They were not. The boxes were hand-built from \u003cstrong\u003eplywood\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003esilkscreen-printed\u003c\/strong\u003e by Warhol's studio to be visually indistinguishable from the cardboard originals (which had themselves been designed, in a fitting twist, by an Abstract Expressionist painter named James Harvey, who supported his fine-art practice with commercial illustration work).\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cp style=\"margin: 0 0 12px 0;\"\u003eThe philosopher \u003cstrong\u003eArthur Danto\u003c\/strong\u003e famously argued in \u003cem\u003eThe Transfiguration of the Commonplace\u003c\/em\u003e (1981) that the Brillo Boxes ended a particular epoch of art history — they made plain that the difference between an artwork and a non-artwork could no longer be located in the object itself, because Warhol's box and the supermarket box were perceptually identical. The work became the foundational text of conceptual art. Original 1964 Brillo Boxes have sold at auction for \u003cstrong\u003eover $3 million each\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cp style=\"margin: 0;\"\u003eMedicom Toy's BE@RBRICK release wraps the Brillo Box's red, white, and blue commercial graphics — \"Brillo soap pads \/ with rust resister \/ shines aluminum fast \/ 24 Giant Size Pkgs.\" — around the iconic ursine silhouette, completing a 56-year loop: an object designed by an artist (Harvey) was claimed as art by another artist (Warhol), and is now re-issued as a designer toy.

A film carrying the Brillo graphics is floated on the surface of a water bath; the figure is dipped through the floating film, which adheres around the figure's complex curves. Because the film deforms slightly differently on each dip, \u003cstrong\u003eevery figure in the edition has a subtly unique pattern\u003c\/strong\u003e — different brand-mark placements, different fold lines, different rotational alignment.
