First we had Aibo, now we have Pleo

They have them in Costco at the moment for 99 quid, on ebay they are 145, Amazon, Tesco etc 200 quid

The one on Demo in Costco looked pretty good :D

Cute idea, but seriously over priced..
WTF happens when it tries to walk in that vid lol

it was a star on the aprentace

Not as seriously overpriced as the Aibo was at over a grand !!

and Sony pulled the plug on the Aibo in 2006

The company who made the above filed for bankruptcy in March this year, but the company who manufactured them bought them out

It was either its very first steps or had been manhandled a bit too heavy, if you grab it by its legs apparently it will walk with a limp until it feels better LOL

completely pointless. why would anyone buy one of those????

One meteor and they stop working :D

Gordo, do you have kids ?

Its a toy just like all other toys :D

I tend to buy toys for my 4 year old that appeal to me, I know its wrong, but thats how it is.

I cant wait for santa to bring him his 750 Raptor quad, I know he will enjoy it.
