Bearbrick Series 5 Thermo 100% Begleitkarte
With the original Medicom Toy card

This extraordinary Bearbrick from Series 5, released in December 2002, belongs to the fascinating Jelly Bean category and boasts a spectacular thermochromic property: the translucent red material reacts to temperature changes, altering its color intensity depending on the heat applied. Touching the figure leaves visible marks in the form of color changes – an interactive collecting experience that transforms Bearbricks into more than just static display objects.

The Jellybean series is characterized by its signature translucent design, which gives the Bearbrick a special depth and luminosity. This thermochromic model adds an extra dimension: the vibrant red shifts between different shades when the material is exposed to heat. Whether from sunlight, room temperature, or direct touch, the figure becomes a living work of art, constantly changing and never looking the same. These early thermochromic experiments from Series 5 paved the way for later temperature-sensitive releases and demonstrate Medicom Toys' innovative spirit right from its early days.

Series 5, released in late 2002, is among the most sought-after vintage Bearbrick series. At a time when the series was just beginning to evolve from a hidden gem to a global phenomenon, Medicom Toy was already experimenting with unusual materials and effects. The translucent design with its thermochromic function was highly innovative at the time and remains a fascinating feature rarely found in modern releases. The brilliant red color in its original state exudes energy and dynamism – typical of the confident aesthetic of the early 2000s.

As a jellybean figure, this Bearbrick is a statement piece for collectors seeking something special. The combination of translucency, vibrant color, and interactive thermochromic technology makes it a highlight of any collection. Standing 7 cm tall in the classic 100% scale, it embodies the experimental pioneering era of the designer toy movement and remains a timeless testament to Medicom Toys' creative vision.
