Quick post to answer those of you who want to know what the Mini Roboreptile can do. It's capabilities are limited to being able to walk with a limited ability to move to pose it's arms. In the end it's just a cute little walking dinosaur that young kids will like. It can also be used as a teaser gift for others before you give them the full size Roboreptile. It requires two AA batteries.

After a recent drop to $79 USD, the Discovery Store Chromashift Roboreptile's price is going back up to $89 tomorrow, Saturday November 17, 2006. For more information visit out Roboreptile information page. I guess the intense demand is causing this and hopefully they don't run out before the holiday season.

Our favorite green robot dinosaur is making a guest appearance on the wildly popular Ellen Degeneres show. In fact, they will be giving away a boatload of Discovery Store Chromashift Roboreptile to the audience.

Many of you have been curious about the Discovery Store Roboreptile's innovative Chromashift coating. Like a luxurious European sports car, this Roboreptile version has an impressive custom Italian paint job. The Chromashift technology allows the Roboreptile to appear different shades of color, based on the color of the object it is sitting or moving on due to the highly reflective nature of the

I finally got my new Roboreptile last week! I put together an Roboreptile video that will show you what he looks like up close and some of the things he can do. He's a lot more agile and nimble than his predecessor, the Roboraptor. For very young kids, I think the gentler slower moving Roboraptor is a better fit. But the new Roboreptile is definetly a lot of fun and will be a big hit with

WowWee has completely redesigned their web site so it is all Flash based. Therefore, the last set of links I sent you for the video and online manual are no longer valid. To view their commercial video for the Roboreptile, you'll have to go to their site and click on the "Video & Downloads" button. Here is the new link to view the Roboreptile manual online.

You can now see the Official Roboreptile video on WowWee's web site. It's the commercial for the Roboreptile and it will give you an idea of how he looks and moves.

SmackC4, a member of the Unofficial Robosapien Hacks and Mods Forum has made a Roboreptile video that shows his robot dinosaur running: He also has discovered that he is getting a lot more mileage out of his robot by using Energizer brand batteries. His robot dino walks better and moves better using this brand than the other ones he tried. This is a new blog post for the Roboreptile,

Those of us in the USA are unable to buy a Roboreptile just yet. But folks in Australia and New Zealand have started to get units. One such lucky early buyer posted a detailed review of the aggressive and exciting robot dinosaur, on the Unofficial Robosapien Hacks and Mods Forum.
