- Artist George Lerner gave the world Mr. Potato Head. Since discovering them in 3,000 B.C. humans have found that potatoes can be boiled, baked, fried, mashed, steamed, whipped, and of course, adorned with human plastic body parts. This is the Mr. Potato Head Edition of Where's the Fun from? (WTFF)

It’s really amazing that mr potato head was the first toy commercial
Yes, Zeno. That makes the toy even more iconic. Thanks for stopping by!
R.I.P. Don Rickles - 1926 - 2017…… “What are you looking at, ya hockey puck?” May his spud-slinging soul Rest In Peace….

I'm 40, so I remember the Mr. Potato Head from the late 80's early 90's.
"He's Mr. Potato Head, and his bucket of parts, buckets of fun for everyone"
Yes, Malcorub!
This video is one of the reasons I bought a old mr potato head from the antique store
Does my heart good, @MatthewzCollectablez. Thanks for watching and sharing
Spud Lightyear, Patrick Starch, SpudBob Squarepants, Tow Tater, Fryer Rudolph, Jason Spudakeis!
So very punny!
I love potato head 🥔
Definitely Mr. Potato Head is one of my all time favorite childhood toys and even still today I have mine along with his Mrs. Along with my Woody, Zurg and Buzz collection from the Toy Story movies
Nice, Matt. Thanks for stopping by!
Please do a part 2
Unbelievable to think that the original Mr. Potato Head did not come with his own Potato!
Right?! So cool. Thanks for watching and commenting! Coming soon... BARBIE!
Thank you Tim, this is another great video. Love this!!!
You're welcome, TheMidnightsky52. Seize the Play!
Great history video, Tim!

Thanks Cars Cheap, welcome!
“He lost his arms and was certainly not happy about it.”

When I was a kid, I had a nightmare. I lost PotatoHead's left arm and legs, a few days later I had a dream he floated out of my closet and bit off my legs and my right arm and said "You'd better follow me or I'll bite off your other arm and your head!" So I sadly said okay and he levitated me to my closet, then I woke up and swore to never play with PotatoHead again.
Oh my god sent it to the volcano
@@nazrimatsom7845 Weird right? Maybe maybe we just have much more stranger dreams as children.
Mr potato head finally a history video, thank you 😊 🤩👍
I know this is a late reply, SpRiNgy Bonk, but thanks and you're welcome. Hoping to make this channel grow.
@@SeizethePlay thank you for responding I hope you have a great day.😃👍
Wow, this was a well made video. Keep it up
Thanks Retro_Jojo!
We got my daughter a Mr. Potato head for Christmas and my mother remarked " back in my day, Mr. Potato head used real potatoes". That led me to finding your video, and now I know the history. Thanks!
@@retro_jojo3159 Awesome!
Yes, Twitter almost imploded on February 25, 2021 over the gender of Mr. and Mrs. Potato Head. Hasbro tweeted, “While it was announced today that the POTATO HEAD brand name & logo are dropping the ‘MR.’ I yam proud to confirm that MR. & MRS. POTATO HEAD aren’t going anywhere and will remain MR. & MRS. POTATO HEAD."
I think it's a dumb Marketing Stunt. Sounds like it's trying to breach an audience that I don't even think is even interested to Potato head toys. I can only think they did this to be the first "Inclusive" Toy in the market but IDK how a toy is not inclusive if a toy for me is a physical manifestation of a concept/idea.
@@chillstoneblakeblast3172 you were probably mad when they took away his tobacco pipe 😭
neat content Tim Walsh. I crushed the thumbs up on your video. Keep on up the superb work.
Ha! I see why you did there, Keyser the Red Beard. Thanks for the feedback!
@@SeizethePlay No problem at all, always happy to support my fellow content creators. I am looking forward to improving on my own current video format I have uploaded and, in the future, trying to create content as good as yours in the long-term.
I have mr orange head and mister potato head from 1960s
4:38 what about a mr watermelon head
... a challenging balancing act!
Yo vi que en la pantalla del video yo vi que el señor cara de papa del año 1983 abrazó un señor cara de papa de 1952😮😮😮😮😂😂😂
And I have a 1976 potato head
That's awesome, Gabriel.
wait, are you the guy who wrote timeless toys?
Indeed I am. Hope you liked it.
@@SeizethePlay loved it, you should write a book dedicated to Mr. PoTato Head
@@potatoheadpokemario1931 He is one popular potato. 🥔 Perhaps one day...
6:17
1975
I LIKE MISTER POTATO HEAD FROM 1974
Thanks Alyx. He was all HEAD! : )
for most kids (like myself) the 80's version is the definitive Mr. PoTato Head because that was the version that was sold the longest
I saw sharp pieces
How is he not scared of the old potato heads
You gotta love your veggies, they're good for you!
