As a long time fan of the “Toy Story” original film and its sequels and yes the subsequent toy lines I have to say that I am very excited about the opening of the brand-new Disney/Pixar film “Lightyear” which takes us back in time to the origins of the man who eventually inspired a toy. The film opens today and we’ve already shared the Teaser Trailer and the Official Trailer in other narratives which you can peruse by clicking the hyperlinked text.

In that narrative I opined about most franchises getting a wayback machine kind of story as well and I will admit that it’s kinda cool to see something like this happening to the mega-popular “Toy Story” character Buzz Lightyear. Of course this is about the astronaut who inspired the toy action figure and now the Official Trailer for the summer Disney Pixar release is presented for your viewing pleasure below. I’ve also added an expanded voice cast and new poster art so bonus.
