Ohh right, thanks for the info.
I think another wave would be likely if they’re making a profit from the franchise, however I’m not sure they are. They only really target us collectors, which there are a few of, and not younger children, so sales wouldn’t exactly be that high.
On the other hand, Zurg was selling very well because he’s a reasonable price for the toy that he is, so kids would be more likely to get him.
My feeling is that if a new wave is announced, they will likely go with TS3 or newer characters simply because the characters are more fresh in kids minds. I could see Zurg being made still though, since the disney store one is doing so well and because zurg is more represented than say stinky pete.
Whatever they do NEW TOYS

It would be awesome if Thinkway made a TSC Stinky Pete. I think it’s a pretty cool character, and he is the only one who is missing from the ‘‘Roundup Gang’’. It kind of sucks.
I highly doubt they will create him. But there’s always hope
I agree. I was hopeful and excited years ago that he would be part of the collection. I’ve lost hope now…
I just bought the Signature Collection Buzz Lightyear by Thinkway. Picked him up at Toys R Us. They didn’t have Woody, so I had to buy him online. He has not arrived in the mail yet.
The paint on Buzz looks great and it works fine.

And here’s pictures of my old Woody and Jessie made by Mattel.
Speaking of Jessie from Mattel, I found black spots on the back of her ear that wasn’t there before! and some on her hands! I’m worried that it might be mould D:
Hey guys
Here is a couple of pics of my wee daughters collection … My collection is still boxed up at the moment … Will unbox them soon and take pictures
She has a lot of thinkway in her collection … Not a bad collection for a 4 year old …
Alex
Not too shabby. Is her favorite Buzz? I see many of them. ^ ^
Lol yes she loves buzz . She has another 3 buzz’ s in her bedroom . And numerrous other characters … She is almost 4 and has great fun with them
We play with them everyday … I get an excuse to play with toys LOL it’s great
Alex
These are perfect toys. They are all consistent in size and is up to scale, thanks!
My Signature Collection Woody has finally arrived. He looks way better than the Mattel Woody
Here’s a picture of Woody and Buzz:
Does anyone know when they discontinued the Mr. Potato Head or the Hamm Bank?
Hamm bank I believe was discontinued in 2011.
Anyone know where I can get a spare TSC Potato Head Body?
Geez,the cheapo Kmart ones are looking pretty nice right now. The playtime ones are like 2.00 cheaper
at TRU. any idea how great either of them are?
hey, ive got a question: does the Disney store bullseye look good with the toy story collection woody?
i justed wanted to know before i blew thirty bucks on him>
I believe the rumors are true. thinkway WILL be releasing UB buzz for holiday 2013!!!

So, I got a new toy, but its not toy story related. Its a DSLR, a Canon T3i. Feels like Ive been saving up for this for 2 years, now its finally in my hands.
I’m looking to get a replacement part from Thinkway and they had me send pics of it. Its kinda amazing what a proper camera along with lighting can do to make these toys look better. This was one of the shots I sent them.
I asked them if they planned to add any more characters to the line, she said no. Worth s shot.
She said she would email back about the cost for the part, so I guess they’re not giving out stuff for free anymore… anyone else happen to know how much it will cost? Am I paying for the part, just the shipping, or both? I’ll probably get a response before someone here sees this, but I figured I’d try.
Anyway, I’ll post more pics sometime. I know you’ve all seen my collection plenty, but you guys seemed to like the pics I take, and with the new camera it will look even better. I’ll probably post a video tour as well. Maybe a review of the troikas or something since everyone has done all the official toys. I’m not sure about that though, I hate talking on camera. ha
I’ll pop in some music or something and just show the footage at the very least.
Edit: here’s some footage. Im still experimenting with different settings to figure out what will work best, so its not meant to show everything, and parts of it are too dark because I wanted to avoid using the higher iso’s that bring in noise/grain.

ouch. that buzz looks pretty damaged. all of the collection stuff has some sort of defect.my woody’s buttons are pretty off centered on his chest.
