80s Galactic Icebat Has Landed

Sunday, November 16th, 2008

Woke 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!

Counterpart of the Sunrise Ice-bat. Also a Giant Robot Exclusive. I love both colorways, they’re very attractive and full of life.

Uglycon Tokyo Today!

Argh! 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, 2008

Wooo! 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. :D 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:

Super Puncher

Thursday, September 11th, 2008

gargamelxhorvath This is a collaboration project between Gargamel and David Horvath / Sun-min Kim. It’s a pocket kaiju which will be released at Uglycon Tokyo on October 10, 2008.

Here’s the amusing story behind this very unique figure: Lonely Otaku collected too many used Super Puncher Robot toys. He made weekly trips to Akihabara and bought at least one used Super Puncher robot toy on each visit! This was unhealthy, so he died. He came back as Super Puncher Yokai Robot ghost! Now he can’t buy anything.

My latest hauls! XD Finally got these babies from the mail. It took awhile, but it was worth it. Each colorway is limited to 50 pieces worldwide! Weee~ Just a few more kaijus to go…I hope… XD

Babysitting Wage

Wage as a babysitter?! LOL!

This is really amusing. Those little UMAs are sure naughty. I hope Wage is not having a hard time with those little guys. XD

Black Babo Kaiju

Saturday, August 9th, 2008

My brother and I was just joking about this last week. To our surprise, it’s actually being released in a few weeks. LOL! I think it’s limited to 100 pieces.

black babo

Hehe. Those green eyes are really something. Gives a whole new meaning to green-eyed monster! Hmm…red teeth! Babo’s been eating red candy, jello or something (someone) else! XD

Icebat Kaiju "Clear Glitter"

Friday, August 1st, 2008

Photofinish! I was able to order this version before it was sold out! Wooo! Limited to only 50 pieces.

Clear glitter version of our lovable Icebat!

I wonder how the people who went to SDCC 2008 reacted when they found out about this one? (*shock* *clicks on the buy button* Hehe. No use in waiting. That’s part of a collectors’ life. We always grieve for our dead wallets.)

Ultimate form? Hmm…if you watch those Japanese live action series, like Kamen Rider and Ultraman, there’s always the Shining or Ultimate or Final form. So I don’t think this is the last color for Icebat. GOLD is the way to go! XD
