Inagi City, Tokyo, Japan is drumming up tourism by celebrating the work of mechanical designer and Inagi native Kunio Okawara with an unusual promotion: the installation of a 2 meter (6.6 feet) tall monument of Yatter Wan, the loveable mecha from Yatterman.
The monument will be installed outside of Minami-Tama Station, a railway station in Inagi City.
Inagi City will also be installing a 1.7 meter (5.6 feet) tall statue of their local mascot character, Inagi Nashinosuke Tokeidai, which was co-designed by Okawara.
