While DJI is no stranger to innovation in the drone world, this is something completely new, even by this company's standards. However, don't get too excited gearheads, because it's not really what you might expect. 

Compared to the standard version, the company's latest Spark drone hasn't changed at all, still possessing a 16-minute flight time and boasting a two-mile range complete with a 2-axis gimbal and 12-megapixel camera.

In one of the weirder partnerships we've seen, however, the drone company has partnered with a messaging app called Line to produce a drone based off one of their Line Friend characters. So if you ever wanted a drone with a cartoon bear on it, now is the time to strike.

The bear's name is Brown and it seems like other characters may be on their way too, but why? The special-edition DJI Spark is brown and has the bear's image plastered all over the top. Its face is also on top of the faceplate between the two antennas of the remote control. Perhaps these will be a collector's item one day?

If you're interested in buying one for yourself, you now can at DJI's website (or hold off and wait until they come out with one for a rabbit).
