Story Collection Appraisal

Collection of Disney/Pixar Toy Story Promotional Items

This collection includes three distinct promotional items related to the Disney/Pixar 'Toy Story' franchise, likely released around the time of the movies' premieres given the 'NOW PLAYING IN THEATERS' text. The primary items are two 'Minute Maid' branded squeeze bottles featuring characters Rex and Woody. The 'Rex Squeeze Bottle' features a green molded plastic head of the dinosaur character Rex, designed to fit atop a beverage bottle. The packaging is light blue cardboard with a window to display Rex, and it prominently displays 'Minute Maid' and 'Disney's Toy Story' branding. Similar in design, the 'Woody Squeeze Bottle' features the head of the cowboy character Woody, likely also molded plastic, with a brown hat. Its packaging is identical to Rex's, showcasing the 'Minute Maid' and 'Toy Story' branding in light blue and yellow colors. Both squeeze bottle packages appear to be in good condition, with no visible tears or significant wear, suggesting they are either new old stock or very well-preserved. Also part of the collection is a 'Buzz Lightyear' action figure, housed in a small, predominantly blue and red hexagonal box with a clear plastic window. The box displays 'Buzz' at the top and 'Toy Story 2' at the bottom, indicating its relation to the second film. The Buzz figure is depicted in his iconic white, green, and purple space suit, posed dynamically. This item also appears to be in its original packaging, largely intact though some minor shelf wear might be present on the edges of the cardboard. Additionally, an unboxed PEZ candy dispenser, featuring a green character (possibly an alien from Toy Story or another franchise figure) wrapped in clear plastic, is present. This PEZ dispenser's packaging is green and yellow. The overall condition of all items appears to be good to excellent, largely due to their original packaging. The materials used are primarily plastic for the figures/squeezes and cardboard for the packaging, typical of promotional toys from this era. These items represent a collectible cross-promotion between Disney/Pixar and Minute Maid, and a branded action figure, catering to fans and collectors of 'Toy Story' memorabilia.
