^^^ not that I know of.

You know what one of my favorite sayings on the new Buzz Lightyear is? The one when you open his helmet and he does his "my eyeballs could've been sucked from their sockets!" bit.... but it rarely plays!

I hope they make a Mrs. Potato Head to go with Mr. Potato Head. I had one from 1999 when Toy Story 2 came out but I honestly have NO idea where it could even be. lol

i bought the Bucket O Soldiers, but I am disappointed that it does not have the Certificate of Authenticity inculded.

Did you look for the differences in packaging like I mentioned? the COA is right on the label of those that come with it.

I think I'm going to head to toys r us today to pick up the proper one myself.

[PixarFan2006]

Great, I bought the wrong bucket. I guess I can still display it in my room.

[rexcrk]

I'm actually gonna be heading to Toys R Us today too! Maybe I'll get lucky and find the proper Bucket =]

My Jessie doll was borrowed by a friend, that one who does things like climb ledges that stand without enough support. Poor Jessie fell out an upper story window of Bea's house and landed into the mud, then was thrown away. I was very angry and sad about this.

There are new Jessie dolls, aren't there?

Please say yes.

[magicalwands]

Oh yes! I've seen it at Toys R Us. It's package is similar to that of the least expensive Woody doll. I think they will be coming out with a better Jessie doll which lives up to the more expensive Woody and Buzz with the billions of features.

[Kyle]

Expensive Jessie is planned for march 2010.

[rexcrk]

Yeah I've got "current Jessie" in a picture with "CoA Expensive Woody" in this thread lol.

So I went to Toys R Us today, didn't see any Bucket O' Soldiers. Then I went to Target and they only had the non-CoA version =/

[Kyle]

No soldiers for me either, not even the old version. Isn't even a spot for them of the shelf anymore.

[PixarFan2006]

I went to Meijer today looking for the Coa Aliens and the CoA soldiers bucket, but came up empty handed. Are any of the toys exclusive to certain areas?

[slave2moonlight]

If anyone "in the know" can find it easy to do so, please post a list of which COA toys are out and their cheapest known prices, and where they have been seen. Only places in my area I know of that carry them are Toys R Us and the Disney Store (neither very good in terms of friendly pricing, though perhaps Target and Wal-Mart wouldn't be any better, but I'm wondering if those stores ever carry them at all).

[rexcrk]

From what I've seen:

Buzz and can be found at Toys R Us and Target for $49.99 and Disney Store for more like $59.99.

Woody is the same price as Buzz at Toys R Us. I didn't notice if he was at Target or Disney Store 'cause I wasn't looking for him >_>

Rex I've only seen at the Disney Store for $59.50.

RC was I believe $79.99 at Toys R Us when I bought him a few months ago, don't know if the price changed because, obviously I haven't needed to check the price

The Aliens were $29.99 at Toys R Us and the Disney Store.

The Bucket O Soldiers with CoA (I've got pics below ) was $14.50 at the Disney Store, that's the only place I've seen it.

[rexcrk]

I found the Bucket O Soldiers with CoA at Disney Store today! I'll post details and pics later or tomorrow!

[rexcrk]

Ok guys, so here's the story. I went to get my car inspected today... and of course I didn't know how to get there so I got lost. I managed to find my way back to a place I knew, and rather than attempt searching for the inspection place I'll just go with someone who knows how to get there I planned on doing some shopping anyway. I went to one of those Holiday Express Toys R Uses and it didn't have any Toy Story stuff that I could find. Then I went to a regular Toys R Us, they had a ton of Toy Story stuff, including Buzz, Woody, RC, and Aliens with CoA (no Rex). They had the "less good" Bucket O Soldiers.

Then I went to the mall, and another Holiday Express Toys R Us within the mall and not a lot of Toy Story toys, but they did have the "less good" Bucket.

THEN I went to the Disney Store completely not expecting to find anything. I'm looking at their stuff, they had cool plushes of Hamm, Wheezy, and an Alien, along with the CoA toys (all of 'em, including Rex), and I'm looking along the wall and there was on Bucket left... the good one with the CoA! So here are some pics:

First shot is how they appear in the movie right before Andy's mom steps on the one in front :



*EDIT* comparison pics of the Soldiers later in the thread!

[slave2moonlight]

Great stuff! And thanks for the location info.

[MrIncredible]

Stopped by the Disney Store, all I saw was the generic Toy Story packaged ones, none of the Toy Story Collection, went down the hall to Toys 'R' Us, they had a huge display right next to the entrance with all of the proper collection. Will probably stop by and pick up some of them soon.

[ajmrowland]

Yep, I'm so getting something for Christmas!

[rexcrk]

Ok, so we know that Mr. Potato Head and Hamm are supposed to be out around Black Friday, and that Jessie's planned for sometime next year... any other news of different characters being made?

[magicalwands]

It would be amazing if Buzz and Woody were on sale. Let's hope on Black Friday they will be 20 bucks or less for each! I mean, they can't be 50 bucks forever....right?

Also, I went to the Disney Store today and I saw two Bucket O Soldiers but it didn't say Bucket O Soldiers. The side of the bucket from what I saw said "Seau de Soldiers"! I should have asked an employee to take it off a shelf so I could look at it, but I would feel really bad if I ended up not buying them.
