It would be more disruptive to the Toy Story franchise if they hadn’t already introduced a gender-fluid character in Forky.

And we've already established that the sentience follows the accessories, not the potato (when Mr. Potato Head used the tortilla). Which accessory I'm not sure. We know Mr. Potato Head could swap out eyes and still be himself.

Don’t forget a cucumber either

I am offended you did not mention Cheez Wiz

All opinions are valid. Except the opinion that anything other than Cheez Whiz goes on a Philly cheesesteak.

What's stupid about it? Nobody was paying attention to this toy before today. And now here we are on a Disney board talking about it.

 

[Krandor]

good lord this board has gone downhill

Disney doesn’t own Mr Potato head so not sure how this is Disney rumors or news.

It's not.

It's relating to a toy whose character appears on Toy Story, so it's semi-related.

At least all the Disney blogs got their click revenue from the story

Did anyone see this? Removing the Mr. from Mr. Potato Head and making him gender neutral. Starting this for some of the wonderful thoughts and opinions that are being regularly expressed on this board lately, specifically the posters in the Peter Pan thread. Some Grade A opinions there.

Where will the line be drawn? Is Mr. Toad’s Wild Ride next? Do they dub over his lines with Mrs, Potato Head in TSL (can we even call her Mrs. anymore)? Oh the humanity!!

Does Disney own Hasbro now?

No but Hasbro owns cartoons that Disney+ airs!

So basically, they are changing the overall brand to "Potato Head" to better reflect both of the characters, and still keeping "Mr Potato Head" and "Mrs Potato Head" as separate toys, and this entire story was nonsense.

Fun!
