When the first Toy Story movie came out I got my son (barely post-toddler at the time) the do-it-all Buzz Lightyear that was released at that time. It was way WAY better than all the shoddy versions that have been released biannually since then. Thick plastic, tough as a tank. Nonetheless, he eventually played with it so much it gave up the ghost. No version of Buzz since has matched that one, and we gave up trying to replace it as he’s gotten older. NOW with this new movie coming there is an 11-year old (!) clamoring for a decent Buzz toy again. I don’t know if they’ll make one available OR whether we’ll shell out the bucks trying to find an original one… he’s too young to actively collect ‘collector’ toys, and probably too old to ‘play’ with a Buzz… but even if I wasn’t into the new movie (ie soulless) I am going to be carried along on the tsunami of child froth.
I have a soul, but I vastly prefer if you go watch DESPICABLE ME.

Ride the froth!
Not a fan of pixar, or computer animation for the most part.
