 6-Year old Andy Davis loves playing with his toys, but it would be very unfortunate to know the toys come to life when no humans or animals are around. Woody, an old-fashioned pull-string cowboy doll, is leader of all the toys in Andy s room. His toy-friends include Rex, a toy dinosaur who thinks he isn t scary enough, Hamn, a talking ceramic piggy bank, and Mr. Potato head. When Andy has a birthday party, he gets a new toy named Buzz Lightyear, who doesn t know he is just a toy, takes Woody s place of leader of the toys in Andy s room. Woody s jealousy results in a rivalry, which will result in them stuck in a toy crane machine at the local pizza place, and his taken home by Sid Philips, the next door neighbor boy who tortures toys just for fun. The soon-to-be duo form a truce and find a way at getting back into Andy s car.
