Video: Japanese man spends $15,000 to look like a dog
A Japanese man has spent around $15,000 to fulfil his lifelong dream of wanting to look like a dog.
Twitter user @toco_eevee posted pictures of himself wearing a custom-made collie costume.
A professional agency called Zeppet helped design the costume in 40 days. Zeppet provides a large number of sculptures for movies, commercials, amusement facilities and also produces costumes that have been seen on TV and costumes of famous mascot characters in Japan, according to local Japanese news outlet news.mynavi.
When Toko was asked why he chose a collie, he told news.mynavi, “I made it a collie because it looks real when I put it on my taste and costume.”
While speaking about the movement of his limbs, Toko said, “There are restrictions, but you can move it. However, if you move it too much, it will not look like a dog.”
“Have you ever wanted to be an animal? I have! I made my dream come true like this,” the video was captioned.
