* LightIsGood: She has a pretty vibrant appearance, and despite her previous questionable actions, she's not entirely bad; just desparate for love.

* BeautyEqualsGoodness: What truly sets her apart from previous fellow villains Stinky Pete and Lots-o'-Huggin' Bear, because despite her antagonistic actions, she ''wasn't'' really as intrinsically malevolent as they were.

* FriendOrIdolDecision: A particuliar example. After her original plan of becoming Harmony's toy failed, Gabby was then given another chance to finally have a human owner of her own, and Woody proposed to her that it would be Bonnie, to which she later accepted it. However, just as she, him, and the other toys were about to head to the Andersons' RV, she then notices a sad lost girl. Feeling with much empathy, she decided to willingly become that same lost girl's toy instead of Bonnie's, and it finally succeeded. In short, this counts as an example for such trope because she ''set aside'' her own interests for the sake of others' needs.

* FieryRedhead: A subtler example (as opposed to any other character like Jessie). Due to her passionate desperation of becoming an owned toy, she tends to behave like this, albeit quietly.

* MeaningfulEcho: In an attempt to make Woody give his voice box to her for her initial goal of being with Harmony, she persuades to him by stating that being there for any child is the "most noble thing" a toy can do. Later, after her initial goal failed, she was then given another chance to find another human child owner for her (to which Woody even lets her keep his voice box inside of her). Initially, it was going to be Bonnie (the current owner of Andy's toys), but when she saw a sad lost girl from afar, she then decides to be owned by that same lost girl instead. In that sense, her overall goal of finding a child owner succeeded not out of her personal expectations (like what she previously would've hoped for with Harmony), but because ''she was there'' for them and their needs. Even Woody brought up those same exact words of hers as she's about to be officially adopted by that initially lost girl.

* NiceMeanAndInbetween: For the film series' primary toy villains, she's ''definitely'' the "nice" (especially because she [[GoodAllAlong wasn't even that inherently bad]] to begin with) to [[spoiler:Lots-o'-Huggin' Bear's "mean" and Stinky Pete's "in-between"]].

* TheSmurfettePrinciple: She has acted as the Bensons' leader, at least up until her departure.

* {{Irony}}: This initially antagonistic toy has managed to openly display more genuine humanity than Sid Philips and Al [=McWhiggin=] did (since both of these male characters are ''literally'' human beings themselves).

* EasilyForgiven: Woody is surprisingly quick to forgive Gabby for stealing his pull string and even lets her keep it. Justified in that he fully understands that her bad actions were driven out of a desperate need for love. The same thing can be said with (some of) hiscompamions, including both Forky and later her ex-rival Bo Peep, after Harmony rejected Gabby herself from toy ownership.

*** Gabby Gabby was left unowned by any human being for quite a long time, possibly due to her defective voice box.[[/labelnote]]

** For Lotso, they were both leaders of their respective groups of toys, but Lotso himself was '''a lot''' more ruthless to his minions (including both Ken and Big Baby), while Gabby Gabby treated her own henchmen much more respectfully and amiably. Additionally, their respective ideologies about toy ownership differ, as well: Lotso started to believe that humans in general don't really love the toys they own. Gabby Gabby, on the other hand, is aware that every human has at least some form of affection for every toy they officially own.

* AntiHero: Somewhat becomes this after her full HeelFaceTurn, where her [[DoesThisRemindYouOfAnything most noble act]] in the movie was being there for a tragically lost girl for comfort.

* PrimaryColorChampion: She possess a yellow dress, red hair and blue eyes.

* {{Irony}}: Although initially antagonistic, she was also able to openly display more genuine humanity than Sid Philips and Al [=McWhiggin=] did (since both of these male characters are ''literally'' human beings themselves).

** For Stinky Pete, they are both left-out toys, but Stinky Pete himself is ''highly'' petty about not being able to find an owner himself, and as a result, he became very nihilistic, especially towards toy ownership, something that he [[{{Irony}} ironically]] [[LaserGuidedKarma got]] near the end of the climax of ''Toy Story 2''. Gabby Gabby, on the other hand, is able to accept the fact that not every human was able to own her (such as Harmony), although she was given another chance to fulfill that goal with the help of Woody and his companions, and it finally did thanks to a tragically lost girl.

* MirrorCharacter: Judging by his backstory, it seems that Duke Caboom reflects what Buzz Lightyear was in the first ''Toy Story'' movie, as each of them initially thought that they are what they were presented by their brands as toys, as evidenced by the commercials about each of them (Buzz is an astronaut who could "fly"; Duke is a daredevil who could "jump"), but they eventually got over those respective fixed representations of theirs, as well.

** They each have tragic backstories that involve [[DarkAndTroubledPast being left behind from toy ownership]].[[labelnote:*]]

* StepfordSmiler: For someone who smiles throughout the majority of the first half of ''Toy Story 4'', deep down, she's [[TragicVillain really depressed]], especially because she hasn't been officially owned by any human being for quite a long time during that personal stage of hers.
