Meet Scary Beary!

This is an example of what happens when you put a toxic waste dump next to a toy store... Beary never noticed he was any different than the other fluffy friends on the shelves of the toy store,but always wondered why people ran when he asked for a hug.

Completely hand sculpted. Stands just over 3"

Beary is part of my "Deadsley Bear series". Most Deadsley bears are one of a kind.

Beary is available in my shop now Here.

I Googled Myself & I Liked It!

Wow that title sounds so much dirtier than it really should. So while bored I typed
"Sleepy Robot 13" into Google and found myself on a few websites and blogs, including one site that tracks Etsy users who are turning their shops into full fledged businesses. Most of these pages seem to be takes off of the feature Plastic and Plush did on my figures.

Plastic and Plush Review

Today the toy website plasticandplush.com did a write up on my figures. I have to admit it was kinda cool to see my work on their main page right underneath the awesomely amazing Bruce Campbell action figure!

Odd Requests And Baghead Boy

So a guy ordered my baghead boy figure today and asked that it be shipped anonymously to someone... ok, yea that's fine. He asked that I send no trace that the item was from him. Now where it gets weird is, the guy asked me to enclose the theme song from Three's Company with the figure... ok I'm sure it's some kind of inside joke, but really??? Three's Company? I get requests to enclose notes and thank you cards with orders all the time, but so far this is the weirdest.

Oh and if you've forgotten the lyrics again are:

Come and knock on our door.....
We've been waiting for you......
Where the kisses are hers and hers and his,
Three's company too.

Come and dance on on our floor......
Take a step that is new.....
We've a lovable space that needs your face,
Three's company too.

You'll see that life is a frolic and laughter is calling for you......
Down at our rendez-vous,
Three's company, too!!!!!!

New site

I am currently working on a new official website that I hope to have online within the next week or so. Please keep checking back here for new updates.

I've Been Blogged About

Today I received two messages through Etsy Convo from awesome people who have blogged about some of my items. First http://www.seemegshop.com/2009/10/30/friday-ramblings/ posted about how much she loved the earrings her husband bought her from my etsy jewelry shop sugaredwithspite.etsy.com . She says that she has been wearing the same diamond earrings she received from her husband on her wedding day since that day, but took them out because she wanted to wear the new earrings that badly.

Next http://www.sewcupcake.blogspot.com/ featured my Sleepy Robot Figure in her "Whacky Wednesday- Cute gifts for children". Though I really appreciate her featuring one of my items, I will just say I do not recommend giving any of my figures to children as they are fragile. This is the 2nd blog in the last few weeks to feature my Sleepy Robot.

New Figures Just added

I have just added a slew of new figures to my Etsy Shop, including an introduction of my Deadsley Bear series. Here's a preview. All figures are now for sale at sleepyrobot13.etsy.com
