The Beast Is Back (aka Chris Lee) is at Designer Con 2019 this weekend in Anaheim, CA where he will be debuting a new soft vinyl figure of his adorable Rhino Beetle! How freaking cute is this little guy!?! For DCon, The Beast Is Back has teamed up with Unbox Industries to release three Designer Con 2019 exclusive colorways of the figure: Peach Mist, Midnight Plum and Purple Soda.
The “Peach Mist” Rhino Beetle will be available at The Beast is Back DCon booth #2101, the “Midnight Plum” Rhino Beetle will only be available at the Unbox Industries DCon booth #1415, while the “Purple Soda” Rhino Beetle will be available at both booths. Each figure comes bagged with an illustrated header card, and will retail for around $50.
Chris gave a little background information on this exciting new figure (via his Instagram page): “I worked closely with the amazing team at Unbox Industries over the past 11 months to tweak the original resin version of the sculpt to work in vinyl. While small things changed across the board for technical reasons, the biggest change was the addition of a fully articulated head that just adds a ton of extra personality to the figure. Ever wished the original Rhino Beetle could do a cute head tilt? Well, you can do that now! The log base also includes little slots for the figure’s feet so it doesn't slide off.”
