ToyCyte: Toy Culture Collected

Medicom Toy collaborated with Kim SongHe on a special Be@rbrick containing objects in the Be@rbrick itself. (This reminds me of some of the recent Runcible figures by Cris Rose.) The pair of 100% & 400% Be@rbricks will be available on November 18th at Project 1/6 in Tokyo, Japan at  ¥1575 (~$16 USD) for 100% and  ¥7140  (~$72 USD) for 400%.

Kim Songhe is a Korean national born in Tokyo on January 8th, 1982. After her graduation from Oda Design Institute in Tokyo, she got inspired to create art sculptures by using what some people may consider garbage or junk. Currently, her main work consists of designing shop window displays as well as her creation of original made-to-order chandeliers. Most of her work is crafted by hand with natural materials and reusable wastes. She says that she wants to bring new life to objects that were almost dying. The mood and style of her work is very conceptual, chic, and romantic. [via ToyBeast]
