It would be incredible to see the city, the school, Andy and Bonnie’s neighborhood and the amusement park that inspired the Toy Story films, wouldn’t it? But to the delight of those who prefer to keep everything fantasy and to the sadness of those who wanted to have a taste of living at least a little of those adventures, the filmmakers said they didn’t want anything too realistic. No real locations served as inspiration for the films. Everything was created at Pixar Animation Studios in California.

The gift for fans may not have been inspired by real locations, but it was something just as cool: director Josh Cooley revealed that a part of Toy Story 4 should remain in viewers’ memories for a very special reason: the Second Chance Antiques store. There are hidden several “articles” that have already appeared in previous Pixar films.

The easiest to identify are the Dinoco neon sign (Toy Story and Cars), a painting of Charles Muntz with his dogs (Up), and the famous Pizza Planet truck (Toy Story). But others you only see if you pay close attention: TripleDent Gum posters (A Bug’s Life, The Adventures of André and Wally B.), a sculpture of the hand of Catmull, one of the pioneers of computer graphics, office objects from Ratatouille, furniture from The Incredibles, and Coco props, among other pleasant surprises for animation fans. I’ll have to watch the film again to pay attention to these details!
