Where Lightyear Flops, This Hoy Toys Buzz Figure Soars

The golden age of Pixar may be over, but collectibles based on the once-great animation studio’s films continue to empty wallets. This week Sideshow Collectibles announced that Buzz Lightyear from his recent solo film Lightyear is getting a deluxe Hot Toys action figure.

Officially called Space Ranger Alpha Buzz Lightyear, this 12″ tall figure sports all the exact details seen in the movie. Everything is accounted for, whether it’s the dome, extending wings, wrist laser, or arm-mounted computer. Even the little robotic kitty companion Sox is included. But what is missing?

Although this figure is $345, there are no LEDs to be found on Buzz’s gear. Usually, Hot Toys finds a way to include some sort of light-up feature somewhere, and it’s odd to see it excluded on such a pricey figure.

Buzz can be pre-ordered now and should arrive sometime between July 2023 and December 2023. By then, will anyone remember that Lightyear came out?
