Thinkway's Toy Story Collection

How come you have two Woodys?

Came home and found my rather gorgeous wife had got me this

Your wife buys you toys.

Jealousy levels rising.

yes but I have to fight off my kids to keep them.

Having spent a little time now checking out Mr P, I’m quite impressed. He looks excellent and feels more robust than I thought he would be. Saying that, I don’t think he should be priced quite so high. £50 or $72 is pretty steep for him but having him stand next to the rest of my collection makes it a little easier to take

yeah i was a little hesitant to buy mine but he is my favorite charcter and my buzz was lookin lonley

Everything looks nice on Jessie except the collar and hairline. I’m especially surprised at the good shape and sculp.

Where did your wife find him?

Also, with lotso, no matter what setting he is on, if you leave him idle long enough he will announce that hes taking a nap as opposed to the other toys which only do that in the live mode

The first one I got had bad paint applications on his belt and badge. Woody is my favorite character so I had to have a perfect one. The second one that came didn’t have as nice a collar and the vest didn’t look as nice either - so I decided to keep both.

It’s really aggravating. I can’t send them back to Thinkway because I doubt they’ll send replacements to New Zealand because retailers don’t stock them here. Also I don’t think ‘the collar and vest’ not sitting right’ would qualify for replacement.

I wish I knew someone who could just go into the store and pick me up one with good quality control. I’ll buy anyone a 3-pack of Aliens or the Bucket of Soldiers if they can pick up the Toy Story toys I need over the next year and send them in groups of 3 or 4 to New Zealand. There would only be a maximum of 12 I’d think if you count Sunnyside. Its probably not worth it for a lot of people but might be for someone who goes to the store/post office a lot and would want to help a fellow collector out :slight_smile: I’d pay for the Toy and shipping with Paypal and with ones like Chunk and Twitch where I don’t think there’d be much QC issues I might just ship to your house and you can forward to me. Please PM me if you can help out. Thanks.

Here are some pictures that the user Hydrova took of Lotso and posted a few weeks ago:

AWESOME
Thanks for posting
I really want him now

What irks me about the Lotso certificate is that the “3” is just tacked on. They didn’t really try to make the TS3 logo, they just tacked the “3” on the side. They did that for the TS2 Blu-Ray menu. Just tacked the “2” on. It annoys me. end of rant

Potato Head is $99.99 on Amazon! It really pisses me off that I’ve waited a while for it to get on Amazon and once it’s on, it’s $50 over priced.

Im fairly certain that you can buy potato head online on targets website. Speaking of spud head, disney store had him on the shelves yesterday along with the other wave 1 figures.

pixarfan9099, is that buster on your sig? thats awesome whered you find it

I’ve just got home from Westfield (A big shopping centre in London) with a Mr Potato Head! WooHoo Sooooo excited after weeks of enviously read this thread I finally have one. He is brilliant! Even with his legs and eyes joined.

Initial thoughts…

The packaging was hard work to free him from took longer than expected and was actually pretty difficult releasing the arms. The wire ties were cut too close to the shift.

His finish is really good.

I love the popping action, so funny! It’s just a shame the audio after doesn’t match the pop. It did first time but second time was saying something random.

Not too keen on the angry face gonna stick with the happy face. Looking forward to getting some seperate eyes from Tyler he will look even better.

The legs… Whilst I’m not a fan of them they don’t actually look that bad and at £50 I’m not about to start undoing him and mucking about with it. I can’t really afford a new one if I mess it up. I’ll just live with them.

I’m not sure if it was because he was on carpet but he fell over a few time when he was dancing. Obviously removing the legs would help this by lowering his centre of gravity but as I said above I’m not modifying the legs.

Overall he is brilliant and looks amazing with the rest of the collection.

Spotted Lotso at TRU today. I really don’t think he’s that great at all, and wish they chose a different character. He is lame.

Hey guys well heres a pic of my collection so far, with TSC Woody, TSC Soldiers, Hamm, Chatter Telephone, and Barbie and Ken. Tell me what you think and who do you think I should get next?
