Designer toy giant [Medicom Toy](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bearbrick-1) has unveiled a [limited-edition figure](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fisherprice-little-people-x-andre-saraiva) called the [Bearbrick](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/berbrick-x-tamagotchi) Prodigy.

For those who aren't too familiar with music, The Prodigy is a popular electro-dance group in the UK. Medicom Toy based this Bearbrick Prodigy toy's design on Prodigy's last album 'Invaders Must Die.' The figure is black and orange in color, with the name of the album on the front, and a silhouette of the band on its back. The Bearbrick Prodigy is expected to be released early this year.
