There's about a month left before Valentine's Day pops up and for those looking for a gift, perhaps the Medicom Toy Bearbrick 'Valentine's Day' 2012 release will suffice.
The toy brand continues its tradition in releasing designer figures just for that special day for couples. The Medicom Toy Bearbrick 'Valentine's Day' 2012 this year has an all pink body surrounded by silver hearts. The chest bears the words "Love & Happy Valentine" and there's one silver heart that acts as the right eye. The lower back of the figure has the numbers "12,2,14" inscribed onto it, which of course, is the date of the holiday.
Medicom Toy's Valentine's Bearbrick probably leans more towards the female population, but there's no reason guys can't have it as a collector's item.
