Panda Transformer

I am very fond of these strange Japanese plush toys, where animals are dressed up as other animals. As my friend James Dugan put it, it's strange because the animal is playing dress up, the way a human does. Another attempt of us humans anthropomorphizing animals. They are also very very cute. This is "Panda as a Dog":

At first glance, it looks like a yellow dog.

But when you get closer, you see it's someone dressed as a dog.

In fact, it's a panda dressed as a dog!

God, that's pretty damn cute. So cute it's sick.

 

i'd like to see it go one level deeper- like a dog in a panda costume in a koala outfit.

 

Now you're talking Ricky Jay territory, my friend.

on snap, a comment from 990000, my favorite website!

 

that's cute. Have I seen this before? did I buy it for you?

 


Mommy, you did buy it for me. It was winter 1999-2000, and I bought many for my friends. We got them when Loft at Seibu was cool.

 

Pandas Are The Shit So Don't Ever Foget IT.....
