The Best Dinosaur Robot Toy Ever: Pleo!
Pleo the Interactive Toy Robot Dinosaur - Great for Kids and Adults Alike!
Pleo is a new, autonomous dinosaur toy that interacts with users and its environment. Pleo is an innovation in toys, offering a new experience unlike any other toy. It is a baby Camarasaurus, which arrived in the Jurassic Period 150 million years ago...but now has arrived in stores! It's the perfect gift for someone who would love a pet, but can't get one for a variety of reasons. Pleo can also teach a sense of responsibility! Pleo needs food, love, attention, and careful play. Produced by Ugobe, this hit toy is perfect for kids and yes, adults too!
UPDATE: Pleo has been discontinued, but fear not, because Little Inu has took his place.
What Does Pleo Do?
Pleo's features that make him unique and lifelike
This toy has been in production for quite some time and highly anticipated by consumers. Pleo has been a huge hit since it was released just before the holidays in 2007.
How Pleo Works
Pleo progresses in "age" as you play with him. When he first "hatches" (or arrives to you from the store), Pleo is a hatchling, then, progresses into a juvenile dinosaur. Pleo has different stages in its life, and the first time he is turned on, he will interact as if just hatching! As Pleo progresses, he will begin to express himself through noises, ask to be fed, and explore his environment. Some things that you can expect Pleo to do is call for some attention, eat on his own, or snuggle up to you for some love! This isn't a Tickle Me Elmo, this toy has hundreds of different reactions and emotions going on!
Little Inu: The Replacement for Pleo - And, hes's WAY more affordable
Pleo might be gone (except for the high priced versions on this page through Amazon and Ebay private sellers), but Little Inu lives on using the same technology as Pleo once did. Yes, he hatches, he wakes up, he eats, he makes strange noises, he sleeps, he yawns, he yearns for your attention. He is much the same as the good old Ugobe Pleo, except much, much cheaper, and a little bit smaller.

What Ugobe Has to Say About Pleo and His Functions
The ingenious makers of the dynamic new Pleo
UGOBE, the producer of Pleo, says "each one begins life as a newly-hatched baby Camarasaurus, but that's where predictability ends and individuality begins. Like any creature, Pleo feels hunger and fatigue - offset by powerful urges to explore and be nurtured. He'll graze, nap and toddle about on his own -when he feels like it! Pleo dinosaur can change his mind and his mood, just as you do."

It looks like Pleo is switching hands. Not extinct, but he'll have new owners, and a new family. No need to fear! Pleo is coming back in the form of a different manufacturer, Jetta, instead of Ugobe. While that's sad to see Ugobe go, Jetta is the manufacturer of some parts for iRobot and is very well established. Phew!
