Disney Releases Unseen Sketches Of Buzz And You Won’t Believe What He Was Called Back Then
It’s has been 25 years since Pixar won the hearts of millions of fans with the release of “Toy Story” in 1995, when Buzz and Woody were respectively voiced by two of our all-time favorite actors Tim Allen and Tom Hanks. To celebrate this silver jubilee, Disney has released some pencil sketches of its beloved astronaut toy Buzz Lightyear that fans have never seen before.

“Buzz is one of our most popular characters, and it’s fascinating to see the different ways that Pixar’s artists imagined him during the evolution of his design,” he said. “Even his name changed over time – from Tempus of Morph to Lunar Larry, to Buzz Lightyear. You can see the LL belt buckle (for Lunar Larry) in a few of these early designs.”

“Pixar revolutionized the art of animation 25 years ago with the release of “Toy Story” and since then has brought us some of the most iconic and unique moments in filmmaking history,” said SVP Disney EMEA Tasia Filippatos.
“Pixar Fest will give fans of all ages the chance to celebrate their favorites through a host of activities and even cast their vote in “The Golden Lamp Awards”. We hope the line-up brings some summer holiday fun and movie magic to homes across the UK,” Filippatos added.
