80s Galactic Icebat Has Landed
Sunday, November 16th, 2008Woke up this morning and I saw this colorful guy perched by my window. A daytime bat perhaps? Imagine how the rays of the sun would pass through his colorful glitter body. XD
There are only 10 of these little guys in the world and each is unique since they’re hand-dyed. I’m so happy that one decided to live with me!
Sunset!

Sunday, November 2nd, 2008Brothers!
Friday, October 24th, 2008I mentioned in my previous post about Icebat’s brother. Well, here they are together now!
BROTHERS! XD
These are both Uglycon versions, but from different years. Red Icebat was from Uglycon Tokyo 2008. The other one is Sleepy Chilly Icebat from Uglycon GR-San Francisco 2007.
They both look so adorable! So soft and cuddly, too! XD
T9G in Uglycon Tokyo
Sunday, October 19th, 2008Touma in Uglycon Tokyo
Saturday, October 18th, 2008During Uglycon Tokyo, there were a lot of guest artists. Here’s one of the unique pieces there.
Done by Touma, I find this one really cute. Touma is Japanese character designer who is renowned for his designs, including the wildly-popular Knuckle Bear, as well as Scuttle, Talons, Snout, Hell Hounds, BOO and many more.
I think that seated figure is made from resin. Touma’s version of Wage is really cute and amusing. The one in the painting is Moxy.
Uglycon Tokyo Today!
Friday, October 10th, 2008Argh! Uglycon Tokyo is today! @_@ I wonder what other great goodies are up for sale besides the Super Puncher Kaiju? (LOL! I like that picture above. David’s version of the fortune cat is cute. Hmm…I wonder if he’ll turn that into a Miao?)
Saw a picture of a new hand-painted Ice-bat Kaiju though. It was done by Koji Harmon and it’s 1 of a kind!!! >.< I wish I could own a special Uglydolls figure one of these days.
See that Ice-bat beauty? That’s the one of a kind piece!
Super Puncher Figure
Friday, October 3rd, 2008Wooo! Here’s what the Super Puncher figure should look like. I WANT! XD
Hmm…this reminds me of David Horvath’s 2 Faced Dunny series, wherein you rotate the head 180 degrees to reveal a different form. Come to think of it, the concept is quite similar to Shurikenger (Green Ranger in Hurricanger) figure by Bandai.
For those who have the Japanese version of the toy, you know what I’m talking about. Hehe.
Lookie, lookie! This is the "Yokai" mode:
This is the Super Puncher mode:
