profile of a be@rbrick collector
In the Philippines, I've only met two other people who collect Be@rbricks. One is a charming 10 year old girl named Zoe (left), daughter of one of the creative directors in our office. Once, I gave her a Thermo Be@rbrick which changed color according to temperature. Her mother, Kat, told me that upon coming home one night, she opened their freezer to find a pale, frosty Be@rbrick sitting on the ice tray, right next to a slab of frozen Angus.
The other collector is a more unlikely kind of toy geek. His name is Jason (right), a hunky Filipino-Australian commerical model. During one of our shoots (for a product our ad agency handled), he revealed that he owned seventy (70) Be@rbricks. And that he always carried a bear with him (one with an Australian flag motif) whenever he traveled away from home. How sweet!

Your story about jason reminds of little kids who never leave home without their teddy bear. If you were to be out of home or country for a while, what bearbrick would you bring with you? Just curious.
I would probably bring my 'Year of the Dog' Be@rbrick, to remind me of my dog, Kenzo who can't travel with me.
whats his full name?? the jason! so handsome!
His surname was Pennings, I believe.
