A latecomer to the Disney stable, Big Hero 6 (or Baymax in Japanese) managed in ten years to create a big enough fan base to justify a TV series, manga, comics, video games, and theme park attractions. A big part of its fan base is in Japan and that can be put down to the various borrowings from Japanese culture from the setting for the film (the city of San Fransokyo) up to and including the sumo wrestler look of the protagonist, the Baymax robot. The resemblance is enough to inspire a Baymax-themed collaboration between sumo and Disney, and the Sumo Big Hero 6 Towel is a winning part of that partnership.
You can choose between two Sumo Big Hero 6 Bath Towel sizes: the bath towel (60 x 120 cm or 2 x 3.9 ft) and the face towel (34 x 80 cm or 1.1 x 2.6 ft). They are both made of 100% cotton and feature Baymax with a sumo wrestler's chonmage topknot, against a background with thick white ropes (another sumo symbol: they're the belts worn by yokozuna sumo champions), and next to a red strip with Baymax's name written in Japanese!
