Mr. Potato Head Takes On Star Trek

July 9, 2023 by noemi

Star Trek Potato Heads

Mark your calendars, Mr. Potato Head lovers. The guys behind these adorably hilarious toy figures have come up with a brilliant idea – Star Trek Mr. Potato Heads. Everyone loves Mr. Potato Head. I think that’s why some of my friends have decided to “drop their interest” in them, actually. You know those kind of people who decide not to like something because everyone else likes it?

Anyhow, this development is something that one really cannot help but get excited about. A mash up of your favorite Star Trek characters and Mr. Potato Head. Pardon me, but it is an epic win! The series is going to kick off with none other than Captain Kirk and his original Klingon nemesis, Kor. This first set is going to hit the shelves in August of this year, but they are accepting pre-orders to cater to those who want to make sure that they are among the first to receive Potato Head Kirk and Potato Head Kor. For $30 – which will only be charged on your credit card once the delivery details have been confirmed – you can be among the first to receive this signature line.

I have to be honest and say that the first time I saw the image above, I was not sure how to react. One part of me was thinking “Hilarious!” while another part was saying “Oh, Kirk. That is so NOT you.” Then again, this is NOT Kirk. It is Potato Head Kirk. I guess the designers actually did justice to both brands.

Star Trek fans: what are your thoughts?

The Walking Dead TV Series 2 Action Figures Revealed!

Who’s missing The Walking Dead? I know I am! Just the other night, I dreamt that I was battling zombies with long sharp machetes and swords that had some magic powers as well. I don’t know if that was a missing The Walking Dead sign, but yeah, October 14 cannot come soon enough. ((I guess it doesn’t help that my housemate has thing for knives, and that we have a really nice machete above the front door.))

If you are feeling just as bereft, and you like collecting action figures, then you’ll love the fact that McFarlane Toys and AMC have announced The Walking Dead TV Series 2 action figures. Up there we have Rick Grimes, whom you either hate or love – with a passion. But, is it just me or is it hard to see the resemblance in the facial features?

The Board of Imagination: Mind-controlled Skateboard

Is it just me or are people paying more attention than usual to boards? It was not long ago that we heard about Mattel’s announcement that they will be releasing hoverboards like the one Marty McFly used in the Back to the Future franchise. While that hoverboard is going to be for real, it will not be hovering as one would want it to be. Instead, it will just be skimming over surfaces. Still a not-too-bad idea.

If skimming boards are not enough to make you feel happy, how about a skateboard that rolls over surfaces like any other skateboard, but with a huge plus: a mind-controlled skateboard? [Read more…] about The Board of Imagination: Mind-controlled Skateboard

Mattel to Release Back to the Future Hoverboards

Back to the Future is something I grew up with, and it will always hold a special place in my heart. Call it mushy if you want, but I am sure that many people of my generation will say the same thing. Never mind the 80s fashion and everything else that went with that era. The Back to the Future franchise is still hard to beat!

Of course, when it comes to Back to the Future, hoverboards will always be part of the discussion. I bet that anyone who was even remotely influenced by the movies dreams of having a real life hoverboard one day. [Read more…] about Mattel to Release Back to the Future Hoverboards
