The Disney gods answered our prayers and just released the new Toy Story 4 movie; yes the
toy box has re-opened 9 years later.
It’s no secret that Disney Pixar likes to hide easter eggs in their movies in hopes
that we will notice but also in hopes that we won’t.
I’m going to expose some of their hidden gems in today’s list so here is your official
warning: SPOILER ALERT.
With that being said, let’s get started with today’s video: Top 10 Easter Eggs You
Missed In Toy Story 4.
10.
Starting off our list at number 10 is Dinoco Gas.
A real Toy Story fan could never forget that Buzz and Woody got stranded at a gas station
in the first movie.
The Dinoco gas station is the place where Andy’s family car stops for some gasoline
on their way to Pizza Planet.
That’s where Woody and Buzz get stranded as a result of their previous argument, you
know, the one where Woody pushes Buzz out the window.
The gas station appears 3 times in the first movie, once more when a Pizza Planet truck
stops by the station, and another time when a Dinoco tanker truck stops by the station.
It would only make sense that this would be the gas station that found its way into Toy
Story 4 right?
Turns out, you get a glimpse at the gas station sign when Bonnie’s family stops for gas
on their road trip and sure enough, it’s the same Dinoco sign from the original.
The legendary gas station lives on.
9.
At number 9 is the Eggman Moving Company.
This is an easter egg that goes back to Toy Story and Toy Story 2.
The company is the moving company that helps move all the stuff from Andy’s house to
their new house.
You can remember the orange and white truck that had their company logo and slogan saying:
moving the most coast to coast.
This truck was significant to the movie because that’s the truck that takes the toys away
and we see Woody and Buzz finally come together in one heroic scene.
No one would ever forget the legendary moment where they are hanging off the back of the
truck hand in hand.
However, it actually has more meaning than just being a connection to the previous films.
Turns out the Eggman Moving Company was originally based on Pixar production designer Ralph Eggleston.
His login at Pixar is actually The Eggman.
You can spot this moving truck once again in Toy Story 4; we got a quick glimpse of
it parked outside of the Antique Shop.
8.
Sliding into the number 8 spot is the Up Painting.
In the new movie we get introduced to an antique shop which apparently is filled with hidden
easter eggs if you take the time to actually investigate.
But one that stood out was a painting that was hanging in the shop.
The painting is a picture of an older man playing poker with 4 dogs, which is a spinoff
of several different popular paintings that exist in real life.
However, it wasn’t just meant to be a replicate of the famous painting.
If you look closely you’ll notice that the poker players are Charlez Muntz and his dogs
from the Pixar movie Up.
7.
Taking over the number 7 spot is Tri-County RV.
In Toy Story 4 we see Bonnie’s family travel in a Tri-County RV.
This would only stick out to you, if you caught onto the hidden easter eggs in the previous
toy story movies.
We never actually find out where the Toy Story movies take place; it’s never really named.
But, there are references throughout the different movies that it’s in the tri-county area.
In toy story 2 we can see that the airport is named tri-county international airport,
and in toy story 3 we see a sign that says tri-county landfill, which is the dump that
all the toys are being taken too.
So, seeing tri-county written on the back of Bonnie’s RV just indicates that the movies
and place are all in fact connected and in the same location.
But you would’ve had to pay close attention to catch onto it.
6.
In at number 6 is Toy Story Mania.
We see a lot of different things going on in the carnival scenes when Bonnie and her
family wind up at the carnival.
But one thing that was hidden in plain sight was the different toy story attractions and
games that we see.
Turns out, they are replicas from the Toy Story Mania attractions at Disneyland and
Walk Disney World.
Toy Story mania is an interactive 4-D park attraction that lets people interact and game
with toy story characters.
In the movie we see red and white circular targets on the games being played which are
the same from the theme park attractions.
It was a clever way to tie their theme parks into the movie; it’s almost like Bonnie
was at Disneyland, with the actual Buzz and Woody.
Kind of mind blowing.
5.
Half way through the list at number 5 is The Bottle Cap.
Sorry to ruin the movie for you but in toy story 4 we see Woody finally reunite with
Bo Peep, and of course she has her sheep too.
In this scene her sheep are bringing her different items that they find and think they can use.
One of these items was a hidden easter egg and might have caught your attention if you’re
a fan of the Pixar movie Up.
The item is the grape soda cap; this cap was actually from the Up movie and was the cap
that Ellie pinned on Carl’s shirt.
The pin was important in that movie because Carl ends up giving it to Russell at the end
of the movie as a token of his appreciation and friendship.
However, in this new toy story movie Bo Peep could care less about it, but it was still
a fun little easter egg.
4.
Here we are at number 4 with PJ’s Pop.
The big antique shop we see in the movie is called Second Chance Antiques; it’s been
reported to be an easter egg gold mine.
It’s the place where Forky gets stuck and most of the movie takes place in there.
So if you haven’t seen the movie yet, keep your eyes open inside the shop.
Turns out, if you look close enough you will see several vintage signs that say PJ’s
Pop.
This will ring a bell for anyone who watched A Bug’s Life because the same some appeared
on the wall of the bar in that movie.
PJ is the name of the Toy Story director’s son, so the PJ Pop name is also a reference
to the director himself.
3.
Alright guys, at number 3 is Open the pod bay doors.
This one is a more difficult one to catch onto because not everyone would catch onto
the clever little reference.
You know how Buzz has recorded phrases and you can hear them when you press the buttons
on his chest?
Well in toy story 4 , one of the recordings is him saying Open The Pod Bay Doors!
Hearing it you wouldn’t really get what it means since it has nothing to do with the
movie, but apparently it references a totally different movie.
It’s actually a famous line from Stanley Kubrick’s sci-fi film called 2001: A Space
Odyssey.
It’s actually a very iconic moment in movie history, but you would only catch onto this
Easter egg if you’ve seen the 1968 movie…which we can assume most children have not.
2.
In the number 2 spot is Woody Pretends to be Mickey Mouse Phone.
There’s a sentence I never thought I’d say.
This is another easter egg that would go wayyy over a kids head, but anyone who’s around
35 or older will get a chuckle out of it.
There’s a moment in the movie when Woody pretends to be a phone in the antique store.
Woody strikes a pose with him holding the receiver of an old touchtone phone.
The pose is significant because it’s meant to look like the classic mickey mouse phone
that was an iconic phone in many homes during the 1970’s and 80’s.
It fit in perfectly with the antique shop seeing as that’s the only place you’d
find one of those phones nowadays.
1.
Taking our number 1 spot is the Pixar Address.
I was first shocked to hear that they would put this in the movie but even more shocked
that they would admit it to the world and dispose what was supposed to be a HIDDEN easter
egg.
This antique shop I keep talking about shows its address in the new movie which is street
number 1200.
Apparently this wasn’t just a random selection; it’s actually the address of Pixar Animation
Studio’s Headquarters.
Yep, their address is 1200 Park Avenue in Emeryville, California.
I guess a simple google search would provide this information, but still a clever way of
tying in the studio with the movie.
Alright guys, there’s our list for today.
Let me know if you caught onto any of these and fill me in on the ones that I missed.
Also give the video a thumbs up button if you’re a toy story fan, where are my 90s
babies at?!
In the meantime, let’s check out some comments from some of my other videos.

Lori Eakin says: I would love to see a shining continuance story.

Shameless plug.
Slash steven says: I don’t like free money - - what?!

I mean once in a while it wouldn’t be so bad.
Nicole Futrell says: hey joss, I’m a BIG Stephen king fan.
I’m going to read the book again before the movie.
Hope it lives up to it !! - - I won’t be reading the book because I’m lazy but I
love Stephen king too and I’m pumped for the movie.
Okay guys, that’s all I got.
If you want to keep watching more beyond the screen videos simply stay on this screen,
seriously, that’s it.
