== Wooly Probobass? ==
While some still fervently believe Probopass is based on Mr. Potatohead, I do think it has a connection to another classic toy. I've always suspected that [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wooly_willy Wooly Willy], the magnetic toy invented in 1955 where iron filings were used to imitate facial hair on a bald face, was the source of Probopass' trademark mustache. What's your opinion on this?
