Relive the excitement of space exploration, conflict and teamwork in Disney and Pixar's Lightyear, with these authentically detailed vehicles and figures representing key elements from the Buzz Lightyear origin story. I think the biggest thing is to forget the trailer. Go in with an open-mind and make of it what you will. The kids in the theatre seemed to have loved.

A Totally Tomorrowland Christmas • Buzz's Star Command • Buzz Lightyear's Space Ranger Spin • Little Green Men Store Command Helmed by Angus MacLane ( Finding Dory), Lightyear is a whimsical, overstuffed sci-fi adventure. It recalls all the classic movies you’d expect — 2001: A Space Odyssey, Star Wars, and Star Trek — but it possesses none of the originality, wit, or wellspring of emotion you’d expect from a Pixar movie. One would hesitate to call this spinoff terrible. Instead, the film finds an unsettling comfort in being aggressively average. Buzz Lightyear, on the other hand, would experience 8.9 g's. That’s huge, but it's survivable. Some fighter pilots can have maneuvers that pull up to 9 or 10 g's. (Plus, it's Buzz Lightyear, so he's probably tougher than your average fighter pilot.)

Go to infinity and beyond with this wonderful Lego recreation of Buzz Lightyear's ship.

Hawthorne is a compelling character, and a refreshing example of proper representation. Walt Disney Studios The newest Pixar offering isn’t a conventional prequel. In 1995, Toy Story’s Andy watched a movie that captured his imagination and prompted him to buy a Buzz Lightyear action figure. Lightyear is the movie he watched. It’s also the movie Disney hopes your kids will see, ultimately making them buy their own Buzz Lightyear toys.

Fans will want to collect the whole fleet of Lightyear Hyperspeed Series vehicles and pilots for a dramatic display. Each vehicle and figure combination sold separately, subject to availability. The nostalgia was there for ten minutes and then it went away as the story trails away into something that just didn't sit right. While we never got firm info about Buzz's origins in the "Toy Story" films. This isn't what I expected for his story. I expected this to be an emotional journey, but there were maybe three moments where a tear was shed. The rest was just "empty" space.
