In a world where toys are alive when people aren’t around, Woody, a pull string cowboy toy is the leader of the toys of Andy Davis.  At his birthday party, which has been moved up, since the family is getting ready to move, Andy gets a Buzz Lightyear space ranger toy. Buzz believes he is a real space ranger and not a toy. When Andy can only take one toy on a trip to Pizza Planet, Woody’s efforts to ensure he gets taken results in Buzz accidentally getting knocked out the window, causing the other toys to turn on Woody. Buzz climbs in the car and on the way to Pizza Planet he and Woody fight and end up having to stow away on a delivery truck to try and get back to Andy. However at Pizza Planet they both end up being taken by Andy’s toy abusing neighbor, Sid. While at Sid’s house Buzz learns he is a toy and becomes depressed, until Woody tells him he can have purpose by bringing happiness to Andy as his toy. With the help of Sid’s toys Buzz and Woody escape just in time to reach the truck carrying Andy’s toys but Sid’s dog causes Buzz to be left behind.
