2010 Thinkway Toys "Playtime Sheriff Woody" Doll
Purchase Price: $34
Rarity: Out there but it's expensive
You can't have a Toy Story collection without Woody himself! I opted to get this version instead of the Toy Story Collection version because it was cheaper, and I like him just fine. He's just missing some fine detail that the Toy Story Collection version includes, but he is the movie accurate size of around 16". He is also unfortunately not voiced by Tom Hanks. I got him for around $34 at Wal-Mart when he first came out. He has 25 sayings and a unique feature so he knows when his hat is on or off!

2010 Thinkway Toys Talking Buzz Lightyear
Purchase Price: $29 (on sale)
Rarity: Rare; appears hard-to-find even online at the moment!
You also can't have a collection without Buzz Lightyear in it! This talking space ranger measures approximately 12" tall. One of the best things about this toy is that he is voiced by Tim Allen himself! With 30 phrases, he's a lot of fun to play with, and includes a laser button and pop-out wings! For an electronic toy, this figure also has remarkable articulation, around 20 points! The Toy Story Collection Buzz Lightyear has many more features but is, of course, much more expensive.

1999(?) Kellogg's Cereal In-Box Buzz Lightyear Bendy Toy
Purchase Price: A box of Frosted Flakes
Rarity: ???
This silly little thing came from a cereal box many years ago! I believe it's from 1999 when the second movie came out, but I am not positive. He's about 4-5" and can be bent in many different poses. He's definitely not the best toy in the world, but for some reason, I've seemed to hold onto him for a long time!

2010 Thinkway Toys Toy Story Collection Jessie Doll
Purchase Price: $50
Rarity: Rare and expensive
This is one of the nicest toys I've ever owned. If the box art doesn't win you over first, the doll certainly will. With a price tag of $50, it was definitely a toy that appealed more to collectors. The Toy Story Collection series did not disappoint, and neither does this Jessie doll! She stands at about 16" and has 33 sayings in all. She is unfortunately not voiced by Joan Cusack. She has a removable hat, real yarn hair, a certificate of authenticity that is packaged in a protective plastic sleeve, and she also comes with a very nice two-piece doll stand shaped like a horseshoe so she can be displayed proudly.

1999 McDonald's Happy Meal Jessie Toy
Purchase Price: McDonald's Happy Meal Price
Rarity: ???
This is another silly toy that I got around the time the second movie came out. For a McDonald's toy, it's fairly well-made, and even features real cloth material for Jessie's pants! This toy originally came with a plastic lasso that attaches to the spinning piece she is holding in her left hand, but that was lost long ago. This is another toy that I held onto for many years, and I actually remember playing with it quite often. Despite how it pales in comparison to my new Toy Story toys, I just can't bring myself to throw it away!

2000(?) Disneyland Exclusive Jessie Plush Doll
Purchase Price: $30?
Rarity: Rare and expensive; there are even bootlegs of her!
This doll is absolutely huge! She measures around 19-20" tall and is made of plush material, with the exception of her head, which is hard plastic. I got this in Disneyland as a kid many years ago as a gift. She is nicely detailed, with real yarn hair and a very nice felt-like hat. Her boots are made of pleather, and her pants feel like actual denim.

2010 Thinkway Toys Toy Story Collection Bullseye Doll
Purchase Price: $25 (buy-one-get-one-half-off promotion)
Rarity: Extremely rare and very expensive
As silly as it may sound, I feel extremely privileged to own this toy. There were never many toys of Bullseye released as it was, and this was truly a treat for die-hard Toy Story fans like me. When the Toy Story Collection series of toys was released, Bullseye was already regarded as extremely rare, and many toy stores I went to never had any, or sold out of them very fast. I was extremely lucky when my mom came across this guy laying on the ground at our local Toys R Us one day, pointed him out to me, and I managed to snag him for an absolute steal at $25 with a promotion. He is another extremely well-made toy, and is huge (around 16" tall and 12" long), hence why the picture of him is not particularly good. He comes with a large stand that supports his torso and his legs hang loose. He has about 10 "sayings", including galloping noises, neighing, and other sounds. He also comes with a certificate of authenticity in a protective plastic sleeve.

2010 Thinkway Toys Slinky Dog Pull-Toy
Purchase Price: $10
Rarity: Still pretty available, but getting expensive
Aside from the pull-toy string, which could be cut but would leave you with a big hole between his eyes, this is a very nice representation of Slink from the films. He is around 6" tall and around a foot long fully extended. His slinky material is actual metal, but he stays folded up when not in use and will not stay open very well when not tugging on him. He has very small plastic wheels on his feet to aid in pulling him.

2010 Thinkway Toys Rex
Purchase Price: $34
Rarity: Getting rare but still relatively reasonable price-wise
I have always wanted a toy of Rex, ever since I was a little kid, so when I saw this in the store, I of course had to pick him up. He's around 10" tall because of his forward-stance, and around 12" long to the tip of his tail. His head, arms and legs move and his tail swivels, and is actually detachable just like in the third movie! The detail of his scales and his paint job are both very nice.

2010 Target Exclusive Glow-In-The-Dark Space Alien
Purchase Price: $10
Rarity: Becoming rare and expensive
This little guy is far bigger than I first expected! The Target Exclusive Space Aliens are actually a set of three in different poses. I only picked up one of these guys for my personal collection. The detail on him is very nice, and he's fairly heavy, as he is not hollow inside and does not squeak like in the films. The feature of this toy is, as you probably already guessed by the name, he glows in the dark!

2010 Thinkway Toys Toy Story Collection Bucket O' Soldiers
Purchase Price: $15
Rarity: Available but somewhat pricey
I just love the packaging for these toys. The bucket looks exactly like the bucket of soldiers from the movies, with the exception of the Toy Story Collection logo on one side of it. This also comes with a certificate of authenticity sealed in a protective plastic sleeve like the other toys in this line do. The bucket includes 72 plastic green army men in a variety of different poses. Unlike many cheaply-made army men, these are extremely high quality and are not fragile or brittle.

2010 Playskool "Spud Lightyear" Mr. Potato Head
Purchase Price: ??? (received as a gift)
Rarity: Very available
This guy is so much fun to play with! His pieces are fully removable, so if you have extra pieces, he can easily look like the regular Mr. Potato Head. He comes with a movable visor, removable wings, a removable chest plate and removable space boots.

2010 Mattel Basic Poseable Twitch Action Figuretw
Purchase Price: $12.99
Rarity: Very available
Unfortunately, I'm very disappointed with this figure. His appearance is overall very good, and I love his clear plastic wings (which are movable!). Unfortunately, the packaging advertises this figure as "fully poseable" which it is not. His joints are extremely tight, and I always feel like I'm going to break him when I try to pose him. However, if you're happy with the pose he comes in, he's an excellent display piece!
