Show me your DL Mr.Potato head!!!!!!

[StEpHandMiKe<3Disney]

So even though I have gone to WDW every year since 2004, I have never bought a Mr.Potato head. I think it's because I never saw a finished product until someone posted one as the avatar on the disboards. With the release of Toy Story 3, I have become super interested in Mr.Potato head. My DH and I will be traveling to DLR this July and I would love to get one. I don't know what is available so I would love to see the pics of your Mr.Potato head!!!! Thanks so much!!!!

I don't have pics, but we got the giant Mr. Potato head last year. We have darth vader, stormtroopers, Donald duck shoes/hat/bill, buzz shoes, pirate shoes/eyes with patch, Mickey shoes/ears, Minnie shoes/bow, princess shoes/crown, tinkerbell shoes/wand/hair, and all the tourist gear (cup, mickey ice cream, autograph book, camera).

We have 2 on a book shelf in our bonus room.

I will try to remember to take a picture tonight...we have lots of "outfits" and change them with the seasons. I actually just took of the "santa stuff" oops! I'm a little behind. (and no, I don't have lights still strung outside my house!)

I'm looking forward to it! Thanks!

I have just bought my little one a basic Mr Potato Head and cannot wait to pick up some Disney accessories for him whilst we are at DL.

Make sure you get Mr. Potato Head arms at DL. The arms that come with a regular MPH don't hold the special Disney stuff. (like ice cream and such!)

Thank you for letting me know. I will make sure we pick up
a couple of sets.

I would love to see pics of these! I'm guessing with the small pieces that they probably aren't appropriate for a 2 year old? OTOH, DD2 gets grossed out whenever weird things are in her mouth (paper, her own hair, lint from her clothes, etc.) & we're always watching her, so it shouldn't be a problem.

A quick Google search seems to indicate regular Mr. Potato Head, at least, is good for 24 months and up? http://www.amazon.com/Playskool-Mrs-Potato-Silly-Suitcase/dp/B001AHFP52/ref=pd_sbs_t_2 seems to have a lot of pieces not that different from the size of Disney's, IMO.

Meanwhile, Disney's website says the choose your own Mr. Potato Head station is fun for "kids of all ages."

I'd definitely use your own judgment; you know your girl best.

Ugh...why didn't I think to Google it or check Amazon for age recommendations?! I SWEAR I'm not lazy; just a bit sleep-deprived!

Mr. Potato Head is for ages 2 and up. My 2 yr old LOVES it!!! Ours have already been moved over to the new house, or I'd have the kids put them together for a fashion show. Maybe next week after we finish moving....

I took pictures of our Mr Potato Head but have never posted a picture before. I looks like it loads but doesn't show the picture...is that normal?

Let me try it again....

 

[SeattleTink]

nope, didn't work. any hints on how to make this work?

Lol. Sorry.

The only way I know how to do it is through photobucket or something similar. You can just upload it to the post.

 

[ariel mom]

Do they sell accessories for the Mr. Potato Spuds? Or is it just for the regular sized Mr. Potato Heads?

If you already have your picture on Photobucket/etc. make sure the URL for the image (ending in .jpg most likely) is framed on either side by {IMG} and {/IMG} (replace the curly brackets with the square ones, like [ and ] ).

If it's on Google's Picasa, make sure you either right-click the picture and copy the location, or else use the spiffy options on the right-hand side of your picture and get a URL. If you paste anything in that doesn't end in .JPG (or GIF or maybe PNG) it just won't load.

(I've sometimes used the wrong link to post pictures and sometimes it takes me a while to notice the problem. )

These are from WDW, not DL -- but I would think they'd be mostly the same at both places.

CUTE (both the toys & your DD)! It looks like something my 2-yr. old would like to play with.

How much is the box of potato head parts? I will buy a potato head from walmart and get the parts from DL.

About how many parts fit in a box? I know I need some arms in order to fit the disney stuff in the hands. thanks for that tip!
