This week I've had tons of fun finally reviewing Mattel's Toy Story 4 "Minis" collection...and it's not over yet! If you missed my previous posts, check out my write-ups on the "Ultimate New Friends 10-Pack", Buzz Lightyear's Star Adventurer Playset and the Terrorantulus Playset. Tonight I'm taking a quick look at this super fun assortment of vehicle packs!
In this assortment, there are six sets featuring vehicles and characters inspired by Toy Story 4 in Mattel's signature mini style: Woody & RV set, the RV & Friends Road Trip set (with exclusive "Runaway Forky"), Bo Peep & Skunkmobile set, Duke Caboom & Stunt Bike set, Bunny & Carnival Rocket set and Buzz Lightyear & Spaceship set. Other than the Runaway Forky in the RV& Friends set, none of the other mini figures are very unique (they're all essentially repacks of previously released minis, unfortunately—just with some slight facial updates). I also have to note that I didn't purchase the Buzz & Spaceship set (since it's almost exactly the same as the one released back in 2017; Buzz's mouth is just painted in black now) or the Woody & RV set (since I opted in for the Road Trip pack with exclusive Forky; the RV vehicles are the same and Woody is basically just THIS version I already have but with the black painted mouth now).
Each vehicle has rolling wheels and can fit one mini inside to ride! The RV & Friends Road trip pack originally retailed for $12.99 and all the other basic vehicle 2-packs were $6.99. Check em' all out down below.
The only vehicle that isn't ever seen in the movie is the "Carnival Rocket" (and Bunny certainly never rode in anything like this)—but I thought it was a fun pack regardless and figured it would go perfect with the other carnival playsets I have. That one was the only one I couldn't find in stores. I actually had to resort to eBay as it isn't even on Amazon! Bunny & Carnival Rocket was definitely the hardest one to find.
Did you pick up these for your Toy Story "Minis" collection?? Let me know all your thoughts down in the comments! If you're a collector of the Toy Story "Minis" line, I'd consider these must-haves.
UPDATE 11/23/24-
Well, my completest mentality got the better of me once again. I did end up getting the 2019 Toy Story 4 minis re-release of Buzz Lightyear and Spaceship, even though it's so similar to the 2017 original release (this 2019 version just has an updated smile).
I also ended up picking up the 2020 Toy Story 25th Anniversary minis re-release of Woody and RC (again, it's basically the same as the 2017 version; Woody just has an updated smile here as well).
Anyway, that's all! I just had to document them here as part of my collection.
