So, a Chia-Pet is just a clay bust of P'Thok that you smear gel containing grass seeds on and it grows green grass like hair?
But that's stupid, P'Thok didn't have hair...

Apparently it's up and running, producing toys right now.
The four LawSec and two government officials received gifts that they're blasting all over social media right now.
The Treana'ad ambassador who arrived last week was just gifted a "Genuine BobCo Autonomous Animatronic Moomoo" by the BobCo AI. Not a digital sentience, an actual AI. The Ambassador is taking vids of him petting his Moomoo and having it do tricks. He's lording it over every other Treana'ad in existence by posting it to the Smokey Cone diplomatic site.
The Treana'ad Matron in charge of the diplomatic team received a P'Thok ChiaPet, a fishtank full of Genuine Sea Monkeys, a Robotic Nanite Circus of Wonders, two minature RealMoomoos, and a Genuine BobCo HoloHat.

She's currently talking to the hive matrons on Smokey Cone wearing the Holohat and petting her minature moomoos on the video conference to the other matrons.
I think one is frothing at the mouth in envy.
I better get a hand on this before there's a riot.

He's a little busy. The BobCo SolNet "Always Online" store is so overloaded it's actually reverted to a 2.5D storefront with limited interaction.
AHA!
They DO still sell Fantabulosa Pond Paddling No-Windup Squeaky Ducklings that sing over 100 duckling songs.

Dammit, there was 1.2 million left when I read that out loud, now it's "Temporarily Out of Stock".
