Celebrating who you are inside and out is the new beautiful.

David Horvath and Sun-Min Kim founded their company, Pretty Ugly, LLC in 2001-and the rest is, well, pretty ugly!

The team started creating Uglydolls -Wage, Babo, OX, Ice-Bat and their Uglydoll pals- who express themselves through laughs, tears, love, adventure and also candy (they tell me).

In the Uglydoll universe, “ugly” means unique and different. And that’s just what these dolls are – unique and different, garnering a ton of awards from the 2006 Toy of the Year, Oppenheim Best Toy, Fat Brain Toy Award, Learning Express Toy Award, Creative Child Toy Award to Parent’s Choice Best Toy.

The New Jersey-based online store,  http://www.uglydolls.com sells a plethora of ugly merchandise, including comic books, UGLYDOLL PLUSH, Action Figures & FUNKO Vinyl, Apparel, Ceramics, Citizens of the Uglyverse™, HELLO KITTY & Limited Releases, Tin Toys, Uglybuddies, Uglypillow™, MIMOBOT®, UNIVERSAL MONSTERS, Watches and more.

All of it is so ugly, it’s adorable!
