Toy Story is a beloved franchise that continues to captivate the hearts of fans of all ages. While fans will have to wait until next year for the next installment in the film series, a new product related to the series is set to be a game-changer. While the films aim to suspend disbelief, one of the most beloved characters from the franchise is coming to life in a massive way. Luckily for fans of Toy Story, the new one-of-a-kind product comes just in time for the upcoming holiday season.
The new collectible, sold by Robosen Robotics, brings the iconic Buzz Lightyear to life in a way unlike anything else on the market. The groundbreaking technology has already been responsible for the creation of genuine versions of Transformers characters, Optimus Prime, Megatron, and Grimlock. This foray into the world of Disney & Pixar is a first for the company, but by the looks of this incredible product, Buzz could be the first of many creations. Included below is a product description of the robot from Robosen’s official website which sounds like something light years ahead of its time.
“Buzz Lightyear comes alive with fluid facial expressions and natural walking motion, made possible by advanced servo motors and precise robotics. Every move—from a smile to a heroic stride—feels just like the animated character stepping into reality.”
With every great robot comes a hefty price tag, and Robosen’s Buzz Lightyear is no exception. The product is available now on their official website for a price tag of $599.00. Buzz also comes with app functionality, allowing customers the ability to control its every move and customize every aspect of it. The product also includes the option of advanced creation, which comprises “full customization. Use an expansive library of actions and sounds to script your own Buzz adventures, exploring complex choreography and unique interactions.”
Other Disney Characters Are Prime Options For Robosen Robotics
With the success of Buzz Lightyear, if Robosen Robotics is interested in diving deeper into the world of Disney & Pixar, there are a slew of characters that would be great fits. One of the most obvious examples would be Pixar’s Wall-E. Already a robot, it wouldn’t be too difficult to help bring the futuristic companion to life.
Fans across social media are speculating about what the future for Robosen Robotics could hold, with one X user sparking an idea for another prime franchise to get a robot. They tweeted, “You know, with Robosen doing other IPs besides Transformers. Imagine if they acquired FNAF and made a Glamrock Freddy action figure.” With Five Nights At Freddy’s 2 coming late next year, it could be an opportune time for another holiday season release.
