The Disney Store just released a walking, talking Buzz Lightyear Robot, but you can only get it here
This is an intergalactic emergency: A real-life Buzz Lightyear Robot has been released, and you don’t even need to be named Andy to get it.
Disney and Pixar have joined forces with Robosen Robotics to launch a first-of-its-kind, controllable and programmable Buzz Lightyear Space Ranger Robotic Action Figure on Friday, Oct. 18 for $599 at select Disney Store locations and online at DisneyStore.com.

$599
For anyone who grew up with “Toy Story” and wanted to be a Star Commander like their favorite white and green-clad space ranger on screen, this toy robot rollout is a total dream come true.
Weighing in at 3.7 pounds and just under 15 inches tall in stature, the fan-favorite robotic action figure is packed with over 3,000 parts, including 23 servo motors and 75 microchips to help make it more lifelike.
According to Robosen, advanced voice and app control features let users — young and old — guide Buzz through iconic missions and scenes. Plus, the company says that since he is “equipped with innovative micro-servos that enable first-ever realistic eye and mouth movement,” Buzz defies his “plaything” status to go to infinity and beyond with a “groundbreaking robotic experience.”
The design squadrons at Robosen, Disney and Pixar have teased more technology innovations and app/studio integrations to come with Buzz Lightyear later this year. But you’ll want to get your hands on the robot as soon as you can because sales are expected to skyrocket ahead of the holiday shopping season.
If you pre-order now, you can expect your robot to ship around Nov. 11, but you’ll be notified via email with status updates.
Pre-order Robosen Robotics’ new Buzz Lightyear Robot at the Disney Store for $599 here.
