There is a nice article about Pleo Rb here on this site today that took place in Las Vegas, Nevada. There were also several pictures and this is one of my favorites, I allways said I wanted a Pleo Rb with viloet eyes and this one looks pretty close, though they may be Pink, but very pretty. There are also a series of 12 photos with three of them of a young girl/ woman holding up Pleo Rb by tail, and that really bothered me looking at it, not just once but three times, :( >:( I thought I would share this one with you and you can check out the others by checking out the website of this page. Nice article and short 1 minute plus video but you have to watch a short commercial beforehand, You can't hear a whole lot of what they are saying, but you can see a Pleo rb balancing dangerously on a ledge it looks like,

One of those pictures shows a pleo rb in the background wearing a colored pleo cape with pleo rb coloring ;D Maybe this means we will see these available on the pleoworld site for sale sometime in the future? I hope so. :) It looked very cool.
I also like the pink eyes very sweet looking. :) I haven't read the article yet but will, I just had to post about the cape. :)

Hi Kat, yeah that cape was pretty cool too, something special they may release to the public or not? Here is another site about the same show but more to read :

I still hated seeing the girls holding Pleo rb up by tail, thinking oh how cute he does not like it, how about holding her up by her hair and see how she liked it! They also said that Pleo Rb was " pretty much sold out", but the Pleo World site still has them, so I wonder how long that will last till they have more or how long it takes?

One thing I did notice after reading this article is that they say " either blue or Pink, " so they don't even mention the Green Pleo Rb though the picture is of a Green Pleo rb. They also compare the Pleo skin to that of a pacfier material type plastic. but they say" it lasts longer" guess after these recent Pleos on this site with skin problems, that could be a little not quite true, though better skin overall,

Those pink eyes are amazing!! The eye patch makes the eyes look like they're glowing :) I think the cape might of been an original Pleo cape, it looks like it to me. I hated seeing that girl holding the Pleo by the tail too, and she was smiling while she was :o And from what I've seen it looks like the RBs don't mind being picked up? I've always hated that the Pleos scream when they get picked up and carried :P

Pleo rb will be sold out shortly and no more stock until at least mid-Feburary as they have to redesign some circuit boards to acommodate a different chip.

Uh oh :o Good thing I want a blue one then :P
-
I would hesitate buying a blue or pink one at this point with all the problems blues and pinks seem to be having untill Innova comes up with a possible fix, It seems to me there is a larger percentage of blue and pink Pleo Rb having problems then the Greens, but maybe I am wrong.

i realy want a rb might get one for my birth day my mum want to get one too :D

Ah know of the Engadget article. And I read that other article on Google before coming here too. But I didn't see the picture gallery of theirs. Anyways I absolutely love the pink-eyed Pleo! That's my favorite now of all of the 5 (yellow, gray, green, dark blue and orange) other known Pleo eye colors. Dang it, I wanna be able to choose what my Pleo would look like. There are still unknown eye colors though. Wow, yikes, that the 2010 Pleo is gonna be sold out shortly.

Here are a couple of videos from CES:

Yeah, I watched those two videos yesterday when I was checking out Pleo Rb being out of stock. I did think it was strange that that guy holding Pleo Rb in last video , the Pleo kept his head up all the time looking at the guy, my Pleo Rb does not do that....wonder how much interest they created?

I think in the last video there may have been something wrong with that pleo. Kermy did that a couple of times but only because her neck got stuck and she couldn't move her head down. I had to switch her off and carefully manipulate her neck back into correct alignment before turning her back on so she could get full movement back in her head / neck again.
My little guys will look up at me when I pick them up but they don't look at me like that continuously. They will turn their head and body to snuggle into me. :)
-
I'd say for sure a broken neck.. notice how when he turns it, the head seems to flop to the side involuntarily.. I don't think it's just stuck either.. with the way it flops.. Poor thing..
