The UNKLE ReAction Figure was released in 2017 as the first collaboration between James Lavelle / Unkle and Super7, and a celebration of the 25th Anniversary of Unkle. The pointman figure design was taken from Unkle's 1998 Unkle 77 Toy, designed by Ben Drury and based on artwork by Futura2000.

The UNKLE ReAction Figure - Boxset was first announced by HYPEBEAST on July 12 2017[1], which was followed by an official announcement from Super7 on July 13[2]. They reported the figures would be launching at an UNKLE pop-up shop in the Super7 San Diego store on Saturday 22nd of July for San Diego Comic-Con, along with exclusive Super7 x UNKLE apparel made available featuring designs inspired by the figures. James Lavelle also was set to make an in-store appearance on the 22nd as part of the launch.[3]

The UNKLE77 figure comes in a "life-size" UNKLE77 head box that also contains one of three Unkle 7″ records and a clear record adapter that doubles as a display stand. There are three different box sets: A pink one that contains a single of “The Road” with a pink camo figure, a blue set containing the single “Nowhere to Run” with a blue camo figure, and a green set containing a copy of the single “Looking for the Rain” and a green camo action figure. The different boxes are limited to 500 versions of each.

Initial prices for the figures were $50 each, with T-shirts $30, a jacket $60, hoodie $50, and long sleeve tee $40.[4]
