John Lasseter is taking fans behind-the-scenes of the new Toy Story Definitive toy line in an ongoing Youtube 7 part series and we have the first installment here for you.
I watch this and I am conflicted. I really think that Lasseter is being genuine in his love for these characters and how he was impacted when he saw other children loving them just as “Andy” would have in the movie. That’s very genuine, but I get conflicted when I hear him say “Buy two!!” because thats what he is going to do.
Lasseter is not going to “buy” anything. I guarantee you that the manufacturer of these toys are going to just give him as many of them as he wants.
That part to me sounds a little commercial and trying to sell you on the toys instead of sharing why they made this new toyline (which is obviously to sell, so I want to hear the other side of it) I hope in future installments of this feature he reels it in a little and just talks about the characters and the authentic packaging and stuff. Stop selling it.
