Any brick Pleo with good skin for sale?
« on: February 05, 2011, 08:25:38 PM »
Sorry if this is the wrong place to ask or if I'm not allowed to ask but just look at this poor guy.. Left in a closet in the curled sleeping position for a YEAR didn't help.
I couldn't even put his Pleo cape on because it was ripping his legs more... his skin is literally falling off like an old rubber band.

We are really hoping to find some new skin for this poor guy.. he seems to have had it tough enough.. when I turned him on he must have remembered how long he was turned off and started screaming and roaring.. then ate his leaf for over a half hour.. he is also terrified to be picked up.. I'm assuming the kids who had him dropped him before?? Would he remember that?  Soon as I put him down he's fine but nothing calms him when being carried.



Thanks guys... once again having trouble posting pics but I'll get it..

Sarah he can't remember being picked up or dropped, nor how long he has been off for. His skin really is in terrible condition. Perhaps some tape will help the tail but it depends what the rest of his body is like.

You could try ebay.  Here is someone selling 4 at once.
http://cgi.ebay.com/Lot-4-Pleo-Electronic-Animatronic-Dinosaur-Robot-Toys-/150556917756?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item230de43ffc
If the cost to ship wasn't so high I might go for them myself.  You could probably get at least one of the 4 to work using parts from the others if necessary.

Kat's right - Ebay's probably your best bet.  In the meantime you might try treating the old skin with Vinylex.  It won't work miracles but it will save the remaining skin from further deterioration and possibly put some moisture back in.  :)

I've been looking for some new skin for Gizmo, too. Could I buy some skin off of you if you win those 4 Pleos Kat?  :P

Sadly the shipping cost for me would be about $160 so way too much.  So no bidding for me but if anyone else out there wants to have a bid go ahead. ;D

It would be about $40 for me, but with the bidding at $46 I doubt I'll be doing any bidding :( If only they were selling them one at a time so they'd be cheaper

Depending on how high that bid goes I may get it.. and of course if I had more than one viable skin I'd be happy to help others too.  I was kind of hoping I could get good at skinning the broken ones and maybe supplying old pleos with new skin... who knows.  Thanks for the info guys..
