Star Dog.com

Star Dog.com (スタードッグ.コム) is a gold version of Dog.com with a different set of personalities, which does not appear to have been released. It was supposed to be released on the 28th of June 2001 for 14,800 yen, according to a ZDNet article.

The toy, its box, and a card with info about it was displayed at the 2001 Tokyo Toy Fair. You can see the card and box only partially in both photos on this page. In the second photo is Monkey.com, which also doesn't appear to have been released, and the unit on display was described as a mock-up, so I don't know if it was functional.

"Star" in this context refers to a popular person.

Star Dog's personalities include:

  1. Comforting (癒し)
  2. Fortune Telling (占い)
  3. Comedy (お笑い)
