Nagoya Store's Giant Mannequin Gets Wookie Makeover
posted on by Lynzee Loveridge
The Meitetsu Department Store in Nagoya, Japan has a distinctive mannequin outside its men's department. The mannequin is known locally as Nana-chan, and she's a popular landmark for meet ups because she's easy to spot in the shopping district —she's 20 feet tall. The staff change her outfits biweekly but her latest attire is far more furry than usual.
On June 13, Nana "transformed" into the Star Wars franchise's favorite Wookie, Chewbacca. She'll keep the hairy appearance until June 29. The collaboration is promoting the latest film Solo: A Star Wars Story film that opened in the United States on May 25 and will premiere in Japan on June 29.
The lanky Nana-chan transformed into Naruto in 2014 to promote the The Last -Naruto the Movie- film
