REVIEW: Uglydolls – Mynus
Background The third Uglydoll of the 2010 season was released earlier this month (February). Mynus is the bright reddish-pink Ugly who's been designed with a little something extra on the top of her head. Sun-Min and David's new creation is described as follows: Everybody thinks Mynus is quiet and shy, but to her they all make way [...]
2002 Ice-Bat
David Horvath will be at Giant Robot 2 (Sawtelle in LA) for a signing on March 6th, 2010 from 3PM until 5PM. At the signing will be the new 2002 ICE-BAT made special for Giant Robot. In 2002, Sun-Min sewed the first few Ice-Bats with toes, bright blue fur, and 5 teeth. So if you've [...]
REVIEW: Uglydolls – Picksey
Background The second of the already released Uglydolls for 2010 - released in January along with Pointy Max - is the ugly alien Picksey. Designed by David and Sun-Min, the character is eerily reminiscent of Mothman and is described as follows: Picksey is an interdimensional being. He can be in many places at the same time. That explains why you saw [...]
Toy Fair 2010: Uglydolls
The Pretty Ugly Toy Fair booth was yet again an extremely happening spot. In addition to a slew of tin products from Schylling (robots, alarm clock, trucks, lunch boxes, Ox in a Box), the 2010 line of Uglydoll plushies were on display. If you're a vinyl fan, the Uglydoll Action Figures Series 2 and Be@rbrick Uglydoll [...]
David Horvath at FAO Schwarz
Uglydoll creator David Horvath will be at FAO Schwarz Fifth Avenue on Sunday February 14th, 2010 from 12 Noon until 1:30PM. If you're in NYC, come celebrate Valentine's Day with David...who will be signing purchases at the store. You'll probably want to have him sign your Uglydolls...and not your Tickle Me Elmo.
REVIEW: Uglydolls – Pointy Max
Background One of the first Uglydolls of 2010 - released in January - was the aptly named Pointy Max. Designed by David and Sun-Min, the green, triangle head character is described as follows: You can’t control Pointy Max. You can’t stop Pointy Max. You can’t tell Pointy Max what to do. Oh wait, is that cheese? Oh [...]
Ugly Hangers Update
David Horvath recently dropped a few photos of the upcoming Ugly Hangers. These have been delayed (they were supposed to be released in the summer), but it looks like the production is back on track. They have a little more of a comic look to them than the Uglydoll Action Figure line. I'm sure these [...]
Uglydoll Action Figure Series 2
David Horvath posted up some sneak peek photos of the Uglydoll Action Figure Series 2 line. Packaged retro style (remember the old-school Critterbox figures?), Series 2 includes: Uglydog, Uglyworm, Poe, Big Toe, Trunko, and Peaco. Each figure will be available in two colors (original and variant)...and apparently these won't be blind-boxed. [...]
2010 Uglydolls
David Horvath posted up the line of eight Uglydolls that will be released throughout 2010. The Uglys are named as follows (in order of pictured): Mynus, Picksey, Pointy Max, Ket, Nandy Bear, Ninja Batty Shogun, Cozymomster and Wippy. [...]
Uglydolls: Mynus
The newest Uglydoll is currently available for pre-order. The third Ugly unveiled for 2010 - Mynus - joins Pointy Max and Picksey as a part of this year's line. If you're interested in the character's bio, check out below: Everybody thinks Mynus is quiet and shy, but to her they all make way too much noise. [...]
Uglydoll Tin Toys
David Horvath posted up some teaser photos of the upcoming Uglydoll Tin Toy line. These are being made in conjunction with the Schylling Toys. The line will be unveiled at Toy Fair on February 14th. We'll be there to cover the event. Series numero uno has over 15 different tin toys (and other items). Talk [...]
Happy Uglydays
The Uglydoll Crew offers up their Happy Holidays wishes in the form of Trunko and Uglyworm.
Uglydolls Toy Drive Donation
Alita from the Uglydolls crew was at the Today Show this past Tuesday to donate a handful (umm...actually over 10,000) Uglydolls to the Today Show Toy Drive. This is the 7th year that the company has participated in the event...making kids a little happier during the holiday season.
Uglydolls on The Today Show
It's that time of the year again, Uglydoll fans! Alita will be joining The Today Show crew today (Tuesday December 15th) during the 10AM to 11AM time frame for the annual Today Show Toy Drive. As with previous years, they'll be donating a number of Uglys to a good cause.
Uglydolls 2010: Picksey
The second announced new Uglydoll for 2010 is named Picksey. Is Picksey a pixie? I doubt it. But this cream colored Ugly does resemble an albino version of Mothman. Look for it to land in January of 2010. ™ ® and © 2009, Pretty Ugly, LLC. All Rights Reserved
Uglydolls 2010: Pointy Max
The 2010 Uglydolls lineup is beginning to trickle out. Not the actual Uglys...but the characters that will be released throughout the new year. First up, to be released in January 2010, is Pointy Max. As you can see from the photo, this Uglydoll has a triangle-shaped head. It's a dark green shade, which I don't think [...]
Coldy Holdy Ice Bat
Uglydoll news drop! The FAO Exclusive Coldy Holdy Ice-Bat Uglydoll was released today for $24.99. They're also running a special (not sure when the deal ends) where you can buy this Ugly for $9.99 with your FAO purchase of $50 or more.
Wage Be@rbrick
David Horvath announced that his Wage Uglydoll (isn't he the original Ugly?) will be turned into a BE@RBRICK by Medicom. This will be the first Uglydoll release by Medicom, with the figure being found as a part of the BE@RBRICK Series 19. Look for them to be released this December.
Kinston Exclusive Ket Uglydoll
The first Uglydoll of 2010 is available...before 2010. This special edition of Ket is exclusive to the Kitson shop and can be purchased for $20 each (the normal Uglydoll price). I suggest picking up at least one of these. Look, OK, so let's just say Ket is smart in other ways. For example, he knows clothing [...]
Cometdebris Ice-Bat Kaiju
Cometdebris will be releasing a limited edition run of Ice-Bat Kaiju customs. Each figure is hand painted by Koji Harmon in pastel green, with neon red spots, and bright yellow eyes.
Giant Robot Dave
Erik Nakamura from Giant Robot posted a photo of David Horvath's two new My Friend Dave (Japanese made) vinyl figures that will be released at Giant Robot's Biennale on October 24th. These two special GR Dave vinyls will each be...
REVIEW: Glow-In-The-Dark Ice-Bat Action Figures
Background One of the big San Diego Comic Con releases happened at the Uglydoll booth, where Sun-Min and David released their Glow-in-the-Dark Ice-Bat Action Figure line. Consisting of six different colors, this blind box line is all Ice-Bat…all the time....
