Toy Story: Doofy Buzz Lightyear! - Bootleg Zones

[@ArcNeoMasato]

I don't know why, but Woody's unpainted pullstring becoming just a power symbol is strangely funny to me.

[@ckd8520]

If I had to take a guess, I’d say that the bootleggers were basing their Buzz figure off one of the ones made for the animated series. The more cartoony face and button detailing seems to be more in line with the BLOSC style.

[@Worldpeacekid]

Yeah, looking at pictures it definitely looks like it might be a bootleg of Roboots Buzz from that toyline.

[@ExtremeWreck]

Now that you mention it, yeah it does look similar to the Buzz Lightyear of Star Command version of him. John Lasseter apparently hates that cartoon for some reason which might be why it's not on Disney+.

[@mightyfilm]

@@ExtremeWreck They hate the series most likely because they didn't do it themselves and felt it was Disney's overreach and ownership of the character and/or a mandate they had to conform to. That's the ONLY excuse I'd accept. It's one of the best Disney series based on a movie, and Tad Stones was involved with the series creation. Disney could have made a cheap-o cashgrab of a movie tie in, but they instead gave a masterclass on expanding the concept and world building with sharp humor and writing. I suspect the new movie is just Pixar taking a massive "we'll do it better" dump on it. It's a shame they refuse to acknowledge that series. I bet Tarzan the animated series is on there, though. Because, yeah, that was memorable.

[@frostymane7628]

@@ExtremeWreck Lasseter is no longer with Disney and hasn’t been for a little while now so I’m not sure if that’s the reason it’s not on Disney+. Hopefully it’s added soon I remember loving that show as a kid

[@maggotsitnspin]

You’re right on the money. I used to have most of the Mattel BLoSC line and I believe in particular, the bootleggers based this one off of a figure that came with his space speeder from the show.

[@b.parker1740]

[@Vfbmax1795]

3:51 Fun fact, this Buzz is just a scaled version of a toy for the animated series. It sat on a rocket motorcycle stylized to the shows art with a backpack unit and wings too. Weird to see a bootleg just scale it up to massive size like that, to keep the articulation/hand positions, and too add weird electronics into it.

[@c.khullabaloo4745]

Fun Fact: Originally, in Toy Story 4, Buzz was supposed to meet bootleg versions of himself when he was stuck in that carnival game. Had they kept that plot line in the final script, I would have loved to see that toy as an actual character. XD

[@mkdemigodzillawarrior]

Wait really? Wow...that would have been pretty interesting to see actually. Maybe they might do that in Toy Story 5...well, whenever that happens.

[@ATippingBarn]

It was quite a coup for Phelan to get Tim Allen to reprise his role as Buzz!

[@ColonelMustache]

I honestly wish more bootleggers would include completely mismatching models of varying quality in the same package. The juxtaposition of having a giant semi-decent bootleg next to something like satanic michelangelo would be hilarious.

[@andreasnickmann370]

Randy Newman: "you've got a friend in me" Robin: "I think we should be enemies." Randy Newman: "certainly"

[@shardot]

I'm rather sure that the "Buzz and Woody appear grandly with their newst weapon!" line is actually supposed to refer to the chest-light (laser) going by that comic. This is probably the most effort I've ever seen bootleggers put in to try and explain the chest-light. Which makes it even more stupid that they didn't include a chest-light on Buzz and instead put them in his helmet. I love it! 🤣

[@pinoyjona]

I woulda like it if instead of Bootleg Woody saying “Andy’s room,” he said “Phelan’s room.”

[@smb-c3po]

Technically more like Phelan and Allison's room now.

[@catalinamelo9932]

This is hilarious, thanks for sharing, as always. Buzz's design looks like the TV animated series one, so I wouldn't be surprised if this came after TS2 when Pixar announced another sequel. I have to say though--- those light-up red lights are pretty AWESOME.

[@WilsTube]

The mold for that Buzz is actually modelled after his appearance in the short-lived cartoon spin-off Buzz Lightyear of Star Command.

[@bumblebeejulian10]

Lo mismo pienso yo

[@MrEnte3000]

3:31 That's not a Power Button, that's his Pull String.

[@TheOtakuNinja69]

That Buzz Lightyear is a knock off version of his design from “Buzz Lightyear of Star Command”.

[@mariobabbo3497]

On the Chinafake Wiki, there is a bootleg version of the Dancing Flik from A Bugs Life. The article stated it moved like the dancing Jar Jar Binks from Thinkway Toys.

[@davidker8820]

What I find particularly hilarious about this set is that, in the movies, Woody is quite a bit taller than Buzz, to the extent that they had to do the digital equivalent of trenching in at least one scene in the original. Such is the wonderful wackiness of knock-offs.

[@SsnakeBite]

I remember Ashens reviewing something that looked eerily similar to that Buzz, but smaller and much lower quality (for starters, it didn't have the articulated elbows and knees), so apparently some people decided that bootlegging that bootleg was a good idea, for some unholy reason.

[@mariobabbo3497]

I remember when Leokimvideo looked at bootleg Woody and Buzz Lightyear figures in one of his Dark Side Knockoff toy videos, he claimed they were nasty.

If anyone is unaware: Buzz comes from a spinoff from TV: "Buzz Lightyear of Star Command" which is why he looks so much like a stoner Woody is, as the face can suggest, a 1995 Thinkway figure that is 3.5 inches (i'm guessing. if i am wrong, feel free to correct me) I'd buy Buzz only to destroy it, as it's a piece of dog shit. Woody needs a few adjustments, but is serviceable at best. He just needs a repaint and he's fine.
