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!

What Ugobe Has to Say About Pleo and His Functions
The ingenius 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."
