Toy Story Unleashed

Buzz Lightyear and Sheriff Woody as you haven’t seen them before. Reimagined as action figure “badasses” by designer Luis Eduardo Vargas Montoya. No word if these custom-made “toys” will ever be mass produced, but I’ll be first in line if they are.

(Thanks, Andrew Murray)

Neato, mosquito!

But .. shouldn’t the snake be in Sheriff Woody’s BOOT..?

The cowboy is a mix between Sheriff Woody and Lucky Luke….which is pretty cool!
I’m imagining the animated version of this version of these toys. A totally different vibe.

I love stuff like this, it’s always awesomely absurd. :)

Holy shit, THAT is badass.

If they made a TOY STORY movie out of these characters, I’d be the first one in line to see it.

If Rob Liefeld was an animator.

Not enough pouches, over-sized guns, misshapen feet, or outrageous anatomical proportions to be a Rob Liefeld design.

Plus these actually look good.

Don’t forget tiny heads…
But above all, you’re right: they look to good to be a Rob Liefeld design…

Hahaha, sweeet. Love it when people do stuff like this!

I see this leading to a “live-action” Woody and Buzz movie somehow.

 
Daniel Caylor says:

Buzz looks like a painted Starcraft marine.

This re-interpretation is just great, and another sign that we ALL have grown older with the movies.

I wanna see the “extreme” version of my evil counterpart, “Big Al” McWhiggin!

Hey Scott Shaw! The site link in your name is wrong. There’s no hyphen. You’re welcome.
Also, your site is 100 awesome.

Thank you so much for posting these! Detailed, balanced, uncluttered and well made! The artist clearly enjoyed making these.

It’s also just what I needed after accidentally seeing what shouldn’t be seen in a so-called artblog-reblog site.

is it just me or they really make the original toys look so adorable?

Someone needs to do an Evil Emporer Zurg like this. He had such a cool creepy design already. Extremifying it could only lead to amusingly cool results.

 
Ki Innis says:
06/14/11  6:13pm

Now that’s cool!

 
Wesley Louis says:

Never would have thought of this, brilliant!!!

I wonder what Mr. Potato Head would look like?

 
Deran says:

I love how Buzz looks like he just walked off the set of Gears of War.

Now just think of doing Toy Story by the team of Rango. That would be great.

These look awesome! I recently did a little spoof on Woody as well: http://vimeo.com/22645410

Is it bad that I immediately recognized Buzz’s body as a repaint of a Manga Spawn figure from McFarlane toys?

 
Steve Segal says:
06/15/11  9:24am

Oh, so that’s where the idea for Cowboys & Aliens came from.

Reimagined Toy Story characters…. good
Reimagined Looney Tunes characters… bad

(As far as i have read in this blog)

Buzz is just a manga spawn repaint with some kluged elements from other toys. C’mon.

Somebody contact Todd McFarlane – he has the money, the people and the lawyers.

The Pixar people have been biting the hand that feeds them practically from the get-out. I think they would go for this.

 
Ross says:
06/17/11  3:38pm

He’ll only get them produced if he doesn’t get sued by McFarlane for kitbashing their stuff.

Makes me wonder what kind of awesomely-proportioned houri Bo Peep would look like.
