I've seen these in convention booths and even at store, but I just assumed they were display/fixtures, kind of like the 8' Stokke Tripp Trapp we saw in Iceland.
But no, you can buy six-foot tall Ugly Dolls of your very own. They're more furniture than toy, and presumably there's some kind of baffling like a comforter so all the stuffing doesn't settle to the bottom. [7-foot tall wearable versions are, at press time, still unavailable.]
At least two characters are available at Amazon, Target [the octopus-looking one who's "always bailing the other Uglydolls out of trouble"] and Wedgehead ["he understands you"]. If you're really buying a furniture-sized doll based on its "personality," though, I would really encourage you to wait. And see which one's most compatible with the kid.

there's a comic shop that sells ugly dolls and they have one of the 6' dolls on display. i asked them how much would the 6' one be and they replied it's not for sale but if it was it would be $500.
just thought you'd like to know.

Sooo good.
Makes me want to scrap the Eames rocker (fibreglass) in the sprog's room and simply throw the huge Wedgehead (his fav) into a basket frame - Papasan Chair stylie!
