About Toy Story:
Toy Story is the film that took the hearts of everyone. In this entertaining, close-to-home, and overall awesome Disney story, we meet Andy (but momentarily).
The genuine draw in Toy Story is Andy’s toys, who wake up at whatever point he leaves the room. He’s never without his right-hand man Woody; however, when he gets a space traveler activity figure, Buzz Lightyear, it requires some investment for the two toys to share the spotlight.
