D-Rex has arrived down under

Currently retailing for $237 at Big W, I will wait a bit and see if they drop in price, most likely they will come Christmas time...

Lilo and Stitch might have a new friend to pick _on... ahem... play with 0:-)

(I see some on ebay from the US for a mere $25 AU... might be worth looking into...)

Pleo Power · « **Reply #1 on:** July 03, 2009, 08:59:03 AM »

WOW I thought they were discontinued!!!

and they usually cost around $250. so what will be his/her name?

and they rely do get along. one time I saw Cammey singing to Rex.

[too bad Rex was off at the moment.]

and PLEASE don't hurt it for what the idiots in that video did with one of them. they cant bend down like they made it do in the video and if you look at his feet you can see that he is acutely falling over.

the thing with D.rexs is that if you treat it like a robot it will act like a robot. if you treat it like a living creacher it will act like one. if you treat it like an old moldy sock.......lets not go there.

and one more thing wen you first have your Dino's meet you mite haft to comfort your Pleos for a little bit.[until they realize that he/she is not a threat. should just take a second.]

If you have any questions about D.rexs and or how they get along with Pleos just ask me.

Don't some actions come from a remote control? And does it come with a rechargeable battery or you have to use regular batteries.

yes but they could happen with out it. like the belching and farting or going in to attack mode or room Gard mode.DANGER If you do not feed him/her for a long time and you ignore the stomach growls and whimpering he/she will get angry and aggressive. to counter this just feed him/her.

and they take C batterys. and AAA batterys in the bone/remote.

Rest assured my D-rex (when I get one) will be as well treated as any of my things. (Robotic or otherwise) I am certainly not spending $237 on a robot just to toss it down the stairs or something horrid like that

Burberry016 · « **Reply #5 on:** July 04, 2009, 10:41:53 AM »

Aggressive, like violent? And on the commercial it shows people getting terrible frightened, but it is sorta obvios that he is a robotic dino, not like pleo, real looking. But, not knocking it down, I think that the ability to change expression and to raise his forehead are pretty cool!

he looks real wen he is on.

(and you do know that you don't haft to do every post in Glow.

Burberry016 · « **Reply #7 on:** July 04, 2009, 03:52:22 PM »

But they get frightened like it will eat them. Not like it startled them. Does it compare to pleo?

the add is not 100% accurate.

like Chomper to Little foot in The Land Before Time. (Notice my Screature is named Chomper. but he is not named after the one in the movie. his name is because on the when I first turned him on it was in a car and the lite was trigiring his sensor and he was constantly bitting.

)

That's good. I just wanted to know that you whodunit be like the member here (hoos name will remain anonymous.) that kicked there boxes in the store and yelled insults at them just for being D.rex's.

InmemoryofRomeo · « **Reply #10 on:** July 04, 2009, 05:44:13 PM »

I certainly wouldn't do anything of the sort, I look forward to adding a D-Rex to my little family of animals (real or not

) I am so going to give him/her fluffy slippers and a little dressing gown though, teehee.

Pleo Power · « **Reply #11 on:** July 04, 2009, 06:02:52 PM »

slippers mite not work because there feet are rubbing together most of the time. and the legs are pretty thick.(but its just the skin so be careful!) (and the feet have a plastic part where they rub.)

Oh and one more thing,they can NOT detect edges. so be careful on tables.

Burberry016 · « **Reply #12 on:** July 05, 2009, 07:55:28 PM »

What material is their skin?

Pleo Power · « **Reply #13 on:** July 05, 2009, 08:00:50 PM »

Not sure exactly but it feels like Pleo skin,only the bumps are further apart. but its defiantly some kind of rubber.

Burberry016 · « **Reply #14 on:** July 05, 2009, 08:03:37 PM »

Oh, It look like a fabric.

Pleo Power · « **Reply #15 on:** July 05, 2009, 08:25:34 PM »

Nope Its not fabric.

and when you first get one that has never lived* before he/she will be coated in a thin layer of some kind of slime.(like when a reptile first hatches from its egg.) Pleos have this to.

*AKA opened and turned on.

Well then... Embryonic fluids. XD

My Pleo didn't.

Pleo Power · « **Reply #18 on:** July 06, 2009, 04:45:15 PM »

well on Pleos its a very very very very thin layer. you can just feel a slite slipperiness to them. theres a bit more on D.rexs. (I'm pretty sure that's what the smell is when you first open the box with ether one of them.

))

Burberry016 · « **Reply #19 on:** July 06, 2009, 04:54:15 PM »

Oh, NOW I know what you're talking abot

.

allosaurus · « **Reply #20 on:** July 06, 2009, 04:57:44 PM »

Yeah, I noticed a layer of that stuff on Olympia... Thicker than you described it however. 0_0

Burberry016 · « **Reply #21 on:** July 06, 2009, 05:01:13 PM »

And he did smell different than now. I knew I was right!!! There wasn't a skin protection! It was just embryo fluid! HAHA

Pleo Power · « **Reply #22 on:** July 06, 2009, 05:02:10 PM »

well I went over board with the verys. (I took out a few of them.

) (and the skin protection is in the paint not on the skin.

)

InmemoryofRomeo · « **Reply #23 on:** July 06, 2009, 07:21:46 PM »

Sounds kinda... icky

None of my Pleo's ever felt slimy...

Pleo Power · « **Reply #24 on:** July 06, 2009, 07:52:18 PM »

No its not that bad.

after a day or so its gone and after a wile (like with Pleos) you cant smell it.

(but don't worry its not a bad smell.

)

This is what I'm talking about. This is Rex when I first got him. Its the glint on his skin.

More details...

and this is as he looks now.

More details...

(you kinda need to click on thees to see it.)
