DesignerCon Artist Series BE@RBRICKS for #DCON2019
UPDATED: All FIVE BE@RBRICKS have been revealed, and they will be apart of a box-set (Priced at US$100) available at the Medicom Toy booth #605 (Quantity Unknown). Scroll to the bottom of this post to view all reveals! And NO, Scott Tolleson's BB is not in the line-up (Available separately).
Ok, so this is what we know about the "DesignerCon Artist Series BE@RBRICKS" - which quite frankly is all aesthetic and not much by way of information - BUT, we know that they'll be 100% (AKA 7cm tall), and will be released at DesignerCon 2019 (duh) on Nov 22 to 24th, and no doubt subsequently online afters.
As of this blog-feature, a total of three Western artists have revealed their BE@RBRICKS - and by that I mean actual physical pieces, not CG/3D-rendererd or doodled turnarounds: KaNO (IG @kanokid), "Ringo" by Joe Ledbetter (IG @joe_ledbetter) and DesignerCon's mascot character "Vincent" by Scott Tolleson's (IG @mrscotttolleson) is not immortalised as a BB!
UPDATED: Above features a look at the BACK of Tristan Eaton's BB-design (via @tristaneaton).
What we do not know is:
(1) What is the quantity per design? Or will it be a Open Edition?
(2) Will they available as a blind box series, or a straight-up box-set?
(3) How many artists are in the series?
(4) Will they be available at the DesignerCon main merch booth? Medicom Toys' Booth 605 (they are after all one of the sponsors for DCON and producing the BBs), or maybe even the 3D Retro booth?
Answers when I have them. Reveals when they are ... well, "revealed"! Bookmark THIS LINK to keep track, thanks!
If you remember your DCON-toy-news, 2018's annual event also showcased a 3" Dunny series released by Kidrobot! Now THAT had a TON of artists involved!
