Bottom Line of Toy Story Toys Upfront

Toy Story is a moving, charming, and worthwhile Disney-Pixar collaboration that inspires children to look after their toys. I’ll be sure to give some tips on how to achieve it. But, first, the movie and iconic characters ignite nostalgia like no other film. Therefore, I’ll be selecting nostalgic toys representing iconic characters.

In addition, the closer the toys look and work compared to the movie icons, the better. That way, these toys can become cherished choices for young fans and collectibles for older fans. But first, let’s see which Toy Story toy ignites my nostalgic passions. The Disney Toy Story Woody, Jessie, & Buzz Figure Pack is my ultimate choice.

The pack is an affordable collection suitable for children and adults. The characters look as they do in the films and have interactive qualities to match the voices. Ultimately, you can’t beat putting three icons in one pack. However, I chose a few best Toy Story toys of all time. So, let’s see a glimpse.

Some More Ultimate Toy Story Toys at a Glance

I won’t spoil your anticipation entirely. Therefore, I’ll share four more top picks to show you how I match the icons to their on-screen toys. Then, you can learn how I picked them and how to help children cherish iconic toys. But first, here’s a glance at four more legends:

The Disney Toy Story Interactive Buzz Lightyear Figure comes in packaging that looks like the movie’s initial icon at the supermarket. Additionally, the toy has sound effects that match his character.
The Disney Toy Story Mr. Potato Head Figure is a unique piece I chose. It reminds children of how the character loses his ears and eyes during the movies. Kids can take him apart and put him back together.
The Disney Toy Story Slinky Dog Talking Action Figure is an exciting piece that works interactively for younger children. In addition, it resembles the on-screen character to make the toy collectible.
The Disney Toy Story Woody & Bullseye Figure Pack is another collectible joy for kids and adults. The duo is the most iconic friendship in the first movie, and both characters remain throughout the other films.

How to Select the Best Toy Story Toys of All Time

Disney movies inspire nostalgia, and I’ve watched a few that crept deep into my memories. Toy Story is one of them. Therefore, I’ll use nostalgia to pick the best Toy Story toys fans will cherish. In addition, it will ensure they follow my coming tips, meaning each of the best Toy Story toys of all time will come from iconic characters.

At least one iconic character must be in the playset. It can have other characters as long as it centers on the icon. Furthermore, I need to narrow the countless options, or you’ll end up with an entire toy store in your playroom. So, the toy should inspire multiple activities because that helps children to feel more grateful.

Kids quickly bore with toys that don’t offer multiple activities. So, finally, I want Toy Story toys from various popular types. However, the types must also be nostalgic enough to look like the toys in the movies. For example, a figure or plush would resemble Woody from the films. So, in summary, the toy should:

Come from the original characters who became icons throughout the movies
Inspire two or more activities
Fit into a nostalgic toy type, like figures, plushes, RC models, and action figures

Tips for Parents of Young Toy Story Fans

Do you consider your child an Andy? If so, here are some tips to help them look after their toys as Andy (and Bonnie) cherished Woody, Jessy, and the others. Children first learn to look after their much-loved toys by storing them correctly after playtime. Children can learn to pack toys away from 12 months.

I’ll make this fun because of the Toy Story theme. Suppose your young fan loves Toy Story as much as my son does. In that case, buying them a Toy Story-Themed Toy Storage Bin will motivate them to pack the toys away. Here are some exciting options today’s kids will know well:

Now that storage is sorted, you must also teach young Toy Story fans to keep their toys clean. Plastic, PVC, and immovable toys are easy to clean weekly in a warm bathtub. Meanwhile, the Toy Story Woody Roundup Walking, Talking Figure won’t do well in water.

Instead, show kids how to dust the figure’s face and hands using a makeup brush. Then, they can gently dabble the plush body with a slightly damp cloth. Don’t add chemicals to the fabric. And voila! You teach young fans responsibility. Andy would be so proud of children who cherish their nostalgic toy collection.

The Ultimate Toy Story Toys for Disney Fans

The ultimate Toy Story toys look like their characters in the movies, whether they’re plush or action figures. However, it’s a bonus if they also sound like the movie characters. So, let’s see how each ultimate Toy Story toy matches up to the on-screen icon, which is excellent news for children and mature collectors.

Disney Toy Story Interactive Bullseye Figure

Bullseye is my daughter’s favorite Toy Story character because he makes her think of a pony born into a puppy’s personality. The little guy is a joy on-screen; he can brighten any child’s day with his neighs and other sound effects. In addition, he looks like a plush toy but is an articulated figure with soft touches.

Young toddlers might struggle to manage such a massive figure

Disney Toy Story Interactive Buzz Lightyear Figure

Buzz Lightyear has become quite the icon, even owning movies of his own. The most recent one on Disney Plush undoubtedly got some conversations going, even being banned from some countries for forward-thinking animation. However, the figure is identical to the movie’s toy sounds and design.

Disney Toy Story Interactive Jessie Figure

Jessie quickly became an icon, but she only started in the second movie. Her giggle and snorting are pretty funny, and she’s one of my favorite characters. I love how she yells, Hee Haw!

Jessie isn’t a first-movie icon, but she earned her place

Disney Toy Story Interactive Rex Figure

Rex, Slinky Dog, and Bullseye are the most adorable toys in the movies. Meanwhile, Rex is a dinosaur toy you’d expect would be much larger than the other toys. However, he isn’t.

Disney Toy Story Mr. Potato Head Figure

Mr. Potato Head and his wife are funny toys in the films, and kids enjoy them. This toy represents him perfectly because children can take him apart and piece him back together. In addition, children gain simple skills by playing with this toy, including spatial reasoning, fine motor, and self-reliance.

Disney Toy Story Rex Plush

Rex remains a cutie-pie and would appeal to children who love dinosaurs, not just Toy Story. He has gorgeously bright colors for a plush toy and wears the expected goofy smile. The plush Rex’s size is also fantastic for kids who want cuddly friends to take along to playdates or bedtime buddies.

The size is ideal for plushies, but it doesn’t work well for a collector

Disney Toy Story Slinky Dog Talking Action Figure

Slinky Dog is a famed toy for kids in the movies. In addition, he has interactive abilities with this versatile toy. He can walk and talk, working well for younger kids who need pull-along toys. Young toddlers gain motor and cause-and-effect skills from pull-along toys. Finally, the toy doubles as a stress tool or fidget toy.

Disney Toy Story Woody & Bullseye Figure Pack

You can’t begin collecting the best Toy Story toys of all time without the dynamic duo that makes everything unique about the movies. Woody and Bullseye are the two icons who started everything. In addition, they’re more collectible together because children can play with a rider and horse.

Disney Toy Story Woody & Buzz Lightyear Figure Pack

Buzz Lightyear and Woody are the second most important team in the movies. There were some tough times between these two icons, but they always found ways to overcome their differences. In the end, the two became best buddies, and these talking figures undoubtedly represent the initial icons nicely.

Toy Story Toy-Cons

Woody’s body is softer like a plush, which makes him fragile outside the packaging

Disney Toy Story Woody, Jessie, & Buzz Figure Pack

I found the jackpot starter toy for this theme when I saw Woody, Jessie, and Buzz as a combo deal at Walmart. The toys are the same as the last duo, except Jessie joins the team if you like her yodeling voice. Indeed, she has conversational abilities and shares Woody’s plush body with a figure’s head.

Disney Toy Story Woody & Turbo Buggy Remote-Controlled Car

FAQs

Question: Where Can I Find Disney Toy Story Costumes?

Answer: The official Disney online store sells costumes for the iconic Toy Story characters. You’ll find a Toy Story Jessie Dress-Up Costume and a Toy Story Woody Dress-Up Costume. However, one unique outfit is for special, disabled children. The Toy Story Adaptive Buzz Dress-Up Costume includes a cover for wheelchairs.

Question: What’s the Name of the Fork in Toy Story 4?

Answer: Disney didn’t spend too much time picking Forkie’s name. Ironically, the character became an essential part of tear-jerking in the fourth movie. Fortunately, there’s merch for this little guy. You can buy the Toy Story Forkie Plush or the Toy Story Woody & Forky Figure Pack. Both options are excellent for fans.

Question: What Musical Toys Come From Disney Toy Story?

Answer: Musical toys might not be nostalgic like figures and plushies, but they’re incredible for children in early childhood development. Believe it or not, most Toy Story figures are interactive and talkative, including the Toy Story Rex Action Figure. However, the Toy Story Woody Carousel is a musical toy for kids or collectors.
