Neighbor Totoro Auspicious Ornament: Auspicious Totoro From Studio Ghibli

The figurine depicts Totoro holding a red autumn leaf shaped like a sea bream, which in Japanese is called tai and is associated with the word medetai, meaning "auspicious" or "happy". On its back, a crayfish made of autumn leaves is attached to a fishing rod, another auspicious symbol. The pose is also similar to the fisherman god Ebisu, who is believed to bring good fortune and prosperity. The figure is an official Studio Ghibli merchandise, typically made of polyester resin and cotton, and stands approximately 6.1 inches tall. It was released in late December 2018 in Japan. 91725 A005
