May the farce be with you. There's no greater accolade in show-business than a spot of tattyfication. And now the legendary droid R2-D2 is the latest in a line of characters to have been given a potato makeover courtesy of Mr Potato Head. Now Artoo can be at the heart of the action to reclaim the galaxy from the Empire and boost its carbohydrate intake at the same time. Marvellous.

Dressing Mr Potato Head as R2-D2 is the place where a truly stellar clash of cultures happens. Yet it strangely seems like it was meant to be. And, just in case fans of the original Potato Head feel left out, there's a standard issue Potato face - and a maniacal grin - included for good measure.

What's that Artoo? You want to join your brothers and sisters back underground in the muddy field? I'm afraid that's just not possible. For one, you're a droid. And for another thing Princess Leia has encoded a special message deep in your metallic innards. So get with the program, or it's chips glorious chips for you.
