Hey YOu Guys

I am finally going to get the make your own mr potato head, however I was wondering if the $45 case you can fill is worth it. Anybody bought this & any pictures?

My husband took my son in the shop while we went on a ride and was silly enough to buy the "Mr Potato Head Fill-a-box" deal, only problem was he came back with a body, two arms, two legs etc, two eyes, nose etc. and thought he'd got a real bargin! ...... moral of this story .... when it comes to shopping girls ..... leave the men at home.

Not sure if it's the same thing or not, is it like a massive pic n mix area where you fill up a box of all disney potato head things? If it is, we got ds this when we were in DLP last year. As he already had several 'bodies' at home we crammed as much disney stuff in as we possibly could, and did a grand job, I think they were most surprised at how much we managed to fit in. DS loves it all and regularly makes up different disney characters.

My tip would be to use the box for all the accesories and buy the pototo as part of a set (darth tater etc) The pototo body takes up so much space and they always have some sort of special edition with some accesories available that works out cheaper than filling a second box!

Just checked last year's receipt and the box is $19.95. I know they do a larger size container.
My children managed to fit a potato head plus incredibles outfit/tinkerbell outfit, Mary Poppins hat and Mickey accessories for the park into one box.
Somewhere on disboards there is a 'tip' list of how to fit in the maximum. DS 9 set this as his mission to complete for DD (5 at the time) and was thrilled with his purchase!!

Here's a link to all the bits we managed to fit in our box http://www.flickr.com/photos/27130064@N03/2534716448/

We paid around $19.95 and spent a good 15 minutes cramming everything in. My tip is to fill the potato body with parts as well! :hyper:

I did see the big $45 case last trip but it looked too big and bulky to get home :)

thanks for your help guys - think I might just go with the 2 wee boxes the rather than the carry case.

86 more sleeps.....yeahh

and it doesnt say anywhere in the rules them little boxes have to sut use the top of th box to cram in even more then put it all in a bag!

I am an 11 year old and i have done the mr potato head i don't advise it bits go everywhere and you bearly get anything in the storage part. However making the mr potato head in the first can be quite fun!

Thanks Charlotte x

The $45 Mr. Potato Head isn't a box. It's an actual plastic see-thru Mr. Potato Head!! It's quite large too, so I'm not sure how you'd get it home!?

You could get plenty in there that's for sure though. I'd say you'd pretty much fit in everything they have to offer at DTD :)
