About this deal

He crouches down on his front paws and stands up straight, his head moves and his facial features show so many different expressions – with his eyes opening and closing, his mouth moving and even his ears moving. Compared to other FurReal toys, the Furreal Friends tiger pet moves quite a lot with different motion combinations and is very animated. If you’ve lost your FurReal tiger instructions, you can find a replacement manual here and if you find your Furreal tiger not working properly you might need to change his batteries. Purchasing via an affiliate link doesn’t cost you any extra, and I only recommend products and services I trust.

I would say that between the ages of 4 and 6 would be the sweet spot with the younger side being the best (I do think that kids younger than 4 would enjoy this too, but since the manufacturers states 4+ on the package, I won’t recommend that to you explicitly). In 2023, Hasbro signed a master licensing agreement with Just Play, permitting the company to take over the FurReal brand. 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? 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. FurReal (formerly FurReal Friends) is a line of robotic pets created by Hasbro and Tiger Electronics in 2002.The FurReal Tiger responds to over 100+ sound and motion combinations, and he also comes with a squeaky toy rubber chicken that he responds to as well.

Children do seem particularly drawn to him and are intrigued by the idea of FurReal interactive pets.

He is fairly heavy at about 4 pounds total, and even though he is covered in a soft fur, there is clearly a lot of plastic underneath, so I wouldn’t describe him as plush. You’ll find the Furreal tiger reset button on his back, so if he’s in sleep mode this will wake him up. Many of the models were designed to provide a realistic pet experience to consumers, without the complexities of actually caring for one.

Read on to find out whether I think the FurReal Tiger was a big hit or big miss before spending any of your precious moolah. Use accessories to feed and entertain your FurReal Friends during the day, then snuggle up with plush FurReal Cubby the Curious Bear at night for sweet dreams together. 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. As far as I can tell, the age restriction is more based on his size and ability for your child to interact than any choking hazards. 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….So when we were sent another toy from the Furreal Friends range, the FurReal Roarin’ Tyler, the Playful Tiger to review I wasn’t sure if it could match up to the high standards that Chatty Charlie had set! The children love that Tyler roars when they roar at him but they have to roar loudly for him to respond. The package does contain instructions so that you know how to interact with Tyler the Tiger and the motions and sounds he responds to. The FurReal tiger does require 4 C Alkaline batteries which are not included (why are kids toys always the obscure C batteries that we never seem to have?

On to what my final review of the FurReal Tiger…I have to say it is kind of a mixed bag on this one. Over the next several years, the brand would continue to expand by adding various new models and species.

Although he holds the chick in his mouth he doesn’t seem to want to eat it – we might have got a vegetarian Tyler or something…! 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. Introduce little ones to creative storytelling and caregiving with these beautiful FurReal Friends toys. Many of the other options are cheaper than Tyler the tiger, and seem like they don’t do quite as much, so keep that in mind. This dog has a leash that can be detached to walk him across the floor as well as a connection to add up to two other Walkalots dogs.
