Here is my complete collection of Toy Story themed Hot Wheels "Character Cars"! These were released between 2010 and 2011 and are sometimes still seen at stores like Kmart or Walgreens. Most of these are easily found on eBay for pretty cheap but others (like Bullseye, Jessie, and Slinky) are a bit harder to track down now and can get quite expensive. There are 17 cars in total.
Note/Update: Eight more Toy Story Hot Wheels Character Cars were released in 2019 with the release of Toy Story 4, making the total number of cars in this collection 25 (see blog post HERE).
Each car represents a character and is brilliantly stylized to capture the feel of that character without any kind of face or body (the only car that completely resembles his movie form is RC, since well, he's already a car). They all have pretty funny names as well—the team at Mattel behind these sure got creative! Check 'em all out below.
From left to right: RC, Chunk ("Turbo Chunk"), Lenny ("Land Speed Lenny"), Lotso ("Lotso Speed"), Stretch ("Speedin' Stretch) and Woody ("Wheelin' Woody")
Slinky ("Dasch N' Dog"), Hamm ("Hamm On Wheels"), Jessie ("Jammin' Jessie"), Zurg ("Zurg GT"), Green Army Man ("Bucket O' Speed") and Bullseye ("Bullseye MHP")
Buzz Lightyear ("Blastin' Buzz"), Rex ("Rex Rider"), Rocky ("Rocky Road") and Pizza Planet Alien ("Little Green Speedster")
Woody version 2 ("Woody Wagon")—added to my collection in 2021. Love how it shows the complete collection of all 17 cars on the back! Happy to say my collection of these Hot Wheels Character Cars is now officially complete.
I definitely recommend tracking these down if possible! It's a really cool set to display and Toy Story fans young and old will get a kick out of the designs.
UPDATE 12/29/21: Here's my YouTube video sharing the complete collection of Toy Story & Toy Story 4 Hot Wheels Character Cars— all 25!
