Uglydoll Tin Robots are HERE!

My three Uglydoll Tin Robots are here.  I've been admiring them all day.  Their boxes were a big surprise.  I shouldn't be surprised by the creative punch of Uglydoll at this point, but I AM!

How can I tell you how much fun these boxes are.  They are covered in David Horvath art, and little text bubbles that make us laugh and laugh.

         Look.....................
Here you see the back and two sides of the boxes.  Get a load of that big blue Uglybot with what appears to be wings and a rocket pack?  HA!  I want him!
If you click the photo it will big up so you can get a closer look at these detailed boxes.

Thought, care, and fun are put into every aspect of an Uglydoll creation.  I sometimes imagine David Horvath at his art station drawing and thinking of little tidbits to tuck here and there that will delight and surprise us.


  INSIDE the front flap of the box you'll find MORE art!  There's even a little Ugly character in there I've never seen before that I would dearly love to adopt.  I won't give away the surprise, but I'll tell you it has one eye.  One-eyed Uglys knock my socks off.  No explaining it.

Check back tomorrow.  If all goes as planned the Robots will be out of the boxes and posing for more pics and MAYBE a Robot Video to share with you!  Woot. You wanna see these bad boys go, don't ya?

Thank you, Uglydoll!  The joy just keeps coming.

Uglybots

Get em out. Wind em up. Watch em go. My prediction is this towering 4 1/2 inches Uglybot will take over your room and you heart in under 2 minutes. I have uncanny accuracy in these matters. You'll see.

These guys are tin with a colorful plastic trim that holds them together. All over their robot bodies you will find your favorite Uglydoll characters. David Horvath knows what makes a robot tick. Just look through the window and you'll know too.

Speaking of windows, these come window boxed. That's extra nice. You could put an empty Uglydoll window box on a shelf and enjoy it. They look that good. Yep.

Uglybots will retail at $7.99, but if you're under 3 years old, put your money away. Only for 3 and over. Sorry. (But put it in an Ugly bank! ) That's only $23.97 for all three

Tin Thunder Robot

Look what I found! I think this is an original Thunder Robot from the 1960's. Check out the other cool Tin Robots on this website.
I have always loved Robots, from the early guys on Star Trek, Lost in Space, and Star Wars, to the current awesome badness of Cameron on Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles. Robots ROCK! So I was really pleased to discover this fine fellow, Thunder Robot is available in a re-released that looks pretty fine. His antenna spins, he walks and flashes a light through the window in his head and eyes, arms raise and fire cannons while flashing and vibrating. I feel the need for some additional shelving is on the horizon. A nice set of Tin Robots along side the Uglydolls would be delightful. Hey, maybe David Horvath will make his Ugly Robot into a Tin Robot. How could it be better than that?
