Trivia

 * Mr. Potato Head's line in Toy Story "What are you lookin' at, ya hockey puck?" is one of Rickles' catchphrases.
 * Rickles also starred in Martin Scorsese's film Casino, which was released on November 22, 1995 (the same day Toy Story was released).
 * He was going to reprise his role as Mr. Potato Head in Toy Story 4, but he did not record any dialogue before his death. It is uncertain how Rickles' death will affect Mr. Potato Head's role in the fourth film, though rumors are circulating that archive recording of Rickles' voice will be used.
