What You Are Getting
A complete two-figure set of Medicom Toy's BE@RBRICK Apollo 17 Astronaut, manufactured under official permission of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA). The 400% (~11"/28 cm) and 100% (~2.75"/7 cm) figures are dressed in the iconic A7L lunar EVA spacesuit: the gold-tinted reflective sun visor, the official Apollo 17 mission patch by Robert McCall on the chest, NASA "meatball" insignia on the left arm, American flag on the right, the RCU (Remote Control Unit) control panel rendered across the torso, and the signature blue lunar overshoes. The red command stripe runs down the back of the helmet — the field marking used to distinguish the mission Commander on EVA. The detail level is exceptional.
Both figures are brand-new and unopened, with the embossed BE@RBRICK and MEDICOM TOY foot stamps verified, the holographic Medicom serial sticker intact (serial: B05103420), and the original HiddenTag scannable authentication card included — Medicom's premium-tier verification system that allows buyers to confirm authenticity directly via the official HiddenTag app. Ships insured from a vetted San Francisco gallery.

About the Mission — Apollo 17
Apollo 17 launched on December 7, 1972 and remains the final crewed mission to the Moon. Commander Eugene "Gene" Cernan, Command Module Pilot Ronald Evans, and Lunar Module Pilot Harrison "Jack" Schmitt — the first and only scientist-astronaut (a geologist) ever to walk on the Moon — landed in the Taurus-Littrow valley and conducted three EVAs totaling more than 22 hours on the lunar surface, traversing 35 km in the Lunar Roving Vehicle and returning 110 kg of samples.
As Cernan ascended the LM ladder for the final time on December 14, 1972, he delivered the closing line of the Apollo era: "We leave as we came, and, God willing, as we shall return, with peace and hope for all mankind." No human has walked on another celestial body since.
The Apollo 17 mission patch — designed by space artist Robert McCall — features a profile bust of Apollo, the Greek god of the sun, alongside an American eagle, three white stars (one for each crew member), and the planet Saturn beyond, symbolizing the program's culmination and humanity's reach into deep space. It is one of the most celebrated emblems in the history of spaceflight design.
About the Suit — A7L Lunar EVA
The figure renders the Apollo Block II A7L pressure suit — the iconic white EVA suit worn during all six Apollo lunar landings. Manufactured by ILC Dover (Delaware), the A7L combined a multi-layer thermal/micrometeoroid garment over a Liquid Cooling and Ventilation Garment, fed by a backpack-mounted Portable Life Support System (PLSS) controlled via the chest-mounted Remote Control Unit (RCU). The gold-tinted Lunar EVA Visor Assembly reduced solar glare on the airless lunar surface — that gold layer is vapor-deposited over polycarbonate. The suit's signature is the red commander stripe running down the helmet and arms, introduced after Apollo 13 to distinguish CDR from LMP in mission photography. Cernan wore this configuration for the Apollo 17 EVAs.
About Medicom Toy & BE@RBRICK
Founded in Tokyo in 1996, Medicom Toy launched the BE@RBRICK platform in 2001 — a stylized bear-form vinyl figure built as a deliberately blank canvas for collaboration. Two decades on, BE@RBRICK has become one of the most aggressively collected designer toy lines in the world, with collaborations spanning KAWS, Banksy, the Andy Warhol Foundation, Basquiat, Keith Haring, Karimoku, BAPE, Chanel, Disney, and NASA.
The Apollo 17 release sits in Medicom's NASA-licensed family alongside the Project Mercury Astronaut and Apollo 11 Moon Footprints sets. It is the most recent and arguably the most accomplished of the three — the first NASA BE@RBRICK release to ship with the new HiddenTag scannable authentication system, which represents Medicom's most advanced anti-counterfeiting verification to date.
