If you cant afford or easily get hold of a dakimakura then how about downloading the 10MB version of this illustration of Kotone Kusuhara from Moe Imouto.

And do what?  Print it out on a computer in several sheets and pin it together on a bed spread?

I'd rather just buy the printed sheet.  It is nice, indeed!

because 1 dakimakura = ~2 pvc figures = few color printer cartridges.

There are Iron-on t-shirt print papers.
You print using your normal ink jet printer. Place the paper on any fabric (well most fabrics), and iron away~

Only problem is they come in A4 sheets....
... so you'll have to place 5 in a row to cover 150cm ^^;;;;

Oh and 2-3 columns! since it's 50cm wide!

Too expensive! Just buy a real one!

someone might want to print it on a pillow case with a higher threadcount.

Nice one, though I already own 2 and my 3rd is incoming. Dakimakura takes up alot of space.. in bed.

Hmmm.. very nice.
Also, always remember guys: DIY opens the possibilities to add certain "plugins" to the dakimakura!

snap snap grim grim wink wink know what I mean?

If you go to http://moe.imouto.org/post (Moe Imouto post main) and search for dakimakura you will find even more of them. Alot of them have not been labeled dakimakura though, so if you want to find `em all your gonna need to go through all 1309 pages... So far I managed to find 104 usable dakimakura pics there (100 pages down, 1209 to go). Now all I need is to find a shop that can print them. 

I`m not in a hurry though, as I own 5 dakimakura already....
Totalling a sick 437.02 Euro`s (or about $685.94), exorbitant shipping prices and covers included.

As much as I'd like to make my own dakimakura, I'm living with my mother and brother right now, so I'm pretty sure they won't appreciate me having one at home even though I'll only be using it for hugging. Perhaps I'll give it a go once I get my own place sometime in the future.
