The 2009 collectors box is not only canonically accurate to the history of how Andy dad would have bought woody but in toy story 2 all of the round up gang had that style of box. The prospector was stuck in his in the film and the others had theirs too
Although it does fit with the style of the rest of the Round Up gang style of boxing, I like the Disney store box more, its much taller and fits the profile of Woody better than the Collection box, not that its bad, but I just like how tall and slim the disney box is
Bruh the 1995 is fat dude normally if you look at the movie he wasn't even fat man well maybe I'm not sure if I'm gonna mod a toy story collection mr potato head and the 1995 woody has a very nice pull string ring because if you saw him in the movie it was that size and that's movie accurate
You forgot to mention the 2009 version could also glow in the dark for real. I had both original and new versions (along with several variants including grey armor, dark colors, and a variant of the 2009 with the anti gravity servo belt) and I was so much happier with the glow in the dark as that was one of the coolest features in the movie for me.
One thing that bothered me about *Thinkaway's Signature Collection* was that they released Woody, Jessie and Bullseye in the _Woody's Roundup packaging,_ but never made a *Stinky Pete* toy to truly complete the set. I would have liked a proper Prospector doll.
Had a 1995 Buzz also, the nostalgia is wild lmao. Mine had a motion alarm feature that you had to set with a button combo. It used to go off by itself sometimes and we were all convinced it was haunted lol
As a kid in 1995, I noticed that A: the toy Buzz was slightly larger than the one in the movie when compared to the other toys that already existed for scale and B: all the features he _didn't_ have (karate chop action and helmet fully retracting came to mind immediately).
The detail that bothers me about the 2009 edition is the way the joints are cut on Buzz. The slots on the joints look weird, and it seems like 95 got those right, even if the range was more limited.
I also have the 1995 woody, it was a gift from a friend that used to own it, he also gave me a utility belt buzz as well Edit: so I’ve been looking through my toys (yes I still have my toys, even some my brother gave me) and I couldn’t find the 1995 woody, but I did find the Zurg toy my brother gave me. It’s broken, but he has his looks from Buzz Lightyear of StarCommand. The only thing that broke off was the chest piece that has the Z on it.
The woody I had as a kid in the 90s didn’t have a wire skeleton and, to memory, had much better proportions, though it definitely had the same fat torso and voice box
Fun fact: At the end of Toy Story 3 when Andy hands Buzz over to Bonnie and she pushes his voice button and he says “To Infinity... AND BEYOND!”... that was sampled from the 1995 Thinkway Buzz figure. Later versions of Buzz figures had much cleaner sounding voice boxes, but on the ‘95 figure it almost sounds like the speaker is straining when he says “...AND BEYOND!” Watch that scene again and make the ‘95 Buzz say that phrase after Bonnie does, it’ll blow your mind.
@@todayigrewup Buzz Lightyear's _"To Infinity and beyond"_ voice that you heard in Toy Story 3, didn't come from the 1995 Thinkway Buzz action figure. It was actually taken from when Buzz said the phrase himself in the original Toy Story movie from 1995, which was when the action figure was made.
In terms of accuracy from the movies and the better looking packaging and models, the 2009 version looks way better and they really did improve on the size, and mobility of the toys. Looking at tge 1995 version, i would have bought it as a kid but now that im older, the 2009 ones are the superior toys even though many will say that the older ones are very valuable for collectors.
What a throw back! I have these 1995 toys in the attic! I loved them!! My Buzz did have a wrist communicator, though, and he also had a 'fly mode' where if you held him at an angle his head would lift up and he would say things like "The wind my hair...Bugs in my teeth, yuck!" Then we had a Woody with a guitar that could play "You've Got A Friend In Me", and also a Woody and Jessie that could talk to each other! P.S. I think your 1995 voice box is broken, which has made it speed up which is why it sounds rushed and high pitched.
The reason why their faces look the way they do was because the designers at Thinkway were given concept renders of each character to base the toy on, which is why 95 Woody has a smile while 09 Woody has an open mouth. No idea why they didn't make the toys with the official toy mode expressions after the first movie, but I guess they considered it tradition after the first.
What disappoints me is that they have YET to release a movie accurate Woody. I've been seeing so many people restoring and/or creating their own movie accurate Woody dolls, and I'm just sitting here thinking "Why does Disney/PIXAR/Thinkway keep changing the facial expressions on Woody?? Why not make his face accurate to the movie: closed smile, eyes fully open, and go above and beyond and add the accurate details like pearl buttons, a properly laced hat, rope detailing on the vest, etc." They definitely improved on Buzz in 2009, significantly more accurate. However, the voice of 1995's Buzz is more accurate (even though both are Tim Allen). What boggles my mind is: Why don't they just take audio clips directly from the movie(s) and use them for the toys' catch phrases??? That way their phrases and sounds are movie accurate! Also...I agree, Buzz's helmet still doesn't do "that..th-th-that WHOOSH thing!", and still doesn't have any karate chop action! Does 2009 still glow in the dark? I know the '95 version does.
That’s why I made my own Woody also because toy companies never made one! Here is my latest custom Woody video here th-cam.com/video/cUA6lkm1Zvs/w-d-xo.html
Even though John Lasseter said that he thinks that the Collection box is more realistic, I think that that current Disney Store box would be more realistic for Woody. It has both components of these, the western theme, and the tall box.
@@ericschannel983i prefer disney store box because at least is tall for to to stand while the signature collection box is too small that woody needs to sit down

My brothers and I had the 1995 versions of Woody. There were a couple of versions of the 90s Woody and I had them both, among other Woody dolls. The first version was poseable, had a smaller ring on the pull-string and he had spurs on his boots. The second version had a larger ring, no spurs and didn't have wire inside to pose. I remember getting Buzz in Christmas of 1997. I also had some other Woody and Buzz action figures when growing up. I loved all of those toys and the movies. I have yet to see the fourth one, but I plan to see it soon.
That’s awesome thanks for sharing your toy story. It’s fun to hear other people’s love for toy story and hear about their toy collections! First wave is what is shown here for 1995 woody and buzz
‘09 laser sound is the sound it would make when he’d use it as a laser pointer. The ‘95 Buzz laser sounds like the way it did in the first film when he “fired” it at Sid’s mutant toys after Woody hid behind him and he told him to “shield his eyes”. Seriously that was the only time in the entire franchise that his laser made that sound. So honestly I don’t mind either.🤷🏾♂️🤷🏾♂️
Any of these would've been great when I was 7. I had Woody and Buzz as toys, but the Woody was plastic so that he could stand up, and the accordingly shorter Buzz was maybe 6 inches tall. The Woody had a "pointing finger draw" mechanism, but I'm not even sure if Buzz had any battery-operated stuff. They were still cool, and well-made to resemble their film versions. Anyway, thanks a bunch for showing the details! I used to wonder if those 1995 versions, that Hanks and Allen hold in one promo interview, were promotional items, limited collector's editions or actually found on shelves. I certainly never saw them in Finland, and it would have been very unusual to have that big and expensive "action figures." I think "Street Sharks" were the most expensive action figures at the time, not counting Action Man, who was more like a Ken doll.
@@dguy0386 Hasbro Woody looks nothing like TSC Woody lol, it looks so ugly whereas TSC Woody looks natural. Also, the hands on Hasbro Woody were pretty good, but the palms were a bit too short.
26:54 I think in my opinion both lasers are alike what the movie had. Because two reasons: 1: When Buzz holding his laser aim at Woody (26:40) when they first met in Andy's bed. And other Buzz with utility belt aim at the real Buzz in second movie. 2: When Slinky and Woody press the laser button, and Buzz using to destory Spider Baby head and tries escape the plastic box when Jessie and Bullseye trapped him. (26:45)
24:20-44 There was only one Buzz Lightyear in Australia I could ever find for sale in mid 1997 in Kmart that had an opening and closing wrist communicater. In fact this one was even better then the movie one because inside it there were buttons you could press and hear more phrases. One example that I only had time to press once was "Buzz Lightyear to Star Command. Come in Star Command." A friend of mine once even said there was a silver one that had an opening and closing wrist communicater but the one I just mentioned with the buttons inside was the only one with an opening and closing wrist communicater I could ever find.
I agree it’s fun to look back and forward in time to see what was done or changed. The retro toys will always be a huge part of history and a permanent staple for many peoples childhoods. We can always appreciate that.
Back in 1995, I was 12 and I remember using my pocket money my parents gave to buy both those Woody and Buzz toys for myself. What I didn't like about the old Woody toy was it wasn't floppy like the one in the movie. Even though both Woody and Buzz were the best ones available at the time, I know they weren't exactly film accurate. How time flies. Now I have the 2009 Toy Story Collection ones that I got when it was first released and boy are they awesome. Though they are still not 100% film accurate, but they are tons better and closer to the one from the film. By the way the laser sound on the 2009 Buzz was heard in the first movie a couple of times, namely on the bed when Woody first greeted Buzz and then later on at Sid's house. The sound is more like a targeting or setting sound I believe. The 2009 Buzz should've included the 1995 laser sound in it as well to reflect how the toy Buzz laser feature was in the film.
Oh yeah I'm gonna have to go with the 1995 Woody & Buzz, I've always been an absolute huge fan of the vintage Toy Story merchandise, although I've never been too impressed with the new stuff. What do you think?
Yeah the new stuff was good but obviously I want a movie accurate prop.. no one has made one I was ever really happy with, that’s why I made my own! Nothing beats childhood nostalgia that’s priceless so I understand your love for 1995 and vintage Toy Story.
2009 Buzz’s laser sounds more like when the laser is scanning the area and not really when he is going to use it to “stun” or “kill”. Maybe if they had used the original laser sound from the movie in the 2009 model and then have it do the scanning sound of the laser if you hold it down, it could have worked better?
Man I haven’t seen that toy in at least 18 years- All the memories are faint pictures I remember the “laser” the most just on how often I would feel it with my fingers, and the single finger moving like a fidget toy
My current woody is the “lots o laughs” woody which has the same pullstring feature, but also has a feature where if you do something to the gut area, woody laughs. I recommend having him on the play setting as you get all phrases and randomized compared to 5 on try me
What I mean by all phrases and randomized, is that there’s more phrases you hear on play, compared to the five you hear on try me Edit: on try me, the five phrases repeat after the fifth one, no randomness meaning you’ll know which one is next
I just realised I own 2009 Glow-in-the-dark Buzz, Jessie and Woody! Woody’s got some crayon markings on him, Buzz has them to a lesser degree, but his battery comportment is corroded and the back of his wing compartment is missing, and Jessie.. worst crayon marks.
Just subscribed, I watched toy story 2 back in the day on VHS. Now I got all the films on blu-ray. Can't wait to get lightyear on 4k as well. Great video! To infinity and beyond Lasseter: we can do better 💀
I remember having one of the 2009 Woody but it came in a box like the 1995 one. Also the hat was more similar to the 1995 hat, it didn't have the actual thread around the brim
I personally love the fact how they didn’t add the wiring on the legs on the 09 woody. Because it gives it that authentic og woody vibes like the movie and how you have it on a stand. Just legit. I love the way they made the 09 woody. But for some reason when I was a kid. Around 99. I felt like I had the 09 woody type of style.
I’m reviewing a wave 1 model of 1995 Woody in this video which is pose-able with wires it’s more rare! Later versions of 1995 Woody got rid of the wires and the spurs for whatever reason maybe for safety reasons or to save cost etc. so many had that 1995 Woody without wires!
You know how weird it’s going to be when Disney makes the movie of the actor that plays buzz in the movie while making a toy of the movie buzz that’s playing the movie buzz in the movie.
Watch how I take off the collection head in this video th-cam.com/video/pf-cqttP6xU/w-d-xo.html and then watch how I take out and swap the voice box in this video here th-cam.com/video/lszRgWZN_B0/w-d-xo.html
What nostalgic memories, I still keep my Buzz lightyear 2009 toy story collection. And it's still functioning. My father bought a buzz in 2010 I was like 8 years old that time.
I have the Toy Story Collection Woody and Buzz Lightyear. I got both in 2010. Even though these are almost 13 years old they still hold up and will always be classics to me. I do wish Woody had a closed mouth and a smaller pull string ring but overall they’re pretty great. I know some people are really against the idea of a Toy Story 5 but since Toys R Us is back in America within all Macy’s department stores, hopefully they’ll bring back the Toy Story collection series as Target did with Toy Story 4. If this is the case I’m definitely getting another Woody and Buzz Lightyear to keep in the box because those are extremely expensive on eBay now.
Great review! Love the ‘95 wave and bought a new, original Buzz today for nostalgia. Curious what your thoughts are on the ‘09 CS Buzz Lightyears going for $300+ now on eBay and if you think we’ll get a similar $50-60 MSRP movie-accurate wave of Toy Story figures again soon? -potentially promo merchandise for “Lightyear” (2022)?
You forgot that in 2019 for the release of Toy Story 4 signature collection Buzz and Woody and Jessie came back to target with an MSRP of $89.99 the days of $50-60 got left behind in 2011… outside the movie promotion windows when the movies are out, stores no longer carry signature collection. That is why signature collection toys are so high now on eBay. Mattel has picked up the license for the new Lightyear movie but they are cheaper quality toys.. and cost about $50. Sadly I hear thinkway toys no longer has the Toy Story license but that could change if they make a Toy Story 5, you never know!
4:15 Unfortunately I don't think they will ever have a wired Woody doll ever again. the reason they stopped doing the wire thing was because of a safety reasons because if the toy is played with enough and gets ripped then those metal wires will stick out and cut someone
1995 laser sound is more movie accurate. ThinkWay Toys definitely did not do better on the 2009 version in that regard. What kinda ticks me off if this is the case, is that I’m sure Disney would have given Think Way Toys access to the sound files from the first Toy Story for Buzz’s laser for the 2009 version if Think Way Toys had bothered to ask-that’s assuming they didn’t ask.
I hope the toy story 5 woody’s will look movie accurate but I doubt that I really hope they don’t give us printed on ones like they did in toy story four🤞🏽
I don’t know which ones I had as a kid, my Woody was like a ragdoll, my Buzz had the opening communicator, and both had Andy on the bottom. Maybe toy story 2?
Back in the days of 2013 , thinkway toys made this woody doll that looks like the toy story collection doll but you can bend the arm and legs but unfortunately, there was no pull string 😖😖😖😖😩😩😩😩
I’m truly proud to be one of many who own the original 90s Woody and Buzz toys to this day. Let me first remember where I stored them then I’ll be extremely proud.😅
a year ago i got a 1995 buzz for 25 cents at an estate sale. It was in near perfect condition, the only issues were the stickers were a little damaged, the plastic was a bit yellowed, and the front of the helmet was missing.
“We can do better.” Me: MAN WTF? YOU SAY YOU CAN DO MORE STUFF THAN YOU USED TO? I’m trying to go to Walmart trying to find an actual good woody doll. But noooo-I just see plush woodies with plastic heads.
Somehow as a kid I had a 1995 woody, even though I was born in the 2000’s I think the Disney store my mom got my woody from had extras, or they re-released them.
I bought the Toy Story Signature collection Buzz back in 2017 for $89.99 -- I remember working at Target when that toy dropped and I wanted one so bad, but $59.99 just seemed too expensive for me to get one. I had always been a fan of Buzz since Toy Story 1 and been a fan of the movies, I still hope that one day we can get an actual 100% movie replica, but until then, the signature collection is the closet we come to.
18:27 I think the signature had the movie accurate green color. I think, I'm not sure. He looks like he does. I always look at my signature collection buzz with awful condition, and think it's the movie color. And I don't know why they went back with that. It doesn't make sense at all.
I can understand the 1995 Woody for not having a movie accurate box because we didn't know about Roundup then, but seems weird Buzz didn't have a similar box to the movie
Although I was born in 2004. I still somehow had the 1995 Buzz and Woody. I’m not sure where I got them from, I was the only child at the time and had no older cousins that could’ve handed them down to me. Except my Woody didn’t have the possible wires in the legs in arms, but I remember it looking exactly like that.
@@todayigrewup Yeah. I wish I still had them but I have absolutely no idea where they went. The last thing I even remember seeing of them was Woodys hat. But I don’t even know what happened to that.
The voice boxes in old toys get really fast and high pitched over time, much like a squirrel, but I just think that you should fix the old ones voicebox and then compare them 👍

Does your 1995 Buzz not work?

You really describe the toy story collection woody perfect 🙂🙂😁
Uh I have a theory: Andy doesn’t have a dad, and woody probably would have been passed down by either his mom or grandparent

The 1995 version glows too, I own it.

Hmm definitely something to think about
I’ve actually had both 1995 Woody and Buzz. My Woody was like a ragdoll, not Poseable.

@@StelBoy2008 in comparison to 1995 woody, Hasbro woody is closer in size and shape to the 2009 woody, that's why i said he looked like him
@@dguy0386 Oh okay. & Hasbro Woody’s hands weren’t as good as 1995, but still better than 2009.
26:54 I think in my opinion both lasers are alike what the movie had.
Because two reasons:
1: When Buzz holding his laser aim at Woody (26:40) when they first met in Andy's bed. And other Buzz with utility belt aim at the real Buzz in second movie.
2: When Slinky and Woody press the laser button, and Buzz using to destory Spider Baby head and tries escape the plastic box when Jessie and Bullseye trapped him. (26:45)
Nice I like this idea you are right! They are both accurate for different reasons!
24:20-44 There was only one Buzz Lightyear in Australia I could ever find for sale in mid 1997 in Kmart that had an opening and closing wrist communicater. In fact this one was even better then the movie one because inside it there were buttons you could press and hear more phrases. One example that I only had time to press once was "Buzz Lightyear to Star Command. Come in Star Command." A friend of mine once even said there was a silver one that had an opening and closing wrist communicater but the one I just mentioned with the buttons inside was the only one with an opening and closing wrist communicater I could ever find.
I really love the look of the 1995 Woody, but all of them are amazing in their own ways
I agree it’s fun to look back and forward in time to see what was done or changed. The retro toys will always be a huge part of history and a permanent staple for many peoples childhoods. We can always appreciate that.
Back in 1995, I was 12 and I remember using my pocket money my parents gave to buy both those Woody and Buzz toys for myself. What I didn't like about the old Woody toy was it wasn't floppy like the one in the movie. Even though both Woody and Buzz were the best ones available at the time, I know they weren't exactly film accurate. How time flies. Now I have the 2009 Toy Story Collection ones that I got when it was first released and boy are they awesome. Though they are still not 100% film accurate, but they are tons better and closer to the one from the film.
By the way the laser sound on the 2009 Buzz was heard in the first movie a couple of times, namely on the bed when Woody first greeted Buzz and then later on at Sid's house. The sound is more like a targeting or setting sound I believe. The 2009 Buzz should've included the 1995 laser sound in it as well to reflect how the toy Buzz laser feature was in the film.
Very cool thanks for sharing your “toy story” with us. Love to hear how these toys have represented us in both childhood and now adulthood. 🤠
I have the 2009 Woody and I love him
Oh yeah I'm gonna have to go with the 1995 Woody & Buzz, I've always been an absolute huge fan of the vintage Toy Story merchandise, although I've never been too impressed with the new stuff. What do you think?
Yeah the new stuff was good but obviously I want a movie accurate prop.. no one has made one I was ever really happy with, that’s why I made my own! Nothing beats childhood nostalgia that’s priceless so I understand your love for 1995 and vintage Toy Story.
2009 Buzz’s laser sounds more like when the laser is scanning the area and not really when he is going to use it to “stun” or “kill”. Maybe if they had used the original laser sound from the movie in the 2009 model and then have it do the scanning sound of the laser if you hold it down, it could have worked better?
Yeah good point. The sound should of been taken from the movie.
It’s super nostalgic seeing these original toys again
glad you enjoyed it. happy to provide the nostalgia feels.
Man I haven’t seen that toy in at least 18 years-
All the memories are faint pictures I remember the “laser” the most just on how often I would feel it with my fingers, and the single finger moving like a fidget toy
Childhood nostalgia goodness
Finely iv bin waiting for you to make this video for a long time
Thanks for watching partner I appreciate you 🤠
I still have the one from 1995! It was my favorite. I even wrote Andy on the boot lol
So cool 😎
I put my name on my sister’s Woody when she handed him down
My current woody is the “lots o laughs” woody which has the same pullstring feature, but also has a feature where if you do something to the gut area, woody laughs. I recommend having him on the play setting as you get all phrases and randomized compared to 5 on try me
Oh wow that’s a cool one too I know it also 🤠
Same I have one too
What I mean by all phrases and randomized, is that there’s more phrases you hear on play, compared to the five you hear on try me
Edit: on try me, the five phrases repeat after the fifth one, no randomness meaning you’ll know which one is next
truly want to see how they both have changed over the years what is someone to change thanks for making this entertaining
You’re welcome thanks for watching
I just realised I own 2009 Glow-in-the-dark Buzz, Jessie and Woody! Woody’s got some crayon markings on him, Buzz has them to a lesser degree, but his battery comportment is corroded and the back of his wing compartment is missing, and Jessie.. worst crayon marks.
Wow hope you can clean them well if not it’s still cool to keep around for your collection
@@todayigrewup I have tried, but nothings worked, so I’ve accepted that it’s there.
Just subscribed, I watched toy story 2 back in the day on VHS. Now I got all the films on blu-ray. Can't wait to get lightyear on 4k as well. Great video! To infinity and beyond
Lasseter: we can do better 💀
That’s awesome thanks for watching
me and my little brother watch toy story 1 and 2 on VHS to this day
The ultimate toy story collection flex 😂
I am just going for childhood memories and nostalgia and Toy Story is my passion as you can tell lol
@@todayigrewup yeah that’s awesome man
I remember having one of the 2009 Woody but it came in a box like the 1995 one. Also the hat was more similar to the 1995 hat, it didn't have the actual thread around the brim
Interesting maybe it was a playtime Woody
I had that exact same one but he doesn’t have his hat anymore and he has marks everywhere
It's a version for playtime
I personally love the fact how they didn’t add the wiring on the legs on the 09 woody. Because it gives it that authentic og woody vibes like the movie and how you have it on a stand. Just legit. I love the way they made the 09 woody. But for some reason when I was a kid. Around 99. I felt like I had the 09 woody type of style.
I’m reviewing a wave 1 model of 1995 Woody in this video which is pose-able with wires it’s more rare! Later versions of 1995 Woody got rid of the wires and the spurs for whatever reason maybe for safety reasons or to save cost etc. so many had that 1995 Woody without wires!
You know how weird it’s going to be when Disney makes the movie of the actor that plays buzz in the movie while making a toy of the movie buzz that’s playing the movie buzz in the movie.
It will be very interesting to see what they are going to do with that movie and the toy line.
How did you remove the voice box(the collection one) from the Collection Body. I need to know so I can remove the old voice box, and add the new one.
Watch how I take off the collection head in this video th-cam.com/video/pf-cqttP6xU/w-d-xo.html and then watch how I take out and swap the voice box in this video here th-cam.com/video/lszRgWZN_B0/w-d-xo.html
What nostalgic memories, I still keep my Buzz lightyear 2009 toy story collection. And it's still functioning. My father bought a buzz in 2010 I was like 8 years old that time.
That’s awesome you still have one!
I still have my 1995 Woody and 2009 Buzz in my attic. Played with them all the time growing up.
Awesome
I still have my 1995 Woody I still know all his phrases & the order they go in. I adore my doll!
Very cool 😎
everybody gangsta until it moves
😂😂😂
I have the Toy Story Collection Woody and Buzz Lightyear. I got both in 2010. Even though these are almost 13 years old they still hold up and will always be classics to me. I do wish Woody had a closed mouth and a smaller pull string ring but overall they’re pretty great. I know some people are really against the idea of a Toy Story 5 but since Toys R Us is back in America within all Macy’s department stores, hopefully they’ll bring back the Toy Story collection series as Target did with Toy Story 4. If this is the case I’m definitely getting another Woody and Buzz Lightyear to keep in the box because those are extremely expensive on eBay now.
This is a very cool channel. We love the vibe of it and love the Toy Story films .
Thanks so much partner I really appreciate that 🤠
@@todayigrewup No problem amigo, keep up the good work:)
woody 1995 looks more like woody from toy story 1. they did not ''improve'' him he is just more accurate to the later movies.
I guess I can see that view but 1995 Woody is too thick even in Toy Story 1 Woody was pretty small and thin
9:07 “ he’s really fat ‘start to laugh’ “
1995 woody: there’s gonna be a snake in your boot
Hahaha
@@todayigrewup I think it’s funny too because when you said that, that’s the joke I thought of
@@SomethingTrooper *GASP* Are you Kermit the frog?
ReAlLy?!??!
@@RedeNathanEmmanuel yes I am
I got the 2009 one as a kid, his head fell of twice and now him and his head are in the attic
Oh no sorry to hear but maybe you can fix it one day still!
You’re awesome, I love your channel!
Thank you for the support partner 🤠
Great review! Love the ‘95 wave and bought a new, original Buzz today for nostalgia. Curious what your thoughts are on the ‘09 CS Buzz Lightyears going for $300+ now on eBay and if you think we’ll get a similar $50-60 MSRP movie-accurate wave of Toy Story figures again soon? -potentially promo merchandise for “Lightyear” (2022)?
You forgot that in 2019 for the release of Toy Story 4 signature collection Buzz and Woody and Jessie came back to target with an MSRP of $89.99 the days of $50-60 got left behind in 2011… outside the movie promotion windows when the movies are out, stores no longer carry signature collection. That is why signature collection toys are so high now on eBay. Mattel has picked up the license for the new Lightyear movie but they are cheaper quality toys.. and cost about $50. Sadly I hear thinkway toys no longer has the Toy Story license but that could change if they make a Toy Story 5, you never know!
4:15
Unfortunately I don't think they will ever have a wired Woody doll ever again. the reason they stopped doing the wire thing was because of a safety reasons because if the toy is played with enough and gets ripped then those metal wires will stick out and cut someone
Yeah I agree with that
The 2009 voice when he said well pull my string looks like my Disney woody voice box
Whoa that’s cool 🤠
So cool! 1995 buzz lightyear was like 20th century of Toy story signature collection Buzz lightyear to people in 1990's.
Yeah that’s true! A cool part of toy history 🤠
My mom bought the 2009 set. Great toys, probably some of the best I've ever owned.
Yeah they are the best we have even now in 2022 from an official toy company
I also have the 2009 Woody and I’ve had him for 14 years now. Don’t care if I’m nearly 21 or not
I loved the 90's version of Toy story
Very cool partner 🤠
I love that the green parts light in the dark ❤
Yeah me too 🤠
ever thought of putting a small GI joe gun in woodys gun holster? aint no way hes going to be a sheriff with his bare hands.
I did do that for a video here th-cam.com/video/4h_4jMZrWq4/w-d-xo.html 😂
1995 laser sound is more movie accurate. ThinkWay Toys definitely did not do better on the 2009 version in that regard. What kinda ticks me off if this is the case, is that I’m sure Disney would have given Think Way Toys access to the sound files from the first Toy Story for Buzz’s laser for the 2009 version if Think Way Toys had bothered to ask-that’s assuming they didn’t ask.
I’ve heard this before. I hear split opinions on this. Half of the fans love the 2009 edition laser sound and the other half don’t.
I hope the toy story 5 woody’s will look movie accurate but I doubt that I really hope they don’t give us printed on ones like they did in toy story four🤞🏽
Let’s hope for the best
I had a buzz from 1995 with the communicator! My brother and sister got it and handed it down to me
That’s so cool
Buzz Lightyear from movie: Made in Taiwan
Buzz Lightyear from real life: Made in China
Hahaha so true
I feel like the 1995 faces are based off of that one image of Woody and Buzz standing on the bed.
That makes more sense... they look more cartoon like to me over a digital animation but it’s not a bad thing just different!
I still have my original 95 Woody. Played with it a ton as a kid. Still in like new shape and now it’s my sons. He also has my 1999 Buzz.
That’s amazing! Great job!
Great video I had the old ones and now have the new ones but never at the same time
Yeah it was cool to bring 2 completely different eras into a room together to compare side by side
Hi today I grew up my mod idea was making a Mrs nessbit from toy story one it would complete your collection
I will one day
Ok
I don’t know which ones I had as a kid, my Woody was like a ragdoll, my Buzz had the opening communicator, and both had Andy on the bottom. Maybe toy story 2?
Sounds like it
What rabbit hole did I fall down when I was looking at videos I saw a long time ago
I don’t remember this one
Glad you found this now partner 🤠
Back in the days of 2013 , thinkway toys made this woody doll that looks like the toy story collection doll but you can bend the arm and legs but unfortunately, there was no pull string 😖😖😖😖😩😩😩😩
Yeah that doesn’t sound like a good Woody
I think the 1995 Woody doll is better
He is cool too 😎
I’m truly proud to be one of many who own the original 90s Woody and Buzz toys to this day. Let me first remember where I stored them then I’ll be extremely proud.😅
Awesome! Keep them forever!
a year ago i got a 1995 buzz for 25 cents at an estate sale. It was in near perfect condition, the only issues were the stickers were a little damaged, the plastic was a bit yellowed, and the front of the helmet was missing.
Wow that’s still an incredible find and story! Congratulations
1995 hand: "i'm real!"
2009 hand: "kill me please"
Haha
Franchise should’ve ended after 3
I’m not complaining I still loved Toy Story 4 and Lightyear I hope they make a Toy Story 5
I use to have that exact same 1995 woody doll when I was little and I was born in 2000!
Wow that is amazing
WOW the 1995 hands were mind-blowing! :o
Yeah super cool
We need the correct face expression for woody still
Yeah I agree partner 🤠
“We can do better.”
Me: MAN WTF? YOU SAY YOU CAN DO MORE STUFF THAN YOU USED TO? I’m trying to go to Walmart trying to find an actual good woody doll. But noooo-I just see plush woodies with plastic heads.
Yeah it’s pretty bad out there in todays toy market..
lazer sound wise, the 95 one is the kill mode lazer and the 09 is the scanning lazer sound
Yeah I can hear that
This is a awesome vid and so close to 75.k!!!!!
Yes very soon!
I like the newer woody better in almost every way except for the hands.
Yeah true I agree
I very like 1995 toys.
they are definitely a huge part of many people's childhood!
Somehow as a kid I had a 1995 woody, even though I was born in the 2000’s I think the Disney store my mom got my woody from had extras, or they re-released them.
That is cool partner 🤠
The 95 versions are the only 2 things from my childhood I still own
That’s super cool 😎
How did you be a toy story fan
I have been since watching the first movie in 1995 and then in 2009 when “movie accurate” toys came out I started collecting the toys.
Where can we buy the 2009 version?
They aren't in stores anymore, so your best bet is online. (Ebay has some)
I bought the Toy Story Signature collection Buzz back in 2017 for $89.99 -- I remember working at Target when that toy dropped and I wanted one so bad, but $59.99 just seemed too expensive for me to get one. I had always been a fan of Buzz since Toy Story 1 and been a fan of the movies, I still hope that one day we can get an actual 100% movie replica, but until then, the signature collection is the closet we come to.
18:27 I think the signature had the movie accurate green color. I think, I'm not sure. He looks like he does. I always look at my signature collection buzz with awful condition, and think it's the movie color. And I don't know why they went back with that. It doesn't make sense at all.
It’s not green enough in person when compared to the movie maybe it was my bright lighting in this video
I love the originals
Yes they are full of childhood nostalgia
1995 woody and buzz are the best
They are very classic and vintage
I can understand the 1995 Woody for not having a movie accurate box because we didn't know about Roundup then, but seems weird Buzz didn't have a similar box to the movie
Yeah agreed
making this video Italy is entertaining to see how the toys have changed over the years
Glad you enjoyed this one
Did you have a 95 woody in your childhood?
No I did not have any toy story toys as a kid. My first toy story toy was in 2009 toy story collection Woody but I was already an adult
@@todayigrewup Yesterday I got my hands on a 1995 flexible woody doll on ebay only for 30 dollars.
Cool
Thanks for watching partner 😎
@@todayigrewup np
Although I was born in 2004. I still somehow had the 1995 Buzz and Woody. I’m not sure where I got them from, I was the only child at the time and had no older cousins that could’ve handed them down to me. Except my Woody didn’t have the possible wires in the legs in arms, but I remember it looking exactly like that.
That is cool you had them! They are valuable and still worth money now.
@@todayigrewup Yeah. I wish I still had them but I have absolutely no idea where they went. The last thing I even remember seeing of them was Woodys hat. But I don’t even know what happened to that.
i had the first one. one of the most nostalgic toys i have.
Awesome 🤠

The voice boxes in old toys get really fast and high pitched over time, much like a squirrel, but I just think that you should fix the old ones voicebox and then compare them 👍
Thanks for the idea partner 🤠
My original 1995 Buzz didn’t have the red and white striping on the wings but other than that was basically identical.
Wow that’s interesting
