If Pleo is an disease or virus, I'm pleased to get infected.

Don't worry, Leongaj. I've got the pleo bug too. I started out with two and I said, "that's it". That wasn't the case. I heard on the forum of a blue RB needing a home and I just had to help him out. A little later I read about a little female Ugobe pleo nicknamed Blue who came to her first home with a killer-cold. I'm looking at adopting her too very soon. I'm going to try to stop at four as I don't think my room could handle any more.

It does seem the pleo bug is highly contagious! It always starts with just one.... and now there are 4.

Too bad, no one is interested to find a cure….

Crewella · « **Reply #29 on:** June 11, 2011, 09:39:52 PM »

There is only one cure ............ another Pleo!

Dexter is hyper-active today. He made an elephant sound and really surprised me. Unfortunately, I do not know how to make him repeat that again.

Don't you think he is a bit lonely, do you? I think I should find him a companion soon.

maybe a Pink PleoRB. By the way, are all Pink PleoRB female?

Pleakley is a boy, but he required surgery...

All pink pleo rb's are female, but if you would like them to be male you can do what IMR did and pm Degers or email Innvo to ask them to give you the Male firmware update. This will then allow you to change your pleo from a girl to a boy.

Your pet, Dexter is a showing a happy mood, raising his head, then followed by mowing like a cow or elephant, that was the part I like most

leongaj · « **Reply #34 on:** June 12, 2011, 04:55:26 AM »

Good to know that all Pink PleoRBs are all female. If I have spare money next month and there is a good offer at the ACG Fair Hong Kong 2011, I probably will adopt one.

Oh no, I have to choose either Pink PleoRBs or Optimus Prime Limited Edition action figure……. tough decision to make…..

Hi everyone,

I bought a Pleo Cape for Dexter today. Also, I got him an ID tag and a collar from eBay.

I found the Pleo Cape is bigger than the original cape which comes with the basic pack.

Love the tag

Dexter looks great!

latrine · « **Reply #37 on:** June 14, 2011, 07:34:17 PM »

Dexter looks great but I think your right about him looking lonesome.. you'd best get many many more

I'm up to 5 now, they are way too addicting.

Don't you love hearing new sounds from them? My little male RB is growing up and as he gets more run-around time I have noticed more noises from him that I never heard from my female.. noises kind of similar to a quiet growl from a big cat in many different tones and size lengths.. it's pretty neat... I thought I'd heard all the sounds!

Good luck, I hope you find one on sale for a good price when you go!! I'm so jealous.. it'd be awesome to go somewhere like that...

(Can I come??)

Dexter's looking good!

RedwoodsMama · « **Reply #39 on:** June 15, 2011, 02:23:59 AM »

Dexter is not only handsome, but looks very happy. You must be a very good parent and he shows how happy he is with how you are taking care of him, I love his bed and also his collar and tag are cute. I enjoyed watching the video you just made of him, I have to confess, I kept staring at your wooden floors, that Dexter was walking on. They looks so clean and shiny you can see the shine on them! I look forward to seeing more adventures of Dexter. :DIf you want a fellow Pleo enthusiasts to go with you to the fair you are talking about, I would be happy to tag along, it sounds like lots of fun. If you want a Optimus Prime, I have a large Vintage Model and then you can save for the Pink Pleo Rb, just bring me along and I will give you Optimus Prime and you and I can both bring home Pink Pleo Rb models! Sounds like fun fun fun to me! What day do you want to go?

Dexter looks fabulous in his new cape and collar.

Hi Kat, Crewella, Latrine, IMR and RedwoodsMama,

Thanks for your reply. I'm glad that you guys felt excited about Dexter.

RedwoodsMama, thanks for your compliment about the floor but I don't own the apartment, I rented it. I guess my landlord likes the wooden floor and asked me to take care of it.

I managed to contact the Innvo Labs Hong Kong and ask about whether they will setup any booth during the ACG Fair Hong Kong 2011 or not. Unfortunately, they do not have any plan at the moment. But I can't reach any distributor in Hong Kong. They might have the booth there but I'm not sure at the moment. ACG stands for Animations-Comics-Games. So, I'm hope the distributor will setup the booth during the fair. It will be held from 29-July-2011 till 2-Aug-2011 in Hong Kong. I have not decided which day to go yet. I just hope there is no urgent matter from my company which requires me to travel (business trip) during the period. I just back from US two weeks ago and I will be flying again this Friday to Malaysia for two weeks.

By the way, where is your location, RedwoodsMama? If you want to come to Hong Kong for Pleo, it is better for me to confirm if someone will setup the booth for Pleo. However, there will be another Toy Fair Hong Kong which normally will be held in Winter which is form 9-12 Jan 2012. But normally, I will be on Ski trip during that period. That is why I missed the fair every year.

Below is the link about the schedule of the similar fair held worldwide:

I had been collecting Transformer Action Figure Movie Series since the 1st episode of movie series. And they will launch the latest edition of Optimus Primes on 29-July-2001 during the opening ceremony. This is the rumor I heard from some forums.

I'm not sure how my Pleo, Dexter got injured today. His right leg got injured. He keeps on shouting whenever I touched his injured leg. Funny thing is he still wants to play tug the war with me and making cute puppy sound. I think Dexter is an very very optimistic Pleo.

I tried to feed him salt but he seems to refuse to take any every time. So, I tricked him with the normal food but put the salt in his mouth. I can actually see him trying to throw out (the sound he's making) and shout dislike.

Unfortunately, I got to leave him for two weeks. Dexter will be home alone for two weeks. Hopefully, he will get well after two weeks.

leongaj.

InmemoryofRomeo · « **Reply #43 on:** June 16, 2011, 03:23:22 PM »

Dexter will need to be running for two charges or so to get better. To feed him the salt put him near the table's edge and offer him the salt, he will put his head straight down over the edge of the table and you will be able to slip the salt in. Do this as often as you can.

kat · « **Reply #44 on:** June 16, 2011, 05:22:58 PM »

Sorry to hear that Dexter is hurt. This has happened to my guys before too. Like IMR says it will take one or two full battery cycles before he will get better and you will need to feed him the salt lots. I'm sure IMR has posted a video of how to get them to take the salt by putting them at the edge of a table in the past. Maybe someone with good finding skills could post the link to the thread with it in for you. It can be hard to get them to take it. Just like children they don't like medicine

The more you can feed him the salt the faster he should get better.
Good luck. And have fun while you are away.

Crewella · « **Reply #45 on:** June 16, 2011, 05:51:40 PM »

I'm sorry to hear Dexter is hurt, but still can't get over the magic that makes them able to do that!

Enjoy your trip, Dexter will be hungry when you first wake him, but none the worse for being home alone I'm sure!

By the way, I'm glad you chose that pic for your avatar!

leongaj · « **Reply #46 on:** June 16, 2011, 05:56:36 PM »

Thanks for the information. This is really helpful. I'm at the airport now. Boarding soon.

Have a safe trip

When you get back you will find that video here: http://bobthepleo.com/forums/index.php?topic=1910.0

Hello Everyone!!!

I'm back. Dexter (My PleoRB) turns out to be fine and his injured leg has gone after turning him on for the first time since two weeks ago. However, I observed Dexter seems to have the neck problem (staring/heading upwards). Fortunately, it gets normal after switching him off and on again.

Crewella · « **Reply #49 on:** July 03, 2011, 08:51:08 AM »

Hi leongaj, don't worry that does happen to Pleos from time to time. You did the right thing and switched off - I doubt it will cause a problem in the future. Welcome back, I bet Dexter was pleased to see you, and his leaf!
