WORLD'S MOST EXPENSIVE MR. POTATO HEAD

The Mr. Potato Head has definitely evolved over the many years since it first hit the shelves as toys that could be stuffed into a real potato to make it look strange and funny. It then metamorphosed into a plastic toy potato and before you knew it, there was just about any kind of Mr. Potato Head that you could imagine lining the shelves! But there are a select few Mr. Potato Heads that will never end up on the shelves with all the others – these are the most expensive Mr. Potato Heads in the world.

The plastic frames of the Mr. Potato Heads are the same as the typical ones that you can find anywhere but designer Jay Strongwater has placed by his own hand over 50,000 Swarovski crystals. These crystals are truly brilliant and will sparkle as they show off all of their seventeen different colors! Once Strongwater was finished completely covering the Mr. Potato Head with crystals, he signed each Mr. Potato Head. In 2004, they were sold in the Neiman Marcus catalogue and cost a pricey $8,000 each!
