Lightyear: 6 Easter Eggs Only Die-Hard Toy Story Fans Noticed
«They're back to finish the mission,» Disney Plus Canada shared on Instagram. «Check out our epic duo Buzz and Sox in Lightyear, streaming only on Disney Plus August 3.» Lightyear is a spinoff that follows the origin story of the iconic Toy Story toy, Buzz Lightyear. Buzz, who is voiced by Evans, sets out on the space adventure of a lifetime with his robot sidekick Sox (voiced by Peter Sohn). The pair set off to help get Buzz back home, but not without encountering an army of ruthless robots commanded by Zurg (James Brolin) who are attempting to steal his fuel source.

Following some clarifications, the film was received well by many lifelong Toy Story tetralogy fans. However, the film also received backlash from many others.
