Don't hide it Japan, you're just doing this to make cat girls

[-] lowleveldata@programming.dev 108 points 23 hours ago

Why stop there? I want my dog and fox and wolf girls too

[-] WoodScientist@lemmy.world 27 points 21 hours ago

Won't someone think of the poor working class furries? A fur suit can already cost 10 or 20 grand. Now they're going to have to add cyborg body parts to the mix as well? Talk about gentrification!

Gerontofication, in this case.

Gentoworifation

The rich are going to take every last thing from us

[-] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 1 points 16 hours ago

wait what. i made one for 200 bucks that the theater program i made it for is still using 30 years later (i build shit to last). you mean i could make money doing that?

[-] WoodScientist@lemmy.world 4 points 14 hours ago

I'm not in that community myself, but from what I hear a high quality for suit can cost $10-20k. Not sure what differences in construction may exist between those and what you made. But some artists definitely make decent livings making them.

Cooling systems, animatronics, durability.

Iโ€™m not part of that community, but Iโ€™ve built props for advertisements and museum installations; durability and reliability are where most of the money is, especially in low volume products.

Mmhmm. A nice head is 2kUSD or more. A whole custom suit starts at maybe 10, 15k, and can easily exceed 20.

[-] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 2 points 8 hours ago

I can believe it for the head. I had to build a horse head the next year and it was hard as fuck.

Luckily you can already get those at your local stable AND with a bit of leather at your local bdsm club!

[-] Tier1BuildABear@lemmy.world 82 points 22 hours ago

Also these ears will help to uh, absorb the echoes and extra noise of the world around you. Yeah.

[-] Sergio@piefed.social 15 points 23 hours ago

Looks more like Mecha-Godzilla, tho.

[-] naught101@lemmy.world 10 points 22 hours ago

So, uh, you reckon you could fit eight of those on one person?

[-] xx3rawr@sh.itjust.works 1 points 19 hours ago

I think we can do just four

They need to increase their birthrate somehow.

[-] serenissi@lemmy.world 4 points 20 hours ago

contrary to popular beliefs real cat girls do exist in Japan. there is more information on the internet https://redlib.orangenet.cc/r/realscatgirls . unfortunately it's on reddit not on lemmy (yet).

no, I removed the default upvote

[-] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 1 points 16 hours ago

catgirl mecha, if we're being precise.

[-] Zachariah@lemmy.world 1 points 20 hours ago

Is it prehensile? This could lead to octopus-like abilities if you added more than one.
