Pleo destroyed by a Combot

This is the saddest thing I’ve ever seen. Since getting a Pleo a few months ago, we’ve basically given the bugger a name and gotten to know its personality. To watch this Combot tear Pleo up at Maker Faire is like watching a wolf eat a mouse — it’s no contest
Basically Ugobe donated Pleo for this contest and they put it in with Vicious Verdict, a combat robot used for Battlebot contests. Once VV winds up a little, all hell breaks loose. Very, very sad… and kudos to Ugobe for making a device that humans can love.

  1. Eventually, one pleo somewhere will fight back and then the world will plunge into darkness.
