Kota Robot Baby Dino For Sale On Amazon

Kota

Pleo is very cute, but it’s also very small. Too small to effectively ride around pretending you’re a Cretaceous cowboy. If this has been a fantasy of yours (and don’t lie, it totally has been) Amazon has a whole herd of Hasbro’s Kota robotic baby dinosaurs ready to anesthetize, crate, and ship directly to you and your ages 3 & up year old, who will love you (through their new pet dinosaur, anyway) forever.

Although Kota is certainly more dino-sized (he’s 2.5 feet tall, over 3 feet long, and weighs around 35 pounds) than Pleo, the two have rather a lot in common, including motion sensors, touch sensors, moving heads, adorable blinking eyes, and the exact same leafy snack. Unlike Pleo, Koda is sadly unable to walk on his own, but he is able to stand there and make stomping noises while you your kids bounce on his spring-loaded back. Just arm Kota with some laser cannons or something, and maybe he’ll be able to take some long-overdue revenge on a certain ComBot…

Kota is on Amazon.com for $299, and shipping is free.

Three hundred bucks, wow! Thanks for the tip BotJunkie. I better warn my readers before Kota’s ads hit TV!
