Fun facts (outside of Toy Story): 1. Hasbro released a Mr. Potato Head toy similar to the Thinkway Toys one in 2010. This one called “Talking Popping Tater”. Despite that there is an English commercial, only French and Spanish versions were released. This toy has 3 game modes. I got two Spanish versions in my collection. They used to work, but sadly they don’t. 2. The “Potato Head” rebrand from 2021 is literally the worst idea that Hasbro made. 3. In 2019 alongside the Toy Story 4 Potato Heads, Hasbro released another Mr. Potato Head toy called “Movin' Lips”. the toy has two buttons (one is for phrases and the other is for the songs) and it has two mouths. Its eyes has eyebrows over it. 4. In that same year as above, Hasbro also released a set of 4 Mr. Potato Head toys that are similar to the Playskool TS4 Mr. and Mrs. Potato Head. They use the 2010 body, but the shoes and most parts from the 90's and 2000's versions. Fun facts (inside of Toy Story brand): 1. Hasbro reissue the Toy Story 1 and 2 Mr. Potato Head in 2002 with the "Toy Story and Beyond!" brand. And then again in 2005, with some extra parts being removed. 2. Mr. Potato Head disguised as a Tortilla or a cucumber in Toy Story 3 makes a reference to its origins.
Also, outside of Toy Story, on July 1, 2024, Hasbro redesigned the Potato Heads to look more friendlier to toddlers. This included having yet smaller potato bodies, with no extra holes on the sides. The round holes are replaced by hexagon-shaped holes to hold the pegs in place without falling off, and the storage compartment was made longer. Their pupils are now Pac-Man-shaped, they now have seperate pants and shoes, the gloves are removed, and Mr. Potato Head now has lips like in the movie, as well as a slide for the mustache. The simple, flatter parts that have been in use for 14 years, have been replaced with new detailed ones. However, the old parts are still compatible with the new bodies, and vice versa.
I noticed that in the potato head create your own family set has an eye piece with eyebrows so.... thecnically you can use that piece,change the pupil in the style of the 1983-2010 for a sort of movie accurate mr potato head from toy story.
When I first got the Toy Story Collection of Mr. Potato Head back in 2010 when I was 7 or 8, I was kind of bummed out about how it wasn't accurate like the film but I did got used to it
It bothers me how Toy Story Mr. Potato Head after Toy Story Mr. Potato Head released, we once again do not get separated eyes with eyeholes and separated feet/shoes like they’re supposed to be in the movies
did you know that in the early days of Mr. Potato Head, there was a toy called "Mr. Dunkie Donut Head", which was released exclusively for Dunkin' Donuts restaurants when it was a much smaller chain?
I'm surprised there's no mention of the 80s cartoon Potato Head Kids and the 90s show The Mr. Potato Head Show. I guess it's because you're only focusing on the main Potato Head line and Toy Story stuff and/or you didn't know those existed.
The 80s Mr. Potato Head was my childhood well the 90s version!

How exactly is number 2 a fun fact? Also, care to explain why you think the "Potato Head" rebrand was Hasbro's worst idea?
Uh, not really. I prefer the old Potato Head toys before 2021.

I remember getting a lot of the Potatu Head toys as a kid.

I find it funny there are two Seinfeld actors in Toy Story 2.
Do these next: Mrs. Potato Head, Slinky Dog, Etch-A-Sketch, Barbie, Ken, Chatter Telephone, etc.
Technically, I already covered Mrs. Potato Head in this video. But the others I will do in the future.

I don’t understand why they don’t just make it look like the movie 😭
Well reason why it’s because in real life Mr potato head has one eye hole and two eyes in one peg while in the movie he has 2 eye holes
@@tylerhinkle2005that didn’t answer the question but ok
@@SonicEXEProductions well that was the best I can think of so pull your pants down

MORE EPISODES PLEASE
did you know that in the early days of Mr. Potato Head, there was a toy called "Mr. Dunkie Donut Head", which was released exclusively for Dunkin' Donuts restaurants when it was a much smaller chain?
I find this Ironic as on July 1st on Amazon UK a new Potato Head listing popped up which is described to have separated shoes
I used to play with the toy story Mr potato head all the time
This Was Great!, very well researched 😁
Not gonna lie the 90s Mr Potato head toys are so creepy
Yesss Potato vs potato but real
I'm surprised there's no mention of the 80s cartoon Potato Head Kids and the 90s show The Mr. Potato Head Show.
I guess it's because you're only focusing on the main Potato Head line and Toy Story stuff and/or you didn't know those existed.
Hey Lane, for this new series, I think you should do slinky dog or etch or Mr spell next. They have very interesting history’s.🙂
They changed the potato head design again
Hasbro has been around for a very long time
Mr. Potato Head
Will Barbie be the next character for the Toy Story: Fact vs. Fiction episode?
Thank you for the question. I was thinking that Slinky Dog would be my next episode, but the third would be Barbie.
Request: can you make a history video about Moose and Zee from Noggin 2003-2012 and Nickelodeon Play Date second era 2009-2012 just please
While I currently don't plan on making a video on either topic at the moment, I will take the Moose and Zee idea into consideration in the future.
Was that Bart
