Various adult sized Barney costume requests

Lately, there seem to be more requests for adult purple Barney the dinosaur costumes even though there is no official adult sized costume available. There are children sizes, but that does not help the many desperate parents who want Barney to appear for the birthday of their children.

Requests for Barney costumes

There are still a lot of really desperate parents who are looking for adult sized Barney costumes for the birthdays of their little ones. The problem being that nobody is allowed to have a Barney costume and even purple dinosaur costumes that look very remotely similar are apparently not even allowed. A dinosaur costume is a dinosaur costume. Anything that humans wear will look fairly similar because of walking on two legs instead of four. The fact that nobody has purple dinosaur costumes or does have and is not allowed to rent it out, makes parents even more desperate and frustrated. In the end, parents might end up hating Barney just alone for this reason.

Desperate parents are looking for Barney costumes

I get a lot of rather desperate parents looking for adult sized Barney the dinosaur costumes for use for an average of fifteen minutes for the birthdays of their two or three year old children.

Unfortunately I cannot help them because of legal and brand limitation reasons that I have been made aware of recently. There should really be adult sized Barney costumes available to more or less look similar to the character that can be used for such purposes. I do understand that the company which owns the brand does not want the character image to be tainted by adults that get up to mischief while in the costume. The same can really happen with anything.

Lion spotted and dinosaur

On Sunday, 87 March 2010, I spotted a lion walking in the Kuilsrivier Spar. This was actually someone in a Simba Lion costume. It was quite amusing to see that, especially since I was the day before in a dinosaur costume for a children's birthday. At least I understood was it is like inside such a suit. The original plan was a bear suit, but I have a green dinosaur suit which was then picked.
