I have two favorite Circus Punks. Sun-Min's Spiderboom is one of those two.
This one is number 107 of 150. Check out the website of the company that produced them, Circus Punks. Be ready for eye-popping color and mind-bending designs.
For more fun, explore Circus Punks on ebay and have and look at some of the vintage offerings. Circus Punks were also called Knock Down Dolls and populated the stalls at circuses, fairs, carnivals. Visitors would throw balls at them to knock them down and win a prize. Now the prize is the Circus Punk itself!
Sun-Min Kim and David Horvath have taken their designs and melded them with other traditions from the past. Circus Punks is just one of those great pairings.
Welcome from the Ugly Shire!

It's a Mystery
MartyKat may be an Uglydoll of the Gato Deluxe variety, but he's also pure cat and ... curious.
Last night he took to the shadows and went to the Big Room to see what his friends were up to. He was stopped in his tracks by something completely unexpected. ANOTHER Gato Deluxe. MartyKat does not know where this new fellow came from....and neither do we! Seriously! But there he was, standing amongst MartyKats friends like he belongs.
We thought he was MartyKat, seen in the left of photo. Nope. Far from it. The mystery fellow could be Gato Super Deluxe from his plump and ample stature. Everyone is talking about it today.
Where DID he come from?
The new guy's not talking. He likes the attention. We named him Mr. Ree.

Happy Hat Day

Uglydoll Calendars shows August 1st is Hat Day, so the Uglydolls dug into the closets and searched under the beds for their favorite hats.
After the important activities of eating, nibbling, sipping juice, and dessert, I was able to gather them all up for a group photo.
Here they are, wishing you all the Happiest of Hat Days, and many more. More days and more hats!
