Mr. Potato Head is an American toy manufactured and distributed by Hasbro since 1952. It is a plastic model of a potato that can be decorated with several plastic parts that attach to the toy's body. Some examples of the pieces include ears, eyes, shoes, hats, noses, and a mouth. The toy was invented and designed by George Lerner in 1949.
