The costume has been created by Zeppet, which also designed a Collie outfit for another man in Japan.
A man in Japan is living his childhood dream - by transforming himself into a wolf. Toru Ueda, an engineer, spent three million Yen (Rs 20 lakh) for the custom wolf costume, according to UK-based The Times. The suit was delivered to him earlier this year and he was extensively photographed wearing it. His story is going viral again now. The suit has been created by Zeppet Workshop, a specialist production and modelling company that provides costumes and figures for the film and TV industries. Four employees of the company spent seven weeks to make the wolf suit. But despite the huge cost, Mr Ueda does not wear it for fancy dress parties, saying he would be uncomfortable while walking in the wolf suit.
The 32-year-old, however, said that he slips it on at home to relax and forget his troubles.
"When I wear my costume I feel I'm no longer human," Mr Ueda told The Times in January.
