What if Mr. Potato Head lived in alternative universes? See Steampunk Mr. Potato Head and Warhammer 40K Mr. Potato Head blaze away!

I’ve always been a fan of alternative history/alternative universes fiction, and although I personally never played Frank Chadwick’s (pen & paper) roleplaying game Space 1889, I had many friends who did, and I really liked the concept.

(By the way, if you happen to like that kind of fiction too, don’t miss Ira’s Alternative Reality News Service Cafe [RIP]!)

Here’s Sarah Calvillo’s awe-inspiring Steampunk Mr. Potato Head:

In the wake of this meme, serious storytelling should commence on the spot.
