It's the legs the ladies love Wombat.

I didn't say who was complaining. ;)

I don't know about that - When we first arrived, a manager ran over to us, complimented us on our costumes, told us it was fine to have our pictures taken but NOT to sign any autographs (which we hadn't planned on doing, anyways), and then gave us a voucher for ice cream for everyone in our group (I think there were 7 or 8 of us in total!). I know that CM's all over the park heard about us long before we reached their area of the park.

At the end of the night, when we went to see Cinderella and Prince Charming, management arranged a special one on one meet and greet with them - so they not only allowed us in, but helped make quite a bit of magic for us as well.

At one point, when we were walking through the park with the real Anastasia and Drizella and step mother (after they invited us to invade a dance party with them), we ended up with our own character escort CM's (There were about 8 around the three character, and my friend and I).

Tell me about it! My 12 year old is 5'6, 120 pds, and has muscles on top of muscles (thanks to karate, she can kick anyone's butt) - but finding her a costume that doesn't make her look like a mini-whore is almost impossible!

What happened to dressing up for fun, not to attract the male eye?

Could she go as The Hulk?

Actually, joking aside, that's not a half bad idea, Hobie. Not as the Hulk, but rather as She-Hulk! Admittedly, depending on the costume, it could show off a bit too much skin, but...

I wasn't joking. With the kid's described build, the Hulk would be ideal. Use shredded clothing to get the idea across but make it just shredded enough so the kid doesn't look like Bimbo Hulk.

They are. You just can't act as the character (for example, signing autographs).

even plus sized costumes are whore-ish, and let me tell you no one wants to see my fat (_*_) hanging out! Not to mention I wouldn't say they are meant to fit plus sized, more like I'm average.
