Breaking Bad Bearbrick

What are the Breaking Bad Bearbrick? There are two Breaking Bad Be@rbrick. First is Walter White in his protective chemical clothing and second is the adorably sad charred pink teddy bear. Released in 2020 this Breaking Bad & Bearbrick collaboration is available in 1000%, 400%, and 100% sizes. From Walt’s ever present snarl to the one eye teddy bear, this is one of our favorite themes and is sure to be extremely collectible.

Breaking Bad & Bearbrick Collaboration

Medicom and Bearbrick crossed into the Breaking Bad universe in 2020. We could not be happier. The collaboration produced two characters: Walter White in Chemical Protective clothing and the Pink charred teddy bear that landed in Walter’s pool.

Walter is in his ever present “cooking” uniform, protective chemical clothing, industrial apron and breathing respirator. The sides of the respirator are cleverly placed on the bears ears.

The pink partially burnt teddy bear is well done, reminding us of all the damage Walter has caused. The bear is complete with pink fur, a white belly, charred on one half of his body an missing an eye.

Both characters are available in 1000% and a 400% + 100% set.

About Breaking Bad

Breaking Bad is TV series that follows Walter White, a high school chemistry teacher, who is diagnosed with stage three lung cancer. After his diagnosis, he turned to manufacturing crystal meth as a way to provide for his family after his death.

Walter has the chemistry knowledge to produce extremely high quality crystal meth and initially lacks the street distribution knowledge. To help with this he partners with Jesse Pinkman, a former student turned low level drug dealer. The pair work their way up to producing larger and larger quantities, with bigger payouts, more deaths and higher stakes.

Breaking Bad is set in Albuquerque, New Mexico and originally aired from 2008 to 2013.

If you have not seen the show, it is fantastic.

Walter White – Breaking Bad Bearbrick

Walter White, our tragic anti-hero, is dressed in his classic traditional hazmat, unzipped collar and respirator on top of his head. This look is taken straight from the scene where He and Jesse are watching TV while enjoying a beer during a cook. One of the best images ever.

The Walter white Bearbrick starts with the yellow protective suit, He is wearing the iconic yellow protective suite with the collar sightly unzipped. For additional protection he has the blue/gray protective gloves and a dark apron.

On top of his head is the protective aspirator, the two pink air filters are displayed in the bears ears.

Walter’s face is complete with his wire rim glasses, goatee and trademark snarl. With complete attention to detail, you will notice the mole on the right side of his face.

Walter White Bearbrick – 1000% (2020)

We love the 1000% size because it is immediately identifiable from across the room. Seeing a 2 1/2 foot bear of Walter makes him even more menacing.

Walter White Bearbrick – 400% & 100% Set (2020)

The 400% and 100% sizes have the same styling as the 1000% just smaller. This size is great for a desk or when you are tight on space. Seeing Walter and the pink bear next to each other make for a perfect room accent and conversation starter. What better than having a loveable crystal meth chemist dealer displayed in your main living room.

Pink Teddy Bear – Breaking Bad Bearbrick

Fans of Breaking Bad will remember this teddy bear. It features prominently in the show and serves as a fantastic piece of visual foreshadowing. Known as the object that symbolizes the consequences of Walt’s increasingly evil actions, this bear is an obvious choice for a Bearbrick collaboration.

The body is mostly bright pink with white areas on the belly, mouth, and right eye. A peach-colored tongue hangs out of the bear’s mouth. All of this would create an adorable teddy bear image, if it weren’t for the ominous left side. In a definitive reference to events of the show, that side of the bear is a charred black, and the left eye is missing. The left ear is also clear, which is a super cool artistic choice to suggest part of the Bearbrick’s body is missing.

Pink Teddy Bear Bearbrick – 1000% (2020)

It’s a normal-sized teddy bear in the show, but that doesn’t mean yours has to be. The 1000%-sized bear stands about two feet tall and is certain to get attention.

Summary & Next Steps

A show as phenomenal as Breaking Bad definitely deserves at least two Bearbrick. The Walter White Bearbrick is a direct shoutout to the hero/villain main character in his yellow protective suit. Every detail is perfect, from the black apron to the pink air filters.

The Pink Teddy Bear Bearbrick artistically replicates the teddy bear that all Breaking Bad fans know and love. This symbolic moment in the show foreshadowed significant events to come, and the neon-pink bear became a favorite image. The Bearbrick version shows the aftermath of destruction, down to the use of a missing (clear) left ear.
