Woody is a nearly 80 year old toy now. You think toys ever just get tired of living and kill themselves?
Living toys is such an existential nightmare I do not wish to dwell upon. Toy Story 1 and 2 were my favorite movies as a kid but now I can't watch them without thinking how grimdark it is.
>Being a slob obsessed with a dead TV show.
At least he had a clear goal in mind to sell it to a musuem. Similarly I saw something similar. There's a store I go to for packaging, boxes bags ect. In the backeall of the shop, glass cases and a shelf around the wall are these old toys. Like G.I joes and similar toys think 30 years a vurgin collection. Anyways I always enjoyed looking at them.
On day (fairly recently) I go in and all the toys are gone. I ask the shop owner if he moved them, he told me he successfully sold them online. I can't remember uf he sold them all to one guy or multiple.
It still belonged to a kid
What he should’ve done was tell the mom “I’m a collector and we’ve been looking for that item for years, if your son ever gets tired of it, please call this number, I’ll happily buy it from you!”
And THEN knowing where she lived, he would’ve stalked their home till he saw they all leave to go to dinner or whatever, and that’s when he sneaks in
>And THEN knowing where she lived, he would’ve stalked their home till he saw they all leave to go to dinner or whatever, and that’s when he sneaks in
And part of this masterplan is the family not suspecting the creepy fat frick they met earlier who was very interested in the toy that got lost in the burglary?
So, instead of just stealing Woody - an old used toy - the way he did, he should have upgraded the misdemeanour into a much more serious crime of breaking and entering and burglary? AND introduce themselves to them before that and give them his number? All for a fricking toy?
Am I being baited?

Your stupid fricking plan just exponentially increases the risk for him, he'd have to be a bona-fide moron to do it the way you propose. How he did it in the movie is much, much easier and safer - the only reason he didn't get away with it is that the toys magically came to life.

Who would I try to impress here? Anonymous guys online who are ranting about Toy Story? And impress them with what? Something so basic as meeting with friends on new year's eve? Literally everyone does that, that's like "boasting" about having the driver's license or a smartphone. You asked why I'm still replying, so I answered.
But I was serious, I really hope you manage to get better and find some friends, loneliness is a terrible trap that can make you even worse.

And sorry, but I really don't care that some bitter anonymous guy thinks I don't have friend, I really am apathetic about that - in an hour, I'll be celebrating and I won't think about this conversation about a fat cartoon guy stealing a toy. And I'm not saying this as some snappy comeback, it's just how it is.
Again, I really hope you get better and find some friends, because it's sad that your immediate reaction to someone mentioning meeting with friends (on new year's eve of all days) is supposed to be some lie to "impress" to you.

What isn’t believeable is when you try to insert it into an arguement you’ve lost to try and save face

He would have gotten away with it scott free the way he actually did. The only reason he didn't is because, like almost every other human, dude didn't factor toys secretly being alive into his master plan.
He should've just seduced Andy's mom, married her, then over the course of a year slowly poisoned Andy in a manner that appeared as an inexplicable wasting illness, and finally sold Woody after Andy's death.
Why should he have introduced himself to them? I don't see the advantage of doing that in the plan you outlined. If he wanted to steal the toy, expressing interest in it would make him look suspicious once the toy had vanished. Especially if any news media decided to make an article about him being involved in the sales of a rare toy a short time afterwards. They do occasionally report on collector stuff like that.
I don't think it would be smart to get the toy that way. There are a bunch of what-ifs involved and it's kinda risky. What if the people in the neighborhood noticed him spying on children and mistook him for a predator? What if he gets spotted because he struggles to break into the house, or if Andy comes back earlier than expected because he forgot something? The guy was on TV commercials; if anyone saw him, he might be recognized.
Also, Andy had a habit of bringing Woody everywhere. It might be hard to get a chance to steal him at all.
>Being a slob obsessed with a dead TV show
Why people keep saying this? Al never showed any affection to his collection other than his plans for selling the full set to get rich
>Living toys is such an existential nightmare I do not wish to dwell upon. Toy Story 1 and 2 were my favorite movies as a kid but now I can't watch them without thinking how grimdark it is.
Even the original template of this story (The Velveteen Rabbit) understood the tragedy encompassed with a toy having sapience and wasting away or being discarded as its ultimate fate. Unless, maybe, it's preserved through care or happenstance.
I always wondered about a museum in the TS world, not just one where the Roundup Gang were going to. A museum with a wooden horse carved in 1200 for a peasant's child held as an example of a toy from that time period. Do you think it remembers its owner after all that time? Do they forget?
Every now and then, I wonder if there are any Toy Story fan-fictions that explore that kind of stuff.
Toy Story is a fricked up world the more you linger on it. 4th movie touched on it a bit but hopefully that'll be the end of it. Any more and things are gonna get weird…
I call it >Never go back to wonderland
The basic idea is you can create a fictional world and most audience will suspend beliefs. But if you go back to same said fictional world i.e sequels or reboots your bound to step over your own rules you established and end up poking holes in your own canon.
Didn't help that the third and fourth movie really went deep into the sad aspect of it all. Normally questions only the most autistic viewers would ever want answered.
The only thing that could redeem the inevitable endless Toy Story sequels is if they start exploring the existential nightmare of being a sentient piece of plastic
It's debatable if this works.
Is the baby doll preserved like this?
Since the robot body is technically a toy, and it makes up the bulk of the body, is the toy actually the robot and the head now part of it?
Since the head is the "Main" part, did the robot get erased in favor of the baby?
Or did Sid end up creating a brand new toy with a brand new "Soul"? Or is it a fusion of the two toy souls? Or is it two souls inhabting one body seperately?

Isn't the robot part some kind of Erector set type thing? Are the individual pieces sentient? Or are they just material that can form a consciousness when assembled into a toy, like Forky?
Same question for things like LEGO blocks or Lincoln Logs.
wasn't the fork the answer to that? when it goes from "bits" to "toy" is when it comes alive.
so construction bits aren't but the construct you made from them is.

Man I wonder how buildable toys like Bionicle fare in this universe.
Hopefully not like mine. It was a family party at my house, my nephews were especially young. They ended up smashing my boinicles into my zoids trying to create this super toy. I probably got nore upset than I should have.
This is something that I'm questioning. In Toy Story 3 we saw that a toy broken beyond reparation is considered "dead" for them, how would a Bionicle "die" then?
Considering that they can replace their broken pieces for new ones and even be improved by building a more solid body estructure or armor, not to mention that they can also be fused to create an entire different character.
We're having grown up grimdark manchild discussions here
What's define as a toy? Like I imagine that a ball gag wouldn't come to life, but I can see a dildo especially if the owner named it or did role play with it.
>vintage toy line >the most popular one is near impossible to find >the ones that nobody ever bought are super common to the point you can easily find a boxed one
Are there any real life examples of this? It seems like most of the time the opposite is true.
So once a toy is sentient, how much can you pull off them before they "die"? If someone made Forky but then decided they needed some of the stuff back for a project, would he die? if they took the pieces off of him but then replaced them later, is it still Forky or "another" Forky? What if you pull everything off the fork and put it on a new fork, then put identical pieces on the old fork. Which ones the "real" Forky?
Literal theft.
Andy shouldn't have held onto the toys that long.
Andy was still a kid in this movie you moron
>noooo you can’t just OWN things long term
have a nice day you goblin
>Andy was still a kid in this movie you moron
a kid? He was going to university.
Anyone who thinks that's still a kid is wrong.

How do you think most toys die? Majority of them only have one kid that loves them for just a couple years then it's off to the attic or a landfill.
They could just turn their brain off and go full toy mode, whatever happens to the body happens.
You know how the fork came to life because Bonnie believed him to be a toy?
What if toys just up and "Die" if they spend too long being neglected?

Don't give /toy/ ideas.
He probably jerks off to Jessie while she watches.
Only I'm allowed to do that.
Only realized now how different his design is compared to Andy and his mom, particularly his eyes.
He stole Woody.
