Product Information

Custom Pet Cat Dog Clone | Personalized Pet Lover Gift | Custom Stuffed Pet Dog Cat | Custom Pet Plush | Pet Loss Memorial | Christmas Gift If you’re looking to get your child an interactive toy that can be just like a real exotic pet for them then the Fur Real Roarin’ Tyler, the Playful Tiger from Hasbro would be a great investment and a lovely addition to a gift list. He’s turned into a real part of our family and he’s often found sitting with the kids, snuggling up and watching TV with them. He’s the sort of toy all children would love and one that siblings can easily share too. The FurReal Tiger would be a great alternative for a child who cannot/does not have a living pet that they can play with (or perhaps they are not gentle enough with a real pet….I can see Tyler the Tiger being a good training ground for teaching that). Over the next several years, the brand would continue to expand by adding various new models and species. The toys from this era are notable for their realistic appearance and behavior. Many of the models were designed to provide a realistic pet experience to consumers, without the complexities of actually caring for one. Commercials and press releases from this era emphasized the realism of the toys and frequently compared them to real pets. Disclosure: We were sent the featured products for the purpose of this post however all opinions are my own.

[3] The new wave of FurReal toys from Just Play are set to unveil in 2024. Fisher Price made a Smart Toy Panda (and an another animal that I can’t think of at the moment) a few years ago, that learned about your child the longer you had it and would respond when you talked to him. I had bought one for my little brother. However, they got rid of it and his accessories shortly after that Christmas he came out. I think you might still be able to find him at discount retailers online. Tyler is definitely more engaging and interactive than a stuffed animal for a child – and who needs another stuffed animal sitting around in their house? It has pose-able legs and a soft fur covering makes him more pet like than other plastic options out there.FurReal Roarin’ Tyler, the Playful Tiger How does the FurReal Tiger compare to other interactive toys? Little animal lovers will adore soft toys and accessories from FurReal friends. These FurReal Friends companions are perfect for kids who’ve always wanted a pet of their own. If you have any of the FurReal friends, let me know in the comments below what your thoughts are. I’m interested to hear! Also, let me know if there’s another toy or product that you would like for me to review next.

Super annoying for parents – sorry, but it just is. It will continue to randomly make noises and move even after it’s been left alone. It can scare the carp out of you if you walk into a dark room and Tyler starts roaring or purring (It reminded me of the Furbys we had when we were growing up that would not stop talking. I remember hiding my Furby in the closet because it wouldn’t shut up!) It does have an off switch though – Thank you for that Hasbro! Tyler the FurReal Tiger is really adorable with his big blue eyes and the motions he makes to drop down and look up at you.

Keep collections to yourself or inspire other shoppers! Keep in mind that anyone can view public collections—they may also appear in recommendations and other places. Some children may actually find Tyler the Tiger frightening. My nephew was scared of him, and it took awhile for him to warm up to him…something to keep in mind depending on your child’s temperament. The children love that Tyler roars when they roar at him but they have to roar loudly for him to respond. We have had most success when Dave has roared as the children can’t roar at the right level for the interactive tiger toy to respond. But, if they talk to him and play with him he responds to everything they do.
