Porter x Karimoku x Medicom Toy 400% Bearbrick

Absolutely beautiful! Medicom's wooden Be@rbricks have always been amazing in quality and materials. Combined with Porter, makes this pretty difficult to not add to the collection. Unfortunately, the price tag for this version is slightly out of reach...

"2012 marks the 77th anniversary of Yoshida & Co (the makers of Porter bags), and to celebrate, the heritage luggage and accessory label is going big — 400% big. They’ve enlisted the help of Japanese Karimoku craftsmen to handcraft a giant Medicom Bearbrick out of exotic Padauk wood. Naturally, the bears are being produced in exceptionally limited quantities — each, carrying two bags inspired by Yoshida’s iconic ‘Porter silhouette,’ used in the company’s classic branding campaigns. The 400% Bearbrick isn’t expected to be available for purchase until October 2012, which will leave you plenty of time to save, as it’ll set you back ￥74,000 JPY (approximately $915 USD)." - Hypebeast
