One-Eyed Bart and Evil Dr. Porkchop
Wait a minute, where did you get the lips and angry eyes for Mr. Potato Head from? This isn’t the new film accurate one we heard was coming out in the fall, is it?
No, he got those parts from various potato heads i belioeve. I know the eyes came from oneof those disney theme park potato head stores. Remind me though, in the film, did one eyed bart have a skull on his eye patch?
Not sure. I know I had a Mr. Potato Head pirate kit as a kit with an eyepatch. I’m pretty sure it’s still in my basement.
In the film it was just a regular eye patch.
No skull on the patch. just the button he almost presses.
Edit: beaten to it by mere seconds, heh.
Yep, the eyepatch eyes come from the Disney Parks Mr. Potato Head station. The mouth came from the 50th Birthday Mr. Potato Head kits.
The parts aren’t quite accurate but overall they create a good impression of One-Eyed Bart. You could even paint over the skull if you wanted it plain black like TS3.
This has its own thread, but should go in this one too, since I could consider this to be in the replica territory. its the train from andy’s room.

The only real downside I see so far is the lack of a tender (the coal car that’s supposed to be behind the loco). and its supposed to have 8 cars I believe, so that would make this 4 short. that is, if we’re going by the imagination world. in Andy’s actual room I could only count about 3 or 4, so who knows, this Could be accurate to what was really in his room. its hard to make out.
I went to Wal-Mart yesterday & saw a Mrs Potato Head. I was tempted to buy it. But I couldn’t. The eyes were bad. Very bad. Should I wait till Fall for Mrs?
Re: Mrs Potato Head
I don’t think anyone has found any information about the supposedly screen-accurate (from hat to shoes) Mr and Mrs Potato Heads other than the original blurb mentioning a Fall 2010 release.
I’m waiting, but I hope the wait is worth it.
I Noticed That Hamm Is Not As Sqeezable Anymore. It Must Have Had To Do With The Fact That It Was 95 Degrees F Out There.
Yes. You Should.
Got my alien desk light from Kelloggs today. I wasn’t even expecting it because I never got my order confirmation. I thought I had to pay shipping and was waiting for their email, which I never got.
I know it’s not a replica, but it seems to be the place people are posting these, so what the hey.
That’s pretty cool.
I was only interested in Hamm, but at least I can see what it’s like. I thought it looked quite a bit like the TSC aliens on the box, but obviously the inaccuracies here are that it’s off-scale and the antennae is shorter. The glowing effect however is awesome, and I probably would have gotten it for that. Can you also squeeze it in any way?
You cannot squeeze it at all, no.
I assume that’s why they made the antenna shorter, because they didn’t want it to break off. also notice the ears connect to the head more linearly, instead of curving downward. Again I believe this is to prevent them from breaking off. being made of hard breakable plastic means you cant have the thin features.
it looks nothing like it does on the box because they just used a render there, and photoshoped a cord onto it.
I didnt really want it myself, but I figured it was either that or another free ticket to see the movie a third time. since I already saw it twice (2D and 3D) I might as well get something else with my codes. the Hamm they got is inferior to the Disney store Hamm in every way, so I went with this. partly because I actually do have a use for it as a desk light. Sometimes I like to use my laptop with the lights off, but cant see my keyboard, so its nice that it actually serves a purpose.
So, you think they used the TSC aliens to render on the box?
No, they simply used promo renders, from the film. no toys or sculpts involved.
Unlike the Hamm and even the t-shirt, which are photos, the alien image they used does not exist at all in the real world.
That alien looks real cool.
Wampar, I grabbed that Bucket O Soldiers label you posted and tweaked it to my liking. Now all I have to do is print it out on some glossy paper. Thank you so much!
And I tried to make the medical army man just like you did (since I have so many Sarges), but it didn’t work. Luckily, I was able to scratch it all off his helmet.
Has anybody got this two-pack? I ask because the Woody in that set seems to be pretty accurate, proportion-wise, moreso than the TSC one. That’s assuming the actual size is about the same, but given the low price tag I assume that they’re a bit smalled than the TSC version.
dont buy the woody doll is a robot thing when they interact woody’s eyes move by themselves unless your interested in that then go ahead
