Toy Story 3 Mr. Potato Head review and giveaway

by Stefany on July 23, 2010

If you are anything like me, you might have been more excited about seeing the new Toy Story 3 than your kids were. In addition, you might be pretty excited to find out that there are Mr. Potato Head toys out once again in the Toy Story 3 theme!

I don’t recall having a Mr. Potato Head as a kid but I do remember playing with them. I always thought they were so funny and loved changing them to be “wrong” only to make sure it was “right” before being put away for the day. I am a bit of a perfectionist, what can I say?

Well, now my kids have their very own Mr. Potato Head to play with and he can be found in characters from Toy Story 3!!! We received a Spud Lightyear to play with and Johnny was so excited. He was excited because of the character it was dressed up as (BUZZ!) and excited because it is a “cool” toy.

We have been having lots of fun with Spud Lightyear. My kids like to do what I did… they change him into crazy things. I had them take pics from the “right” way and then some funny ones. Here are some examples of their creations.

Spud Lightyear

You can purchase Mr. Potato Head in several characters including the classic Mr. Potato Head, the Mrs. Potato Head, Woody and Spud Lightyear. Each sells for only $9.99. You can find the full collection at HasbroToyShop.com. You can also find Mr. Potato Head on Facebook.

Thanks to Hasbro, I have a Spuds Lightyear to give away to one of you! I hope it provides the same fun it has provided our family!
