This should get some people kick started.

To think that I've gone nearly 56 years without knowing of the existence of Mr. Soda Pop Head.

When is someone going to address the outrage of picking a white potato for Mx. Potatohead?

 

[Kamen_Kaiju]

wait until Karen realizes there are 'Red skin' potatos.

So my wife doesn't remember these, but I'm 90% certain that my Mr Potatohead did not actually include the head.
The parts had square, sharp spikes... you could hurt someone with them.
I remember being surprised when a friend got one that included the plastic potato

Mine may have been one of the few hand-me-downs from my brother... mostly I got his science books, board games, jigsaw puzzles, and his marble collection, he's 15 years older so he'd already tossed most of his toys.

I also remember not playing with it much... probably because of my parents' attitude toward wasting food.

*Potato sold separately



The original Mr. Potato Head kit did not come with a potato "body", so parents had to provide their own potato into which children could stick the different pieces. ... Although originally produced as separate plastic parts to be stuck into a real potato or other vegetable, a plastic potato was added to the kit in 1964.

Hard to believe a potato toy could break the world

I swear if all this lunacy continues I’m going to join them and go bang Rosie

So it must have been my brother's, or maybe my sister's.

I wonder what happened to her Barbies.......

 

[CB91710]

Yep!
Now I'm remembering the creepy felt eyebrows attached to the eyes.

Mr Potato Head has chimed in on all of this idiocy

AND you know this how?

Because it's too damn hip to be female.

We are witnessing the end of our civilization... sad times

 

[mgenet]

Yep, cultural icons fall from favor, for what ever reason.
Its been happening for centuries.

It does make for some fun threads though. Stay healthy everyone...
