Enjoy Classic Children's Toys: Mr. Potato Head
Now Mr. And Mrs. Potato Head Are Even Hollywood Stars
One Potato Two Potato
Today, the real piece of food has been replaced, and while it may be that some of the aesthetic appeal is gone, at least food is not wasted. Besides, something has been added. As in the case of the first man Adam's needing a wife and receiving one, Mr. Potato Head needed a wife and now he has one, Mrs. Potato Head!
More Fun with Our Friend
But, today I have special good news for all lovers of everything potato - there is a Java (online) Mr. Potato Head! You kids (and adults, if no one is looking) can play with a Java Mr. Potato Head on your computer, here!
And here is another Java Potato Head that can also become a Mr. Lemon, a Mrs. Pepper, or a Miss Onion.
In addition to Java Mr. Potato Head, here is a collector's website.
Personal Appearances
Yes, Mr. Potato Head is by no means ready to leave us. He was portrayed in Walt Disney's Toy Story and Toy Story 2. In addition, he has been in a comic strip, and on television. He was in the 2006 Macy's Day Parade. Yes, Mr. Potato Head is not about to retire from entertaining us.
There is a Mr. Potato Head website, considered the "official spud site" where you can discover many lovely things about the world's favorite vegetable toy. There is even a commercial you can watch on your computer (see my facebook associated bookmark).
A Coming Attraction
What does the future hold for our dear chum? Apparently, there is to be a Toy Story 3, and we will see him return once again for our viewing pleasure. Wikipedia tells us it is slated for release June 18, 2010.
