Dr Pepper and Complex Magazine have teamed up on a crazy new promotion entitled the One of a Kind Collaboration Series! For this exciting project Dr Pepper commissioned creators from a number of different industries to create wholly unique new works based on the Dr Pepper brand. These one of a kind pieces include a varsity jacket designed by Crooks and Castles, sunglasses designed by The Dream, and a custom turntable designed by DJ Green Lantern. But the piece that really got The Blot excited was this awesome Dr Pepper resin figure by our friend Tracy Tubera!!!
Tubera is a designer, animator, and “Uber-Illustrator Supreme” who took the iconic Dr Pepper can and turned it into an awesome new character. Now if only we could get Dr Pepper to turn this one of a kind resin figure into a production vinyl figure!!! The picture below shows Tubera’s creative process, from sketch to vector to 3D sculpt. It’s pretty cool to see these behind the scenes photos of what it took to create this figure. It’s also beyond awesome Tracy was included in this project and I really love what he did with this figure. I think it says a lot that a designer toy was included in such an exciting mainstream promotion.
If you wish you could own this one of a kind figure or any of the other pieces created for this promotion then head over to the Dr Pepper One of a Kind Sweepstakes and enter today! All it takes to enter is to tweet what your One of a Kind Style is and by including the hashtag #OneOfAKindStyle. Pretty easy, right!?!
