KISS Be@rbrick Figures Coming This Fall

July 11, 2008

Pictured below are the new KISS Be@rbrick figures from licensee MediCom Toy/Sideshow Collectibles. This stylized tribute to the KISS legacy features each band member in Be@rbrick form — The Starchild, The Catman, The Spaceman and The Demon. Look for the KISS Be@rbricks this fall.

Be@rbrick is a collectible toy designed and produced by MediCom Toy Incorporated. The name is derived from the fact that the figure is a cartoon-style representation of a bear, and that it is a variation of MediCom's Kubrick design. The "@" sign in the place of the letter "a" is a visual device that is a part of the Be@rbrick brand, and as such, a trademark of MediCom Toy.

The figure is an anthropomorphized bear with an extremely simplified form and a pot belly. Each plastic figure features nine parts (widely referred to as tools in the toy industry): head, torso, hips, arms, hands, and legs; these nine tools allow eight points of articulation: swivel head, swivel waist, ball joint arms, swivel wrists, and ball joint legs.
