History WMG / ToyStory

** And Sid appeared in the WesternAnimation/MonstersInc comic book. The same comic book also shows that Boo has a Jessie doll (though it's obviously not the same doll as Andy's Jessie, and she remains inert throughout).

Think about it. In ''Toy Story'' it indirectly brings Woody and Buzz to Sid's house. In ''Toy Story 3'' we see that it brought Lotso, Big Baby, and Chuckles to Sunnyside. In ''WesternAnimation/ABugsLife'', it is there when Flik meets the "warrior bugs". In ''WesternAnimation/MonstersInc.'', the same trailer where it was in ''WesternAnimation/ABugsLife'' is also where Randall has fate defeat him. However, the most important appearance of the truck would be ''Toy Story 2''. Yes, it allows the toys to catch up to Al and all. But more importantly, it is in that truck where they encounter the 3 aliens who would later save Andy's Toys from certain death.

Alternatively, the aliens have some kind of mystic quality (which they have been wrongly attributing to The Claw), hence why there is nothing special about the Pizza Planet truck post-''Toy Story 2'' ([=TS3=]'s is a flashback, and ''WesternAnimation/MonstersInc.'' either takes place before [=TS2=] or the guy has more alien toys at home).

[[WMG: Toy Story takes place in the MarvelUniverse.]]

* One can imagine an [[{{Transformers}} Optimus Prime]] or plush [[Franchise/SuperMarioBros Mario]] seeing their own depictions by accident, like Buzz did. Presumably, there's a system in place for preventing HeroicBSOD. It didn't happen for Buzz since Andy didn't own any licensed toys (at least, licensed to something that was currently airing).

* The above troper has been [[MadOracle * ZOT* ]]ted. The above troper owes the wiki one thesis on the nature of reality in the Pixar film of their choice ("[[Anime/NeonGenesisEvangelion Instrumentality]]", "[[LightNovel/HaruhiSuzumiya Haruhi]]", and "DyingDream" don't count). ...[[GuiltyPleasures Though he does have a pocket that's got to be bigger on the inside]].

** Hamm was a banker with clogged arteries, Bo Peep was a fragile DistressedDamsel who didn't get rescued in time, Ken was...well possibly strangled by an ascot but his murderer also cut off something. I'm guessing Rex and Trixie were paleontologists or animators/SFX people who worked on dinosaur movies, which somehow led to their demise.

** I have a wicked idea how this WMG applies to Sids mutant toys, they started out a seperate toys until sid combined them, meaning two ( or more) souls sharing one body, Legs was a failing supermodel who died of botched liposuction combined with constuction worker who died when a crane fell on top of him, Babyface was Big Baby's younger brother in life who died from accidental decaptation combined with a steel worker who died when he fell into the molted metal, the toy who is half skateboard is part teenager who died in a skating accident and part pilot who's plane had crashed, some of them with mouths can talk but [[VoiceOfTheLegion they are creeped out by the sound of their voice.]]

* Why not? They are turning ''WesternAnimation/{{Cars}}'' [[JustForFun/RecycledINSPACE into]] Film/JamesBond! ...Or they '[[JustForFun/XMeetsY added]]' '[[Film/AustinPowers James Bond]]'...

We all know that Pixar was formed by the people who worked on the latter, and it shows. Pixar's mascot is a sentient desk lamp (a sentient desk lamp was one of the five main characters in ''WesternAnimation/TheBraveLittleToaster'') and the famous "A113" appears in this movie. This film was great, but flopped at the box office. So what did Pixar do? They made a blockbuster film featuring ''living toys'' (the previous had living appliances) that ended up doing very well at the box office. Even weirder, they made a [[WesternAnimation/{{Cars}} movie about living cars]] years later. Living vehicles appeared in ''WesternAnimation/TheBraveLittleToaster''.

Except for ''WesternAnimation/{{Cars}}'', which takes place after the movie 9 when the ragdolls reprogrammed the robots to make cars.

** It's never really explained how Andy's toys, and Molly's Little Bo Peep figurine, gained the power to come to life. You'd think for a Disney movie there'd be some kind of origin, but this is Pixar where viewers are just supposed to accept the fact that the toys have the ability to come to life just out of the blue (hey, it worked for ''WesternAnimation/{{Cars}}'') or draw their own conclusion about how the toys come to life (i.e., the power of being loved and played with is what keeps toys alive. If that were true, explain Sid's toys...or Jessie after her original owner left her on the side of the road in a donation box. Someone, please?). My conclusion is that, underneath her sunny, suburban mom exterior, Andy's mom practices some kind of witchcraft that turns the neighbors she hates into toys her son can play with forever (or at least until ''WesternAnimation/ToyStory3''). Here's a list of what each toy used to be:

* Jossed. Short showed the toys faking a Hawaiian vacation for Barbie and Ken after they fail to crash Bonnie's family vacation there. However, the fourth film has Woody and Bo reuniting.
