Uglydog Gets Some Sun

We were alarmed to notice our tiny glass Uglydog was missing from his air-cushioned case.  Where in the world could such a little fellow be?

We sent out an all points bulletin to our Ugly Shire and soon discovered our tiny glass Uglydog is all Uglydoll indeed.  He took himself out to inspect his new digs and to get a bit of sun.   We found him proudly perched atop the glowing sun and shining just as brightly.

We coaxed him inside with cookies, a sure fire way to entice any Uglydoll. We'll have to keep an eye on this little fellow.

Uglydog is part of group of six Limited Edition Hand Crafted Glass Uglydolls just released.  Find one of your own right here.   Or get all six.  But be warned, they may be very tiny, but they are 100% full of the adventuresome Uglydoll spirit, so keep cookies handy if you need to find them.

Tennis Anyone?

Just placed my order for the new Limited Edition US Open Big Toe.  

You will also find Little Trunko and Clip-on Ox in the Team Uglydoll US Open line-up. I may not be able to resist getting the entire team.

Get them here. 

Nandy Bear

Let's hear it for Nandy Bear Learning Express Exclusive from Uglydoll.  He's like a blue piece of toast that you can love and hug and keep forever.

No surprise that I've been getting some messages from other Uglydoll fans about the how's and where's of adopting  Nandy Bear.  So today I went hunting  for you.  I contacted the Learning Express home office with your questions.   As soon as I hear back, I'll post it here.

If you live near a Learning Express, it may be as simple as walking in to get your Nandy Bear! Here's the store finder link.  But alas, most Ugly fans must adopt by mail.

Anyone with more info than I have is invited to email me, and I'll happily spread the news.

These guys come in 3 sizes: 2 foot, Classic, and Clip-on.

UPDATE!!  Good news!  It's confirmed.  You can get your Nandy Bear by calling any Learning Express store, and they'll ship to you.

Coldy Holdy Ice Bat at the Big Office.

Coldy Holdy Ice Bat lit up the sky on a cold and rainy day as he made his first visit to the Big Office. Everyone was suitably enamored. He promised to return regularly and spread the love.

More Holdy Than Coldy

Our Coldy Holdy Ice Bat is a very popular guy. It turns out he's more of a Holdy than a Coldy.  He likes to go where we're going and do what we're doing.  Bike rides, movies, jogging, yard work. He's up for anything, even if that means he's down in the dirt and sand.

Keeping this guy clean was starting to be a problem.  Each night we worked on the smudges, hand prints, food bits and other remains of the day.  By the next evening we'd have to start all over again. He's just a naturally active and socially gifted guy. There are worse problems to have.





We did, however, find our solution to keeping a clean and collectible Ice Bat.

Meet Keepy Cleany!
He came to us through our friend Justin. Now this handsome Ice Bat likes to sit on a ledge and observe. He's knows he's collectible and likes it that way.  Not so much into going and doing, he likes to stay sparkling clean and greet admirers after they've calmed down and their hands are clean.

It's all a matter of finding the right Ice Bat for the job. We're just so happy to have our two stunning boys.   In our house, there's a place for everyone!

______________
Ugly History: Coldy Holdy Ice Bat was a FAO limited edition release.  He's no longer available on line through FAO, but if you want him you can still find
him on ebay for about 25.00. But get him while
supplies last!

Ket is here!

A package arrived from The Official Uglydoll Store. Ket popped out with a twinkle in his eye and a hug for everyone.

David said this is one of the earliest Ugly designs, and is one of Sun-Min and David's favorites.

This little guy reminds me of a fluffy piece of toast with banana ears. And hugable? Oh yes. He fits snuggly in your arms, and has ears like handles that fit perfectly in your hands. He arrived a bit flat, but a little fluffing is all it took for him to puff into a lovable softy pal.

David Horvath describes him as a guy who KNOWS clothing saying, "He IS fashion". But being super indecisive, he arrived without an outfit to his name. No prob. He came to the right place. We have some VERY decisive Uglydolls who can take his fashionable ideas and craft the wardrobe of his dreams. Then tell him which one to wear! Perfecto.

About Ket: He is a Kitson Exclusive Uglydoll, meaning....get him at Kitson while you can! Also available at Uglydoll Store. Only in classic 14" size for 20.00.

Out of the BLUE...New UGLYDOLL Ket LE

Out of the blue...and into the PINK! I didn't see this one coming. What a wonderful surprise from David and Sun-Min. This is a Kitson l limited edition Uglydoll named Ket. He is available for a short time from Kitson. Also available in limited quantities from the Official Uglydoll Store.

I first saw Ket as part of the line-up at David and Dehara Have Mono show in Tokyo. (No, I wasn't there in person) Those were all handmade versions that were rare, expensive, and hard to get. But now we have the pink Ket, who is a modest 20.00 and cute as a bucket of pink, shiny buttons with Ugly faces on them. Cute!

It looks like the tag indicates it is a Kitson Limited Edition, making it all the more fun for collectors such as myself.

This is the kind of November surprise that makes me smile! The Uglydoll creators have a way of spreading sunshine that just amazes me.

What a Croc!

Our hats are off to Crocadoca. He's handsome. He's debonair. He wears a fedora, and hangs out with the way cool Bossy Bear and Turtle. What more could you ask for?

Well, just look at that face. Now, imagine it.....glowing.

Don't strain your brain. Instead, click here.

Wowzer. Right?
That's a pic from Uglyblog. Those lovelies are limited edition Glow in the Dark Crocadoca's that will be available at the Toy Tokyo Booth at SDCC on Saturday from noon to 1pm, during David Horvaths signing session.

Got a fav? I'm liking the blue on blue version.

Want one? Me too. If I get any other info on the whereabouts of these fellows following SDCC, I'll post it here pronto. I'm thinking ebay fore sure. Hopefully there'll be a few left for retail release. We shall see.
