Kubrick

Kubrick is a line of collectible block-style figures, produced by Medicom Toy and started in 2000. Originally created by the founder of Medicom and a previous Lego employee, this line represents characters taken from various worldwide popular media in a block style, similar to the figures from the Playmobil and Lego toy lines.

Figures are usually about 6 cm tall, but subsequently 2 other standard sizes appeared, calling for the current nomenclature system: They sometimes come with accessories or alternative limbs, and always released with fixed quantities as one shots. For this reason, Kubrick figures are considered rare collectibles and their value on second-hand markets is usually quite high.
 * Kubrick 100% designates regular 6 cm tall figures,
 * Kubrick 400% for 24 cm tall figures,
 * Kubrick 1000% for 60 cm tall figures.

The Kubrick brand name and logo style is a direct reference to the director Stanley Kubrick. The brand name is also a pun as Kubrick is pronounced Kyūburikku キューブリック in Japanese, which is homophonous to 9 brick (きゅう ブリック). Indeed, Kubrick figures are composed of 9 bricks / elements: head, torso, hips, two arms, two hands, and two legs.
