‘Toy Story 3’ Reveals New Characters
Who wants to play?

Over the past few weeks, new characters that will be featured in the upcoming sequel film Toy Story 3 have been revealed and today we learn of a new one. Thus far, there have been 5 characters introduced via promo photos … today’s new character makes 6. Say hello to the half man/half bug action figure named Twitch:

Meet Twitch, the insectaloid warrior, where MAN + INSECT = AWESOME! This sturdy action figure stands over five inches tall, with more than 15 points of articulation, including ferocious chomping mandibles. Use his powerful wings and impenetrable exoskeleton to evade capture! Twitch is meticulously detailed and includes his signature magical battle staff and removable chest armor. For children ages 4 and up. Other insectaloid figures sold separately.

Aww, I like this guy. He deffo looks like an action figure from He-Man and the Masters of the Universe (I mean, he really reminds me of the Buzz-Off character). There are 5 other new characters included in Toy Story 3 — after the jump, you can meet them …

Peas-in-a-Pod will quickly become a parent’s favorite on-the-go toy. The soft, plush pod secures the happy peas inside with a durable metal zipper, making it perfect for the car or stroller. The Peas-in-a-Pod plush toy also develops fine motor skills by catering to a child’s natural grab instinct. Pulling the three peas out of the pod will provide repeated enjoyment for infants and toddlers, and soon they’ll learn to put them back in! Machine washable. Not for human consumption.

Saddle up for fun and let Buttercup lead your child away on a magical adventure! This cuddly unicorn features velvety-soft, snow-colored fur with sparkly gold and pink accents. He sports a signature mythical golden horn and a fun-to-comb mane and tail. Buttercup’s durable plastic eyes are both charming and scratch-resistant. Hypo-allergenic. Ages 3 and up.

Lots-o’-Huggin’ Bear is a jumbo, extra-soft teddy bear with a pink and white plush body and a velvety purple nose. This lovable bear stands fuzzy heads and shoulders above other teddy bears because he smells like sweet strawberries! With a smile that will light up your child’s face and a belly just asking to be hugged, Lots-o’-Huggin’ Bear is sure to become a bedtime necessity. Stain-resistant. Spot clean plush surface with a damp cloth.

Grab your binoculars and join Ken on a safari! A swinging bachelor who’s always on the lookout for fun, Ken sports the perfect outfit for his eco-adventure: light blue shorts and a leopard-print shirt with short sleeves sure to keep him cool in the hot sun. And after his exciting expedition, Ken will be ready to hit the dance floor in style. His accessories include matching scarf, sensible loafers and a fashion-forward gold belt. Dozens of additional Ken outfits sold separately.

Trixie is a perfect playmate for prehistoric playtime! Visit the era when dinosaurs ruled the Earth. Made of rigid, durable plastic in friendly shades of blue and purple. Trixie features an expressive mouth and movable legs. This gentle Triceratops will feed any child’s imagination. Also available, Tyrannosaurus Rex, Stegosaurus and Velociraptor.

Sooo cute!! I loved Toy Story, didn’t really care for Toy Story 2 but this 3rd film looks really cute. The little boy is all grown up and no longer needs his toys … so what are they gonna do? We’ll have to wait until June to find out. What do y’all think of these guys? I LOVE Peas-In-A-Pod … Which one is YOUR fave new character?
