TSM Potato Head AA Finished

[Rob562]

I wonder/assume he can do more than just remove his ear. Perhaps he can raise his hat (it looks like a separate item in the picture), maybe even do something else? (Perhaps taking his moustache on and off like in the movie might be a bit too much to to?)

And am I the only one who's seeing this and flashes back to the "Are You Being Served?" episode where a Mr. Grace talking mannequin tried to raise his hat (while saying "Welcome to my store") and ended up taking the entire head off with it?

Whoever commented about the eyes, I believe they are similar to Buzz's face being projected on like the AA in Buzz Lightyear Ranger Spin. Don't quite remember, so I could be wrong.

I agree. I think they will be able to move more naturally, (the same as Buzz's face.), and there is probably less chance of mechanical breakdown, than with a mechanical set of eyes with a lot of moving parts.

I don't remember that episode, but your comment definitely reminided me of the episode where they have a talking Santa Claus mannequin that has unfortunate flasher tendencies! :xmas::lol:
It's a good thing Grace bros. will not be responsible for making any of the WDW AAs.

I'm guessing the timing was good for Mr. Rickles as I know that the new Toy Story is coming out in a couple years, and they record all the voice work well ahead of time, so he may have been doing Potato Head voice work anyway.

Looks good, I can't wait to see it in action!

Great Picture! It will be a challenge to keep the line moving with this baby. They might have to resort to moving sidewalks.

Is it me, or is there something "Richard Pryor"-ish about the mustache and mouth?




maybe, it's just me...:veryconfu

Let's just hope Mr. Potato Head's language isn't as colorful as Richard Pryors was.:lookaroun

I LOVE "Are You Being Served?" and I remember that episode!!

 

[CrashNet]

Did I hear somewhere he could change his parts out? Or was that my imagination (or me dreaming)?

 

[darthjohnny]

Looks great!

Will he actually be able to pull his ear in and out? Or do you think it's permanently attacted to his hand?

 

[EpcotServo]

Looks amazing! 'Bout time the TRUE stars of Toy Story (Mr. Potato Head and Hamm) got their own ride!

 

[Piebald]

I believe only his ear will come out. Let's not forget he has a microphone in one hand and he can only do so much with the other.... I mean it has a lot of mechanism inside that you have to remember. They're good... but not THAT good. :lol:

I could be wrong though...Mr. Potato Head was in development in CA so he wasn't really mentioned as far as TSM itself except for where he would be in relation to the queue.

Or Don Rickles, for that matter.

Wonder what the big blue walls are? Im assuming just extensions and then to be turned into some sort of facade?

[WDWFigment]

This looks like it will soon be one of my favorite queues on property!
