There's more information in this video but this is a quick summary. Mike Mozart is going to make a full video with illustrations. Apparently he learned this information from Joe Rant, a Pixar animator who died in a car accident. They were best friends. He gave him prototype Woody and Buzz figures. He wrote in the letter "To my favorite deputy."
Wow I wish they kept this concept in the movie it's basically commentary on straight conversion. It'd mix well with the racism message.

Yeah, what the fuck? The entire second movie was about a collector of Woody merch. They could have just said it was a limited production or something.
Jordan Russell
Zootopia isn't Pixar.
Hudson Collins
Fuck, I haven't watched Mike Mozart for probably ten years, good to see him again.
Carson James
haha thanks
Gavin Cox
Mozart is that you?

This. I used to love watching his videos when I was a kid. I still use the phrase "I mean really!" quite often.
Tyler Foster
Wait, what? Is Al the collector guy from the second movie? And he grew up with Andys dad? And the toys can't separate him and his dad, and also are fine with being abandoned for what has to be like, 30+ years? And there's only one Woody doll? I'm pretty sure the second movie completely contradicts this.
All in all, I call bullshit, and it proves that trying to build up the Toy Story universe is retarded since there's just so many holes.
Brayden Parker
it's a different subset of the disney company, sure, but it's headed by Lasseter, and the disney team and pixar team often get together to discuss each other's works.
It might as well be Pixar.
Joseph Cruz
Alot of this doesn't really fit the established story.
Parker Phillips
>Woody's doll is never produced Anyone who has seen the second movie would know that doesn't make sense.
Gavin Jackson
The things I don't quite understand are literallly no other Woody dolls ever having being produced and Mr. Potato head originally belonging to Andy's dad even though he's clearly the 90s version
Also it wouldn't have been Buzz Lightyear replacing Woody's Roundup, just general space-themed toys. The Buzz Lightyear line was a fairly new thing at the time of Toy Story 1
Noah Nelson
If that's the case Andies mom must of hated Andies dad.
Levi Edwards
>Andy's dad gives Andy his Woody doll >just before he dies >while Andy's mom id pregnant with Andy's little sister
So, by the time Toy Story rolls around, Andy has only had Woody for like two years? I thought Woody was supposed to be Andy's oldest, dearest toy. I know that two years is a lot for a child and that Woody isn't age appropriate for a very very young child like a toddler, but still, I would've expected Woody to be around for longer before Toy Story starts.
Thomas Collins
The first movie made mention of him having Woody since Kindergarten.
Aaron Wilson
I'm surprised people are struggling with how this fits in canon. If any of this information is true doesn't it make more sense for it to have been pre-production notes that were filtered through and refined to the info that is actually available in the film. This ain't Star Trek, there's not some encyclopedia of immutable Toy Story lore.

The shorst and specials are funny.
Nathaniel Myers
This only makes sense if you've never seen the 2nd or third movies.
