The flag of Papua New Guinea is one of the most extraordinary national flags in the world and has a special history: It was designed in 1971 by Susan Karike, then a 15-year-old student who won a nationwide competition. Her creative vision overcame the colonial past and became a symbol of an independent Papua New Guinea.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n \u003cp\u003eThe Bearbrick brings this symbolic flag to life on the 7 cm tall figure with precision. The diagonal division from the top left corner to the bottom right corner separates the bright red of the upper half from the deep black of the lower half. In the red area floats the golden Raggiana bird of paradise, an endemic bird of Papua New Guinea and a national symbol of freedom and cultural identity. Its outstretched flight feathers symbolize the nation's independence. The black area bears the five white stars of the Southern Cross, which mark Papua New Guinea's position in the Southern Hemisphere and represent its connection to other South Pacific nations. Red and black are traditional colors of many Papua New Guinean tribes and connect the modern nation to its indigenous roots.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n \u003cp\u003eWith a rarity of only 5.2% within the Series 39 Blind Boxes, this Flag Bearbrick is one of the harder-to-find designs. For collectors who specialize in national flags or appreciate the cultural diversity of the Pacific island nations, this figure is an absolute must-have. The combination of historical significance, unique design, and limited availability makes this Papua New Guinea Bearbrick a valuable collectible, honoring the fascinating history of one of the most culturally diverse countries on earth in miniature format.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Medicom Toy","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52000505037066,"sku":"B@S3904","price":29.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0843\/3133\/1850\/files\/bearbrick-series-39-flag-papua-new-guinea-100-herstellerbild.webp?v=1761207984","url":"https:\/\/www.mybearbrick.de\/en\/products\/bearbrick-series-39-flag-papua-new-guinea-100","provider":"MyBearBrick","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
