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.

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.
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.
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.
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.

Great purchase, great customer service
“I bought my first Be@rbrick Bear, Jean-Michel Basquiat, absolutely love it. There was an issue with delivery of my package due to UK Customs but Michael Z. was really helpful and sorted it really quickly. I am sure this will not be my last Be@rbrick purchase!”
