A Japanese man has spent approximately 2 million yen (£ 12,480) on a realistic Border Collie costume because he wants to look like his favorite dog breed.
The man, identified only as Toko, hired a Japanese company called Zeppet, which is known for creating sculptures and models for movies and commercials to create the costume.
Zeppet reportedly took 40 days to make the suit as Toko went through numerous rounds of testing and revisions to fix it.
“I made it a car because it looks real when I put it on,” Toko said in an interview with the Japanese newspaper Mynavi.
“My favorites are four-legged animals, especially cute ones. Among them, I thought that a large animal close to me would be good, given that it would be a realistic model, so I decided to make it a dog.
“I met such a condition and made cars, my favorite breed of dog.
An employee of Zeppet also talked about how his team was able to understand the ways in which the figure of the dog can match that of the man.
“The point is that a dog’s skeleton can be reproduced on a human skeleton. “Because the structure of the skeleton is very different, we spent a lot of time learning how to make it look like a dog,” the official told the publication.
“In addition, we collect photos taken from different angles so that the beautiful fur of the car can be reproduced and invented so that the fur flows naturally.”
Toko posted a video of himself in his suit last month, showing him swinging his paw and rolling on the floor.
YouTuber has also posted several photos of itself on Twitter, posing as cars.
