Light-Up Bear Figurines

Emotionally Unavailable and BE@RBRICK Launch a Red 1000% Figure

— December 1, 2020 — Lifestyle
Emotionally Unavailable works in collaboration with Medicom Toy on a new 100% figure for the season. The new BE@RBRICK collaboration is spotlighted by its light-up design. The red structure is a clear iteration that will mark the duo's sixth time working together.

The slightly transparent body is made from plastic from the head down to the toe done in a tinted red hue and at the chest showcases a large dripping heart in a opaque red. This is one of the classic motifs by Emotionally Unavailable and it lights up with a switch. All of the rustic elements of the design can be seen for a transparent approach, showcasing pivot points, angles, seams, reinforced pieces, and more.
