Paying millions of dollars to look like certain stars or even barbie dolls is not unheard of. But in a strange event, a Japanese man has spent ₹ 12 lakh (2 million Yen) to look like a dog. A man from Japan has fulfilled his lifelong dream of desiring to look like an animal. Twitter user @toco_eevee has published pictures of himself on Twitter that have left the internet stumped.
As per news reports, the transformation was made possible because of a professional agency called Zeppet. According to local Japanese news portal news.mynavi, Zeppet gives a large number of sculptures for commercials, movies, and entertainment facilities and also delivers costumes that have been seen on TV or famous mascot characters in Japan.
The whole costume took 40 days of production and is estimated to have cost more than ₹12 lakh (2 million Yen).

Toko has even spoken to news.mynavi, and when asked about why he selected a collie, he said, “I made it a collie because it looks real when I put it on my taste and costume. My favorite is quadrupedal animals, especially cute ones. Among them, I thought that a big animal close to me would be good, considering that it would be a realistic model, so I decided to make it a dog. Long-haired dogs can mislead the human figure. I met such a condition and made Collie my favorite breed of dog.”
The interviewer also asked him whether he could move his limbs freely, to which he replied, “There are restrictions, but you can move it. But, if you move it too much, it will not look like a dog.”
Toko even has his own YouTube channel, wherein one video, he can be seen asking viewers for “requests for the video you would like to see.” It is very tough to locate a picture of Toko outside of him in this dog costume.
