The new animatronic line of cuddly cubs from WowWee

Wowwee Alive Koala Joey

In 2008, WowWee Technologies introduced their line of WowWee Alive plush animals.  This year, the company plans to add four new cubs to its collection and introduce them at CES in January.  These interactive plush animals will interact with its owner by responding to touch and making different sounds and facial expressions.

The new varieties include the WowWee Alive Seal Pup, Husky Puppy, Koala Joey, and Leopard Cub.  As long as you provide your pet with attention, it will come “alive” and interact with you.  The cub will move its eyes, mouth or make cub sounds to let you know that it appreciates the attention.  Once you are done playing with it, it will automatically enter sleep mode after five minutes. The new line of WowWee Alive cubs will cost about $60.  You can find the line at numerous department stores, including Target and Wal-Mart.  Your purchase also includes an adoption certificate for your new pet.

For smaller and less expensive versions, buyers can choose the Wowwee Alive Minis.  These eight inch dolls come with their own baby bottles that the cub can sense.  The cubs also make baby like sounds, like soft snoring and gurgling when the touch sensor is activated.

This animatronic line of plush animals will likely be a hit with kids.  The dolls are appropriate for children 3 and older.  You can look on the WowWee website for more information on the WowWee Alive animals.
