You might remember the days when Mr. Potato Head consisted of plastic facial parts, arms, legs, etc. with pushpins, but
you provided the (actual) potato or other vegetable. Well, he's
come a long way since he was created by George Lerner in 1949 and first distributed by Hasbro in 1952. Hasbro began including a plastic potato body in the sets in 1964, and later Mr. Potato Head was joined by Mrs. Potato Head, a car, a boat trailer, and various other accessories. Hasbro also changed the product name to simply Potato Head in 2021. Along the way, the popular characters have appeared in the Toy Story franchise, games, and even their own TV show. And of course, there are the toys. These days, there are Potato Heads themed to various pop culture favorites, such as Star Wars and The Mandalorian. They're still as much fun as ever and make great gifts. Give Potato Heads a try… and maybe let your kids play with them too!
