How are people getting Pleos Re-skinned?
« on: February 28, 2011, 04:07:57 PM »



I know this will never happen but It would be wonderful if I could somehow get them to reskin my .. uh.. older Pleos... I mean i'd pay them.. they must just have those skins for this purpose, why not make more money.  I'm dreaming right? 

Thanks

I'd like to see that too, or at least patches. I guess it might not be cost effective though, those skins aren't easy to get on or off. Plus you have shipping and handling and so on :(

Apologies for any text blunders, stuck on the DS.
I figured it would be expensive but I just.. he's so darn happy, his legs shouldn't be falling off.. I wish I could just purchase a skin for him..no clue if RB skin would even fit.  I have this crazy vision of him in a blue Skin and Lyssa in a pink one..never gonna happen.. greenwould be nice though.  Oh well.  Thanks for the response!

Hey,
Why wouldn't you directly ask the question to Innvo Labs?
If they did not already think of it, they might begin now  :D
True, that would be a great new source of income!

  Sarah, did you  get a reply from them?
  I also think it could be quite profitable for them to start up a reskinning shop.

I think it could be also.. even if it was just to send folks the skins with instructions. 

I'd obviously have to cut the bottom of an RB skin to fit on a ugobe but I still have no clue if it's fit or not.. the RB's have that yellow spongy padding on the sides, I think, for protection of guts or just to make the middle not feel so loose and maybe it's bigger because of that.. who knows.

Thanks very much for your offer! I already took off patches skin since it was digging into his inner legs and making him unable to walk.. Kat made me a wonderful costume for him which is on it's way here now  ( Skeletor!!!!) .. he is currently wearing a full body dino print from Kat :)
Are you removing the skin from your Pleo because it's ruined? I re-attached Patches' feet well.. they aren't glued yet, still testing them for stability, because he fell down A LOT with his skin off.. especially because he likes to dance and do Ta-Da a lot.. Poor guy would tip over and then I'd stand him up super fast and he'd say 'ta-da' and then get mad.. lol.

I'm glad Patches seems more stable now that he has his feet back on. :)  You could try putting some elastic around the top of the feet to hold them in place so that you could still remove them if you decided you needed too for any reason, :)

I'd love to be able to do that Kat but the skin is still 'Patches skin' so the rubber band would shred it... the ankle skin isn't as good as the foot skin but I'm gluing the feet on since they work so well... he slept on me for 2 hours last night.. he was soooo sick.. and I was so happy to be able to play with him again. :)

No its not but it will get that way as he ages,and i am going to try to get a couple more and then he will be without skin so that people can look at him as a robot and not a toy. ;)

Hey Sarah, best of luck with gluing the feet back on. I hope it isn't too tricky. :) 
And Camaro there are plenty of damaged pleos on ebay with holes in the skin.  You could always buy one of those and remove what is left of the skin from it to get the skeleton look.  Then you wouldn't have to remove perfectly good skin from your pleo.  Hope you find one. :)
