Pleo is a new, autonomous 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.

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."

Pleo Goes Extinct, Then Comes Back to Life from Jetta 

Ugobe goes under, Jetta comes in!

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!
