Pleo Coming To Australia Mid-September

If you’re after a pet without the need to feed it or clean up its little presents, then we have some good news for you: Pleo, the robotic dinosaur that can take on dogs, RC monster trucks and Battlebots, is making its way down to Australia, according to tipster (extraordinaire) Adam.

They’re due to land mid-September, will be distributed exclusively through Ingram Micro and it looks like they’ll cost $449. That may sound a little steep, but the little fella has outlasted the Aibo*, and it’s a dinosaur.

We’ll post more news as it comes to hand. In the meantime, take a trip down Pleo memory lane here.

[Pleo on Giz - Thanks Adam!]

* – I know it didn’t technically outlast Aibo.

    Can’t wait for this to be available as it looks like it will be Tamagotchi & Robo-sapien in one… and I can’t have pets in my unit!

    aww, Pleo RULES! Aibo was just too plastic! Pleo has soul and after seeing the (gut-wrenching) disassembly, I appreciate the engineering inside the little beast :) I want one!!
