Hosive

in early december, we attended the jam packed uglycon at the giant robot nyc and had a great time seeing the exclusives, art and prints….and hanging out with rabid ugly doll fans. it was also fun getting called in the raffle early to get access to some of the limited edition merch.

look how happy we look.

we limited ourselves to only one purchase of art….and theresa decided on the yakatori on the left with uglydolls waiting to eat at a japanese food stand though she was also interested on the one behind this young fan with the uglies in monster costumes. success! getting in early, we had our pick of the litter and got the framed version of the yakatori.

the whole ugly exhibit would be up for another month but after that we would be able to pick up the print.

but when we called to see if we could come by to retrieve the print, we were told that there was a mix up and the yakatori had been sold to someone else earlier in the day. this is not us disappointed but rather the manager telling us to pose angry and we obliged!

giant robot apologized profusely and bent over backwards to make amends. luckily, they had an unframed version of the print we purchased and offered a choice of either an unsold framed print or two unframed prints for free! they even said we could purchase anything in the store at the employee discount rate! we declined on using any more moola but we left the store with these:

we chose free art over free framing….we figure that we can always buy framing…but we can’t always buy art.

some of these pieces should look good in the baby room! anyone know a good framer?
