  1. Hello! This is a refreshing find! I was browsing for Mr. Potato Head items that may be lurking online, waiting to get bought, when I chanced upon your blog. I've seen this news in the PPW toys website but hearing it from a fellow Filipino sure is fun. :)

    I am a big fan of the Mr. Potato Head toys. I'm still wishing my lucky stars that these two series you featured will be available here in the Philippines. Chances are, it won't (just like Elvis).
