A Krusty the Clown version of Medicom Toy's iconic Bearbrick has surfaced. The release follows an earlier one which included versions of Homer and Bart Simpson as well.
Similarly to the other's, the Krusty the Clown figurine features smooth bear-like ears and a simple standing body. The cartoon character's fuzzy blue hair is therefore cut off slightly by this, however the recreation is still fully representative of the original. This is maintained by Krusty the Clown's pink short-sleeve shirt, blue bow-tie, lime pants, white gloves and bright red shoes.
Medicom Toy surely got the character's toothy smile, red nose and slightly crazed eyes just right as well. In addition to his, Medicom Toy coats the figurine's face in white paint, which contrasts with the yellow skin shown on its arms.
