The Epic & Adventurous Medicom Toy x Pirates of the Caribbean Figure

— July 27, 2011 — Art & Design
The very adventurous Medicom Toy x Pirates of the Caribbean figure is yet another addition to the Bearbrick collection.

Considering how the blockbuster movie was released a while back, it’s a bit surprising to see the Medicom Toy x Pirates of the Caribbean come out now. The new Bearbrick figure features a metallic finish with a skull and crossbones face. Hints of Jack Sparrow can be seen in the work, as the braided beard and red bandanna of the character resemble that of the hearty pirate greatly.

The Medicom Toy x Pirates of the Caribbean figure is a part of the very exclusive Chogkin series. This one is the ninth and final one. Look for it in limited numbers at the Medicom Toy 15th Anniversary Exhibition in Tokyo and the Project 1/6 online store.
