About

The Φöbby (perhaps intended to be pronounced 'Furby') is a novelty camera for 110 film, made in China for the Japanese Powershovel/Superheadz brand. The name Φöbby also appears only on the card of the pack (in all examples seen), and the camera is widely referred to as the Ikimono keychain camera; 'ikimono' (生き物) is Japanese for 'animals'. Two of the characters (the cat and hedgehog) also appear on the Ikimono Flash 110 cameras sold by Superheadz.
