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. Some of these figures become literal labors of love, like in the case of the Futari-H figure dressed by creator Aki Katsu.
