    This is my concept too. The tail can't be like a bunny tail or a really furry dog tail.

    I think you should give them a little cotton tail like a bunny.

    If they were invisible then :trap_sense: wouldn't really help to see them now would it? More like Stealth Color!

    :trap_sense: is really more of a "there's something fishy about that floor tile" sense, and doesn't actually have anything to do with eyesight.

    1. A small one, I guess.
    2. Round.

    I think Diggles, really, are that Mustard/Yellow you generally see them in. Sure, there's colouration, but I think it's like hair colour for people - the majority of people have brown hair, but there are blondes, reds (<3), greys, whites and so on.

    My feeling is that the iconic diggle is more of a bright, somewhat yellowish green than a light greenish yellow.

    Unfortunately, this color doesn't seem to have made it into the game yet.

    The poll choices seem to reflect the problem with diggles: yellow, beige, tan, taupe, mustard... the iconic color of a diggle is boring. (Like the nose?)

    That said, I like diggles lore-wise and shape-wise (no tuft, small rabbit tail), but color-wise, I only like the ones that aren't in the "iconic diggle" spectrum: the purple diggle is my favorite diggle that's in the poll, but I'd never call it the iconic diggle.

    However, I feel like a bright green diggle would both look good and be close enough to the iconic spectrum to act as the "normal" diggle.

    My second choice would be a French's Mustard yellow, I guess, it's in the iconic spectrum, and if a bit boring, at least it's not drab.

    That said, if you're making Merch, I think allowing us to taste the rainbow a bit would help sales greatly...you could even offer a discount "rainbow pack" with red, yellow, green, blue, and purple diggles to boost sales further.
