What do you get when you cross Darth Vader with a starchy vegetable that goes good with gravy? Darth Tater. It’s a new toy that Hasbro has planned for a release in February, a few months before the latest installment of the Star Wars saga arrives in theaters. It’s Mr. Potato Head, but with a dark side. He comes complete with the standard issue eyes, nose, and mouth, but also a light saber, cape, and helmet. I’m sure that this toy is geared toward kids, but I can’t help but wonder how many twenty- or thirty-something nerds (like me) will buy one for themselves. Under the guise that it’s for a nephew’s birthday present, of course.

Hey thanks for the “Heads Up”! I now know the perfect gift for my son (who’s 17, not 7).
