Star Wars Meets Mr. Potato Head with The Yamdalorian and The Tot Playset

Posted on by

Any toy with a Mandalorian theme is going to make money. That’s just basic Star Wars economics. So to easily fatten both Disney’s and Hasbro’s pockets comes this Star Wars Potato Head The Yamdalorian and the Tot playset. It features a basic Potato Head body and 13 accessories to dress up like everyone’s favorite Grogu-protecting bounty hunter. Even I just ordered two despite my doctor having me on a strict no-starch diet.

Available for pre-order from Entertainment Earth for a relatively reasonable $16, the Spudalorian is going to look great on the display shelf with the rest of my Star Wars memorabilia. Do they still make Potato Heads with the butt storage compartment for storing all their accessories? Because I’d hate to lose baby Yoda to one of my cats.

So, are these going to be next year’s must-have Christmas toy, or is the storage unit I have full of them to resell on eBay just going to go to waste? I suppose only time will tell, but if time tells the same story it has in the past, this will be just like the time I invested in Enron.

Mr. and Mrs. Potato Head Egg Cups Are All They’re Cracked Up to Be

Posted on by

Eggs. I love them scrambled, over-easy, in an omelette, on top of a burger, poached, or boiled. And potatoes aren’t too shabby either, but they’re just not as healthy for you as eggs are. Well, now you can enjoy potatoes with your eggs without the added carbs, thanks to these Mr. and Mrs. Potato Head Egg Cups.

Collectible swag maker and gift maker Paladone created these officially-licensed egg cups based on the starchy couple as they appear in Disney/Pixar’s Toy Story series. They’ll give your hard or soft-boiled eggs a fresh new look, and let you play dress-up at the dining table every day. Simply put your egg in those waist-high potato pants, then pop on the hair, ears, and eyeballs (which are all one piece.) Voila! Eggs and potatoes living in perfect harmony.

Warning: Don’t attempt to do the same with a regular Mr. Potato Head toy, or you’ll end up with a mess on your hands as you try to poke the eyes through the eggshell.

Naturally, they’re sold as a set of two, because Mr. and Mrs. Potato Head are inseparable, and they won’t let any old fry gal break them up. You can grab the pair over at Firebox for just $12.99. Now for some reason I am reminded of Humpty Dumpty.

You Can Own A Heisenberg Mr. Potato Head: Call Him Freisenberg

Successful franchises know how to reinvent themselves to stay current. The venerable Mr. Potato Head is no exception, recently putting out a Mr. Heisenberg figure, of Breaking Bad fame. There are 8 removable parts, which you assemble to create a spud version of the meth kingpin. It’s an officially licensed figurine measuring 6 inches tall, and setting you back a very reasonable $25.

11th Doctor Mr. Potato Head, Master of Time and Spud

Posted on by

It seems they have a Mr. Potato Head for everyone now. Many superheroes have one in their likeness and even some of the Star Trek crew, but I never thought I would see a Doctor Who version of the toy. It’s crazy, but awesome. Or is it terrible! I honestly don’t know.

Doctor Spud has eight removable parts, and as you can see he has his fez and sonic screwdriver. He can’t be without those. You can pre-order him now and he ships this August. I suppose it’s just a matter of time before we see the other Doctors in potato form too.

You can find it at Bigbadtoystore for $24.99(USD).

Mr. Potato Head Meets Mr. Bubbles in Rapture

Posted on by

Bioshock is still one of my favorite games of the last decade, so I was disappointed to hear that Bioshock 3 had been delayed until February 2013. At least I’ve got something to cheer me up for a few minutes of the extended wait.

What you’re looking at here is the Bioshock Mr. Potato Head – called Potato Daddy, or as I like to call him Mr. Bubbles Head.

This crazy creation is the work of one Ginger Troll, and is the perfect mashup between Bioshock’s Big Daddy and Mr. Potato Head.

I love how he still has the googley eyeballs from Mr. Potato Head, but wields that nasty killer drill. From the looks of things he’s even a little bigger than this Bouncer, so maybe he could take him on in a fight. Er, maybe not.

Mr. Potato Head Becomes Big Daddy From BioShock

Fans sometimes come up with the weirdest motifs to create mash-ups, but BioShock and Mr. Potato Head? Maybe this one takes the cake…

This is something we never expected to see: Big Daddy from BioShock taking the aspect of a (sort of) anthropomorphic potato. What the heck, right?  Well, ask Flickr ...
