Shadow- I would suggest getting as close to new as possible. Think about it, you wouldn't want grease from food getting all over a $400 dinosaur, when you could pay $5 or less for a whole pack of washcloths. I wish I had exact measurements of the one I used however at best bet, I would assume the washcloth was appropriately 7 inches x 7 inches, or about 18 centimeters x 18 centimeters. The idea is to have fun, make Pleo look good and all being achieved while protecting his/her skin from the everyday germs, filth, and daily contaminants that we all have. I suggest using the smallest possible safety pin as you can find as once positioned, the pin will rest securely along the 'jugular ' vein. I used baby/diaper sized safety pins and always had the pointy end facing away from the pleos body. When applicable, I had an American Flag, or Canadian, or even Australian Flag and pinned it securely in place instead of using the pins all together. Be advised the socks are an extremely tight fit, I did forget to re-mention that. Generally speaking, I wear size 10 US MENS shoes/socks. One time, a uniform required ladies athletic footwear. I believe I went for a size 11 US WOMENS shoe. That might perhaps be a bit better size for Pleo. I forgot ladies feet run smaller.

RWM- I totally can see some funky designs formulating in my mind if I hit up the local Wal*Mart's ladies sock clearance. I would find some funky colors, and designs. Probably for a real steal too! And yes be absolutely sure your pleo is stiff and straight "storage/box" mode, you have the fully charged battery installed, and you are most certain pleo will wear this outfit for a while. It does make to be a very tight fit, so perhaps you might want to even go larger than my feet when sock hunting.
IMR- I do just love the bbq song, even when they were talking about 'Aussie Meat' on the grill, and steaks, I knew they were talking about tofu/tempeh steaks.

The song was very upbeat and I did enjoy hearing it. You must think we all have very strange accents.

I thought it almost sounded like country music or folk or some variant thereof. At any rate I enjoyed it, even if I still cannot picture gorgeously maintained park bbqs and this 'bopping' music (just kinda makes you wanna bop around, you know?). I love hearing how things can be so similar yet so different at the same time! Thanks!!
But I have found a Pleo In The Wild and I have included a little hint to go with it. Crack the code, and find Pleo!
If you can believe, this was my fathers office for a quite some time. I know it is quite the mess and will be quite the jumble, but can you find the Pleo In The Wild?
"Wake up, and look closely. And HEADS UP for a head down!
only half of
THIS PLEO....................is showing."
^the above is the hint as to how and perhaps what you will find when you find the other half of pleo
