Mr. Potato Head Questions

[ADGoofy]

Just a couple of questions about the Mr. Potato Heads in Disneyland.
1) Do they still have the big tub to fill with pieces?
2) How much does the tub cost?
3) Can you still buy the original star wars potato heads, Like yam solo and luke frywalker

Thanks

Two weeks ago in the store to the right after you enter DCA from the main entrance my daughter got a tub full of parts for her nephews. The tub is a box about 7x5x4 inches, she got quite a few parts in the box including Buzz feet, Dumbo ears, Donald hat, Mad Hatter hat, several sets of arms, Ice cream bars, lips, noses, and whatnot. She did not put a body in, they had already had those.

I believe it cost her about $20.00.

I think I saw the StarWars heads there too don't remember the prices.

The box is $18 and you can ask the CMs to help you cram it full!

When we were there a year ago, they had they box for $18 or a large Mr. Potato Head shaped container (that would probably fit 3-4 boxes worth of pieces) for $45 or something close to that. It is a much better deal to go with the bigger container if you really need that many pieces.

I have seen that large container at Costco last Christmas and others (like Walmart and Target) but they are full of generic pieces. It looks something like this....

Hopefully someone can confirm if these are still available at EngineEARS in DCA.

The named heads that you mentioned are sold in sets, they are $12 normally (though during the March ladies trip they were 8 and I could hit myself I didn't buy them all!). That said, I don't know if they have Luke and Han...I remember Leia and Maul...but gosh they sure are cute in all of their potato pun glory!

I'm sure you know this, but I didn't until someone pointed it out. They told me to make sure I had a left and right arm.
