In an exciting three-way collaboration, STASH, Albino & Preto, and Medicom Toy have teamed up to deliver a new 100/400% BE@RBRICK figure set. The new set draws heavily from the styles and imagery of jiu-jitsu, offering fans of these three brands a new one-of-a-kind product that can be added to their collections.

Here, the signature [Medicom Toy BE](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/takahiromiyashitathesoloist)@RBRICK comes dressed in a jiu-jitsu kimono donning STASH’s fat cap and go-to blue hues. Meanwhile, Albino & Preto logos are featured along both of the figurine's arms, while STASH"s iconic tag is found on the front leg, and 'Albino and Preto' text is printed on the back. Both figurines come packaged in a special gloss-finished co-branded box.

The [STASH x Albino & Preto Medicom](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/stash-1) Toy BE@RBRICK is set to drop on March 30 on [A&P's](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ap-x-oakley-collection) website.
