Toys that came to life was the basis of the Toy Story movies. These toys became so popular that there were stores and web sites that sold toy story costumes all year round. Wear them with pride at Halloween and special parties.
In 1995 we met Sheriff Woody and fell in love with him. Then Buzz Lightyear entered the scene and tried to replace Woody as the favorite of Andy, the human child. Woody was very jealous and tried hard to get rid of Buzz, however in trying to accomplish this they vanished. Woody and Buzz decide it is best to join together with the goal to get back to Andy before he moves away. They must also evade the dreaded toy killer, Sid Phillips.
Toy Story 3 is yet to be released. The planned released date is June 2010. There are new adventures to be experienced by the toys but it seems that Andy may not be around since he is going to college.
The characters that have costumes available are Sheriff Woody, Buzz Lightyear, Cowgirl Jessie, Rex, Bo Peep, Alien, and the Green Army Man. There are costumes for toddlers, children and adults. You can order accessories separately such as hats, bandanas, and guns.
Most of them are washable as the material is polyester. The package usually comprises of a jumpsuit and then there are optional items like makeup and footwear. As an example for a Buzz Lightyear costume you will receive a jumpsuit, a hood that is detachable, a jet pack, glowsticks, and boot covers. All of these are quite realistic and fun to wear.
The order for Woody will contain a great vest that has an attached star and black satin back. There is a red bandana and a shirt with pearly buttons. The order contains jeans with an elastic back on the waistline and attached to the jeans are a super pair of faux suede chaps. Woody also wears a hat and a belt and holster, which you can buy as options.
If you order the Cowgirl Jessie costume you receive a jumpsuit that has a western belt attached. Then there are the cow-print chaps and cuffs and a cowgirl hat and hair bow in red. If you would like to have her boots you must buy them separately.
Cute little Bo Beep has a pink and blue dress. There are blue bloomers and a hat and staff. The smart little shoes are not included. The outfit should not be washed as there is quite a lot of trim so it should be spot cleaned.
The Alien costume consists of a blue, polyester jumpsuit that closes in the back with Velcro. There is the Pizza Planet logo on the chest of the suit. A foam belt and a poly-foam character mask with 3 eyes, ears and an antenna are part of this zany outfit.
The phenomenal success of these movies has created an incredible market for the toy story costumes. With the new release there are new characters already available. There will probably be more once it is discovered which characters in the new release are popular.
