Usually the inside of a Mr.Potato Head is full of hilarious facial features; not so for this Mr. PH--he was packing something a little more...profitable. Officials searching a package from Ireland coming into Australia were surprised by a head full of heady substances. I can see it now: The Rave Model Mr. Potato Head comes complete with soothers, glow sticks and a brain with removable pieces--one chunk for every tab consumed!

Upon opening the parcel, the officers were greeted with the smiling face of the popular children's toy, which features a potato-like head and removable facial features.

But when they removed a panel from the back of the toy, the officers found 293 grams of ecstasy in a plastic bag.
