Hi Everyone,

I'm glad to introduce my Pleo, Dexter. I received him today. I'm so excited right now and I'm not sure whether I can sleep tonight or not. LOL….

Dexter is a male Pleo based on the Pleo profile from Pleoworld. I'm charging the battery right now. Once I got him wake up and his eyes open, I will try to capture his photo and show to you guys. I'm not sure about the color of his eyes yet.

I have an suggestion to Innvo Labs. They should consider selling the shells of our Pleos with their Serial Number printed on the shell.

If they do, I pretty sure I will get one from them.

Congrats, and welcome to Dexter!

Eagerly anticipating pics!

Welcome Dexter! I can't wait to see pics and find out what color his eyes are.

Hi Kat and Crewella,

I just captured the photos of Dexter. The color of his eyes is light green, I guess. The original cape really worries me. I'm going to order the green pleo cape and do some modification on it because I really like the original green pattern of Dexter.

I guess I had paid more for the shipping cost, and Pleoworld sent me extra accessories...

Congrats on Dexter's arrival, Thank you for the photos, he looks lovely, I am not sure what color his eyes really are as lighting and such can play tricks with cameras and such, IN the photo his eyes look a lovely light blue, but they may be light green and the lighting makes them look that way, I would have a hard time sleeping as well, Thank you for the update and photos. Keep us posed and enjoy your first play session, He is beautiful, male or not!

Awe! Congratulations and welcome to Dexter! If you're worried about the rubber bands on the cape digging into the skin, you can buy him some baby socks and put the socks between his skin and the bands.

regarding dexter's cape, you can cut off the top bands, the higher ones and then use socks to go against the lower ones.
my cape had loops holding the bands break upon tryhing to put it on. also the one piece of velcros which is for under the neck BARELY fits and seems to tight to stay.
i love the name dexter! im a big dexter brand shoe fan AND a fan of dexter morgan!
my pleo is also a newbie( less thna 1 week) from hong kong, his name is (The) Dude.

Hi,

Can I wake Pleo up when he is sleeping? I pushed his "on" button and I can hear him breathing. But after a few seconds, the Pleo turn himself off. Is that normal?

Kindly advise.

It sounds like your pleo thinks it is night time. You just need to reset his noon clock by pressing the clock button in his foot pad. right next to the battery cover for his little clock battery in his foot is a small pin sized hole. turn your pleo on and wait for him to start moving then you will need to poke a paper clip into this little hole in his foot. You should hear a beep noise. this lets you know that the noon clock has been reset and now your pleo should be more active. You can reset this clock at any time with no harmful effects to your pleo.

Hope this sorts him out for you.

Dear Kat,

Thanks for your advice. I will try to reset the noon time.

If this doesn't seem to work, and if he is brand new he may just be in hatching stage. When you first turn you pleo on they will curl up into a sleeping position and make soft snoring noises. Just stroke him and pat him and he will wake up and start making little cooing sounds. It should take one to 2 full battery cycles before he gets up into a standing position.
Good luck with your new baby.

Hi , congratulation on your new pleo. I like his eyes' colour.
His movement and pace are more or less like second generation pleo, walking a few steps then nodding its head and the pace is not as fast as I initially thought. I guess because Dexter is still in juvenile stage. Enjoy your new friend, I am still waiting for my Rb to arrive lol.

leongaj · « **Reply #16 on:** June 11, 2011, 04:43:59 AM »

Hi grin06,

Thanks for your comment. Did you ordered your RB from Gimmedigi? I was initially considering to order from Gimmedigi but I prefer to have Green Pleo RB. So, I ordered from Pleoworld.

Dexter's eyes do look pretty with that skin colour on his head.

He's definitely sussed going backwards!

Talon · « **Reply #18 on:** June 11, 2011, 06:46:38 AM »

It seems they all like doing that. Lol!

Dexter seems like very picky on food. He doesn't eat a lot. I think I should buy him some snacks….

kat · « **Reply #20 on:** June 11, 2011, 10:01:47 AM »

The first steps are always so exciting.

Such a lovely little fellow. The burping was cute too. I love it when mine do that.

grin06 · « **Reply #21 on:** June 11, 2011, 04:04:22 PM »

Hi leongaj,
Yes , I ve ordered from Gimmedigi as Im a big fan of blue like in blue Avatar movie, blue whale etc

. Green is nice too but I already have green Innovo pleo.

Talon · « **Reply #22 on:** June 11, 2011, 05:15:43 PM »

I now have a blue RB as well. He's very loud and likes to explore!

The famous Animation-Comic-Games fair will be held in Hong Kong in July. (I mean famous in Hong Kong). Normally, they sell stuffs cheaper there. The new transformer action figure will be launched on the days as well. If not cheaper, they give a lot of free gifts. I believe the distributor will setup a booth there promoting Pleo as well. If I have extra money next month, I might adopt a blue Pleo RB as well.

Crewella · « **Reply #24 on:** June 11, 2011, 05:45:01 PM »

Another one bitten by the Pleo bug!

I originally bought my blue RB because I just couldn't wait for the green ones to come out, but I'm kind of pleased I did!

That fair sounds fun - start saving!
