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

[โ€“] serenissi@lemmy.world 0 points 2 months ago (3 children)

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).

Looks more like Mecha-Godzilla, tho.

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

catgirl mecha, if we're being precise.

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

Nothing comes between a horse girl and her daddyโ€™s money.

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

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!

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?

[โ€“] WoodScientist@lemmy.world 0 points 2 months ago (2 children)

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.

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

Gerontofication, in this case.

The rich are going to take every last thing from us

[โ€“] tdawg@lemmy.world 0 points 2 months ago

just get your slightly used weirdly moist tail used at half off!

taps fingers together rhythmically
Good, gooood. It's all coming together.

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

They need to increase their birthrate somehow.
