BE@RBRICK Series 36 Horror "Pennywise" [IT] (100%)

When Andy Muschietti's IT film stormed the box office in September 2017, becoming the highest-grossing horror film of all time with over $700 million, it was clear: Pennywise had definitively seared himself into the collective memory of a new generation's fears. Just a few months later, in June 2018, Medicom Toy released Series 36, a Bearbrick that masterfully translates Bill Skarsgård's disturbing interpretation of the dancing clown into designer toy form. What makes this figure so remarkable is the meticulous miniaturization of the Victorian-inspired costume created for the film by Emmy Award-winning costume designer Janie Bryant—a timeless design that blends medieval, Renaissance, and Elizabethan elements into a nightmare in gray and red.

The Bearbrick captures Pennywise's iconic appearance with impressive precision: the dusty gray costume with its signature red pom-poms and orange fringe on the sleeves and trouser legs, the opulent Elizabethan-style ruffled collar, the puffed sleeves, and the peplum at the waist that gives the clown a doll-like, organic silhouette. The rendering of Pennywise's face is particularly successful – the intense, squinting eyes with their orange irises, the characteristic red lines running from his forehead down his cheeks to the corners of his mouth, the oversized incisors, and, of course, the fiery red tufts of hair that stick out wildly from the sides of his otherwise bald head. Even at 7 cm tall, this figure conveys the childlike, unsettling quality that made Skarsgård's Pennywise so relentlessly sinister.

The horror category has been a staple of every Bearbrick series release since its early days, immortalizing iconic monsters and villains from film and pop culture over the years. Pennywise joins an illustrious gallery of horrors, proving that horror and designer toy culture are not opposites, but rather mutually enriching. For collectors, this Bearbrick represents more than just merchandise from a successful blockbuster – it's a testament to the horror revival of the late 2010s and a tribute to perhaps Stephen King's most famous antagonist. The fact that Medicom Toy opted for the modern Bill Skarsgård version instead of Tim Curry's classic interpretation from the 1990s miniseries underscores the massive cultural impact of the 2017 film. Whether as the centerpiece of a horror collection or as a creepy accent among other Series 36 figures: This Pennywise Bearbrick brings the darkness of Derry, Maine to your shelf and reminds you that we all float down there.
