As a part of Unbox Industries' 'Who Goes There?' series, artist and toy maker The Last Zectron created 'Bear God,' a colorful 7" tall figure that follows up a former release that was smaller in scale.
Launched as a project to make vinyl figures more accessible to consumers who are building up their collections, Who Goes There? is an ongoing series that Unbox Industries plans to continue, with Bear God being its second release. The figure is made from a marble soft vinyl material, and comes packaged with a header card. Bear God is mostly covered with a bright lime green paint, but also features hints of bright blue and yellow for contrast.
Bear God will be available on Unbox Industries' website starting September 26th, 2020.
