BAPE works with Medicom Toy on a special BAPE BE@RBRICK launch with the LEGACY CAMO SHARK collection. It features three different sizes, and the toys are set to launch in either a 100% range, 400%, or 1000% variation. The signature BAPE Flyer pattern is the spotlight of the capsule, which features the iconic all-over print.
The FLYER visual is also applied to the rest of the BAPE BE@RBRICKs in all sizes. Notably, the two larger sizes are made with a special edition SHARK HOODIE to come along with it. Part of the hoodie is also made with the brand's signature camouflage pattern. The largest variation also has a set of shark-like teeth and eyes. The hoodie comes in red, navy, and grey.
