I'm hoping to get an iPhone 5 and iPad Mini. It's going to be a very Apple Christmas.

Well, I already know I won't be getting an xbox...
The only other thing really on my list this year is a pair of jeans. My last favorite pair came down with a really bad case of hole-in-the-butt and I haven't had a chance to replace them yet.

I don't think there's really anything I need. More pants, I suppose; I hate having to do laundry every few days!
Don't care; I'm a bear. |

Rascii, that's cool I want to get an iPad for my birthday...
Aw... To bad you cant have an Xbox Ghosthande... Lol I have had hole-in-the-butt pants... That wasn't long ago, I was at a tennis game with my friends...
Bearthing, it looks like your pretty new so welcome
And I wouldn't like doing laundry either... Luckley I don't have to do my own yet

I'm hoping to get 'Zelda: A Link to the Past' on the SNES for Christmas.
Ghosthande, what happened? I thought you were going to save for one? And Lisha, there's a 2012 Furby? I remember when they first came out! It was 1998, I was ten, and I had a grey/pink, black-spotted one called 'Coco'. |

I've no idea what I want for Christmas apart from a Furby, it just doesn't appeal to me as much as it used to. I am supposed to be getting a MiFi device for my birthdy on the 14th of December but I'm starting to have second thoughts. £19.00 a Month for just 15 gigabytes of internet data? No thanks!
@Laura: I had a blue and white furby baby that I got in 1999. Unfortunately he broke in 2007 but it gave me a great opportunity to skin him! |

Laura: yeah I am saving for one, I just know I won't get one for Christmas. Chances are I'll be saving up for like 4-6 months. Longer if my laptop poops out before then, because if it did I'd have to replace it first.
Coco's description sounds just like Oontai and Mayla-Ta. I miss my old Furbies...

They're pretty much the same except the one can make calls and is smaller oAo I'm not sure what I want yet..maybe a fancy tablet or something or a bikini for the summer haha.
...furbies! loved those things! Where are mine though?? Actually they helped me rediscover Creatures because I was a bit young (12/13?) when I first played and didn't know what to do..then suddenly this year (now 20yrs old) I had a weird nostalgia of wanting to replay it but had no idea as to what the name of the game was. I remembered Norns looked a bit like Furbies/gremlins so I thought what the hell and typed in "old game with furby/gremlin creatures" in google and believe it or not, someone on yahoo answers requested the same thing and voila! ^_^"

Oh goodness, I remember the Furbies. I remember having three and they were all unusually anti-social with each other and every other Furby they met. I don't have any of them anymore, they got lost during one of many moves, but I remember what each one did. All the first one would do was belch and fart, the second one would constantly sing and proclaim its undying love, and the third one was always quiet unless it wanted "food." Strange little things.
What I would love for Christmas is a working desktop again, and a nice touch-screen monitor that would allow me to use it for drawing, painting, and generally creating some serious awesomeness. (Graphics tablets and I just don't get along.) But the functioning computer is much more likely than the monitor is.
From the depths of Deep Lurkspace I emerge... And suddenly can't remember what it is I came up for. |

An aeroponics bay and the solar panels to power it. I'll never have to buy food ever again!
But seriously, I'll probably ask for some new boots. I've worn my last pair every waking hour for four years. They look the same as they did the day I bought them on the outside, but the inside is utterly destroyed. |

Actually I currently have an iPhone 4S and iPad 1, but the iPad 1 is starting to feel heavy and old (plus new iOS versions don't work on it anymore), and the iPhone 5's taller screen seems nice.

I don't really know what I want. Maybe some new clothes, tea, and eventually I'll save up to get my own laptop and PS3, but prolly not for Christmas.
Oh and books. Books are always nice.

I-I really want an iPod touch. I need it for reasons, though I'll probably wind up saving up for it myself.
I'd also like a soldering kit, an electronics book, and some old toys/cheap Christmas animatronics to experiment on. I can't help but want the new Furby, too. We're all falling victim to this, aren't we? I feel like the new ones cost twice as much as the first ones did, but I could be wrong. I was just a little thing back then.
Ah, the collectors edition of Creatures 4 would be neat, too (I want the figurine and golden eggs, hnnnng). I could give the first three games to my niece, who has come to love the series through my influence! Mwahahaha! My nephew would enjoy that too, if only for the sake of "doing science with Grendles".

I've wanted a bicycle for a couple of years now. How juvenile does that sound, lol? But hey, it's a mode of transportation...
Other than that, I'd really love to be back home for the holidays. This will be my second Christmas on the west coast of the US after moving from the south east US in late 2011. I keep in touch with all my family, but I miss them dearly.

Wow, a few of you guys have had the old Furbys
I had the 1998 ones to, I found out about them because my friend had bought over some of her old toys, and one of them was a red furby with I think and orange belly...
He broke and I don't have any of the old Furbys anymore... I did have a baby furby not long ago, but got bored of him and sold him to my dad to buy minecraft Xbox xD
I regret that now...
Wish I kept my little Furby baby... He was Blue With a pink tummy I think...
Have you seen the 2012 ones yet Laura?
Just search in Google: 2012 furby xD Or look on YouTube...
And I cant believe some people think Furbys look creepy!
Am I the only one that thinks they look cute? xD
Sorry, that was a bit of topic...
EDIT: Yeah the new Furbys are twice as much as the old ones... There normly 60$ but my dad got mine for 100$ xD

Is it just me, or does the "new" Furby look identical to the original one that was released like 50 years ago? I can tell the eyes have been slightly updated, but considering the amount of technology changes that have occurred over the last decade, I'm surprised they're not more "new".

Rascii, the new Furbys don't look like the old ones to me xD
I think they look cuter... And they move and dance to music now There fur also looks like a different type of material... You can also talk to the, but they don't know what your saying... Or do they?...

Yeah they did update the fur and ears too..plus if you're like me, any update to a character must still allow them to look a lot like the original, hence why I'm a bit bleh about C4 lol But omgz they look so cute! Don't even know if my country will have them though $100 is like 700-800 bucks here! Eeek!

*bumped in the spirit of Christmas 2014*
So, what does everyone want from Santa? (or whoever they may receive gifts from if they celebrate a gift-giving/receiving holiday at this time of the year)

I'd like my parents to choose some charms for my Pandora charm bracelet. It'll be meaningful that way!
Most importantly though, the opportunity to share the holidays with some good company! I feel lucky to be spending this Christmas with my boyfriend and his folks. My parents aren't really big on Christmas, and we don't have any other family to spend it with so to speak, so they're going away this year in their caravan. |

I've thought a lot about it and I don't know what I want. Probably just going to get some nice discounted games on Steam.
And maybe a Claptrap figure. |

I'm getting a Nintendo 3DS,and my mom decided that it's better if we know what our presents are,because that minimizes the risk of getting things we don't want. |

Mostly money towards the gaming computer I'm saving up for, though Wind Waker HD and a pair of these are also on the list. Actually, now that TrellyDawn mentioned it, more books IS a pretty good idea.. |

An animal of some kind. Man I'd love to have a couple of rats, a little birdie... or a puppy. I know I won't be getting any pets though, it just really wouldn't be good timing.
Otherwise, I don't really have much I'm hoping for.
...just noticed that it's been two years and I still haven't replaced those jeans.

Hmm, the stuff I want for Christmas isn't that much different from the stuff I'd want on any other day, really. Delicious food, a cat, affordable medicine, a Cintiq, a laptop that can do word-processing and have Creatures running in the background at the same time, trousers that fit me perfectly, books, documentaries... Lots of books. |
