Following their collaboration earlier this year, Medicom Toy once again connects with the Estate of Jean-Michel Basquiat to release a new limited edition BE@RBRICK in varying sizes: 100%, 400%, and 1000%. The partnered collectible sees the late iconic artist’s ‘Untitled (Jackson)’ artwork from 1982 wrapping the figure entirely. Each version features the same painting except with slightly different layouts due to their respective measurements.

The BE@RBRICK will launch this October 13 at Medicom Toy stockists. Pricing ranges between ¥10,800 JPY to¥48,000 JPY (approx. $96 USD – $427 USD). Elsewhere in design, Max Lamb recently unveiled his “Aluminum Thermal Spray Series” of furniture.
