One Man's Figure Collection Includes Both Life-Size Megumi, Rem

posted on by Lynzee Loveridge
Each figure costs at least US$20k

Life-size anime character statues are impressive in both size and price. Each one roughly costs two million yen (US$20,000) and at five foot tall, they can't just be tucked away in a closet when space gets tight. That might be why some buyers turn around and try to resell the statues.

Figure collector and photographer Youtsuki wouldn't dream of getting rid of his life-size figures. He already owns at least two. His Twitter account shows that he's made a home for both life-size Megumi Kato from Saekano and Rem from Re:Zero.

Youtsuki's home is pretty distinctive, namely for being huge. His Twitter profile claims he's a regular office worker but the images on his Twitter account tell a different story. Photos show luxury vehicles, an entire room dedicated to his figures, expensive fashion accessories, excursions to the golf course, and eating out at high-end restaurants. He's also the owner of some pretty cute cats.

He's amassed a large following on social media where he posts posed (and usually sexy) photos of his figure collection.
