TOY STORY


ANDY
Able to create elaborate gold-mining towns with boxes and crayons,Andy can dream
up any prop for a good vs.evil scenario that stars all of his toys.With Andy in charge,
good always triumphs


WOODY
Woody's a traditional kind of toy,with his pull-string voice box and cowboy datailling.
He has long enjoyed a place of honor as the favorite among six-year-old Andy's toys-until
Buzz Lightyear crash lands and shakes up his world.

BUZZ LIGHTYEAR
This space ranger action figure has it all: a laser beam, karate-chop action,pop-out wings
and a belief that he's on a secret mission for star Command.Much to Woody's chagrin,
Buzz monopolizes Andy's attention and becomes an instant favorite with his toymates.
HAMM
The piggy bank in the window knows everythings.Or at least that's what Hamm would have
everyone believe when he's sticking his snout into the day's affairs.
MR. POTATO HEADMr. Potato Head has a chip on his shoulder, but you would too if your face kept falling off.
His cynical take on life makes him the toy to question Woody's authority.
BO PEEP
When this pretty porcelain lamp base isn't busy herding her flock of sheep, she has her
hands full being the voice of reason for her cowboy, Sheriff Woody, and the rest of the toy gang.

SLINKY DOG
A dog is a man's best friend, and the saying rings true for those of the vinyl variety too.
Slinky is Woody's trusted friend and partner in playing checkers-and the one who "stretches"
the most in the friendship.
REX
Rex is a neurotic and insecure 12-inch plastic dinosaur with a small-roar complex and limited
upper-arm movement.With his tender heart and weak spine,this Tyrannosaurus is one of the most
lovable toys of the bunch.
SID
Every neighborhood has a bully, and Sid's it on Andy's block.He's a malicious and overactive kid who
lovers to torture,torment and blow up toys all the name of fun.
MUTANT TOYS
The toys next door to Andy are an odd-looking bunch of hybrids that are the product
of Sid's twisted sense of playtime.Despite their shocking outward appearances,the
creations are truly selfless and gentle at the core, helping each other to survive
and hopefully outgrow Sid.
