French Fry, I am your father!

Hasbro has announced the release of the "Playskool Mr. Potato Head Darth Tater" and I must have one! Being that I am now a father, I can use that as an excuse to get one, too. (I won't tell anyone that the suggested age range for Darth Tater is 2+, considering my little one is just shy of nine months old.) The toy will retail for $7.99 and be available ahead of the release of Episode III. Have you ever seen something that looks so cute and menacing at the same time? It reminds me a little of the Darth Vader character from the old LucasArts game Night Shift (1990), which, incidentally, is the only title to feature both Star Wars and Indiana Jones characters in the same game!
