Overview

Tagline

Wise dog never barks.

B@WBRICK is a Japanese collectible toy/figure series launched by Medicom Toy in 2002. Based on KUBRICK’s block-shaped figures, it developed into a line of quadrupedal figures modeled on dogs, including Miniature Pinschers, Shiba Inu, Labrador Retrievers, Chihuahuas, and Shetland Sheepdogs. Series 1–3 and limited editions were released, and the line was also used for Nike and Andy Warhol-related products. It is now regarded as a discontinued series with no new releases.

B@WBRICK is an animal-themed spin-off series that MEDICOM TOY introduced alongside its KUBRICK and BE@RBRICK lines, turning dogs, cats, robot dogs, and other subjects into small four-legged animal-shaped figures. Product records from 2002–2003 have been confirmed, and the series is characterized by adapting the block-like forms associated with KUBRICK to animal depictions. It took on subjects and silhouettes distinct from BE@RBRICK’s bear-shaped body and KUBRICK’s human form. In the current lineup, it is not a focus of new releases but is positioned as a name with strong archival significance, representing MEDICOM TOY’s early collectible offerings.
