If there\u2019s one thing Woody, Buzz Lightyear, and the rest of the Toy Story toys should accept by now, it\u2019s the inevitability of change. Facing the unfamiliar has been a running theme since the first film, all the way back in 1995, when the Tom Hanks-voiced cowboy grappled with the arrival of the Tim Allen-voiced astronaut.<\/p>\n
Most poignantly, the toys have learned some hard lessons about kids growing up and moving on from their childhood possessions.
