If I were in NYC, I'd TOTALLY apply.
/female, 25, and 5'9", wooooo!

I wish I was in New York, cuz I could so do this!! I'm 29, and 5'10".

So cool! I'd do that! (Well, if I were in NYC, and tall, and could wear my glasses.... I suppose I could do it all by myself, sort of a Wraith-force of One invasion of Osaka, but. Getting arrested, not so cool....)

Well, that would leave me out because I'm not tall enough and I also wear glasses. But that is cool! Watch out for the wraith on new year's eve, lol!

Oh, to be tall. And near NYC. lol

Thanks for the info! Hopefully someone will be there and capture photos.

Ooh, that sounds like so much fun! I'm not very tall, but I have some 4'' heels that could put me at the right height. And you get paid to do it! I'm only between 5'4'' and 5'5'', so I'd be a short Wraith.

I'm too short, don't have the platform boots required (Not even 5'4" in my sneakers) to make me that tall and don't live in the NYC region.

(I can fudge on the glasses/contacts thing - I can wear the lenses, just normally don't because I'm lazy. :p)

I totally hope that they manage to pull this off....

I too am a 5'2" pixie on the blindish side. Can't wear contacts because of the risk of eye infections and add the fact that Melbourne is a leetle bit far away but it's stinking hot 33°C and I don't want to go to cold weather. :)

Not tall enough and if I didn't despise Time Square on New Years, I would love to watch.

5’9”-6’5”... they discriminate against short Wraith!! ;~;

this is such a cool idea though, and now i too will have to watch some of the new Year's Eve shows. ^^

FRICKIN' AUGH, DUDE

[krysalys.livejournal.com]

Just... AUGH.
*headkeyboardsmash*
*whimper*
I'd have to wear what... seven inch platform shoes to make that requirement.
AUGH.
Just... *whimpers more*
Couldn't I play a short female breeder Wraith?
*pouts* I could totally do that. Even got the fat thing down, though no actual baby in there... ;p
