other children, it is clear to see that Andy has no trouble putting them aside when he has used them to their full capacity. For example, when Andy received Buzz Lightyear as a present, he flings Woody off his bed onto the floor, making space for his pristine action figure. Everything that is related to Woody is replaced with things that resemble Buzz Lightyear, from his bedroom’s wallpaper to the bed sheets. Andy’s new position is now in the storage chest, along with the other
