Singing Mrs Potts

 

Beauty and the Beast merch has been taking over shelves everywhere with the upcoming release of the live action movie. It has been absolute heaven on earth for all of us Beauty and the Beast fans and it’s getting harder and harder to keep up. I know my bank balance is definitely taking a hit.

One inexpensive and very adorable piece I managed to pick up while I was in the States was this adorable Singing Mrs Potts toy by Mattel from Toys R Us. This Singing Mrs Potts toy is $8.99 US dollars and is a Toys R Us exclusive. Mrs Potts measures approximately 3.5 inches (length) x 3 inches (height) x 2.5 inches (width) and sings a portion of the Tale as Old as Time song. Mrs Potts’ teapot lid is covered in glitter and has a little button on top to make her sing.

This Singing Mrs Potts toy may not be the most detailed or fancy toy around, but considering the low cost of the toy, I think she looks very cute and looks very much like Mrs Potts. The singing element is definitely what makes the toy special and brings Mrs Potts to life.

I really have no complaints about the look or design of the toy at all. My only complaint about the toy is that Mrs Potts does not sing the entire Tale as Old as Time song. It’s also a bit of a shame that the song is not sung by Angela Lansbury, the voice of Mrs Potts who sang the song in the movie, but that is to be expected for the toy as toys rarely have the original voices from the movie.

The excerpt from the song sung by this Singing Mrs Potts toy is:

Bitter sweet and strange

Finding you can change 

Learning you were wrong

Certain as the Sun

Rising in the east

Tale as old as time 

Song as old as rhyme 

Beauty and the Beast

If you are a Beauty and the Beast fan and are looking for a new addition to your toy collection, or even a cute little piece for your bookshelf or desktop, this Singing Mrs Potts is perfect. She’s small, she’s cute, and inexpensive. I highly reccomend this toy as she’s a great display piece and brings a little magic to your day with her song. You can find this Singing Mrs Potts toy in your local Toys R Us or on the Toys R Us website.

**An important thing to keep in mind if you are ordering this toy from the Toys R Us website is that the dimensions in the product description on the Toys R Us website at the time of this post are incorrect. A number of people have made complaints as they were expecting a Singing Mrs Potts that is 8 x 8 x 3 inches. It is possible these dimensions are based on the size of the packaging rather than the actual toy. Please note that the dimensions of the actual toy are approximately 3.5 x 3 x 2.5 inches.
