BE@RBRICK Series 9 Flag "Netherlands" (100%)

With Series 9 in 2004, Medicom Toy continued the legendary Blind Box tradition of Bearbricks, once again releasing a colorful mix of diverse themes. This model comes from the popular Flag category, one of the most classic and internationally celebrated series in the entire Bearbrick cosmos. Instead of an elaborate artist motif, the focus here is on a highly reduced, yet all the more effective idea: the national flag as a graphic statement on the iconic bear shape.

The bear's body sports the colors of the Dutch tricolor, translating them into clear, horizontal stripes. Red, white, and blue extend across the head, torso, and legs, transforming the familiar silhouette into a striking color field. The glossy surface, standing at approximately 7 cm tall, beautifully highlights the vibrant tones, while retaining the typical movable joints in the head, arms, and legs. The appeal lies precisely in its simplicity: the flag is directly transferred to the bear's design language, without distracting details.

As a single figure in the 100% format, this model is a compact collector's item that fits perfectly into a country or flag collection. The Flag series enjoys a special status among collectors worldwide because it charmingly combines national identity and Bearbrick aesthetics. A model from an older series like Series 9 is also a piece of collector's history and is no longer regularly available in stores today.

Whether as a tribute to the Netherlands, an addition to your flag collection, or a colorful eye-catcher on the shelf – this small figure brings character and international flair. For those who love Bearbricks and have a connection to the colors of Oranje, this is an ideal collectible and gift item to grab.
