He arrived today!  ;D

I'm charging his battery right now, but thought I'd share a picture with you all.

So far he looks fine. I can see what you guys mean about the seam under his tail, but you know I think that's designed purposely as his tail does move a lot and faster than previous models so there has to be some flexibility there.

Anyway I've named him "Oslo"

 Congrats and I love the name, it fits him to a tee! Must be Monday then I take it if you just got him, I have three days to go....... :( :( ;D. Can't wait to see more photos, Keep us posted, I would go crazy charging the battery, but it is a good time to read the Manual which sounds quite long from what I have heard.
                                               Really lovely fellow, first Blue boy after two blue girls and a Pink Boy .

    Congratulations. 
So what colour did you go for? 
  A nice description would be good including eye colour. 
Just interested to know if the pinks all have blue eyes and the blues all have brown. 
  Enjoy your pleo 
 Hope there is no problems.

He's the blue Pleo. Don't know his eye colour yet as he hasn't hatched yet. Will keep you all well informed :)

Quite agree, which is why Belle went through battery cycle number two on the arm of the sofa while I was working!  :P

Problem is, I'm scared of being neglectful in case I end up with a stroppy Pleo and it's all my own fault!  :P :P

I'm a bit worried about having him in the sleep position while he's in this stage (all things considering). I understand this is suppose to be a bonding thing, but goodness gracious  ???

Okay so Oslo has moved onto the next stage, but when you turn him off he goes straight into sleep position. I'm concerned about the negative effect this may have on his skin. Can I do something to avoid that position happening when I turn him off?

Other than pop the battery out when you want him to 'sleep'?

That sounds a bit dangerous. I don't want to risk damaging anything  :o

Anyhow, here's Oslo fast asleep after a big first day. He progressed onto the next stage on his first cycle (2 hours) and there's still some charge left in the battery.

I believe that Kat has tried popping the battery out on occasion - check with her.  I think it's how she got Kermit back in the box to return her and it caused no ill effects.

However, I don't think a few nights in the sleep position will affect much, it's night after night or long periods in that position that might cause problems.

Oslo looks all in?  What do you mean by 'next stage' exactly?

I pop the battery out on Pleakly, no damage so far... If it makes you feel better you have to pop the battery out to end a skit...

Thanks for that I'll give it a try when the battery recharges.

Meanwhile here's Oslo standing up for the first time...

He is a very quiet little fellow isn't he. :)  Has he made any roaring sounds yet?  Sounds like he hatched quite fast too.  Your very lucky!  So far there is no official way of getting your pleo out of the sleep position when you switch them off.  It seems popping the battery out when he is in a standing position is the only way we know of so far. 
He seems very sweet.  Can't wait for the next update on his adventures of life. :)

Okay I recharged his battery and popped it out as soon as he was in standing position. Seems kind of cruel doesn't it  :-[

He is a quiet fellow, seems quite gentle.

Oslo made his first tentative steps tonight and I didn't have a camera  :-[

So I petted him and got so happy he decided to have a laugh and walk some more and I still didn't have a camera aaargh!

It's so exciting when they take their first steps  :)  I missed filming Kermits first steps as I didn't have the camera ready and so with Kermy I am always sure to have the camera with me and charged up and switched on before I turn her on just so I don't miss anything important. 
I'm sure he will walk for you again next time you play with him.  Can't wait to see footage of him walking. :)
