Just got reunited after 15 years apart from my purple chubbles.....can anyone answer why some have the chubbles logo on the front and some do not???

I received a chubbles when I was staying in the hospital. I sat on my table and when the nursing staff came in at night to take my vital signs and then turned off my light it would scare them. The first few times the nurse went and got other staff members to show them the bear. I still have mine and my dad still has the one he bought himself too! Love these things!

oh man i loved this lil guy i had a mini one i think and it had a moon whistle does that sound familiar????

These little guys are so cute and funny looking ha ha ha lol.

Desperate to buy a purple hooded Chubbles in working condition, my daughter lost hers at the age of 2. She is now 21, and still misses him. Any ideas ?????????????

There are some chubbles on Ebay right now. i just looked them up. Put Chubbles in search engine on Ebay site.Hope this helps

Awww... I remember my Chubble. It had a blue hoodie. Awesome little guys, huh? My cousin got one with a red hoodie and I remember that being our toy that went everywhere with us. Mine is still on my bedside table. I named mine Chub. My cousin, J.K, named hers T.B. She named him Tuberculosis originally, but shortened it. She named him Tuburculosis because our Grandfather said that " those Chubbley things will only bring problems, J.K. Disease from toy makers sneezing on toys, choking hazards from parts falling off! Chubbits, or whatever they are, will be disaster!" Exactly in Gramps' words. Too bad he didn't predict contaminated water for Kitty Kitty Kittens. Oh, and he's the one who bought us our Chubbles. LOL.

chubbles OMG how good does it make you feel when you see a photo of a toy you loved as a kid, my younger sister had one, it made noises and its eyes flashed when you clapped, we actually used to chuck it down the stairs, if i ever saw one i would buy it..aswell as popples, pound puppies and purrys, the best ones where the ones that held babys in them...do you rember?

I still have my Chubble & I love it! My parents only bought me one but it's the one with the red hood & I'm so happy I kept it! Still works too:)

I am almost 59. My daughters are almost 30. I take care of a two year old and would only let her play with our Chubbles for one day. I hate to be selfish but, it is an almost white stuffie after all! Would like to keep it in the nice conditioner it's in. For my husband and I---LOL

was walking past an op-shop (thrift) and my missus saw one (chubbles)in the window and knew what it was immediatly and went nuts! .... went in and brought it for $2.50!, got home and put batteries into it and the sound works but not the light ... still awesome!

i had a chubbles, got a kitten called her chubbles still got her 23 this year in may!!!!

I just moved and me and my husband are consolidating and found my chubbles with no patch but it is brown in color. i remember being scared and then loving the animal. I cared it everywhere for awhile. i guess it is the first of what is now known as furby line.

Does Anyone know or remember BROWN Chubbles. i have one and cant find anything about a brown one with no embroidery

I had a pink Chiggle when I was little but then lost it ... I went on to Ebay last year and low and behold one was up for auction and I won it! .. This one is pink like my old one that I grew up with and is in perfect condition so it's eyes still light up with noise activation - I wil never let this one go as you cannot put a price on your childhood memories :)

i absolutely love chubbles and i got one at a thrift store cause my mom remebered them.

I love my chubbles! After 24 years he still works!

Im pretty sure i have 3 chubbles in my parents attic. Will have to dig them out and check if theyre working etc. BUt if anyones interested in buying let me know. star1emma@hotmail.com

AH! I used to have one of these. Both me and my stepbrother got one for Christmas one year. Mine had blue robe I think. I always liked it. Cany anyone say Furby's grandpa! LOL

I had one when I was little and so did my husband. My husband wouldn't go anywhere without it. One day we were talking about them and he said he wanted one for our middle daughter who had had a tramatic incident happen followed by bad nightmares. He said that his always mad him feel less scared. We searhed for a little online and couldn't find one that weekend we went to the flee market and found one. The nightmare stoped and she won't sleep without it. Greatest stuffed animal ever.

I still have my chubbles. He is dressed in a blue robe! It even works great! I still love my chubbles.

I had a chubbles with a blue rober and a blue chiggles. They were so cute! I think they should make them again.

I had 3 chubbles 1 was pink 1 was yellow and 1 was blue. I was so obessed with them and attached 2 them

I had a purple one, I used to wave my hand across it's nose and it's nose would light up and make a noise. At night while I was sleeping it would go off and I'd end up getting a fright but I still loved it and would love to have one now for my daughter.

I just found my chubbles and i love him. It still works and I hope that when I give it to my daughter she loves him as much as I did.

as kids my sister had one, but though all the move it got lost, last summer I was out yard selling with my kids and I found one at a yard sale for 25 cents I grab up that chubbles... and the coolest thing he still works.. my sister will be geting him for holiday this year.

My sister and I both had Chubbles when we were small. We even named one of our puppies Chubbles (later shortend to Chubba) due to his fluffy hair. I'm not sure how he was lost, perhaps in the shuffle of moving away from home in my late teenage years. I really do miss having mine and I'm seriously considering searching E-Bay for one for my four daughters to share! Ah, memories... :)

Hello. I have a blue one and still have the box with it. If anyone is looking for one to purchase, here is where you can find it. (Go to ecrater asuwishshop) http://www.ecrater.com/p/9628641/vintage-animal-fair-chubbles-in-blue?keywords=chubbles Best Wishes!

I saw a picture of Chootles today online. It's horrific. It looks like a cross between the comic strip character Ziggy and a pastel kangaroo. As much as I dislike Chubbles I can see how some would like them. Chootles is an entirely different story. I'll be seeing that abomination in my nightmares. That thing would drive dread Cthulhu himself insane.

I have 9 of Chubbles, new in the box with the hang tags and working. If anyone would like to buy 1 or all of them, email me at texclown@yahoo.com.

Just found mine out of storage, totally forgot about it. Threw it in a box to give to the goodwill, then went back and pulled it out, put the batteries in it, and it works after about 25 years in storage, with some other stuff. It smells old, but I don't care, I am not going to part with this, mine has a blue hood, and it still sounds too cute. I been looking on the internet, hard to find, so, It's a keeper!

the first ones to come out did not have the embroidered label and I'm not sure if the eyes ever lit up.

Are you interested in buying coin operated horses or spring rocking horses??? They are sold on Ebay. Most spring horses are made by Blazon, Wonder, Flexible Flyer, and Radio Flyer. Feel free to buy as many as you like. Good luck!!! :) Ebay account required.

I recently found a Chubbles doll at a thrift store. I was amused because of the eyes and nose. I have a bumble bee that I called "chuckles" as a small child. He has the eyes and nose that light up/blink as he makes noise (very much like the noise the chubbles make) I have searched for years to find out the maker of my "chuckles" (I don't know if "chuckles" Is an official name or something I came up with) He is about the same size as the chubbles dolls with metallicish raimbow pastel wings on one side and rainbow polkadots on the back of his wings. His legs arms and antenna also rainbow.) He's sort of elaborately decorated. I was born in 83 and I got him when I was maybe 18 months or 2 years old. his eyes light up white/yellow and his nose lights up red. He was made for the "McCrory Corporation"

So cute omg I count sleep without him

I have a chiggles blue mint condition in box if anyone would like him i am selling him :) you can contact me on moynihan00@hotmail.com

Leigh, I have been trying to find a bee. I got one when I was a kid and can't find any info on it. I recall it being a bee and the crinkle wings and the noise after you messed with it's nose! Please help!

I want a purple one that works for my birthday on July 30th my sister had on when I was younger

The pic is NOT a Chubbles- my sister had one just like that when she was little. It was brown and furrier/bigger than a Chubbles. Its nose lit up red and it babbled in a squeaky, robotic way when you waved in front of its eyes. What the heck was it? Definitely not a Chubbles. Any idea?

I have one exactly like the one in the picture that I have had for 31 years. I have been trying to figure out what it is called for a very long time. It does not look like a Chubb les to me. I also would like to figure out what it is called if anybody knows. Definitely does not look like a Chubbles!:)

Hoping for some help and I think Im already on the right track. Im looking for a toy similar to the Chubbles but he is called Giggles. He was about 3 or 4ft tall (I was 7 so could have been smaller) and he was completely fur from head to toe. His eyes were like little lights that blinked (shaped similar to Light Bright Pegs) and he made a beeping sound that was referred to as "giggles" for which Im sure was rather an annoying repetitive sound to adults lol. I looked at Chubbles friend Chiggles and I dont believe that is what Im looking for cause mine had lights as eyes, if Im remembering correctly. The nose may have also blinked and lit up but not sure. The year I got him was 1987. He could have come out anytime within the 5 years or so prior. He was new with tags when I got him so not a hand me down or anything like that. Please help me find him. He is part of my last memory of my grandfather, my favorite person in the world. He gave me this Giggles toy in the hospital, the night before he passed away. My grandma threw him away a few years later when she babysat some kids who came over with head lice. lol. She claimed she was just bagging him up for a while. but he was never seen again...not by me anyways. :(

Well, after all my searching, Im pretty sure I found what I was looking for...and only minutes after posting my comment asking for help. I found thisn 1985 Beeple Plush Big Foot. I remember my Giggles reminded me of a big foot, but I dont recall it having large feet so maybe there were other animals too, IDK. But this one I found on ebay has round lights for eyes which is also right, not oval ones as I said before. So yeah, this is probably what I was in search of, but if anyone knows of any other toy similar to what ive described in this and my last comment, please lmk. Thanks so much!

Its called a Wurble, and I've been trying to remember the name of it for years too. I just bought one on ebay!

I, too, almost bought the Beeple, thinking that was it, but I have always called it a "Wurble", since childhood, but apparently have been spelling it wrong on search engines, wirbil, werbil, worble, and it never picked it up. I just happened to spell it right this time! The picture posted is of an OLD one--hang on to that one. Can't wait to get mine!!

Definitely A Wurble!I'm so glad I came back to revisit this! It has taken me many years to figure out what this was. Thank you so much!

My mom sold the house I grew up in in January, so I ended up with all my childhood stuff that was stored in the attic. Chubbles was in the stuffed animal bin. Unfortunately, it seems like his light sensor doesn't work, anymore. He chirps when I put the battery in, but not when I cover his eyes. Any ideas on if it can be fixed? He's one of the originals, without the patch.
