Dr. Max Abima Prescription #2

You are who you are. No matter what others may say, celebrate your uniqueness. Hold on to it like a rare treasure and never let it go. If you have four fingers and no thumb , don't hide it. Instead, buy 8 amazing rings. Some of your friends may have two fingers and three eyes. Or one eye! That's ok too. It's what's inside that's important. Treat others with kindness. Keep your teeth clean and your plush free of dust. And be honest. It works for Dr. Max.

Installment #2 in Dr. Max Abima's Prescriptions for a happy life.

It's Ugly Time

I got this pic from Uglyblog, who got this pic from another blog. It is UGLY TIME! No, your eyes do not deceive you. It's an old style tin Uglydoll clock with the adorable Babo on the face. And are those cookies with numbers in them? That melts my heart. I wonder if Babo alone will adorn the Ugly Clock, or will there be others? To borrow a favorite Bossy Bear phrase...MINE! As soon as they are released...MINE.

I love that this clock has hands rather than some digital display. It restores meaning to the words "half past", or "a quarter till".

Special thanks to Ragandbone.com for the pic.

The Big Toe Collection 2010 Limited Edition

Last year Ox was the Uglyverse Special Limited Edition with 6 amazing colors. We've all been anxiously waiting to know who would be that special Uglydoll this year. Well you may have guessed it by now, but none of my friends did. I gave each friend 8 chances to guess which Uglydoll received that honor this year. One chance for each of Abima's fingers. No one guessed Big Toe. So that makes him the perfect and most surprising choice!

Which is your favorite flavor of Big Toe? So far I'm torn between the green on the bottom left, and the one next to him in the middle. We have a debate in progress over just what color that is. Three votes for orange so far. I say it's not orange. Can "not orange" be considered a color? So far, "not orange" is one of my top two picks for adoption. I think his color along with the simple black nose and light eyes are an understatement that says "Classy" without screaming it. Note: You cannot BE classy while screaming about it.

The green fellow with yellow eyes is also classy, in a Clark Gable sort of way. He's coming home for sure.

All of these gorgeous Big Toe variations rock the Uglyverse. They are due out in April.

New Uglydolls Blowin My Socks Off

Look on the back of the box! It's the new 2010 Uglydoll Action Figures. We have Uglydog, Uglworm, Poe, Big Toe, Trunko, and Peaco. I'm dizzy just thinking about. I was keeping my fingers crossed for Uglyworm, and boy did that pay off. I highly recommend finger-crossing for the big things in life.

That's not all the Ugly news for today. But I'll let this awesomeness rest on your mind a little while, and soon be back with more.

Each of the 6 figures comes in 2 colors, no repeaters. Oh, and they are still a whopping 3 inches tall. Plus they come in those totally adorable and collectible window boxes. Reminds me of the larger Critterbox Uglydolls of days gone bye!

My Ugly Valentine

Our Ugly crew is getting all excited about Valentine's Day. They're not sure just yet what to do, but they know it will involve lots and lots of candy hearts.

Uglydolls 2010

I made a little collage of the Uglydoll line-up for 2010. So far, Pointy Max (bottom left) and Picksey (on his right) have been released.

You can get them from the Official Uglydoll Store linked on the sidebar of this blog.

The blue fellow is Ket. He has some great handlebar ears that didn't fit in the collage.

He is like the Pink Kitson Ket in an earlier post, only blue!

When I get reliable release dates, or even semi-reliable rumors, I'll post them.

Who they are: Top row, left to right: Wippy, Nandy Bear, Ket.
Middle row: Batty Shogun, Cozy Monster.
Bottom row: Pointy Max, Picksey, Mynus

Nandy Bear, I love you.

Nandy Bear is one of the 8 new Uglydolls coming out in 2010. And he's a love. Look at those gorgeous big blues, and the knobby-bobby ears. From his toast-like shape to those twinkle toes, he's pure Uglydoll perfection. He's the Mona Lisa of Ugly. I bet he is layered in talent. I can see him performing an effortless classic ballet, or playing goalie in a soccer match.

I want to reach right out through cyberspace and hug him, get to know his tastes, preferences and dreams. I bet we have lots in common.

Hey Nandy Bear. Can you hear me? I can hardly wait to welcome you home.

Oh, and the other 7 Uglydolls for 2010 are also amazing and will soon be added to the blog.

For David Horvath and Sun-Min Kim, lightening continues to strike as the Uglydoll line grows evermore exciting and fun each year. Thanks so much for the magic!
