Made by animation studio Pixar, the Toy Story film franchise has millions of fans around the world, but many who still wonder about a major issue in the plot.
Buzz Lightyear - like the other toys in Andy's room - would go rigid around humans, even though he believed he was a real spaceman and not a toy.
Pixar boss Pete Docter has finally broken his silence on this glaring issue.
Docter revealed the movie's creators have always had "a lot of explanations" on why Buzz went rigid but never went public with them because "nobody cared" enough.

"We went through a lot of discussion on Toy Story, the first one, about like, 'If Buzz doesn't know he's a toy, why does he go rigid when a kid walks in the room?'" Docter told .
"We had a lot of explanations and talk about that, too. And in the end, nobody cared."
Docter added: "I think the short answer is you just have to kind of try to guess where the audience is going to find importance, or at least push their interest there."
The renewed interest in the character comes after Disney announced a Buzz Lightyear prequel.
