This bear has some serious street credentials

Culture / May 15, 2020

What is the XLARGE x D*Face x Medicom Be@rbrick collaboration? It’s the limited-edition designer toy you can shop for right now online via Akimbo.

It’s a collectible bear that has all the right street elements from the three brands coming together for this project.

Be@rbrick by Japanese toy manufacturer Medicom is known for its collectible bears molded from different types of materials and colors. This edition continues with how Be@rbrick always works with contemporary artists and designers to excite collectors and hobbyists.

XLARGE is the LA-based streetwear brand dubbed as the “true, OG streetwear brand,” before the days of Instagram.

D*Face is the alter ego of English multimedia street artist Dean Stockton. He is a huge force in street art with his distinct skater-graffiti style. 

You can get Be@rbrick collectibles in the 1000% Charcoal Color, 400% Charcoal Color, and 400% Black Color via akimbo.ph.

And in solidarity with today’s situation, every purchase of the XLARGE x D*Face x Medicom Be@rbrick means that twenty percent of the proceeds will go to the customer’s preferred beneficiary among the following: UP Medical Foundation (to help fund production of test kits), Caritas Manila (to help feed families at risk), PGH Medical Foundation (help provide needs of the frontliners).

You just need to log on to www.akimbo.ph, purchase the Be@rbrick, then select their desired beneficiary. The Be@rbrick will be delivered directly to the customer within a few days.

Akimbo.ph has also created a section on the website aimed at providing information for those who to directly help the victims of the COVID-19 spread in the Philippines.
