Love my Pal Mickey. Being a solo visitor he can be great company. I go often and probably have heard every joke but still smile at them.
For carrying him, I found the clip not that effective. So I use a bottle lanyard (the ones they sell at each park), place the string end around head. And know for sure he will not come loose, fall off, or get lost. The clip on waistband I heard works ok. But I tried it on my handbag strap in several places and directions and each time the clip did not hold. Plus having PM on the bottle lanyard I can easily pull him up to my ear to listen to as needed
I have no kids and bought PM just for me, an adult that never wants to grow up or out of the Disney magic.
I visit often and have a friend that also has a PM. So we just get a stereo effect.
IMO adults needs a Pal Mickey for the kid in them.
