History WesternAnimation / ToyStoryThatTimeForgot

* CallBack: In ''WesternAnimation/ToyStory3'', Woody mentioned "Those guys from the Christmas decorations" living up in the attic. While this is Bonnie's house rather than Andy's, Angel Kitty is a call to that - sweet, adorable and wise, who knows that even though she only gets a few weeks a year, she can make the very most of it rather than being upset and bitter.

* GettingCrapPastTheRadar: Bonnie and Mason's playdate is wrapping up, and we see Reptillus and Trixie lying the floor, side-by-side.

* {{Contortionist}}: Being made of cloth and stuffing, Woody uses his flexibility to hold his own for a while in the gladiator games, dodging most of Reptillus' attacks.

* ChristmasSpecial: Though the holiday is pretty downplayed. The Battlesaurs were Christmas gifts. Unfortunately, so was the Optimum X.

** When the Goliathon sucks Woody's arm in, it's very reminiscent of [[ReturnOfTheJedi the Rancor eating the Gamorrean guard]].

!!Contains examples of:

A {{Pixar}}-produced half-hour ChristmasSpecial that debuted in December 2014, following ''WesternAnimation/ToyStoryOfTerror''. Directed by Steve Purcell.

** The famous [[WesternAnimation/PixarShorts Luxo Jr.]] ball can be seen on the Battlesaurs' packaging, most noticeably when [[spoiler:Reptillius finds his packaging and realizes he is a toy.]]

* AbsenteeActor: Ms. Potato Head, Hamm, and Slinky Dog are absent in this special, as was the case with ''Toy Story of Terror!''. In addition, Barbie and Ken are also excluded for the same reason they were excluded from ''Terror!'': Creator/{{Sony}} Pictures had the film rights to the ''Franchise/{{Barbie}}'' franchise, and thus Disney was unable to use the two characters.

* {{Defictionalization}}: Disney commissioned Creator/StudioTrigger to create [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aX0S03s8TsU an intro]] to a possible ''Battlesaurs'' series, adding animé to the mammoth list of inspirations of the toyline mentioned below. [[AndTheFandomRejoiced A lot of people want a full-on series to be created now.]]

* ChristmasSpecial: Though the holiday is pretty downplayed. The Battlesaurs were Christmas gifts.

* DissonantSerenity: The most Angel Kitty ever gets to being scared or worried is a few 'almost unnoticeable' surprise looks.

--> '''Reptillus: ''[breathless]''''' That was...glorious.

--> '''Reptillus:''' Farewell, Trixie of the Bonn-Yee tribe. My heart will burn bright, [[IWillWaitForYou until the moment of your return]]...Tuesday, around 3:30.

* WellIntentionedExtremist: The Cleric [[spoiler:genuinely believes that it is the best thing for his people that they remain in the dark about their true nature, as he thinks, since Mason is not interested in playing with them, they would experience an identity crisis. He snaps out of it by the story's end ]].

* EnsembleDarkhorse: Angel Kitty and her adorability became rapidly incredibly popular with fans crying out for a plush toy of her. Which they got.
--> '''Angel Kitty:''' "The joy that you give others is the joy that comes back to you."

Shortly after Christmas, Trixie is becoming tired of being cast as everything but a dinosaur during playtime with Bonnie. When she, Woody, Buzz, Rex and a Christmas ornament named Kitty Angel are taken by Bonnie to a playdate with a boy named Mason, they end up being left to explore while the kids are distracted by a new video game console. While traveling through Mason's room, they stumble upon a complete set of 80s-90s-esque dinosaur warriors called Battlesaurs. Trixie and Rex are quickly accepted by the powerful Reptillus Maximus, but soon find that much like a more dangerous Buzz, the entire set is unaware of their toyhood and the pterosaurian Cleric leading the Battlesaurs has been taking advantage of this ignorance...

* WellIntentionedExtremist: The Cleric [[spoiler:genuinely believes that it is the best thing for his people that they remain in the dark about their true nature, as he thinks, since Mason is not interested in playing with them, they would experience an IdentityCrisis. He snaps out of it by the story's end ]].

* IdentityCrisis: Much like Buzz in the first movie, the Battlesaurs have no idea they are toys. Likewise, Trixie complains that she is never a dinosaur in Bonnie's games, which is part of the reason she is happy to be accepted by the Battlesaurs.

** ArtificialLimbs: The Cleric has a mechanical arm. Rex is given some mechanical arm extensions to make him stronger [[spoiler:but it turns out to be part of something called "the supplicator" and allows the Cleric to control him.]] Later, the arms from the deactivated [[spoiler:supplicator]] are given to the armless sock monkey. Ray-Gon even appears to have a metal ''tail''!

** BrokenAce: Briefly. Upon seeing the plastic casing he came packaged in, you can see his emotions cycle through fear, confusion, and anger.

* GadgeteerGenius: Raigon, the short, stubby ankylosaur who mans the Battlesaur's armory
