Pontiki Pods

Beyond Mr Potato Head

They're colorful, customizable, and so hot right now. As the Pontiki website describes, "Pontiki pods are colorful geometric shapes that connect to other shapes. Mini parts are stored inside and can be used as eyes, hands, feet, mouth, or whatever you decide. With unlimited possibilities the combinations are endless! (Basically that means you can distract yourself from what you're supposed to be doing for quite a while.) Unlock the inner artist in you and create your own Pontiki style today."
