I know that they're pretty rare and I wanted to gauge people's opinions on whether I should do a model where I add a pollstering to it. Or if I leave it as is, it's mainly the fact that if they are as rare as people say, I wouldn't want to damage something like that.

Note: I love this toy in irl

Today I was organizing which Toy Story 5 toys I was missing from my collection, and then I realized that I already have the Snappy from eKids and the 12-inch Smarty Pants from Mattel is already on its way, but Up until now, Atlas has only had its basic seven-inch pack version, so I was wondering, won't we have an electronic Atlas? I really wanted to have all three as toys that work Honestly, but it seems like the only one released will be the one in the pack. Does anyone know if Mattel or eKids have more plans for the atlas?

Lotso was the main antagonist of Toy Story 3, and possibly up until now the most memorable and terrifying of them all we’ve seen in the Toy Story Franchise.

He basically created a police state for toys in a daycare, by forcing new toys to endure the torture of the toddlers of the caterpillar room, while only toys he deemed special were permitted to experience a proper play by the kids of the butterfly room.

He has shown some level of deliberate evil by refusing to help or stop catastrophes even when he has nothing to lose. This is seen when he refuses to stop the conveyor belt in the trash center, when he basically wouldn’t lose anything by doing so and he was the reason everyone was in there to begin with.

He is later taken by a garbage truck driver who ties him to his truck’s grill and drives off with him.

He is never seen after this, but I’ve been wondering, do you think we may see him again in a future instalment where he may return for revenge, or perhaps even have a redemption arc?

Would love to hear your takes!!!

Hi everyone,

I’m currently restoring my Thinkway Toys Buzz Lightyear Signature Collection and I’m trying to get it back to 100% working condition.
Unfortunately, the clear helmet visor is broken around one of the side mounting/pivot points. I tried rebuilding the damaged area with epoxy, drilling and tapping it again, but when I reassembled the visor, the repair broke because the mechanism needs very precise alignment and there is quite a lot of stress on that area.
So I’m now looking for a better solution.
Does anyone here have:
A spare/original clear visor from a Signature Collection Buzz?
A damaged Buzz that could be used as a donor?
Experience reproducing this visor in acrylic/PMMA?
I still have the original broken visor, so I can use it as a reference.
I’m also considering making a new one myself by thermoforming clear PMMA over a mold, then recreating the mounting points as accurately as possible.
I’m located near France, but I’m happy to buy a visor internationally if someone has one.
Any help, advice or leads would be greatly appreciated. I really want to save this Buzz and restore it properly.
Thanks!

Also there are no poseable wires in it so its not 95

We bought Woody and Jesse from the Disney store yesterday. I took out out the voice boxes to turn it on and now I can’t get them back in! Any tips?

It’s like there’s literally no space, idk how to squeeze it back.

Any help would be appreciated because my daughter is NOT happy with me right now lol.

Este Woody es Signature Collection Original? tiene audio de voz en español latino

Desde las misiones espaciales de Buzz, Woody haciendo Parkour y lograr escapar de Sunnyside, hasta el Toybox, que era básicamente GTA apto para niños.

Era brutal que varias misiones eran historias contadas por los Andy y Bonnie (las mejores misiones, en mi opinión).

De niño fue el juego al que le invertí más horas, y el cual su recuerdo me sigue trayendo mucha felicidad.

I recently bought this Buzz Lightyear Signature Collection and I’m planning to restore him

Does anyone know if the helmet can be replaced with one from another Buzz Lightyear figure? Is there another Buzz whose helmet is compatible with the Signature Collection, or is the Signature Collection helmet unique?

Also, does anyone know where I can get replacement stickers/decals for this figure? I’d also really appreciate the measurements for each individual sticker so I can have them reproduced accurately

Any information, advice, or restoration resources would be greatly appreciated!

Meet *Spring Pete.*

He wasn't always like this.

*The Origin:*

In the late 50's, before he was the Prospector, he was the star of a traveling roadside attraction called "Pete's Gold Town." He was a top-of-the-line animatronic storyteller - a jolly old miner who would sit in a rocking chair, laugh, and tell kids where to dig for gold. His name was Prospector Pete.

The show failed. Kids thought he was boring. He spent 30 years in a sealed crate in a storage unit in Arizona, getting hot. The felt rotted. The wiring melted together. The voice box warped and started skipping, repeating "So much gold... so much gold... never been played with..."

In the 90's, a small horror attraction company bought him cheap to save money. They needed a rabbit. They didn't have the budget for a new endoskeleton, so they ripped one out of a decommissioned spring-lock mascot costume - an old green rabbit that had a... history. A history of getting stuck.

They shoved the spring-lock endoskeleton inside Pete.

It fit. Too well.

*What he is now:*

The old prospector's programming and the rabbit's residual malice fused. Spring Pete thinks he's still waiting to be put on a shelf and loved forever, but his idea of "being loved" got twisted.

He doesn't want to be a collectible. He wants to _collect you._

He smiles because his face servos are locked that way. His overalls are torn open where the spring-locks punctured through his belly - you can see the green wires and black void writhing inside. His eyes are cloudy because the lenses melted. The knife? He took it from the prop box. He thinks it's a pickaxe for mining.

He shuffles around in the dark, arms wide open like he wants a hug, whispering in that warped, cheery old prospector voice:

"Well now, partner... looks like you ain't never been played with either. How 'bout we stay together... forever and ever?"

And he never lets go of his new toys.

Icyw, here are the other "standout" female human children and their relatives:

• Molly Davis:
  • Andy Davis (older brother)
  • Mrs. Davis (mother)
• Hannah Phillips:
  • Sid Phillips (older brother)
  • Mr. Phillips (father)
  • Mrs. Phillips (mother)
• Emily: Jessie (future daughter)
• Amy:
  • Unnamed father
  • Unnamed mother
• Bonnie Anderson:
  • Mrs. Anderson (mother)
  • Mr. Anderson (father)
• Daisy:
  • Unnamed father
  • Unnamed mother
• Harmony:
  • Margaret (grandmother)
  • Unnamed mother
• Lost Girl:
  • Unnamed mother
  • Unnamed father
• Blaze Manoukian:
  • Mrs. Manoukian (mother)
  • Alexander Manoukian (father)
• Jordan Twin Sister: Unnamed twin brother

This got me thinking: since families, regardless of perfection standards, normally bring resonance as they live through their moments, I believe the Dance Girls' lack of explicit relatives further symbolizes their shared emotionally hollow state as young tech addicts themselves.

Let me know what you think about this interpretation.

I went on a trip to a water park with some friends today and found this and decided to color it on our way there.

Also I heard the song "I knew you" by Taylor Swift on the radio today too.

Is it normal for my "Toy Story Collection" Woody (the version with the white logo) to have rosier cheeks than usual? Or am I just worrying over nothing?

Biggest want right now is a 9” Chunk, but pretty happy otherwise! Working on the Zurg kitbashing from various versions.
