A MAN who has spent £20,000 to transform into a human wolf says his dream has finally come true.
The bizarre request was given to the Japanese company Zeppet, who spent 50 days to complete the ultra-realistic costume.
The fake wolf suit cost a whopping three million yen with the makers checking images of real wolves to get the best result possible.
The anonymous customer wrote on the company’s website: “Because of my love for animals since childhood and some realistic animal suits appearing on TV, I dreamed of being one someday.
“At the final fitting, I was amazed at my transformed self in the mirror. It was a moment when my dream come true.”
The Japanese man has been left thrilled with the final product and says it turned out exactly like what he had in mind.
He added: “My order to ‘look like a real wolf walking on hind legs’ was difficult – to say the least – but the complete suit looked exactly like what I imagined.
“Not only did the specs perfectly cover all of my preferences, but the ventilation slit for the wearer’s comfort and the devices that let the wearer put it on without help showed me that the designers paid close attention to the wearer’s comfort.”
Zeppet previously helped a dog fan to fulfil their drive of becoming a real-life human collie.
The Japanese oddball, who uses the online name Toko-san, paid two million yen for the fake fur suit, which took 40 days to make.
Makers Zeppet said they studied the skeleton of a collie to make the suit realistic, and looked at dog photos from various angles to reproduce the coat so it “flows naturally”.
Toko-san says the collie is his favourite breed, and the suit has helped him “fulfil my dream of becoming an animal.”
He said: “I made it a collie because it looks real when I put it on.
“I thought that a big animal close to my size would be good – considering that it would be a realistic model, so I decided to make it a dog.”
He added: “There are restrictions, but you can move in it. However, if you move too much, it will not look like a dog.”
