Bearbrick Earth (Columbia Space Shuttle) 1000%

Product Description

The BE@RBRICK Earth Columbia Space Shuttle 1000% is a large-format display BE@RBRICK produced by Medicom Toy in collaboration with imagery and licensing tied to NASA's Space Shuttle Columbia, featuring the Space Shuttle graphic applied to the 1000% scale BE@RBRICK body in an edition that celebrates one of the most culturally and scientifically significant spacecraft in American and global aerospace history, with Columbia having been the first Space Shuttle orbiter to fly in space during its April 1981 maiden voyage and having completed 27 missions before its tragic destruction during reentry on February 1, 2003. The Earth subject matter in the product name references the view of Earth from space as one of the defining visual symbols of the Space Age that Columbia and the Space Shuttle program collectively represent, connecting the BE@RBRICK's design to the iconic photographs of Earth taken from orbit that became among the most reproduced and most culturally transformative images in human history, positioning this BE@RBRICK within the category of space exploration and science tribute objects that Medicom Toy has produced across its 1000% and other formats for culturally significant institutional subjects. At the 1000% scale, approximately 70 centimeters tall, the Columbia Space Shuttle BE@RBRICK is designed as a display piece for spaces where a dedication to space exploration, scientific achievement, or NASA's cultural legacy creates the context in which the object's subject matter reads with its full intended weight.

The 1000% format's production quantities for subject-matter collaboration releases like the Columbia Space Shuttle version are typically limited relative to the broader BE@RBRICK consumer catalog, with institutional and historical subject matter editions reaching collectors who specifically seek out BE@RBRICKs that combine the figure's established collectible format with content that references significant cultural or scientific heritage. Released July 1, 2019 at $475 retail, the Earth Columbia Space Shuttle 1000% arrived at a price point that reflects both the 1000% scale's inherent material and production cost and the collaboration's institutional subject matter premium within the broader BE@RBRICK 1000% secondary market context.

The Bearbrick Earth Columbia Space Shuttle 1000 was released on July 1, 2019 with a retail price of $475.
