Some David Horvath Stuff…

It occured to me that I wanted to post about Kaiju Babo, and then I suddenly wanted to post about the new shirts at Giant Robot– so I decided to put some things David Horvath in one post. I am a HUGE fan of David Horvath and Sun-Min Kim. I can’t help but love their overly simplistic, but super cute little monsters. With them, I experience being able to draw their popular characters without feeling like I missed the magic.

So, to the first matter at hand. I’ve wanted to own most of DH’s Kaiju Uglies… and the fact that I don’t understand the foreign language is holding me back. A friend of mine explained the process, but I keep thinking I’m going to frak up. Apparently, you have to email them what you’re interested in along with address and they request a paypal payment? Umm [source] is that correct? Well, if they’re not sold out– I WANT KAIJU BABO!!!

At first I was thrown off by the revelation of a cookie tail. The cookie part was okay, I mean, who doesn’t LOVE cookies?!! I’ll send cookie monster on you. It was explained that Babo lives in an alternate universe where a tail is necessary. So cool! Anyway, he’s set to come out later this month, so keep your eyes peeled.

Not only did DH release news of his newest Kaiju addition, but apparently, new t-shirts have been shipped too! Woo hoo! My favorite two are above, but I am especially loving the “I Quit!” shirt. How awesome is that? The shirts are about $22 a pop and you can check Giant Robot to get it.
