Sadly, I can't find any prices as yet.

However, I was eyeing up Keepon for ages before the MyKeepon finally came out ......... fingers crossed!

I've seen videos of that bear for awhile now, however it's still in the development and, as per one of the videos about it will only be released to nursing homes in Japan. The price is supposed to be substantial as well.

He's adorable though, and reminds me a lot of the bear from the movie AI. Now THAT'S the robot I want!

It's a simple trick, but this did make me laugh!

I bought one of these for my 6 year old nephew a few months ago.

They are funny little things. The one I got him does 4 different silly voices. So no matter what you get it to say it is always going to be funny.

This is interesting. It takes me back to the eighties when repeteing animals first came out. I had a bear named max whose mouth moved and repeted about ten seconds of audio and then I had a parrot a few years later who sat on a purch and repeted about fifteen seconds of audio. It moved its beak and flapped its wings. Oh yeah! And then around nineteen ninety four, the Yack Back series came on the scene. They were little hand-held devices that repeted stuff too. There were three of them as I remember- the Yack Back, the Yack Back II, and the Yack Backwards. I had all three and they all drove my parents crazy. Lol! What was this mimic pet?

Hi Crewella, i saw many vidxeo of mykeepon but seems to be very different from the keepon pro, and the response isn't very cool, i've changed my idea to buy one (i hope to change my idea again!)

I just saw the little Inu in a video on youtube and instantly thought to check here to see if anybody had an opinion on the little guy and the similarities he has to Pleo. I think Inu is really cute and I agree that it seems to be a smaller, cheaper, more child-friendly version of Pleo.

Also, to touch on the subject of MUTSU, brought up earlier in this thread...

I have a blue Mutsu with rainbow fins and I LOVE him! He was quite expensive as they are extremely hard to find now (got him on ebay for around $120). I have the japanese version which has a smaller tank, shaped like a fish bowl (which is far cuter in my opinion). He responds to sound and light and the japanese version comes with a little remote you use to communicate with him. With it you can tell him to do all types of tricks and such ^.^ He sits in his little bowl on my desk and swims around and entertains me with his singing, dancing and cute sounds ^.^

I love robotic pets so I am constantly on the lookout for some new ones to adopt. My most simplistic but ultra adorable is my little Walkie Bits. They are little electronic turtles from japan that walk to the beat you input by tapping on their shell. They also race and play music ^.^ Anybody else like these?

I've never heard of the walkie bits *goes to YouTube them*

They are kind of engaging, they have several modes. I must confess I quite like them, simple as they are.

Normal mode

They look cute enough, but that noise!!!!!!!!!

My poor ears .......... it would be like having a pet smoke alarm!!

InmemoryofRomeo · « **Reply #86 on:** December 03, 2011, 02:56:24 PM »

ROFL! Fortunately they have an off switch

But at a price of $40 I won't be buying one, too dear for what it does.

Crewella · « **Reply #87 on:** December 03, 2011, 03:10:10 PM »

That's a relief, though it was possibly my fault for watching with the sounds turned full up!

I do know what you mean about them, I liked Mutsu too. And Hexbugs.

Sir Iron Soul · « **Reply #88 on:** December 03, 2011, 05:05:59 PM »

This isn't really a pet but thought it was worht a meantion. It's the irobot roomba. It's a robot Hoover that will Hoover your house while your out at work or something. I thought it was pretty cool myself.

Talon · « **Reply #89 on:** December 03, 2011, 06:57:51 PM »

I have a friend who has one of these. I should probably invest in the pet-friendly version seeing as my doggy likes to leave his fur everywhere. Anyway, a pet smoke alarm. Crewella that was funny! These little guys are a bit loud. I wouldn't want to be both blind and deaf. Lol!

Cute little things but boy were they loud. I wonder if they are that loud in person.

I have a robot vacuum and I love it. One of the best things I ever bought

Crewella · « **Reply #91 on:** December 04, 2011, 02:16:13 AM »

I had the first Roomba model, great at mapping the room, but not so great at cleaning!

I'll have to find some other uses for it ...........

I have one walkie bit, cute

sweetReaper · « **Reply #93 on:** December 04, 2011, 07:34:35 PM »

The Walkie Bits actually aren't that loud in person (quiet actually if you ask me). I have a little green one with 3 shells you can decorate with little stickers or bows or this cute little cake you can glue to one of the shells XD Mine was around $15 off of ebay with free shipping

I would love to have more Walkie Bits someday because they are so adorable X3
