My New Favorite Toy

The longer I work at my toy shop the more toys grow on me and the more I want to own them. I pride myself in knowing that we sell "cultured" toys where I work. My current favorite stuffed animal, which we do sell at the toy store, is any kind of UGLY DOLL! I hope you've heard of them, because they're the best thing since sliced bread.

The one I own is Wedgehead, the blue one with, the wedgehead, duh. Here's what it said on his tag that came with him: Wedgehead has his eye on you. and he likes what he sees! Finally, someone who understands him! He is very handsome too...can't you tell? What do you mean he looks pitiful? Look at that charismatic posture! Wedgehead understands you too. He sees things the way you see them... OK, so he has to stand on his head to do so, but still! He understands exactly what you mean. Wedgehead and his best buddy OX are on a mission to prove that humans really do exist, and he would like you to help them on their quest. The proof can be found in the snacks! Have any?

Bria has Ugly Dog. There's a picture of two ugly dogs, one pink and one red. They're the ones that look like one-eyed cats. I'm keeping Ugly Dog company while Bria's away.

Now, there are many many more Ugly Dolls, and here is the question? Since I want more more more of them, which should I get next? That orange one? His name is Chuckanucka.
I really like
Moxy, the aqua-colored one with the yellow teeth and tall straight ears. But Ox, the bright green one with an "x" for one of his eyes, has some appeal too, although he's not as cute as some.
Tray with the three eyes is smart looking, Ice Bat looks cuddly, and Babo looks stupid but sweet. Oh these are not my only options, there are Bop 'n Beep, Wage, Jeero, Cinko, Peaco, and Target. There are these ones in different colors and sizes. Hmm, tough decision, tough decision.

Then there's always the option to make my own ugly doll, which I plan to do anyway...

Make sure you read the blurb about each ugly doll. This is a very important decision I am going to make. Each doll is so unique, so different. Which one would be the best company right now? Which one would give me the best pleasure? Which would give me the best advice?

(I get the 12" size, or smaller. 2' is a bit pricey.)

I love those Cara...what is the material...a fleecy type? Makes me want to make one too. I've seen them somewhere before--I think online?

Claire said...

Where do you work? I understand if you can't tell me here because of online privacy and all that...but I'm curious...

Cara said...

Liane, they're made of fleecymaterial with felt eyes and teeth and stitched features. I could send you some detail pics if I get a minute to take them!

Claire-I'll e-mail you too.

Oh dear, now I've told four people I will e-mail them and haven't gotten to the first two in a week. :) I'm too busy selling ugly dolls, I guess.

'Give you the best advice'? They're DOLLS, Cara! ;)

Booker said...

ok, at first I thought you'd been hacked by some weirdo.

Now I know you're just a weirdo!

:-)

Susan Elizabeth said...

They're, um, cute... (?) Actually, I think they compare in cuteness to the troll dolls...
Give me Cordoroy anyday!

TripleNine said...

since you like those, you should check out the monsters at makingfiends.com Though those ones aren't quite as cute :)

Blue Knight said...

The best thing since sliced bread, hmm.... How about Glock, Smith & Wesson, Ruger or Baretta.)

Kayla said...

okay, I realize I'm a little late, but I HAVE to state my opinion and advice, since I know you want them.:) But I want to say, I think the ugly dolls are GREAT! At first they seemed weird, but now I think they're adorable in their ugliness (probably why I like my Norwegian troll so much:). And, hmm, I like Chuckanucka and Ice Bat maybe the best, but I think Moxy could really help you out with your room cleaning.;)

Cara-a-bara-
Fearful creatures of the earth,
Trust comes quick and then deceit;
If I were you would give wide birth
From look of them, you they may eat,
Beware of little weird things with random girth!
