One of these things is not like the others…

This is an idea I have for a t-shirt, it’s a pretty simple idea but I like it a lot. The little fellow in green would be glow in the dark - the rest wouldn’t, and Ideally he wouldn’t look any different from them. I know glow in the dark stuff can tend to look greeny so I left him a different colour for now.
Not sure where the idea for this came from, or why it occurred to me - in fact, I had forgotten about it until I was looking through a notepad of mine and found the sketch for the ghost.
Eoin has a t-shirt with rows of sheep on it, with one wolf in sheeps clothing, that may have been a contributing factor to this idea. People seem to love noticing that wolf. This wouldn’t be quite the same, because the humour of the wolf isn’t there, it probably got me thinking about the whole ‘one of these things is not like the others‘ thing.
I also like the idea that the glow in the dark fellow would rarely have an opportunity to glow, kind of like a ‘hidden feature’ or something…
So what about it? Would anyone buy this t-shirt?

T’would depend on the price and if you carried them in women’s sizes. Very cute design.

My kid brother had pyjamas when he was a toddler with a repeating penguin motive arranged in bands, each holding the other’s tale. Right near the bottom there was a single Inui… Eskim… Native North Polian with the penguins. We were fascinated by it. It’s the Where’s Wally factor. Rupert the Bear had loads of hiddeney bits as well which I loved.
Bespoke kids PJs is the way to go.
OT are the Irish Election cartoons out the window now too?

Nice design! Yes, I’d buy it but you probably already knew that because of the t-shirt you referred to above. It’s a Kukuxumusu design. Like this only a t-shirt.
I also quite like this.
