  • "Toy Story 4" is in theaters this summer and fans can expect to see a lot of new toys coming to stores starting this spring.
  • INSIDER received a preview of Mattel's upcoming line of 2019 releases, including its anticipated "Toy Story 4" products.
  • The coolest item we saw was an affordable walking and talking Buzz Lightyear, which will be available this spring for $29.99.

Ahead of the New York Toy Fair, held Saturday through Tuesday at New York City's Javits Center, INSIDER received an early sneak peek at Mattel's most-anticipated releases in 2019. "Toy Story" products will definitely be in high demand with a new sequel out in June. 

One toy in particular got our attention. It's a walking and talking Buzz Lightyear — but more on that in a bit.

Fans young and old will be introduced to a new line of toys featuring Woody, Buzz Lightyear, Bo Peep, and more. In addition to dolls and action figures of Bo Peep, you can expect to see a lot of everyone's favorite space ranger, Buzz. 

One will glow in the dark with his own spaceship, and another one has over 20 phrases to hear, but the coolest one INSIDER was able to see was a prototype of that Buzz Lightyear figure we mentioned above.

Take a look at the walking and talking toy below: 


Once the small switch on Buzz's side is slid to the on position and you press the red button on Buzz's front, stand back and the space man will walk back and forth as it goes through a list of new phrases voiced by Tim Allen.

Among the phrases we heard were: 

  • "10-4, rescue location, the antique store."
  • "The terrain here seems a bit unstable."
  • "Heads up, Buzz Lightyear coming through."
  • "Watch out! Watch out!"
  • "Follow me, Woody's close. I know it." 
  • "Exploring unchartered territory."

For anyone who grew up with "Toy Story," or even younger children who are just being introduced to the character, it's quite something to see the seven-inch action figure moving around on its own. It doesn't have any controls. It just marches forward and back. I was also pretty impressed that the retail price is $29.99. 

Disney and Pixar's "Toy Story" Ultimate Walking Buzz Lightyear will be available this spring. It's recommended for ages 3 and up. 

"Toy Story 4" will be in theaters Friday, June 19, 2019.
