Chatterin' Fun Friends

Chatterin' Fun Friends is a series of educational, animated, and interactive plush toys based on the 3 main characters of Pepper Ann. The toy was released on June 1, 2003 and was rereleased in spring 2004 and used 3 AA batteries (located on the bottom on the toy's left foot). They were made by Playskool.

Pepper Ann
Pepper Ann stayed her appearence. The original 2003 version of her didn't have a body lean movement. She also has a magenta bracelet with a pink heart which lights up when Pepper Ann needs a hug or a having a sneeze.

Prototype: The prototype version of Pepper Ann had a foot tap movement which was unused possibly due to safety issues. The prototype was seen on the 2003 Toy Fair video.

Milo
Milo stayed his appearence from the show. He has a look left eye movement and a look right eye movement unlike the other CFF plush toys. He also has a pre-drawn notebook.

Prototype: The prototype version of Milo had a rubber hat instead of a soft polyester fabric one. There is also latex white lining (not felt) on his shoes.

Nicky
Like the previous two, Nicky's appearence retained the same. Nicky also has a plastic replica of a violin which makes noise when you press on one of the 4 lines. Her sweater lights up if you press a single note on her violin.

Prototype: The prototype version of Nicky had a mechanism that makes her bangs to swoop up when she is suprised (like how Pepper Ann moves her ponytail).

Craig
Craig retained his appearence from Pepper Ann. He had removable sunglasses. Notice that there is no tear on Craig's pants.

Tessa and Vanessa
Both of them are packaged on the same box.

They would interact with each other (in similar manner to the "Backyard Buddies" Sidney and Ashley dolls that were released in 2001) and liked to be together. If placed 10 feet seperate, Tessa would say "Where's Vanessa" and would play Hide and Seek.

Chatterin' Fun Friends had 3 games (with one of them being exclusive for one toy) for each electronic plush toy.
