For those that don't know, Engine-Ears Toys is the west coast location for the Disney Build Your Own Mr. Potato Head station. For $18, you get as many parts as you can fit into the box. If you have a potato at home, you can take a box full of parts. Otherwise, you can fill the body with parts and then fill the rest of the box with whatever else will fit. There are supposed to be 20 new pieces (most of which are on sale here on LP store from Florida), as well as a Gold Mickey Ears hat for the 50th. And just so you know, we'll be losing some of the current pieces to make room for these. I still need to buy a few parts from the first two batches before then. I've been putting it off for way too long, but I bought a Darth Tater a few months ago and now that I have a potato body, I want some of the Disney pieces for it.

Someone told me they were able to get 18 of the 20 new pieces into one box, so it's not a bad deal. Parts include Ariel, Tinker Bell, Donald, Goofy, Minnie and some other accessories.. I made a cute little Ariel.. Well, at least *I* think she's adorable.. <a href="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v427/arthurbang/SV400011.jpg" target="_blank">http://img.photobucket.com/alb ums/v427/arthurbang/SV400011.jpg</a>
