Trick or Tater showcases the marketing genius of the Playskool folks. The package is decorated with images of bats flittering in the light of a quarter moon. A turn of the package reveals more little bats, pictures of the Potato Man in his ghostly attire, , a cat, and more little ghosts and little bats. On the back we see an outstanding creation of Mr. Potato Head wearing a nose on his forehead, his vampire ears placed below the outstretched arms. It's an inspirational variation that will motivate kids to create even zanier configurations.

The glow in the dark feature of the eyes works wonderfully. I charged them up under a light and observed their brightness in a dark room. Children will love the effect.

Hasbro/Playskool has a winner with the Trick or Tater Mr. Potato Head. I think that the latest presentation of Potato Head wearing fangs and bat ears is starker and more riveting that the tater toy wearing a sheet. Those who prefer the tamer, less frightening ghost potato may dress him up that way. This is a variation that should retain interest for years and be resurrected each Halloween, perhaps with a fresh approach. I was amused by the questioner who seemed underwhelmed because this toy didn't do anything. Mr. Potato Head is a throw back to another time, a time predating computer chips and expensive electronic toys. Trick or Tater Mr. Potato Head is an opportunity for children to stretch and exercise their imaginations, to engage in pretend and creativity, to examine and explore all possibilities, and to just enjoy being a child creating memories that last a lifetime.

I got this a while ago. The Potato Heads are great, but plan on finding something else to store the parts in. My Daughter ruined the case in 3 weeks. We now have them in a large bag.

We needed another potato head so our girls would both have one, so we got this set to add to their Silly Suitcase. We love the fangs, pointy ears (ours are Halloween green), and glow in the dark eyes!

I own a lot of these Mr. Potato heads, Spudtrooper, Darth Tater, R2-Potatoo, they're are a fab gift for collectors and children alike!

My husband bought this as a present for our grandson, who liked the StarWars Mr Potato, he thought it looked exactly like the Halloween costume of ET. Funny so does everyone else. The reason for 4 stars instead of 5, for playing purposes, the sheet limits the possibilities and our grandsons seem to leave it off - but then if he didn't have the sheet he wouldn't be ET??
