oh admit it you wish you could casualy change your body parts at times

need something bigger stick it on, want an extra apendage stick it on. something getting in the way take it off for a bit.

look who blessed us with his presence....any reason why i dont see you on my list any more???
 
I never had a Mr. Potato Head when I was a child so when my nephew got one for one of his bdays. Well actually he got 2 so hence I kept one ...

I can say I had fun with it ... I like taking him apart and putting on his many faces. But then I usually do this when I am trying to avoid my work. :)
 
mr dick head?

or is that too reality based to be a toy?

:p :D :p
 
I always had something for Mrs. Potato head.... something about those attachable lips..... makes me hungry for french fries!!:devil:
 
Did you know that the original Mr Potato Head didn't come with the plastic potato? I got one for Christmas when they first came out and had to get a potato from the kitchen to stick the pieces into. It's actually more fun with a real potato (or turnip, etc) because you're not limited to the pre-punched holes.

I had forgotten they changed it to a plastic potato! (Was there a reason for this?)

Well, I suppose something erotic could be done by putting the pieces in appropriate food (bananas, turnip, eggplant, peach, orange, apple... gee I'm getting hungry again!).:p
 
this whole thread started because of my talking mr potatohead from toy story .....its mr potatohead to you...what are you looking at you hockey puck....lol...anyway, i never knew they had real potatoes when they first came out...little before my time....but thanks for the 411...it was fun trivia info

The smell of rotting potatoes coming from under thousands of children's beds. ;)
 
My youngest is a big Toy Story fanatic. He has Mr and Mrs Potato Head (now that is funny when Mr Potat Head's bits get mixed up with his Missus. LOL)

He has spent hours taking the peices of and rearranging them. laughing at the different combinations.

He also has five Buzz Lightyears (including the big one I got at a sale)

Two Woody's (The older kids get a big laugh out of him when he asks them if they have seen his woody. :D )

And lots more of the different characters. :)


Phew on the rotten potatoes.
