Mr Potato Head History

First invented in 1949, the original Mr Potato Head toy was the first toy ever to be advertised directly to children on TV. That’s when Mr Potato Head was only the face parts sold as pushpins which were designed to be stuck onto real potatoes to make a face. While it was a unique and great idea, there were a few issues. Children were often reluctant to throw away their favourite Mr Potato Heads, and rotting vegetables are never good to keep around. Plus, there were many injured kids due to the sharp pushpins, so in 1964 they started including a plastic potato body in and a legend was born.
