BE@RBRICK Series 40 Basic 100%

Purism meets innovation: The Basic Letter category from Medicom Toy's Series 40 brings a special surprise. While basic Bearbricks are traditionally known for their simple elegance with a single letter on a solid background, Series 40 sets new standards with a spectacular color-changing material. These thermochromic Bearbricks react to temperature changes and change color depending on ambient heat or touch, turning each figure into a vibrant, interactive collectible.

The Basic Letter Bearbricks form the foundation of every regular series and, with a frequency of 14.58 percent, are the most frequently appearing figures in the blind boxes. There are nine different letter variants in total, which together form the word BE@RBRICK. This playful idea invites collectors to complete all nine letters and display them as a cohesive collection. Each letter appears in high contrast on the figure's translucent body, making the 7 cm tall figure a minimalist design statement.

Series 40, released in summer 2020, marks a significant milestone in Bearbrick history, combining classic design with innovative technology. The color-changing effect adds a whole new dimension to the otherwise pared-down basic Bearbrick figures, transforming them into more than just static collectibles. Whether on a desk, on a shelf, or as part of a larger Bearbrick collection, these figures are guaranteed to turn heads with their dynamic color scheme.

For newcomers to the Bearbrick world, the Basic Letter figures are the perfect starting point, while experienced collectors will appreciate the innovative color-changing twist of the Series 40. Get your hands on this timeless yet modern piece of Japanese designer toy culture.

Is this Bearbrick already pre-assembled?

Yes, all Bearbricks available at MyBearBrick.de are delivered fully assembled by the manufacturer Medicom Toy and are ready to display. So there’s no risk of damaging the model.

What packaging does this Bearbrick come in?

This Bearbrick comes in the official original Medicom Toy packaging (see specifications). This is often a collector’s item in its own right and important for preserving the model’s value. We take care to ensure secure packaging for shipping to prevent damage during transport.

What material is this Bearbrick made of and how do I best care for it?

Most Bearbricks are made of high-quality plastic (ABS plastic), unless otherwise stated in the specifications. For maintenance, we recommend gently dusting the figure regularly with a soft, dry cloth. On chrome versions, fingerprints should be avoided; cloth gloves may be helpful here. Direct sunlight and high humidity should be avoided to protect the colours and material over time.

How does the quality and mobility of this model differ from other sizes?

Medicom Toy’s production quality is very high across all sizes. Larger models (400% or 1000%) often offer more space for detailed designs. However, the joints vary depending on the size: In larger models (400% and 1000%), the arms and legs usually rotate in a single plane. Smaller Bearbricks (especially 100% and 200%) often have ball joints, allowing for more flexible movement of the limbs.
