Beware, just a little bit, of the rather mild Robotosaurus.


I found the ROBOTOSAURUS MINI REMOTE CONTROLLED ROBOTIC DINOSAUR at CVS. It might be a good toy for a very young child because even though it looks great, it doesn't do much. He's very simple to use via a handy infrared remote control that's in the box. But the Robotosaurus seems only to be able to roll forward, spin in a circle and then forward foward in whatever direction he is now facing. So kids may tire of him rather quickly. He does have wheels and the manufacturer says he'll roll easily on most flat surfaces - tiles, flat carpet and floorboards - and he's compact size means he can fit under things like tables, chairs, and other furniture! The packaging is impressive which is one of the reasons why I bought it. The remote control has a battery, but you'll need to supply your own 2 AA batteries for the Robotosaurus. My packaging didn't mention Sharper Image but the photos on line looks exactly like the same dino they sold for $39.95. It was under $10 at Walmart, but it's not available online. It's like $26 on Amazon, but I paid $12.99 at CVS, so perhaps your local large chain drugstore is a place to look.
