List of Toy Story characters

(voiced by Joan Cusack) is a cowgirl doll, and part of the gang. In Toy Story 2, Jessie is very happy to see Woody at first, but is shocked to learn that he still has an owner in Andy. She is initially hesitant to join Andy's toys due to her past experience with her owner Emily, who put her in a charity box for donations after she grew up. This also caused her to develop claustrophobia, due to her fear of being put in storage. When Woody tells her of Andy's sister Molly, she immediately joins the gang. In Toy Story 3, wrongly believing Andy threw her and the other toys out, she argues with Woody, who tells the other toys that Andy was actually putting them in the attic, none of the other toys believe this until Mrs. Potato Head sees (through an eye that she misplaced in a corner in Andy's room) that Andy is looking for his toys and complaining that they are missing. Later in the film, Jessie becomes close with Buzz, especially when he is in Spanish mode. At the end, they dance to the Spanish version of "You've Got a Friend in Me". Jessie is the main protagonist in the 2013 television special Toy Story of Terror!, where she saves the other toys from a toy thief and seller at the rest stop.

Bullseye is an extremely loyal toy and is part of the collection. In the fictional Woody's Roundup television series, Bullseye is portrayed as Woody and Jessie's horse. In Toy Story 2, he was happy to finally see Woody after a long time in storage. Bullseye is shown to loathe fights as he hides in a can when Jessie jumps on Woody. He is also upset at Woody's intention to abandon the Roundup Gang to return to Andy. When Woody decides to return to Andy, it is Bullseye's loyalty that causes Woody to try to get the other Roundup toys to join him. Unlike most of the other toys, Bullseye cannot communicate in anthropomorphic speech but typically remains silent, communicating via body language and occasional sounds resembling a realistic horse (or dog). He is also brave, gentle, sweet and rather sensitive. Bullseye returns in Toy Story 3 as one of the remaining toys in Andy's room and has a small role in Toy Story 4. Bullseye reappears in the short films Hawaiian Vacation, Small Fry, and Partysaurus Rex. At Disney California Adventure, Jessie and her critter friends star in a carousel ride called Jessie's Critter Carousel.

Stinky Pete (commonly known as the Prospector) (voiced by ) is a prospector doll and the main antagonist of the second film. He is a toy modeled after a character on the fictional television show Woody's Roundup, which also includes the characters of Woody, Jessie, and Bullseye. The Prospector had never been opened and was still mint in the box. In contrast to the buffoonish nature of the character on the show, the Prospector is intelligent, ruthless, manipulative, short-tempered, and well-spoken. He openly expresses his hatred for space toys like Buzz Lightyear, whom he angrily blames for causing Woody's Roundup to be cancelled after the launch of RSC Energia/Roscosmos' Sputnik, which made children all over America lose their interest in western toys. The Prospector believes the Roundup Gang should be put on display in a toy museum, and secretly disrupts Woody's escape attempt and frames Jessie for the sabotage. Later, he openly intervenes when Woody asks the Roundup Gang to come home with him, revealing he spent a long time watching other toys be sold before him, hence his willingness to go to Japan. After a final confrontation at the airport, Andy's toys stuff Prospector into a backpack belonging to Amy, an artistic girl who takes him in as her new toy. In one of the films outtakes, he is seen talking to two Barbie dolls in the box, saying that he could probably get them a role in the third film, this outtake was later deleted in the 2019 home media reissue, which media outlets inferred as a result of the Me Too movement.^[30] Prospector appears in Toy Story Mania!, the Disney Parks attraction ride as well as the Toy Box mode of Toy Story 3: The Video Game,^[31] now voiced by Stephen Stanton.

Lots-o'-Huggin' Bear (often shortened to Lotso) (voiced by ) is a plush, pink teddy bear with a Southern accent. He is the main antagonist of the third film. He has a limp from falling off a truck in early years, and uses a wooden toy mallet as an assistive cane (although he is still able to walk without it). Lotso is the ruler of the toys at the Sunnyside Daycare, and initially acts like a kindhearted and wise caretaker, but is eventually revealed to be a ruthless and deceptive prison warden. Lotso, Big Baby, and Chuckles once belonged to a little girl named Daisy, whom Lotso adored. When Daisy fell asleep and accidentally left them at a rest stop, Lotso led the toys on a long journey home, only to discover that Daisy's parents had replaced him with a duplicate. Embittered beyond the point of insanity, Lotso lied to Big Baby that Daisy had replaced all of them, then intimidated Chuckles who knew the truth into silence and forced them both to come with him to Sunnyside. There, he established a totalitarian rule, depriving toys of the Butterfly Room unless they earn it, forbidding them from leaving or escaping back to their owners and ensuring that the only way out is through the trash, which he believes is where all toys are destined. He often assigned new toys to the Caterpillar Room, where destructive toddlers who were too young to properly play with toys threw them and some broke while he and his henchmen reserved themselves in the butterfly room where they were played with properly. When Woody reveals Lotso's true character, all of Lotso's henchmen turn on him and Big Baby throws Lotso in the dumpster. Lotso, seeking revenge, pulls Woody into the dumpster, resulting in Andy's toys jumping in to save him just as the garbage truck arrives. All of them end up at the dump on a conveyor belt leading to an incinerator. Lotso, getting free with Woody and Buzz's help, reaches an emergency stop button, but decides at the last minute to leave the other toys to be burned so that they can't return to Andy. However, his final ploy failed at the last as Andy's toys are saved by the Aliens using a giant claw. Hamm and Slinky wish to avenge themselves on Lotso for his betrayal, but Woody convinces them he isn't worth it, feeling that the dump is where he belongs. Lotso, meanwhile, attempts to escape the dump, but a garbage man (who had owned a Lots-o'-Huggin' Bear during his childhood) finds Lotso and straps him to the grill of his truck as a decoration. Lotso most likely sees Woody and his friends alive on the side of the road, which makes him realize he has failed in preventing them from returning to their owner. Lotso was intended to be in the first film,^[33] but the technology to represent realistic fur was not available until Monsters, Inc.^[34] An early version of Lotso makes a brief appearance in the first film,^[35] and can be seen in the second film during the first Al's Toy Barn commercial. A Lotso bear also makes a cameo appearance in Pixar's film Up.^[35] Ned Beatty was nominated for an MTV Movie Award for Best Villain for his performance as Lotso, and IGN named Lotso the best villain of the summer of 2010.^[36]

Kenneth "Ken" Carlson (voiced by ) is a smooth-talking doll, who falls in love with Barbie at first sight. He lives in Ken's Dreamhouse, a big yellow dollhouse with three stories, a large wardrobe room, and an elevator. His appearance is based on a real Mattel Ken doll from 1988 called Animal Lovin' Ken.^[35] Ken serves as a supporting antagonist for most of the third film, but later reforms. He was originally one of Lotso's henchmen, which caused a temporary strain in his relationship with Barbie. He later turns on Lotso after understanding of his true nature and encourages Lotso's crew to do the same. After Lotso's defeat, he and Barbie renew their relationship and become the new leaders of Sunnyside's toy population, keeping in touch with Bonnie's toys through letters sent home in Bonnie's backpack. He and Barbie later come to visit Bonnie's House in Hawaiian Vacation.

Big Baby (voiced by Woody Smith) is a baby doll with a who carries around a bottle and is adorned with childlike scribbling that resembles ferocious tattoos. He is a supporting antagonist for most of the third film, but later reforms. As a sentient toy, he has the biological traits of a human infant. He normally does not speak, instead communicating through baby sounds, with the exception of one spoken line ("Mama") after the toys escape Sunnyside. He acts as Lotso's assistant and enforcer, who helps guide the new toys around, and punishes them when they misbehave. He, Lotso and Chuckles were all once owned by Daisy before they were left behind. When Lotso found Daisy had replaced him, he lied to Big Baby and Chuckles, telling them that they were replaced, too. They traveled to Sunnyside, and took it over. Once Woody revealed Lotso's true nature, Big Baby realized that Lotso lied to him and throws Lotso in the dumpster. He then helps Ken and Barbie reform Sunnyside, and is last seen wearing a new outfit matching one of Ken's. The baby who provided the voice for Big Baby is named "Woody", according to director Lee Unkrich,^[37] and the film's credits list him as Woody Smith.

Forky (voiced by ) is a sentient plastic spork with googly eyes, pipe cleaner arms and tongue depressor/popsicle stick legs.^[42] He was created by Bonnie, but he does not believe that he is a toy and he hates being able to come to life. He considers himself as trash, and Woody has to prevent him from throwing himself away. While considering names for the character, director Josh Cooley showed a picture of the character to his son and asked for a suggestion on the name. Cooley's son, approximately four years old at the time, suggested the name Fork Face, and Cooley later said "The fact that he's around the same age as Bonnie and didn't know what a spork was, I thought, 'That feels real to me.' So Forky felt like a kid would name him that."^[43] Forky is also the titular protagonist of the series of shorts Forky Asks a Question on Disney+.^[44]

Melephant Brooks (voiced by ), Chairol Burnett (voiced by Carol Burnett), Bitey White (voiced by Betty White), and Carl Reineroceros (voiced by Carl Reiner) are four of Bonnie's old baby toys. They no longer get played with by Bonnie, and thus, are stashed away in her closet. Melephant is a blue elephant, Chairol is a green toddler's chair, Bitey is a teether in the form of a tiger, and Carl is a purple rhinoceros. Each toy has visible damage caused due to wear and tear, with crayon scribbles, scratches, bite marks, and paint wearing away. Each of the four toys' names are puns on their voice actors.

Mr. Anderson (voiced by ) is Bonnie's father. He drives the family RV in Toy Story 4. He appears briefly in Toy Story 3, but does not have any lines, nor is his face clearly seen until Toy Story 4.

Karen Beverly (voiced by )^[45] is a sentient plastic knife with googly eyes and pipe cleaner arms. Like Forky, she was created by Bonnie and initially considers herself as trash. She appears in a mid-credits scene, in which she is introduced by Jessie after Bonnie's first day in first grade. Forky instantly falls in love with her.^[46][47]

Izzy Hawthorne (voiced by and Keira Hairston) is the granddaughter of Alisha, whom Buzz meets in the future as a result of multiple hyper-speed tests. She is the leader of Junior Zap Patrol, a volunteer team of cadets training to become protectors of the nascent society that has taken shape on the planet.

Sox (voiced by ) is a robotic cat and Buzz's personal companion. A gift from Alisha after his first hyper-speed test, Sox is programmed to provide personal and emotional support for Buzz, and is equipped with a number of accessories.

Initially exploring the planet of T'Kani Prime with Buzz and newly recruited Featheringstam, the three of them are forced to abort after learning of the plants hostile life forms. Due to time dilation as a result of Buzz's multiple hyper-speed tests, Alisha dies due to old age and leaves a recording for Buzz, stating she's sorry she won't get to see him finish the mission.
