Al's Toy Barn

Location from Toy Story by Pixar / Disney

A massive toy store owned by the chicken-suited collector Al McWhiggin — the place where Woody was held captive, Buzz met his shelf-mates, and the Woody's Roundup gang was assembled for sale to a Tokyo museum.

Also known as: Al's Toy Barn, Al's

What They Know

• Owned by Al McWhiggin, a toy collector who steals rare toys from yard sales and sells them to museums — his chicken mascot suit is his day job, his collecting is his obsession
• The Buzz Lightyear aisle contains hundreds of identical Buzz figures — a visual confrontation with mass production that shattered Buzz's sense of uniqueness
• Al's office in the back of the store is where the Woody's Roundup collection was stored before planned shipment to a Tokyo museum
• At night, boxed toys are in demo mode — a new Buzz escaped his packaging here and joined the rescue mission still believing he was a real Space Ranger
