Yeah, we gave you a plethora of hatching photos to ooh and ahh over when we received our first Pleo, but considering our inexplicable fear of needles and prehistoric blood, we never considered taking things any further. Apparently, the folks over at Pleo Dreams completely disregarded our recommendation to not de-skin the dinosaur, and proceeded to remove every square centimeter of Pleo's covering on video. Believe it or not, things get pretty interesting once the garb comes off, but you'll have to endure a near-24 minute clip in order to say you saw the entire procedure from start to finish. You ready? It's waiting after the break. 
You sick bastards. What did that poor, poor Pleo ever do to you :(.
Torture the bots anymore and their lab is Black Mesa.
"Gosh. Wonder what happens when you perform teleportation experiments on cheese."
Pleo pleaded with them to stop. Then they undressed some more.
Why? Why was I programmed to feel pain??
(insert witty pleo undressing joke here)
Way ahead of ya.
/homer
couple of things:
whats up with all the bruising on the wrists O_o
also the skin from the tail looks kinda like a condom....just sayin
wtf no it doesn't, have you ever even seen a condom?
haha thats awful! the bit where they take out parts of his mouth makes me cringe
Seriously though, that was a huge waist of a Pleo.
Unless they have plans to hack it, in which case it is a pretty cool thing to do, although still, half the fun is in that neat skin.
Yes we have plans to hack Bonez. In Fact in the next video due out soon, Bonez undergoes a brain exam.
It looks cooler to me as a bot than as a fake animal.
Yes I agree. One person over at the pleoworld forums said Bonez looked like a Terminator Pleo.
ha! i knew it! they were all robots! silly paleontologists and their evolution.
but seriously, i say we paint it funny colors and hack it to pices, with software hacks, im sure if they can hack the easy button to say evil, the pleo should be much, much harder, but possibly possible.
What's a Pleo? :P
I hope that this is not the video that finally pisses the robots off. C'mon, we all have seen the movies and know that robots are not that good with taking jokes and are probably much more efficient at skinning than we could ever be.
They made Pleo play with Pleo's own flesh. Entertaining!
It wasn't the skinning or the groping that forced the robot revolution, it was the imposed cannibalism.
they could have just phoned up the company and asked for a pre-skin model, but no!!!
Ouch.
Oh my God! They killed Pleo! You bastards!
I, for one, welcome our robotic dinosaur overlords.
They should cut the skin off a stuffed pink cat and put it on the naked pleo; then you'd have Hello Kitty Pleo, cause we just can't get enough products with Hello Kitty on them.
Yes,I agree with Shadowfox952. Put a Hello Kitty skin over it. Don't forget the bling! ;)
Was pleo on the whole time? hahaha torture! nice
