Background[]

Buzz is a toy from a science fiction franchise of the same name. In his fictional backstory, Buzz is a universal space ranger from the Galactic Alliance's elite division of the Space Ranger Corps' Universal Protection Unit and the captain of the Alliance's team. Buzz is trained in several forms of martial arts and is a highly skilled warrior in hand-to-hand combat. Being in peak physical condition, Buzz makes a perfect space ranger and is an example to many.

Black Friday reel[]

Thereel had Buzz largely undergo the same intended role of being knocked out of the window by Woody, with the only real difference being that Woody did so deliberately by tossing him out under the guise of a sportsmanship handshake. It's also implied in his sportsmanship handshake gesture regarding which among them will go to Pizza Planet in this scene that Buzz, unlike the final version, was aware by that point of actually being a toy.

Personality[]

Buzz, like many characters inToy Story, is a complicated one, who feels genuine emotions such as pride, anger, depression, and sadness, much like a regular human. These are traits that he shares with his best friend, Woody, however, one could say that Buzz is better at keeping his emotions in check than the cowboy. Buzz is known for his bravery and courage with a "by the book" mindset, believing the way people should live their life by following the rules. Though there are rare moments when he will bend the rules or tell a cover story if needed to when he knows it is the right thing to do. Though possessing great leadership qualities, one of Buzz's biggest character flaws at times is that he can be rather unemotional.

Like Woody, Buzz also goes through an evolution throughout the series. InToy Story, he was incredibly deluded and actually believed that he himself was the real Buzz Lightyear and would not listen when told that he's really a toy modeled off of the character. Because of this, Buzz believed he could do everything that a real space ranger was able to do such as fly and that his "laser" was a deadly weapon when it was actually just a light bulb. Since seeing the truth of his delusion, Buzz has shown a degree of embarrassment of it. InToy Story 2, while being attacked by another Buzz Lightyear action figure who also thought he was the real Buzz Lightyear, Buzz remarked in a self-conscious and annoyed tone: "tell me I wasn'tthis deluded."

Buzz can come off as being charismatic and charming, most of Andy's toys completely adored him just after he was unwrapped. EvenAndy, whose favorite toy was Sheriff Woody and was completely obsessed with cowboys since kindergarten, went head over heels for Buzz who instantly became his other favorite toy. Buzz also possessed something of a vengeful side, such as attacking Woody when he tried to "terminate" him which was justified by saying "revenge is not something we enforce on my planet. But we're not on my planet, are we?" He is a little bit irrational at times such as attempting to save another toy from being blown up by the neighborhood juvenile delinquentSid, despite not realizing that he would be destroyed as well but it also shows that he is quite brave as he was willing to rescue a defenseless person even if the odds were stacked against him.

However, his personality changed completely, especially after discovering the truth about himself. At first, he went into a state of manic depression, thinking that he himself was nothing more than "a stupid, plain, insignificant toy", and also developed a bit of a suicidal side. Such moments were when Sid's "cannibal" toys were amassing around him he didn't even look fazed by this. Even when being strapped to an explosive rocket, he didn't seem to remotely care that he might die as he was that depressed. But after being given a motivational speech by a captive Woody, he begins to understand his role as a toy; to bring happiness and joy to their owner. After this, Buzz learns a lot more about honor, friendship, bravery, and selflessness. He is usually seen without his helmet as ofToy Story 2 because he knows he's not a real space ranger and toys do not need space helmets.

ByToy Story 2, Buzz has completely accepted himself as a toy, especially during his encounter withUltra Buzz makes him realize how deluded he was back in the first film. Woody is one of his closest friends and understands him better than anyone other than the latter's girlfriend,Bo Peep.

Buzz is also slightly clueless to human cultures, such as the case while he was trying to calm Woody down about cowboy camp and accidentally pronounces s'mores as "schmoes," which is corrected by the latter. This was also shown during the first one while looking at Sid, he mistook his pet dogScud for him. Also inToy Story Toons:Hawaiian Vacation, he mispronounced Hawaii as "Heiweiaii".

Buzz notoriously has a massive crush onJessie. While Buzz is normally awkward around her in Play mode whilst in Demo mode, he refers to her as a temptress and immune to her "bewitching good looks", but when accidentally turned to Spanish mode he becomes passionate, confident, and romantic, openly expressing his love for the cowgirl with romantic poetry and admiration. He showed something of a jealous and showy side when Woody returned and Jessie was only happy to see him alive, Buzz replied "el vaquero/the cowboy" in a jealous tone. While trying to escape Sunnyside instead of helping Woody up, he athletically opens a hatch by himself as a means of impressing his crush. After the events ofToy Story 3, the two have seemingly started a legitimate relationship.

Physical appearance[]

Buzz Lightyear is a stocky electronic spaceman action figure. He has fair skin, blue eyes, and an outline of a swirl on his chin, which gives him a cleft chin. While inToy Story 2 and the opening portion ofBuzz Lightyear of Star Command: The Adventure Begins, he is described as "fat", he is more likely simply muscular judging by the appearance of the human Buzz shown inLightyear. Toy Buzz is 11.43 inches tall, with his helmet adding 0.37 inches, and human Buzz is 5'9 according to a promotion forLightyear.

He wears a purple head cap and collar, and a clear plastic space helmet with purple buttons on both sides that open or close it. His green torso consists of a light blue sticker that has the words "SPACE RANGER" and the Star Command symbol, purple straps connected to it, three oval talk buttons - one blue, one green, and one red, a yellow name tag that says "LIGHTYEAR" above a red button that pops out purple plastic glider wings with red and white candy cane lining on the top of each, and green ends with red and green flashing lights. On his back, he has a white jetpack with a purple valve and green triangular accents and two black and yellow stickers - one says, "DANGER", and the other says "JET EXHAUST". His white arms have green stripes with gray circular elbows and matching spheres on the end of his upper arms with black rings on it. After breaking his arm, the gray sphere on his left arm is revealed to have a white arm socket peg resembling a screw. His gloves have purple lines on his knuckles and fingertips and green squares on the back of each. His hand wrists are thus ball-jointed for articulation. His right arm has a red button on his upper arm with a yellow and black striped sticker that reads "LASER" and a red light on his right wrist. His left arm has a Space Ranger symbol sticker on his upper arm and a communicator sticker in his wrist communicator (the latter of which is later peeled off) and "MADE IN TAIWAN" engraved inside on his lid of the wrist communicator. A black bending with a thin green waist. His white spaceman pants have matching collars at the bottom and gray spheres behind his knees and hold his white shoes with green toe accents, purple soles, and black handwriting reading "ANDY" ("Bonnie" afterToy Story that Time Forgot) on his right shoe sole.

Appearances[]

Toy Story[]

In the originalToy Story film, Buzz is a birthday present to Andy from his mother,Mrs. Davis. As Woody introduces Buzz to Andy's room and the other toys, the cowboy quickly learns that Buzz believes himself to be an actual "space ranger". This doesn't stop Buzz from becoming the most popular toy in the bedroom, as well as with Andy, who ditches his western aesthetics for that of astronauts and space. That, coupled with Buzz's delusions, sparks a bitter rivalry between Buzz and Woody.

One day, as Andy is about to leave forPizza Planet, Woody tries to hide Buzz to prevent him from going but he instead, accidentally knocks him out the window. As planned, regardless, Woody is taken instead of Buzz, but only because Andy cannot find him. Buzz sneaks into the back of the family's car anyway. During a gas stop, Buzz confronts Woody for his actions, but their bickering results in the two being left behind. They catch a ride to Pizza Planet but are taken by a cruel child named Sid Phillips before they can reunite with Andy. At Sid's house, Buzz spots a commercial on television advertising the Buzz Lightyear action figure which reveals that the action figures are not made for flight, proving Woody's claim that he's only a toy and not a real space ranger. Buzz tries to prove his legitimacy by trying to fly out of the house through the upstairs window by leaping off the bannister, but ends up bouncing off the stairs, falling to the entryway floor, and breaking his arm instead. He falls into a state of depression, which inadvertently foils all of Woody's plans to get home. After Woody failed to escape Sid's house, the Mutant Toys surround Buzz and fixed his arm back in place, surprising Woody.

Eventually, Sid plots to have Buzz blown up with a new firework he ordered. As Buzz accepts his fate, Woody confesses his insecurities, revealing he felt inadequate compared to a toy as amazing as Buzz. This gives Buzz his confidence back (after Woody says that he can't go back home, because Andy and his toys wouldn't love him anymore), but Sid takes him before the two can escape. Woody gathers the rest of Sid's toys to foil their owner's scheme, successfully saving Buzz. The two then try to return to Andy, but he and his family have already packed up and began to move to their new home. Woody and Buzz use the rocket to catch up, which eventually blasts the two into the air. Instead of plummeting to their doom, Buzz uses his wing feature to "fall with style" (gliding) safely into Mrs. Davis' car, reuniting the two with Andy.

Toy Story 2[]

InToy Story 2, after Woody is stolen byAl McWhiggin, owner ofAl's Toy Barn, Buzz plans a rescue mission consisting of himself, Rex, Mr. Potato Head, Slinky, and Hamm. At Al's Toy Barn, while separated from the group, Buzz meetsanother figure of himself. Unfortunately, he believes he is a real space ranger and seals Buzz away in a box to keep him from "going rogue". Buzz manages to escape and follows his friends (and the belt Buzz) to Al's apartment, where they reunite with Woody, but there is still confusion about who the real Buzz Lightyear is. Buzz proves his legitimacy by removing the helmet of the belt Buzz's and showing Andy's name on the bottom of his boot. He tries to convince Woody to return home before Al can sell him off toTokyo,Japan.

Woody, however, reveals that he wants to stay, as he has grown fearful that Andy will abandon him upon growing up, and that his roundup gang will have to go back to storage if he doesn't go to the museum with them. This causes Buzz to use Woody's words from the first film to persuade him, saying that he is a toy, not a collector's item. He then reminds Woody how he once taught him that life is only worth living if he is being loved by a kid, and that he came all the way to rescue him because he believed him. But Woody still refuses to go back home, and he even coldly tells Buzz that he just wasted his time. Hurt by Woody's words and disappointed at his actions, Buzz and the others start to head home without Woody. Woody tells Buzz that going to the museum is his only chance, to which Buzz asks him if he wants to be watched from glass and never be loved by kids again. Fortunately, after listening to "You've Got a Friend in Me" from the TV, Woody has a change of heart. Unfortunately, the bitterStinky Pete stops this, forcing Woody to stay with him and the rest of Al'sWoody's Roundup toy set. Buzz and the other toys follow Al to theairport, where Woody is put into the luggage compartments. They manage to find him and fight off Stinky Pete, saving Woody as well asBullseye andJessie, who all return home with the rest of Andy's toys. During the epilogue, Buzz shows signs of affection towards Jessie, which she accepts.

Toy Story 3[]

InToy Story 3, Andy has grown up and is preparing to leave for college. A few toys still remain, and all (except Woody) come to agree that the best thing for them to do is donate themselves. Under Buzz's leadership, they are taken toSunnyside Daycare, home to toys that have been outgrown by their owners. The leader of the daycare,Lotso, promises the toys that they'll live a long and happy life with Sunnyside, solidifying their decision to stay. This angers Woody, who believes they should return home. The other toys reluctantly refuse, and a downhearted Buzz bids Woody farewell.

Later on, Buzz and the rest of Andy's toys are eager to play with the kids from the Caterpillar Room, though playtime isn't as exciting as they hoped it would. They find out that the Caterpillar Room is actually filled with toddlers who do not know how to play with their toys properly. After an extremely rough and torturous day of playtime in the Caterpillar Room, Buzz sets off to request that he and his friends be moved to the Butterfly Room with older children. As he sneaks into the secret hideout of Lotso's gang inside the vending machine, Buzz finds out that they deliberately put him and Andy's toys in the Caterpillar Room. Before Buzz can leave the vending machine, he bumps into Big Baby, who throws him on the into sight of Lotso's gang. Big Baby covers Buzz using a hood with a rag doll face and is taken to the library.

Buzz is later tied up to a "timeout chair" made out ofLego Duplo bricks and angrily demands Lotso's minions to let him see Lotso. Just then, Lotso appears and unties him. Buzz explains to him that the children in the Caterpillar Room are too young to play with toys, and requests that he and his friends could transfer to the Butterfly Room. Lotso grants his request and recruits him as a member of his gang. Buzz is about to go get his friends, but Lotso refuses to allow them to go to the Butterfly Room, saying that they need to stay in the Caterpillar Room. Buzz argues that his friends don't belong there, and Lotso tells him that for the good of the community, he makes the newer, stronger toys to go through the hardships he and his gang can't bear anymore. While Buzz agrees with Lotso, he still refuses to leave his friends behind, because they are a family and must stay together. This causes Lotso to drop his kind facade and switch Buzz to "demo mode". In this state, Buzz's memories are blocked, and as a result, his space ranger delusions return. He is later ordered to imprison his friends for trying to escape the daycare. Buzz is then left in charge to guard them every night, though the toys (under Woody's guidance, who returned to save them) intimate a plan to return Buzz to normal and return to Andy.

Barbie forcesKen to tell her what Lotso did to Buzz and gets the manual from theBookworm. Unfortunately, their tampering only switches Buzz to Spanish mode, making him a romantic and charismatic space ranger with no memories or the ability to speak English. Nevertheless, he is told that Woody and the others are his friends and joins them in escaping Sunnyside. While doing so, he develops romantic feelings for Jessie, though she is more baffled by his Spanish mode than taken. After confronting Lotso and his gang, the toys are dragged into a garbage truck due to Lotso dragging Woody into the garbage dump and hauled to thedump. Along the way, a television falls on Buzz and reverts him back to his normal self.

Inside the garbage factory, Buzz and the others narrowly escape termination and return to Andy's home the next morning. They wash themselves off and place themselves in a box meant for the attic, which Andy has always intended for them to go while he takes Woody to college. Instead, however, they are donated to a little girl namedBonnie, who loves and cares for them just as much as Andy did in the past.

Toy Story Toons[]

Buzz plays a significant role in "Small Fry", where he and Rex are taken with Bonnie toPoultry Palace. There, Buzz is replaced by a Fun Meal Buzz Lightyear, leaving Buzz stranded at the restaurant. Unable to get through the front door, Buzz goes through the vents, only to fall into the basement, where he meets a support group for discarded Fun Meal Toys. Buzz is mistaken for an abandoned Fun Meal Toy and is encouraged to join the group. Fortunately, he manages to escape and reunites with his friends before they make their attempt at rescue. Afterward, Buzz takes his diminutive counterpart to the restaurant, where the latter joins the support group with the former as his "sponsor".

Toy Story of Terror![]

Buzz is seen on a road trip with Bonnie to her grandmother's house, watching a scary movie with the other toys. When they are forced to stop off at theSleep Well motel for the night after Woody warnsMr. Potato Head not to wander off because he might get lost, he leaves anyway and disappears and Buzz, Woody, and Jessie go to search for him and eventually come across his arm. A monster (later revealed to beMr. Jones) is seen snatching up all the toys, and takes the arm, Buzz and Woody, leaving Jessie alone by herself. It is later revealed that Buzz, along with all the other toys, were taken toRon's office, where he sells the toys on eBay. The toys are all later saved by Jessie when she opens the cabinet, and when they leave to check out, Bonnie andher mother notice the toys in the background and retrieve them. Buzz along with all the other toys continue their road trip.

Toy Story That Time Forgot[]

Buzz first appears in the special when Bonnie takes some of her toys toMason's house. He walks around the Battlesaur playsets. Later, when it is revealed that the Battlesaurs are not aware that they're toys, Buzz tries to explain toThe Cleric what they are, but he is shrugged off. Later, Buzz along with Woody is seen being thrown into the Battlesaurs arena, where they are forced to fight. When they lose, the Cleric orders them to be destroyed. However, once the Cleric reveals he knows he's a toy, he realizes he can't let them reveal his secret to the other Battlesaurs.

Buzz and Woody are forced to a vent fan, where they would be destroyed by it, but the fan is turned off byTrixie before they can be destroyed. Buzz later returns with Bonnie toher house.

Toy Story 4[]

Buzz returns inToy Story 4. In the flashback, he helps Woody and Bo with rescuing RC. Later, he asks Woody how he is and he is chosen as the towns mailman. He also is the first one to be excited about a road trip. He later meets Forky and mentions how he's a handful the next morning. Later he is told by Woody caring for him is harder than he thought. Later he gets told about an inner voice and notices Forky disappear. He goes with Woody and the gang on a road trip with Bonnie, where the group finds a carnival. He then realizes that Woody was right and decides to find them. He is strapped to a prize shelf at a carnival game, where he meetsDucky and Bunny. He escapes and Ducky and Bunny immediately capture him. Woody and Bo Peep assign Buzz, Ducky, and Bunny to help them rescueForky.

At the antique store, Buzz gathers everyone to steal a key and find Woody and Bo Peep, who end up meetingDuke Caboom, who joins them and they run intoGabby Gabby and theBensons and exit the antique store, but not before noticing Bonnie's backpack.

Woody begs everyone to get back in the store, but they leave, and Buzz returns to the RV. Inside the RV, Buzz urges Trixie to act as a hidden GPS and Bonnie's dad is creeped out as if the RV was a monster truck.

After arriving at the carnival, Buzz and the gang find Woody, Bo, Ducky, Bunny, and Duke Caboom. Woody is hesitant to return to Bonnie so Buzz tells him to stay with Bo and the rest of her friends. They watch Woody give his sheriff badge to Jessie, and everyone gives Woody a goodbye hug. As the RV is about to leave, Buzz and Woody utter the words "To infinity and beyond" for the last time. As the RV exits the RV park, Rex asks if Woody will be a lost toy and Buzz replies that he will not.

• Buzz Lightyear was mentioned in Justin Bieber's song, "Boyfriend".
• On the posters and artwork of his spaceship box, you can see Buzz has some purple trim on his green belt which is absent on his actual doll, his laser button is different, and lacks some decals etc.
• Angus MacLane stated that that the toy version of Buzz in-verse was based on aBuzz Lightyear cartoon in-verse unseen to the audience, not the former itself. That being said, the director does note that he views the in-universe series as not having been produced yet, seemingly establishingLightyear as having come out within theToy Story timeline sometime before the events of the original film and, therefore, the previous Buzz spinoffs.^[2] In addition, a deleted opening scene for the originalToy Story film shows Andy watching a TV show of the character under the nameBuzz Lightyear: Defender of the Universe.
  • Maclane also stated that Buzz's said spinoff itselfLightyear, was produced in-verse in the late 1970s or early 1980s, meaning Buzz himself is a cartoon character in-verse produced sometime then long before the events of the original film sometime around the 70s.^[3][4][5]
• Buzz Lightyear's catchphrase, "To infinity and beyond", was referenced inBeyoncé's song "Single Ladies (Put a Ring On It)".
• In all three films of the originalToy Story trilogy, there is one delusional Buzz Lightyear toy who believes he is a real Space Ranger.
  • In the first film, it was the current Buzz Lightyear who believed he was a real space ranger until he learned he was actually just a toy just like Woody had said. This catches up to him when he views the Buzz Lightyear commercial in Sid's home. He also realises upon viewing that he is not "Stationed up in the Gamma Quadrant of Sector 4" rather he was made in Taiwan on Earth.
  • In the second film, when the toys went to Al's Toy Barn, Buzz was attacked by another newer Buzz Lightyear after he tried to take newer Buzz's belt, and was placed in a display box while the other delusional Buzz went with the Woody search group after hearing Rex say he found the secret to beating Zurg (in a video game). It should be noted that this is technically the only instance in the film series thus far that Andy's Buzz himself does not become delusional about being a genuine space ranger.
  • In the third film, Lotso's gang kidnapped Buzz and reset him to Demo mode where he lost his memories and reverted to his delusional Buzz state. When his friends attempted to reset him, they found they couldn't reset him by putting him back to normal mode and instead accidentally reset him to delusional Buzz in Spanish mode. He later regained his memories and his current persona when he was hit by a TV set while saving Jessie.
• Buzz is similar toBolt from the2008film of the same name, as both believed to possess their TV show superpowers' powers, and yet, do not have them. It is not until later that both heroes realize (and admit) that they don't have any powers.
• Buzz's name is different in some languages:
  • In the European French dub, he is named Buzz L'Éclair (Buzz Thunderbolt), though he keeps his original name in the Canadian French version.
    • On his merchandise releases by Hasbro in 2001, his yellow name tag sticker has Lightyear replaced with Buzz L'Éclair itself in French releases which is nowhere present in the actual said dub of the film.
  • The Slovenian dub calls him Ken Kozmoblisk. To distinguish him from Barbie's Ken, Buzz is called 'Blisk' for short instead of Ken.
• The role of Buzz Lightyear was originally offered toBilly Crystal who turned it down, a move he later admitted regretting. Crystal eventually voicedMike Wazowski,Monsters, Inc. and reprised the role inMonsters University. Also,Bill Murray,Chevy Chase,Jim Carrey,Dan Aykroyd,Jason Alexander,Matthew Broderick,Kevin Costner,Michael J. Fox,Richard Gere,David Hasselhoff,Michael Keaton,Wayne Knight,Bill Paxton,Dennis Quaid,Kurt Russell,Adam Sandler, andJohn Travolta were also considered for the role.^{[6][7][8][9][10]} Wayne Knight would later voice Al McWhiggin inToy Story 2 and Michael Keaton would later voice Ken inToy Story 3.
• Buzz quotes Captain James T. Kirk fromStar Trek (1966) when he remarks, "There seems to be no sign of intelligent life anywhere..."
• Buzz does a Vulcan salute from heStar Trek series when saying "Farewell" to Woody at the gas station, when leaving Andy's house to embark on his mission to rescue Woody, and when saying "Farewell" to the other Buzz who is playing catch with Zurg.

• The Lightyear tire brand in theCars franchise is a reference to Buzz Lightyear's name and is also a parody of the Goodyear tire brand.
• Buzz appears during the end credits ofCars as a car, arguing with a car version of Woody. He is a Space Rover, and Woody is a station wagon.
• AllPiston Cup racers' tires inCars (includingLightning McQueen's) are branded as "Lightyear", both a reference to Buzz Lightyear and a play on the name Goodyear (an actual tire manufacturer).
• The original script forToy Story 3 had Buzz and his entire toy line recalled back to Taiwan (where the Buzz Lightyear toys are made) due to a defect. Apparently, that defect could have explained why Buzz and his toy line believed themselves to be real space rangers. While this plot idea was ultimately scrapped, the final script did still include an explanation as to why the entire toy line had at the very least initial delusional beliefs to being the real Buzz Lightyear (as apparently they are pre-set to Demo Mode when first made).
  • Although, it appears that some Buzz Lightyear units are an exception to this flaw; A Buzz Lightyear doll Andy Davis' grandmother mistakenly sent to him as a second action figure who switched places with Andy's his original Buzz in "The Return of Buzz Lightyear", published in issues 0-3 ofBoom! Studios'Toy Story comic book, was completely aware that he was a toy and was dissapointed of being recalled and just wanted to be played with.
  • And According to the concept arts for the original version ofToy Story 3, and Zurg's box when Buzz runs over it before waking him inToy Story 2, his toy line seems to be produced by a company under the nameWocka-Wocka Toys. And in the scrapped Circle 7 Screenplay ofToy Story 3, Buzz himself and his franchise was created and designed by a Taiwanese man namedMr. Kagoy who was also the owner and founder of the Wocka-Wocka toy company.^[11] Surprisingly enough, Buzz would even snap alive right in front of Kagoy and the latter would cooperate with Buzz and his friends to save toys from being crushed by the machine which Kagoy didn't intend for his workers to do.
• According to earlier drafts ofToy Story 2, our Buzz was originally intended to obtain a Utility Belt inToy Story 2 from a newer release of him under the name "Ultra Buzz 2000" (who would end up asUltra Buzz Lightyear in the final film) after defeating Zurg and would use the belt's gadgets to break into Al's room to save Woody.^[12] In the final version, Ultra Buzz retains his Utility Belt, although Andy's Buzz attempted to obtain it off his waist causing Ultra to suddenly snap to life.
  • And since after the sequel's troubled development where the toy companies making figures didn't have enough time to adjust their toys to account for the script change, Mattel (who also made full-inched Buzz figures at that late time period) released a small-inched action figure of Buzz himself based of this unused scene under the name of "Thunder Punch Buzz Lightyear" containing a removable green utility belt which is the same one Cyber Hook Buzz Lightyear (a smaller-inched version of Techno Gear Buzz Lightyear variant which was based off Ultra Buzz 2000 himself).^[13]
• In only the North American release ofToy Story 2, Buzz gives out his speech with the US flag in the backdrop and the US national anthem, "The Star-Spangled Banner," playing in the background, similar to the way General Patton did in the filmPatton (1970).
• The colors on Buzz are the favorites ofJohn Lasseter (lime green) and his wife, Nancy (purple).
• Buzz's facial features are loosely based on John Lasseter himself.
• Buzz was based on the G.I. Joe toys from the1960s. However, he more closely resembles the classic Hasbro toy Rom the Space Knight (coincidently, figures of Buzz himself where produced by the latter in 2001). Like Buzz, Rom is a Space Ranger in a suit of powered armor who fights a race of hostile alien beings with a special laser.
• In theHouse of Mouse episode "House Ghosts",Donald Duck dresses up like Buzz for Halloween.
• Buzz, along with Woody, were at one point planned to appear as new summons inKingdom Hearts II Final Mix, but this idea was scrapped.
• Buzz was nominated for AFI's 100 Years...100 Heroes and Villains. One of three animated heroes appears on the list, along with Belle and Peter Pan. Unfortunately, none of them made the list.
• Buzz is 11.43 inches tall, and his helmet adds 0.37 inches.
• The quality of Buzz's voice box deteriorated within the ten years betweenToy Story 2 andToy Story 3, and is now on par with Woody's sound quality (ironic since Woody is from the 1950s).
  • Despite coming to terms with his identity as a toy, Buzz is apparently perplexed by the existence of his voice box. InToy Story 4, after misinterpreting Woody's words, Buzz comes to believe his voice box is in fact his conscience, or "inner voice", and begins to listen to its recordings for advice when faced with conflict.
• Buzz and Jessie's dance moves during the end credits ofToy Story 3 were choreographed by Tony Dovolani and Cheryl Burke ofDancing with the Stars.

• Buzz has labels on his rear end. InToy Story, he had a label that said "Disney," which was shown when he attempted to fly out of the window at Sid's house, and inToy Story 2, he had a Disney/Pixar label that was shown as he (riding RC) knocked over Hamm (as Evil Dr. Porkchop) during one of Andy's play scenarios. This was also seen inToy Story 3, just before he was picked up by a child at Sunnyside. The latter reappears inKingdom Hearts III.
• The characters that Buzz and Zurg are based on from whatever they're from in theToy Story universe, are spoofs of Luke Skywalker and Darth Vader. They parody one of the last scenes inStar Wars Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back, where Zurg claims he's Buzz's father just like Vader did to Luke, as the Zurg and Utility Belt Buzz inToy Story 2 think they're the real versions of themselves and fight in a parody of the Luke/Vader fight inStar Wars.
• WhenToy Story was being made, Buzz wasn't going to be in the main plot. Tinny was going to be in his place. But John Lasseter decided a tin toy wouldn't be a good toy for a boy, so Tinny was scrapped and Lasseter decided to put in a military/space character that a boy would want so badly. When names came around, the original two were Lunar Larry and Tempis from Morph. In the documentaryBeyond Infinity: Buzz and the Journey to Lightyear, an early test script had him named TECOR which was an acronym for Telegalactic Earthbound, Cyborg Of Rimboz with other suggested names being TOLAR or MICROZ.
• Stinky Pete said that space rangers sold more than the 1950's cowboys, which makes it so Buzz's predecessors have been around since the early or late 1960s.
• Buzz tends to mispronounce words. For example, he mispronounces the word "S'mores" as "Schmoes", and mispronouncesHawaii as "Hay-way-I". Woody corrects him both times.
  • This is most likely due to the fact that he hails from Morph while Hawaii is well-known to be a place on Earth.
• Buzz is also shown to have weak leadership, making actions without giving orders whatsoever, hence the reason why Woody let Jessie lead his gang.
• Despite his strength and size, Buzz can be easily be picked up by Rex, Jessie, and Bo throughout the series.
• InToy Story 3, Buzz's batteries on his back are branded with "Buy n Large", a company appears inWALL-E.
• InThe Shaggy Dog as Dave Douglas (played by Tim Allen) is racing to the court in his dog form, he dives off a bridge and yells out Buzz's catchphrase "To infinity and beyond!" Flik also says it inA Bug's Lifeouttakes as he grabs a piece of dandelion, he apologized soon afterward saying that he couldn't resist.
  • The line was parodied in theBuzz Lightyear of Star Command episodeLost in Time as "To infinity and even further", as well as in the episodeMira's Wedding as "To infinity and jolly well past that".
• InThe Santa Clause 2 asScott Calvin is fightingToy Santa (both of whom are played by Tim Allen), Toy Santa tells Scott "You are one sad strange little man."
  • In theCars credits, the line (as well asToy Story) was parodied when the Buzz car tells the Woody car "You are a sad strange little wagon."
• He is referenced in theRunaways episode "Last Rites" when Karolina refers to her flying as "falling with style."
• Hisoriginal 1990s dolls by Thinkaway have his wings popping out from the sides, but starting from Hasbro'sToy Story and Beyond! figures being theDeluxe Electronic Buzz Lightyear in 2001, they finally swing out like in the films.
  • The Karate Chop action feature is not commonly seen on the real-world toys either, but notable example is theDisney Store release of him released since 2010 does however include the feature, but consequently, the wings had to be shortened to make way for the mechanisim connected to the back.
  • Due to limitations with the electronics and mechanisim, the real-world toys can't retract their helmets all the way inside their bodies.
  • He didn't have a wrist communicator either on most of his original era of dolls, save for 2 special edition releases of the model being Thinkaway'sIntergalactic Buzz Lightyear from 1996 andInfinity Edition Buzz Lightyear from 1998 have a flapping wrist communicator, alongside Mattel's similarFlight and Night control Buzz Lightyears from around 1999.
    • So far (much like the other characters), no Buzz Lightyear toy is completely accurate to the one seen in the films.
• In the first film, Buzz freezes when he is around Andy and Sid despite originally believing he was real and not a toy.
  • According toLee Unkrich, co-director ofToy Story 2 & director ofToy Story 3, it is an involuntary instinct that Buzz has.^[14]
• In reality, Buzz wouldn't be able to retract his helmet shields inside his body due to the fact that the domes would block the mechanism for the features and electronics. This is the real reason why the real-life toys based on him only have the helmet retracted half-way.
  • It is also physically impossible for his other arm to reach his laser bicep since the shoulders don't have enough extension. In some scenes when he does this, you can see animation goofs of his biceps incorrectly sinking into his chest while he is doing so.
  • When Buzz's jetpack is opened up in the third film, there is no mechanism connected shown on the back for his wings and karate chop action, making it questionable as to how his features actually work.
• His toy mode facial expressions changed throughout the films. The first film has him with a serious expression, but the second film gives him a happier expression (though the former was reused for the display Ultra Buzz Lightyear, while the rest of the on-sale units had the same expression as Andy's Buzz did in the latter). InToy story 3, it changed again and has been his latest ever since. This was most likely done to represent his softening character.
  • There is one scene in the fourth film where Buzz has a closed-mouth-smile when he should have his correct facial expression of a grin. Additionally, the closed-mouth smile expression was identically used for Thinkaway's 2019 Karate Chop Buzz Lightyear.
  • In the original film, there is also another error where he is briefly seen with a dead-on closed mouth expression when being captured by Sid in the claw machine, alongside the rest of his toy-line of the aisle seen in the commercial of Al's Toy Barn.
• InToy Story 2,Tour Guide Barbie mentioned that back in1995, retailers didn't order enough Buzz Lightyear toys to meet demand. This is based on a real event of where since the success of the firstToy Story, Thinkaway's original line of Buzz Lightyear dolls had a higher demand than retailers expected.
• Despite peeling off his wrist communicator sticker in the first movie and it being permanently absent from his wrist when seen in later movies, real-life Buzz Lightyear toys with an openable communicator (even those specifically based on Andy's Buzz) still include the sticker on his wrist.^[15]
• Although it appears Andy wanted to keep Buzz's original spaceship box in the first film, it is absent inToy Story 2 and was never seen since (assuming it was trashed/thrown away), it does however appear in adeleted opening scene where the aliens are seen using it as a hideout during playtime. It was also meant to make a return in the earlier version ofToy Story 3, according to the story draft where Buzz would sit inside it and find inside there, a book of instructions (which made its way in the final film) showing information how to get him fixed, saying: "For repairs, contact Wocka-Wocka Toy Company, Taipei, Taiwan, Republic of China".^[16]
• It's unknown why Sunnyside Daycare had a Buzz Lightyear manual, unless they once had a Buzz Lightyear action figure themselves.
• InLightyear, he doesn't get his toy counterpart's identical-looking signature space ranger suit until at the end of the film.
• Buzz became the first among Andy's toys besides Woody to primarily star in aToy Story-related media, with that being the TV filmBuzz Lightyear of Star Command: The Adventure Begins, as well asits follow-up series and the spin-off feature filmLightyear.
• Due to advances in graphical technology by the time ofToy Story 4's production, Buzz's body is shown to be covered in minuscule scratches and dents in the present day, likely the result of many years of being played with, in addition to his frequent adventures. The "LIGHTYEAR" name tag on his chest, revealed to be a sticker, has also begun to peel off; the same thing occurs with the rest. It can also be seen that his plastic is scratched up and slowly wearing out. This shows the viewers that he is getting old. And throughout the franchise, the shades of Buzz's green and purple colors have slightly altered.
• Buzz was once referenced in theParks and Recreation episode "Two Funerals", where Bobby Newport mistook April Ludgate's sarcastic identification as Buzz Aldrin (where Buzz was actually named after) as being this Buzz.
  • Coincidentally, April's actressAubrey Plaza has also played asClaire Wheeler in theMonsters Inc. franchise, a fellow Pixar project.
  • Ironically enough, that show's leading starAmy Poehler would later go on to play asJoy in theInside Out franchise, another Pixar project. Even more ironic,Parks and Recreation itself originally ended in the same year as when the firstInside Out film was released.
