Mr. Potato Head "box"...where? (DTD?)

[KKB]

I am intrigued by this...where can we get it?
THANKS!

Are you referring to the cardboard boxes that you can pile all you can stuff of the Mr. Potato Head and accessories?

I got mine at Once Upon a Toy, however, the store you come upon while getting off Dinosaur in AK also has them available. I believe that more places are offering them around DW, as it has been a few years since I bought mine from OUAT in DTD.

Once Upon a Toy in DTD but they do sell them at a couple of other spots throughout the world. But the largest and coolest selection is at Once Upon a Toy. The cm's are great about helping fill the box to the fullest. have fun

I stuffed a box full (minus the potato - I have lots of those) at Mouse Gears in EPCOT.

I agree Once Upon a Toy has the best selection. Here is what I got in my box this last trip.

They also sell them at County Bounty in Toontown at MK.

It looks like all of the locations have a few different parts for sale.

Has anyone found where in MGM they sell the Potato heads?

i saw them in MGM back in FEb but can't remember the store, i think it was on the corner of the street leading to fantasmic. My DD3 at time made up a potato head then they displayed it at the store. she was thrilled

Yes, it is in the kids store L.A. Prop Cinema Storage on the right hand corner at the end of the street as you enter the park.

Also of interest, how to pack your box:

I had a really old thread with exact packing directions, but lost it when my hard drive died.

I took a picture of all my Disney Mr. Potato head parts. I got all this in 3 boxes.
I have more fun trying to fill the box then I do with the parts. LOL
I decorate my Mr. Potato Head every month with a different outfit.

I'll also post what I got in one box my last trip again.

thanks for the pics, i don't remember seeing all those cool pieces at MGM maybe DTD has more variety

We specifically went to Once upon a Toy to get potato head parts for my daughter. I saw the $46 box and rejected it thinking we would never need/find that many different parts and we opted for the $19 box. Well. . . .3parks and 3 boxes later I found out we in fact COULD find that many different pieces and BUY them!

By the time we made it to Toon town and our 3rd box I realized each store has a couple of different pieces that aren't at the other stores, so it wasn't a big deal that I spent SIXTY DOLLARS ON MR. POTATO HEAD PARTS

The CMs were AWESOME about helping stuff the boxes or considering a box "closed" for purposes of purchasing. My DD plays with the parts all the time, they are sturdy, safe toys, and a wonderful reminder of WDW since they are something we can't get anywhere else. All in all it was a great purchase.

Does anyone know if you can get additional empty boxes? I was thinking that this may be a nice souvenier to bring home and split up for my nephews.

What is the price for the box of parts? I would like to budget this one in.

i think ut was`just under $20. remember, if you need to by the body, open the back and stuff that too.

 

[tooh8ful]

The box is $19. I wouldn't buy a potato head at WDW, takes up too much room. You can buy one of those at Wal-Mart for $5 with clothes if you need one (or an extra one after you buy all the cool accessories at WDW )
Once Upon a Toy also has a much larger plastic case you can stuff. It is $46. At the time I thought that was too much.


I should have gotten it. . .

im really excited about this now. Im going to DL in december and I already convinced DFi to get me parts for my birthday. Does anyone know if they have the large box at Dl?

 

[mickeyscoloradogirl]

WOW, I can't believe how many parts there are! We did this a few years ago in DL and I have been looking forward to adding to our collection! It's such a fun way to remember our trip. Thanks for the tips about packing the box with "parts only." I never would have thought about that.
