Hamm really stole the show for many fans of the Toy Story films. Purchasing a pig costume would allow you to create a Toy Story Halloween costume in Hamm’s image rather easily. He is a piggy bank, so you just need to make it obvious that there’s a coin slot on the back and a cork on the tummy. Of course you can simply find a ready-made Hamm costume online if that’s more up your alley.

Try Mr. Potato Head

A large plastic toy with colorful detachable body parts, Mr. Potato Head is an outspoken character with a sarcastic tone in the movie. And he makes a great Toy Story costume. The challenge here is with creating the interchangeable parts, but imagine the possibilities! You could wear a different Mr. Potato Head costume for each party you go to.

And, for girls, Mrs. Potato Head is a great Toy Story costume choice. She looks similar to Mr. Potato Head, with more feminine looking features. Again, Mrs. Potato Head Toy Story costumes are a great way to show off your creative side!

Sarge Takes Charge
