Ugobe, the makers of the $350 robotic dinosaur “Pleo”, have filed for Chapter 7.

   Well, no wonder. Though kinda cute, it’s really silly.

   Best headline in recent memory.

   Very sad. I have one. Always wanted it and now it just collects dust in the corner although every now and then I power him up and realize how technically cool he really is.

   You know, if you really do want one, the prices have been slashed down to $100 on Amazon.

   Huh, forget I said that. Looks like the price jumped up to $200. Glad I got an order in while I did!

   they need to scale it up to a huge sort of all terrain armoured transport and sell them to an evil empire.

   $100 you say, i may have to buy.

8. [monstrinho_do_biscoito]

   no pleos on amazon for $100, but i did find some “in memory of Pleo” dogtags. pffft.
