Cars 2 Opens Tomorrow

In honor of the release of Cars 2 by Disney and Pixar, I wanted to post a quick note that we have the cutest new plush cars by Gund.  We have Lightning McQueen, Tow Mater, and Finn McMissile.  They are about 6 inches long and are super cool.  Gund always does a great job with plush toys and stuffed animals and these automotive wonders are no exceptions.  I am afraid that they won't last too long.  Cars 2 looks to be a smash hit and so do these!

Moving Stuff Around

Well, the Huge Clearance Sale is still going on.  You can visit our website at http://www.townsquaretoys.com/ to find out more about it.  If you are more interested in deals of the day or deals of the week, you can become our friend on facebook.  That would be cool.

The Clearance Sale and the post Christmas aftermath finds us moving stuff around at the toy store.  It is fun.  We moved the science stuff to the back and some of the cute backpacks and lunch boxes to the front.  Our giant Stephen Joseph display is in the front area now.  All of our Schleich animals and knights are in the back; right next to the Thomas the Tank Engine train table.  So much new stuff will be coming soon from Market.  I am sure we are going to be rearranging stuff all year!  Come check it out.

When you do come by the store, tell us what you think?  Do you like where some stuff is and not where other things are?  Do you want to see more stuffed animals?  Do you want to see more legos?  Drop us a line or just tell us.  Thanks!

Uglyworm Plush Doll by Ugly Dolls is Quite Ugly

We have mentioned Ugly Dolls before and mentioned how they came to be. I just was thinking about the ugliness of them today and my mind wandered to the Uglyworm. I am not sure what it is that makes him both ugly and endearing at the same time. I would have to say that the thin and unkempt hair is not doing him any favors. His one huge eye makes me think of Mike from Monsters Inc., and of the mythological Cyclops. So, that sort of makes up for the hair. He has no arms or legs, but a pleasant shape. He is soft and green, more like Kermit the Frog than Oscar the Grouch. And, the two sharp teeth are kinda cool as well. You do have to be careful with him, and the other Ugly Dolls, because once you give them a hug, you won't want to put him down.
