This is one of the oldest and best games ever released for the Sega Genesis.
It is one of the few games released from a movie that is actually good and
especially it is actually a very difficult game. I’ve only beaten the entire
game once without cheating, and it was a tough, tough journey. I’m guessing
this FAQ will be fairly useful, as it is a pretty tough game. The graphics in
this game are very good for the Genesis and should be marveled at for such an
old game. I hope you enjoy the FAQ!
The default controls are as follows. You can change to whatever you like
later, but if you don’t change it, it is in this format. You can change it by
pressing the directional button left or right. The first format is this:
A – Jump
B – Whip
C – Jump
And the second format is this:
A – Whip
B – Jump
C – Whip
=-=-=
Items
=-=-=
- Star #1 – This is a star that looks more 3D and spins in a circle. These are
called bonus stars because if you get 200 of them you will go to
the bonus level.
- Cowboy Hat – This is very rare, and these give you an extra try, or basically
and extra life.
- Star #2 – These are the more 2D stars that spin sideways. In the game, they
will be jumping around. They restore one star of health.
- Flag with Hat – These are checkpoints that you will undoubtedly need
throughout the game. When you first get to a checkpoint it
looks like a post, and when you pass through it, the flag
will show, saying that you got the checkpoint.
*** Just a quick note, there is only one difficulty level, and there is no way
to change the difficulty. ***
Here is the bulk of the FAQ of this terrific game. This should help you get
through every part of the game as well as some of the extra parts of the game.
Enjoy!

| -= 6.1 THAT OLD ARMY GAME =- |
+-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-+
Description: Open the bucket of soldiers and then locate the baby monitor and
pass it down to the sergeant’s troops. The toys will then meet
you at the other baby monitor. Good luck and watch out for trains
and planes!!
Objectives: - Open the bucket of soldiers
- Knock down the baby monitor to the soldiers
- Meet at the other baby monitor
From the beginning, head straight forward ignoring the train, and you will hear
a plane come by you. Attack that with your whip and continue until you get to
a bouncy ball with many stars over it. Bounce up and get the stars, then
bounce up to the dresser and knock open the bucket of soldiers. Move forward
and attack the train that is in the way. Get the four stars that is hovering
above as you continue, then you will come to a bouncy ball.
From the bouncy ball, bounce up to the bottom shelf and then use the B blocks
to make your way to the top. The balloons with a question mark hurt you if you
touch them; so whip them from far away to release the bugs. Once you get to
the top you can knock down the baby monitor. Now here you can either finish or
backtrack a bit and get many more stars and such. To backtrack, read on below.
If not, skip the next paragraph.
From the top where you knocked down the bouncy ball, jump left at where there
are two stars and a plane. Hit the plane of course before you do that, and
then jump across the shelf to the dresser to the next shelf. Climb up that
using the B blocks, being careful of the balloons, until you reach the top.
From the top, look left and you will see a cactus hanging, a cowboy hat
hanging, and mysteriously a hook hanging there. Use your whip to jump and hook
on it and swing to the next platform. From there jump across to the next set
of three stars, then follow the two stars downward to the next dresser. Go up
to the top of the dresser, jump to the shelves, climb up to get an extra life.
Then you have two options. You can either jump down and get the eight or so
stars in a row, or you can jump over them and land on the other dresser to get
a health point. Once you are done head back to the top where you knocked down
the baby monitor.
From the top of the shelf with the baby monitor, jump right onto the dresser
picking up some stars along the way. Then jump right again and you will get to
the baby monitor. First level completed!

Description: Help the other toys get to their places before Andy gets to his
bedroom. Rex, Hamm, and Robot need to go into the toy chest. RC
Car and Rocky need to go under the bed and you need to get onto
the bed.
Objectives: - Jump on the air pump to get Rex, Hamm, and Robot in the toy chest
- Free Rocky so that he can free RC Car
- Get onto the bed
You have 150 seconds to complete all of these tasks, and it is plenty of time.
At the start you will be putting Mr. Potato Head into the toy chest. Get the
stars if you so desire and then head right. You will then come upon Hamm, who
is stuck between blocks. Make sure you knock the blocks down that ensures he
goes toward the toy chest. You don’t need to worry about him leaving though,
once he gets to the toy chest he just sits there.
Continue on and you will see Robot going back and forth on a small dresser.
Again, break the blocks on the left side so he goes towards the toy chest, and
then quickly head back, because this time Robot won’t stop so you need to time
it exactly right. Head forward again now, and use the tennis ball to get over
the chair. Then, once you get to another chair, jump to the other side to find
a tennis ball. You can use that to get on the desk to get some stars and free
Rex towards the toy chest. He also doesn’t stop, but he moves considerably
slower.
Now head forward, bouncing along the tennis balls, and you will get to another
table. This time, hit the blocks to free Rocky going to the right. Now you
basically have nothing left to do, Rocky will come down, push the bucket of
toys and the crane will lift it, letting RC Car go underneath the bed, and
Rocky will follow. To finish the level, head to the bed and jump on top. Once
everyone is in their right places, Woody will do the splits, finishing the
level.
Description: Try and keep up with Buzz to show that you are just as good a toy
as him. Hint: Try to swing on the hooks using your pullstring to
cross larger gaps.
The basic premise of this level is to get to the end. The biggest
misunderstanding of this level is that one must keep up with Buzz, which is in
fact impossible, so attempting it would be useless. From the beginning, you
will have to cross large gaps, so be careful in approaching these gaps as there
might be traps set up for you. Here are more step by step instructions.
From the beginning, move forward and cross the first gap to get to the table.
Stop there and wait for the shark to jump up, then jump across to the bookshelf
with two levels. Wait again and time yourself right to jump out of reach of
the shark and onto the ball to bounce across to the next bookshelf. If you are
on the upper level, don’t try and hook on, just jump on the tennis ball but
make sure you wait for the toy to leave the area. Make the leap of faith
across to the next table and you should make it easily.
Jump across to the large table and move until you see a hook. Pass it and you
will come to the edge and see another hook. My suggestion is to wait for the
shark to pass then jump forward and latch onto the hook to make it across. You
will cross a checkpoint right now. Jump across another couple gaps until you
reach more hooks. Again, wait for the second hook, then you’ll have to attach
onto two hooks to make it across. Go across one gap to get to some more hooks
and again wait until the second one so you can hook up to the very quick second
checkpoint.
Jump across more gaps until you reach a very skinny platform. Once you are on
it, jump naturally, not too far, to the hook and move on past the gap. This is
much less of a hassle than the tennis balls but it takes a bit of finesse.
Cross more and more gaps until you get to another hook, which you need to take,
because the bouncy ball is very hard to get to the next platform, where you
will find the next checkpoint. Next jump on the bouncy ball onto the rope, and
climb across that, timing it so you don’t get hit, and jump down. QUICKLY move
and start attacking the helicopter and jump down onto the bouncy ball. From
the bouncy ball you can hook onto the hook and jump across the gap. Almost
done, don’t worry!
Cross several more gaps, avoiding the helicopter by just simply moving forward
and getting to the checkpoint. Eventually you will get to a table with a hook.
You want to start with this hook so you get into a rhythm, as you will be doing
this across 5 hooks. The trick is to realize you don’t have to be perfect,
just time it close and it will work. Once you get across, you will have two
more to cross, a gap to cross, deal with the helicopter by taking each jump one
at a time across those gaps, then go across the hooks to yet another
checkpoint. Maybe I lied earlier...you aren’t really done yet...or are you?
Keep crossing those gaps! Make sure even though it is getting long that you
stay sharp you don’t want to lose a life just by being careless. After 5 jumps
you’ll get to a hook and you can deal with that. A couple more and you’ll deal
with a two-hook jump. Finally a couple gaps later, you get to the end! YAY
congratulations on beating the most boring level ever.
Description: While you are sleeping you have a bad dream about a huge Buzz
Lightyear with real lasers. Try and defeat this illusion to awake from Woody’s
worst nightmare...
“You don’t wanna be in the way when my laser goes off.”
Well well well... your first boss battle! Now most people when they first get
to this boss they freak out because freaking out and using your drawstring
every second will get you killed and FAST. So what you need to do is chill out
and just follow my instructions to defeat this monster.
From the start he will appear on one side of you with several orange orbs
circling him. He will sit there for a little while, fire a laser at you, then
teleport to either the other side or the same side. What you need to do is
start attacking those orbs so you can get a clear shot at him. Make sure you
don’t touch them though, they hurt you as well. Now when he suddenly yells,
“Take That,” that is his signal that he will shoot a laser. All you have to do
is duck. Yes I know, sounds hard, but that’s it, just duck and wait for him to
appear somewhere else.
Once you have successfully knocked off all of his protecting orbs, it is time
to widdle away at his life, or four cowboy hats, whatever you want to call it.
The only time when you can actually hurt him is when he is not flashing. The
only time this occurs is right after his laser and right before he teleports.
He will actually be in the middle of teleporting when you can hit him. One
thing that he will do to hurt you is move closer and closer to you, all you
have to do is hit him to fend him off a little bit even though it doesn’t hurt
him at all. Once you successfully hit him 4 times, that will be the end of
Nightmare Buzz and your first boss! Did I mention collect all the stars?

| -= 6.5 A BUZZ CLIP =- |
+-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-+
Description: Use the RC Car to try and knock Buzz behind the desk. Hint: Keep
the car going by collecting all the power cells that buzz drops.
This is a very difficult level to FAQ you through because it is very difficult
and very time-based. The objective of this is to go around the place and hit
every Buzz icon there is and collect the battery. YOU MUST COLLECT THE
BATTERY. By the way, you must collect the battery. You have to collect
the...battery! Get the point? Good. Now, one thing that I know I did when I
first started was to absolutely panic and go berserk with the driving. Don’t
do that, just calm down and go slowly. Very seldomly in this level is it worth
it to do more than just tap the acceleration to get you in the right direction.
One thing I must warn you about is that if you crash into the wall the car goes
crazy and wastes quite a bit of battery so be careful and drive safely and
carefully...except for hitting people that’s fine with me. You’ll have to
drive through and hit Buzz 10 times, yes I even cringed with you, and this
level is a big pain as all three RC levels are in this game, but they are
necessary to beat it as well. I know you will be frustrated and it will be
tough, but it does get easier with practice. You will know those first four
levels like the back of your hand. Good luck, and stick with it, you can do
it!

| -= 6.6 REVENGE OF THE TOYS =- |
+-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-+
Description: Avoid all the angry toys as you try and help Rex across Andy’s
room. Hint: Remove the blocks to free Rex.
Well, at least it isn’t an RC level right? Yes, that’s right...keep looking at
the positive. I know this is getting tough but stick with it you’ll feel much
better when you beat it all! The main idea with this level is to find a way
for Rex to get to the other end of the level. The only thing holding him back
are blocks, and what you need to do is find a way around them and hit the
blocks down. This level can be done in several ways. You can either risk many
stars and lives and get a bunch of extra stars or you can take it the easy way
and get no extra goodies but stay relatively safe. It’s up to you, so I will
write both ways! How nice of me, yes I know.
NICE WAY
--------
For the first set of blocks, go forward until you get to a place where there
are blocks and a shelf. Go right underneath the Y block and aim upwards to hit
the helicopter. Right away jump up and then jump up again. Keep climbing up,
avoid the balloon, it does hurt you, and when you get to the top, watch out
right away for a helicopter. Jump to the right after it is out of the way and
immediately start attacking so the helicopter doesn’t hit you. Jump up using
the Y blocks and over to the shelf on the right. Avoid every level of the
shelf and fall all the way down. Turn left and you will see Rex, so hit them
blocks and get the first checkpoint and the health.
Next, move forward, hit the train when it is not underneath the Z block, and
use the Z block to jump on the bucket. From the bucket, jump forward onto the
toys jar on the shelf. Jump all the way up and start climbing across the pole.
The thing that usually works for me is to just go straight across and not worry
about the balloons, but the actual strategy is that you should start moving
when it is going back up. Go all the way across, and then jump all the way
down and you should land either next to or behind Rex and you can hit the next
blocks and get the next checkpoint and health.
Move forward and start climbing up the bookshelf using the Y blocks. Watch out
for the airplane coming across the first level, for the Mr. Potato Head on the
third level, and for the other airplane on the top. Make sure you watch the
airplane on top before you jump up, it has some tricky patterns and it’s easy
to get careless. Jump to the right and upwards twice to get the health and
avoiding the airplane if at all possible. Jump right again then to the right
once more to get to the top of the train bookshelf. Drop down from here and
you will see Rex, so knock the blocks down to get him through with a checkpoint
and some health!
Go forward, ignoring all of the shelves, hit the robot, and use the block to
jump over the bucket. Hit the train, and then start climbing the shelf right
next to it using the Y blocks. Careful as you climb and watch out for the
coins coming from above. Once you reach the pig, hit it and resume climbing to
the top. Go to the very top Y block and hit the airplane before jumping onto
the ledge. Jump across and quickly jump on the blocks to avoid the plane.
Keep jumping to the right on the bucket to avoid the train, then jump right
again. Jump down to the right of this multi-level shelf, careful of the plane,
and land on the dresser or past it. Go back a bit and you will see Rex being
held back, hit the toy so Rex can go free then follow him to the end of the
level! That wasn’t so bad was it?
HARD WAY
--------
For the first set of blocks, go forward until you get to a place where there
are blocks and a shelf. Go right underneath the Y block and aim upwards to hit
the helicopter. Right away jump up and then jump up again. Keep climbing up,
avoid the balloon, it does hurt you, and when you get to the top, watch out
right away for a helicopter. Jump to the left and you will land on a dresser
to get three stars. Go back to where you where but this time, jump to the
right after it is out of the way and immediately start attacking so the
helicopter doesn’t hit you. Jump up using the Y blocks and over to the
platform on the left where you will find some health. Go back right across two
gaps to the shelf. Avoid every level of the shelf and fall all the way down.
Turn left and you will see Rex, so hit them blocks and get the first checkpoint
and the health.
Next, move forward, hit the train when it is not underneath the Z block, and
use the Z block to jump on the bucket. From the bucket, jump forward onto the
toys jar on the shelf. Jump all the way up and start climbing across the pole.
The thing that usually works for me is to just go straight across and not worry
about the balloons, but the actual strategy is that you should start moving
when it is going back up. Go all the way across, and then jump all the way
down and you should land either next to or behind Rex and you can hit the next
blocks and get the next checkpoint and health.
Move forward and start climbing up the bookshelf using the Y blocks. Watch out
for the airplane coming across the first level, for the Mr. Potato Head on the
third level, and for the other airplane on the top. Make sure you watch the
airplane on top before you jump up, it has some tricky patterns and it’s easy
to get careless. Jump very carefully to the left avoiding the plane, then jump
up using the Y blocks. Jump to the left again and quickly jump to avoid the
snake. Jump left one last time to get to a pyramid of blocks and a health.
From there, climb up the pyramid and hang onto the pole. Climb all the way
across and jump down several times until you see health underneath you. Get
that if you’d like, and then jump right again then to the right once more to
get to the top of the train bookshelf. Drop down from here and you will see
Rex, so knock the blocks down to get him through with a checkpoint and some
health!
Go backwards a bit, jump on the shelf back on the bucket then forward onto the
higher level of the shelf. Climb up and jump to the dresser, getting your two
extra stars and then jump forward. Hit the robot and use the block to jump over
the bucket. Hit the train, and then start climbing the shelf right next to it
using the Y blocks. Careful as you climb and watch out for the coins coming
from above. Once you reach the pig, hit it and resume climbing to the top. Go
to the very top Y block and hit the airplane before jumping onto the ledge.
Jump across and quickly jump on the blocks to avoid the plane. Keep jumping to
the right on the bucket to avoid the train, then jump right again. Jump down
to the right of this multi-level shelf, careful of the plane, and land on the
dresser or past it. Go back a bit and you will see Rex being held back, hit
the toy so Rex can go free then follow him to the end of the level! That was
pretty bad wasn’t it?

| -= 6.7 RUN REX, RUN! =- |
+-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-+
Description: Ride on Rex to escape from Andy’s room while avoiding the other
toys.
Well, this is a hard level to FAQ...but I will do my best to help you avoid any
traps that are normally going to catch any player who wouldn’t read this. The
main idea behind this is that you are riding on Rex and you have to avoid
everything. Yes, everything, because everything in Andy’s room, except the
furniture and stars, is against you. You will be doing a LOT of jumping, so
get ready! The way I will do this, is that I will give you a strategy for each
enemy you will face, or the ones that will give you trouble anyway. It would
be pointless for me to do a step-by-step because it is so on the fly it is
impossible to do this while reading something and people jump differently so my
jumping strategies wouldn’t work for them. Here goes by order of appearance as
best as I can!
SINGLE/DOUBLE TRAIN – Jump over it! This is the easy one...
HIGH AIRPLANE – Do nothing...even easier!
TRAIN/AIRPLANE COMBINATION – A little tough you have to jump JUST the right
amount as to clear the train but not hit the high airplane, it takes a bit of
practice. Sometimes you can even offset them and jump over the train fast
enough so that you don’t have to avoid the plane.
RACECAR – Ahh yes! This is the most common one that people lose health on and
it really is not that hard, I promise! You will hear it screech before it
comes, but don’t jump right away! Let it come into sight, and then when it
starts going, jump backwards over it. When it stops jump forward over it, then
when it starts up again, jump backwards over it again. It’ll work every time.
LOW AIRPLANE/ARMY MEN – This one is kind of tricky, but this is another attack
that people freak out and don’t think so they get hurt. The low airplane will
come across the screen and then you will hear the army soldier saying, “Move,
move, move!” You will then see them coming out, and as soon as they all come
out then you can jump all the way over them, not before.
Good luck! Practice makes perfect, if anyone has any questions about how to
get past a certain part in it, e-mail me and I will answer as soon as possible
with any help I can give.
Description: Stay out of Buzz’s way as you tire him out.
Ohhhhhhhhh boy! I hate this level, it is your second boss battle and it is
MUCH harder than any level you have been to so far. It will frustrate you
beyond belief and you will most likely break a controller or two in the
process. When you beat him though, you will feel like dancing for joy!
The idea is fairly simple. You are on the ground and Buzz is doing all sorts
of attacks, which I will go over shortly. You will also find that there is a
tire lying around, and you will finally find that hitting him with your whip
won’t do anything. The basic idea is that you must hit the tire into the air
so it lands around Buzz. This needs to be done 4 times in order for you to
beat him. Before we get into strategy, let’s do attacks.
He always does the same attack pattern every time, so when you can master how
to dodge it every time, this will be a piece of cake. He starts with two
charges, he starts at one end of the screen puts his head down and runs.
Simple dodged by jumping at the right time. He will do it from both sides,
then he will stop and say, “To infinity, and beyond!” He will go into a frenzy
and jump up while twirling. This time, however, he follows you around every
where. So you just need to keep on moving and running underneath him when he
does it. It is important to note that when he is spinning, you cannot hit him
at all with the tire, so be patient. Finally, when you get the tire around
him, he will do the same attack, except stars will drop. Unless you want to
start over, don’t go for the stars. You can pick some up as you are running,
but never go for them, you will die and fast.
The best piece of advice I can give you is to stay conservative. Never get too
aggressive if it involves risking your health. Stick with your slow but sure
ways, it will work out in the end. Keep hitting the tire around him and do
your best to get him 4 times before he gets you. If you beat him,
congratulations! If not, keep at it, you’ll get it!

| -= 6.9 FOOD AND DRINK =- |
+-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-+
Description: Try and cross Pizza Planet avoiding the falling food and drink.
Watch out for Buzz bumping into you! Hint: Look out for the kids running after
their paper airplanes.
I actually like this level quite a bit...it is entertaining and definitely a
break considering the last couple levels you have been through. That said, it
is very easy to die on this level, carelessness is an easy way to die, so
though it is easier, you must stay focused throughout the level. Now, you have
probably noticed you aren’t in any position you have been before. Both you and
Buzz are underneath boxes fast food wrappers. Pressing down will put you
underneath the cup and make Buzz stop moving. This is important, because as
soon as you start moving, Buzz will not stop unless you go down, and you will
get hurt if he runs into you.
Start moving forward and go just before you would cross the table and then go
back to let the food rain down. Move on and do the same thing twice more and
you will get to tables with stars. Get as many stars as possible, still
avoiding the food on the tables. After four tables you will get to a pop
machine. You have to time it just right so that when you cross it a can will
not fall on you. Pass another table and another pop machine and you will get
to an open space. You will then shortly see a paper airplane soar by, which is
your signal to duck under your cup. You will pass by several more pop
machines, but the most important thing to do is watch for the kids and to avoid
the kids. There isn’t much more new, you will pass by many pop machines, some
with two cans at once, so you’ll need to be extra careful, and keep moving so
Buzz doesn’t hit you. Stay cautious and alert, and you will eventually get to
the end of one of the easier levels.
Description: Try and find Buzz who has disappeared in the depths of the claw
machine.
This is quite a long level, and has quite a few ways for you to die, but it is
getting to the later part of the game. Officially, you have just entered into
the second half of the game, so be prepared for nothing but hard and harder
levels. Let’s go!
From the start, climb up using the levers and smash the tubes at the top. Be
careful not to get hit by the coins, they do hurt you. Continue on and you
will get to a section with moving blocks. This is not that tricky, but can be
frustrating if you don’t know what to do. Jump onto the lowest one and
whenever you can jump onto the next one up that is blue in color. This block
will start to move inward, right as you are about to fall off jump for the
other side and you should land on another red block. Let it take its course
and when it is about to disappear jump on the next blue one. Wait just like
the last one until it is almost gone, and then jump left and onto the final
block, and you can right away jump up to the ground.
From there, move forward through the stars and use the lever to jump up on the
suspended block. Jump to the next higher block and then onto the ceiling so
you are climbing. Climb all the way left, and jump as hard left as you can and
you will make it. Smash through the two tubes, watching out for the coins
again, and then time it over the open tube. You will soon figure out that you
have to jump between disappearing blue blocks and dodge the coins at the same
time. The best way is to get into a rhythm of some sort to get all the way to
the top. Jump up three blocks to the lever and wait patiently to jump up and
get your first checkpoint!
Time your way through the propeller and stop after you jump up once so it
cannot hit you. Time it VERY carefully and jump up once and duck right away so
you don’t get hit, jump up and repeat, then jump up and watch out for the
exploding cases coming at you. If you got through all that, then jump up the
two blocks and onto the row of red blocks. You will go up the sides, and to
dodge the exploding cases, jump from side to side, and go to the side that is
going to explode next, which is always the left one first. After you pass that
jump up to some more blocks, and then continue forward for a little bit to get
your second checkpoint!
Return back to the red blocks, continuing on is a trap and a dead end with no
reward so go back to the single red blocks. To get up these you will need to
jump very fast to the next one. For the first one, let it sink down then jump
twice to catch it at the top and then continue your way up to the top in the
same fashion. For the last jump, wait for it to sink just a little bit then
jump to avoid hitting the ceiling. Once you land, duck right away to avoid the
bombs going off, then move forward. Jump up by the already fired cases to set
off one more, then climb up on the lever.
Move left, and time it past the blade and duck to avoid getting hit. Jump up
to the block in the same way, ducking in-between each jump. When you get to
the last jump and the block, you almost have to get hit once, so get it over
with and jump on the block up and over onto the pole and climb across to the
ledge. Jump up on the lever to trigger a case, jump up to trigger another,
then jump across. To time this exactly right, jump right when it starts going
down or right before that happens. Jump on the next one and let the last case
trigger, then jump over to the last one and up to the top. Move right and jump
up the three levers, hit the pole, and only jump off the lever when you think
you can jump up and make it through without being hit.
Move left, and jump close to the cases before moving away so you trigger all
five of them and climb up the makeshift stairs. Jump to the right carefully to
avoid running into the propeller blade. The best way to go through this is to
when it is moving upward, and to pretend like you are chasing one single blade,
so you go in between the blades. The second one is easier just run through at
the right time, use the same strategy for the last one as the first one, and
run through to finish the level! Whew, a tough one, but easier than it could
have been.
Description: Rescue all the aliens that are trapped inside the claw machine.
Hint: The quicker you do the level, the more stars you’ll get at the end!
This level is very, very easy if you know where everything is. If you are
getting frustrated or can’t find one of them then this is the place to go.
What I will do is give directions starting from the pit of aliens to each of
the aliens so it is easy to get them back. This is a very unique level,
because you are in first person! No whips or jumping, and nothing can hurt
you. All you can do is go forward, backwards, left and right. You have 180
seconds to get 8 aliens back to the pit. Oh and by the way, take note of the
hint. Good luck and good hunting!
You start out facing the pit, so that’s easy enough. Start first by turning
left and heading down the corridor, then taking the first right you see. You
will get one alien, bring it back, then go back down that same right through
the X door to find another one. Now turn left, go down the corridor to the
end, take the right and go through the door to get to another big room. First,
go straight and the right along the wall to find an alien in a little alcove,
bring him back and then return to the big room. Do the same thing, except when
you reach the corner turn left through the X door, to get another alien. This
time keep going forward through the corridor into another big room. The first
turn on the right side is another pit to drop this alien off.
Turn around from the pit and go straight across to get another alien, drop him
off as usual. Only four more to go, hang in there! Turn around and go up and
to the right to get the next one, bring him back and then turn around. Follow
the right wall around into another corridor to find the last two aliens sitting
in their own corners. Return both of them to finish out the level! That
wasn’t so hard was it?

| -= 6.12 THE CLAW! =- |
+-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-+
Description: Try and stop Sid from picking up Buzz with the claw. Hint: Keep
Buzz safe until Sid has used all his coins up.
Oh boy...this, in my opinion, is by far the hardest level in the game. Many
consider this the final boss, the dreaded claw level with the aliens, so first
and foremost, best of luck! Now, let me set up the situation for you. You are
in the bottom of the claw machine with Buzz. Sid is the kid outside using the
claw trying to pick up Buzz, and you must stop the claw by hitting it when it
has Buzz in its grasp. Now this sounds easy, but the hard part is hitting the
claw. You must whip up the toys to make it hit the claw, like you whipped that
tire around when you fought Buzz earlier. It would be hard enough to do this,
but in-between each time the claw grabs Buzz, it will come down and try to hit
you. Also, there is a cable running through the level, which if it hits you
will hurt you as well.
Now that you know how to hit him, let’s get to the actual strategy. What will
happen is that the claw will scan the bottom of the floor the first two times,
then it will rise to the top and bob up and down for the third time, then four
the fourth and fifth time it will just grab at as soon as it can. You will
notice at the top that there are five coins, and that is five times you must
hit Buzz out of the claw’s grasp! After the bobbing up and down, he will go
for Buzz, so as soon as it descends and grabs him, starting hitting the toys at
him, as that is the easiest time to do it. Keep in mind that he is trying to
move Buzz all the way to the right, so try your best to stop him as soon as
possible. This takes a lot of luck and practice, so keep at it and best of
luck to you, I truly mean it.
Description: Make your way across Sid’s desk but look out for Sid!
This is one of the harder levels where you control just Woody and travel across
several challenges. There are many enemies and many ways for you to hurt
yourself, so be careful and don’t let down after that beast of a level you just
completed.
From the start, head right, avoid the spider and run through the darts from the
ceiling. Jump over the anvil, hit the spider and avoid the spouting of flame,
it is really easy they fall down really slowly. Keep going and avoid the next
one coming out of the beaker, and then jump onto the wire to climb across the
pit. Go straight across and all the fireballs will go right behind you. Jump
off and quickly get ready for two darts that will fall on you by jumping pretty
far into the platform. Jump through the cup and on top of the books to avoid
the spider and then jump back from the books onto another wire to climb on.
Avoid the fireballs again, and jump down at the end.
Move forward, crouch and hit the spider, watch out for the burning cup, and
jump up and latch onto the hooks. There are two of them, and then you will
land on some more wire. This time there are spike balls coming down, so time
yourself in-between each one of them. Jump down right away to hit the spider
and avoid the flaming balls. Jump up on the anvil to launch yourself up to the
first checkpoint! It’s about time I say...
From the checkpoint, move forward and ignore the extra life, you’d have to kill
yourself to get it anyway. Jump down past the hooks and onto the next chain to
climb across, avoiding the fireballs of course. From the end, jump and hook
onto any one of the three hooks and when you land quickly run forward to avoid
the darts. Jump up on the books directly underneath the fireball shooter to
avoid them, then jump up to the next platform and hit the spider. Move across
and then fall down onto the chain and climb across watching out for the spike
balls. Go all the way to the end of the chain, and to get onto the hook, jump
straight off, no directional buttons, and hook over to the over side, it should
work every time. Just jump up and over the scorpion and spider and jump over
the gap to the second checkpoint!
From this checkpoint, you will get to do something weird and new, but a little
tricky as well. Move forward and eventually you will just stop and flop. Sid
will come along with a magnifying glass and fry your head, so you will go into
a frantic rage and end up moving really fast. The only way to cure it is to
get to a bowl of cereal, which is unfortunately past several spike balls. The
way to time yourself through the balls is to quickly press left and right so
you stay put until you really want to go forward. Once you get to the cereal
bowl and dunk your head, you will be back to normal, and you can now move
forward.
Jump across the gap and once again he will come along and set you to flames.
This time you will have to run across an extended set of chain balls and even
some fireballs. Just avoid the fireballs, the chances of them hitting you are
so low, and trying to dodge them will just make you a bigger target. Keep
patient, and run back and forth to time it right, and eventually you will get
to the end after at least 10 spike balls. Once you reach the cereal, go
forward, carefully avoid the last spike, and you have finished the level!!!
Whew, nice work!

| -= 6.14 BATTLE OF THE MUTANT TOYS =- |
+-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-+
Description: Buzz is somewhere in Sid’s room and you have to find him, but keep
moving and look out for.....things...
Alright well, let’s get started. Start moving forward at the beginning, and
jump upward using the two cans sitting there. Hit the spider then jump onto
the chain on the right using the crushed can. Jump off at the other end, hit
the spider, and then time your jump so you don’t hit a falling can onto the
stack of boxes. Time your jump up to the hook so you don’t hit a fireball, but
hook yourself over using that rope to the other side. Jump up on the can and
onto the chain to climb across, watch out for the cans and fireballs that
appear halfway through the chain. Jump down at the end and move on.
Now, you must master the skill of climbing with your draw string. Move forward
and hit the spider and then jump and use the hook to jump to the smaller
platform. Now to your left, you see several hooks slowly going upwards. Yes
you need to hook back and forth across them until you get to the top. While at
first, it sounds tough, but once you get into a rhythm it’s easy. The best way
to describe it is to always hold up and the direction you want to go and to
whip as soon as you release towards the next hook. If you have trouble with
this drop me a line and I can help you out. You will need to do this twice,
once up a staggered one back and forth, and one that is more of a spiral form.
Jump forward and then you can fall all the way down those boxes.
Move forward until you can’t anymore, hitting those spiders or scorpions as
they appear, then move back to the non-crushed cans and jump up on them and
over to the chain. Climb across avoiding the fireball right at the end, then
jump down and hit the scorpion right away. Then, use the hook to jump up to
the box, and then use the climbing technique to climb up those hooks to the
higher platform. Avoid a couple more spiders and then you will have to do a
rather long climbing session, just stay calm and focused and you will get it.
At the top, jump off at the end towards the chain, and then cross it while
watching out for the spike balls. From the end jump and go all the way down
and left as possible. There you will find a checkpoint!
From the checkpoint, go through the myriad of scorpions and spiders quickly but
efficiently, and jump up once you get to a bunch of cans. Jump up and then
left over to the metal platform, then up on the can and left to the wooden
platform. From there, jump and hook right three times and you will land right
next to Buzz! Move right next to Buzz and you will grab onto him. Now the
Mutant Toys will show up, and my suggestion is to ignore the guy on the left,
and just hit B to karate chop the two on the right. Keep moving right and
pressing B until you get to the end.

| -= 6.15 ROLLER BOB =- |
+-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-+
Description: Use Roller Bob to escape across Sid’s house. Oh...watch out for
Scud, Sid’s pet dog.
Well, this is a level that is very reminiscent of Run Rex, Run! You are on
this skateboard with a guy on the front that is propelling you forward, and you
have to dodge many strange attacks that come your way. Again, going through
this level with a walkthrough would be pointless, because it’s hard to pause
every second you will easily lose a lot of life. If you have any questions
don’t hesitate to e-mail me, however. Here are the enemies or attacks
involved.
SINGLE/DOUBLE CAN THROW – From off the screen, cans will start coming at you.
Easy enough by itself, but when combined with Scud or rockets or bombs it can
get rather overlooked, so be sure to pay attention to them!
HIGH/LOW ROCKETS – From behind you, these rockets will fire straight across the
screen at two different levels, one at a jumping height the other at your
ground height. Again, it is pretty simple by itself, but when combined make
sure you time your jumps carefully and really watch and be patient.
SCUD – The big dog that comes up behind you is Scud. All he does really is
shorten your screen, because running into him hurts you, so if you stay in that
upper half you will be okay. Then, of course, the game throws a bunch of other
stuff for you to dodge while the screen is shortened for you...oh joy!
SKULL BOMBS – These come in all amounts and distances. They are just little
circles on the screen that explode when they hit the floor. At first there are
just one or two, but mostly there are fired off in huge and sequential ways.
For example, it could fire off in a line, or back and forth around one point.
That’s all the enemies in the level, there are two checkpoints throughout the
level, so make sure you get those and that you are very careful throughout the
entire level. It is very easy to die here so be patient and stick with it I
know you will be able to make it through, if you have made it this far already
this shouldn’t be too tough.
Description: Drive RC Car back to Andy’s house to pick up Buzz. Hint: You get
two stars for every power cell you collect to keep RC on the move.
I told you the RC levels would come back! This one, however, isn’t nearly as
difficult or challenging as the first one. This is much simpler. You are in a
race format, and you are just driving down a road, accelerating with A, B, or C
and turning left or right. You need to collect power cells to stay moving, and
stay off the grass as it makes you slow down. You will get the hang of this
level very easily, directions are not necessary, and neither is getting all of
the power cells. As a matter of fact, getting half to two-thirds of them would
be quite enough. You will go through several twists and turns, you can make it
continuously accelerating, but the more correct way to do it would be to let up
on the accelerator to carefully make it around each corner. Eventually, you
will make it to the end, you are almost done with the game, keep it up!
+-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-+
| -= 6.17 LIGHT MY FIRE =- |
+-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-+
Description: Keep on racing! Head after the moving van along with Buzz.
You’re getting closer to Andy and the other toys all the time! Hint: Get those
power cells.
In my opinion, this is the last major challenge in the game. This is very
similar to A Buzz Clip, so it has those nasty awkward controls and now it is
even tougher. You must get every power cell you can find, as the battery runs
out extremely quickly. Once you start, the most important thing to do is
follow the stars, because that will lead you in the right directions. Going
back to get missed power cells is VERY tricky, and only if you are confident
you can get it should you go back and get it. Everything here you hit will
make you go crazy and spin out, so be VERY careful. If ever you lose track of
stars, go up. The exit is up so just keep moving upwards. I would recommend
never fully accelerating, coasting works well and keeps you on your toes and
able to react. You will eventually realize there isn’t a whole lot to this
level, and you will complete it! One more to go, hang tight.

| -= 6.18 ROCKET MAN =- |
+-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-+
Description: This is it! The truck is in sight and Andy’s mom’s car is just in
front of it. Reach the car and you are no longer lost toys! GOOD LUCK!
As the description so clearly states, this is it! This is the final level, and
not much of one to be honest with you. You get to drive RC car again, for all
of a second, and Buzz will blast off! Now all you have to do is go up and down
to avoid the cars and the top of trees. The easiest way to go about this is to
go exactly where the stars go. This requires very precise movements, but it is
the last level and you need to pass it using these precise movements so you
don’t get hurt.
Eventually you will get to a HUGE truck, so make sure you go ALL the way up to
the top of it. Once you pass it on the other side, Buzz will start yelling at
you, and that is your cue to go all the way down to the bottom right corner so
you don’t get hit by any tires. If you get squished you automatically lose a
life, so WATCH OUT! Once the truck starts backing off, Buzz will start yelling
again, and you will see the beautiful blue car. Just fly up to the top of it
and coast and eventually you will just drop in automatically. Congratulations!
You have just beaten the game!
This isn’t really a level you go to, but after you collect 200 stars in a
level, you will be taken to a bonus game. It will consist of 9 squares in one
larger square, like a tic tac toe board. Stars will appear on the board and
will count down from 5. You must move your shooter to that star and press A
before it runs out. If you miss, one of the stars on the side will disappear,
and you get three misses or those 5 seconds before the game is over. It is
rather challenging, you need to hit 20 stars, and they get very quick towards
the end. Make sure when you go to a certain place to hit a star you hold the
button, because it will automatically return to the center. If you beat it,
then the number of stars you have left is the number of health that you get
added on.
Ah yes, a video game would not be complete without cheats would they?!
INVINCIBILITY – In the second level, Red Alert, collect seven stars exactly.
Then go inside the treasure chest and duck for several seconds. Eventually,
your health star will spin, indicating you are invincible.
LEVEL SELECT – At the title screen, where you need to press start and Woody is
there, press the following combination:
A, B, R, A, C, A, D, A, B, R, A.
R=right
D=down
Once you press that you will hear Woody say Hot, Hot, Hot! Start the game, and
whenever you think a level is too hard, pause it and press A to complete that
level. And yes it does spell abracadabra!
