Hello Judie, Reminiscent of one of the robots at the robot carnival in the movie A.I., Mr. Personality is a unique interactive robot companion that talks up a storm. He's a natural joke teller, a fortune teller, and will even give you whimsical answers about your future. Instead of a featureless face Mr. Personality has an animated face which is displayed via a head mounted full color LCD. Features * Can move in all directions using a unique three wheeled mobile base * Tells stories, jokes, and fortunes and will talk to you too * Full color head mounted LCD screen display an animated face with synchronized facial expressions and sounds * Has several distinct play modes including: Bits, Crystal Ball, Fortune Cookies, Demo and others. * Detects and avoids obstacles and will let you know if he has fallen over or if his batteries are getting low on juice Official WowWee YouTube video:

Kindle your child’s curiosity for prehistoric creatures and make-believe adventures with his very own life-sized baby dinosaur. You may have seen “talking” and “moving” toys before, but chances are your dino-loving toddler has never seen a prehistoric “pet” that comes to “life” with realistic electronic sounds and motion. It’s fossil-sized fun standing just over three feet tall. A hidden handle helps kids hold on once they climb onto the dinosaur’s back. Realistic stomping sounds add to the make-believe fun as kids bounce in place on the spring seat. Talk to KOTA the Triceratops and he roars back with expressive tail, head, eye, mouth and horn movements. Hold out your hand and KOTA “sniffs” it! In fact, it’s easy to trigger all of his sensitive spots – try tickling his belly or chin to make KOTA “laugh”. And when you think this pretend dinosaur has worked up an appetite, be sure to “feed” KOTA his leafy snack – it really sounds like he’s munching on it! Four different adventure-themed tunes set the mood for your child’s wild imagination as he embarks on a dino-filled daydream. But don’t worry! A convenient volume control switch lets you adjust the level or turn it off. KOTA the Triceratops may look thick-skinned, but just one stroke on his scaly-like fabric “hide” will prove he’s really a soft and snuggable playmate who’s ready for all of your child’s dino-roarin’ escapades. Dinosaur figure comes with leafy snack and instructions.

WowWee's highly anticipated remote surveillance robot, The Rovio, has finally been seen in the USA as a pre-order item with an expected ship date of 9/26/2008.  Currently the only place I can find that is accepting pre-orders is Hammacher Schlemmer at a price of $299 (Note: Hammacher never uses the manufacturer's product name in their web page text but you can see for yourself from the product picture and description that it's a Rovio, along with their product lifetime guarantee)

Hello Judie, WowWee's hilarious and ill-behaved robot junkyard dog has finally popped up in the USA for ordering. Amazon has it available for about $140 (USD) and lists it as "in stock".

Buy.com has it available for ordering with Free Shipping, but lists it as "Temporarily Out Of Stock" and at a price of $150.

Hello Judie, Here's my latest. The first detailed review ever of WowWee's first female robot ever is now online, posted just minutes ago. In-depth review and companion video gives solid coverage of Femisapien's revolutionary new touch based interface and shows several of her many truly unique and entertaining behaviors. Most importantly, the video shows that she is the first truly capable dancing robot in the consumer price range. The review page contains critical tips for buyers and would-be owners of WowWee's new robot. Femisapien is scheduled for release this month and is already shipping in the Hong Kong and some Asian markets. Her estimated U.S. price is $99 USD.

Hello Judie, See Wall-E sit down for a nice quiet music lesson on the magic piano from hell! This brand new video stars the Wall-E iDance robot in a 90 second action video that includes cameo appearances from several of WowWee's new robots like the The Bat and Fairfly, along with the legendary Robosapien V1 and universally creepy Alive Chimpanzee. I will be updating the video page in the near future with details on how the video was made, what tools were used including the latest information I have on the growing Wall-E robot line of toys

Hey Judie, I ran across this funny and heartwarming story of a family and their Robosapien V2.  I'd tell you more but I don't want to ruin the surprise for you by giving you too much detail.  Take a moment and relax while reading this funny Robosapien V2 story that proves once again truth is stranger than fiction: http://charlieinwonderland.com/?p=481 Thanks, Robert

Hello Judie, As part of a WowWee's new "Insider Video" series, they released just minutes ago a pair of videos that give an advanced peek at some of Femisapien's more advanced features. The first shows WowWee uber-inventor Mark Tilden showing just how easy and it is to script Femisapien simply by moving her body around (posing). The second shows how the scripting-by-posing can be used to create scripts that show truly intricate movements in the setting of a Femisapien fencing match. The Femisapiens aren't really fighting each other since it's all scripted and they are not tracking each others movements and then striking at a target, it does make the point strongly of just how nimble she is and just how easy it is to create fun skits with her that involve advanced body movements.

Note: The E.M.A. robot recently announced by Sega Robots is really WowWee's Femisapien, which will be released shortly in the USA for a suggested retail of $99 (USD).

Wrex The Dawg is WowWee’s new, hilarious, ill-mannered robot dog. With an appearance that resembles Frankenstein’s Dog if he were assembled from a disjointed set of junkyard parts, and a face not even a mother could love, you can’t help but laugh the moment you see him.  Some say comedy is the art of understanding the rules of a good drama and then breaking them.  If so, this robot dog breaks all of the rules.  He is absolutely terrible at being a dog and even worse at being a robot.   If it will make you laugh then Wrex will do it, and he doesn’t care how many rules he breaks along the way. He breaks down frequently on purpose. Some times he acts like a cat, other times he insults them.  He farts better than any robot alive and threatens to “tinkle on” nearly every object in your house (a groundless threat since Wrex The Dawg is without the necessary equipment, but it’s the thought that counts!) In short, Wrex The Dog is the silliest robot you’ll ever love!

Hey Judie, Here's brand new detailed coverage on WowWee's upcoming Tri-Bot robot, which we created after playing with him solid for several days: We just released an In-depth video review that covers the important features and capabilities of the latest successor in WowWee's Robosapien line of robots, the Tri-Bot. When you combine Tri-Bot's ability to be driven merely by tilting his remote control along with his unique three wheel base, the net result is a simple to own and easy to love robot with amazing mobility not seen before in consumer robots. This YouTube video will show you these cool features, several of his fun and useful behavior modes, and tell you about the games Tri-Bot can play with you:
