he LEGO Toy Story theme, introduced in 2010, included sets such as 7590 Woody and Buzz to the Rescue and 7595 Army Men on Patrol, which were inspired by the original "Toy Story" movie released by Pixar in 1995. "Toy Story" is a landmark animated film that follows the adventures of a group of toys that come to life when humans aren't around, focusing on the friendship between Woody, a cowboy doll, and Buzz Lightyear, a space ranger action figure. The film was groundbreaking for its use of computer-generated imagery (CGI) and became a critical and commercial success.
