How come lightyear toys are the only ones who aren't self aware?

I'm more curious how a transforming toy or combining robot work in Toy Story logic.
Like, I've got a Warp Digivolving Patamon toy, is he squeeky and bubbly until he's unfolded and standing upright as a pillar of justice?
And my Megazord. Do the separate zords have their own minds, and the Megazord takes over when they combine, or do they retain their individuality, or are they five pieces of the hivemind?

It's actually all space toys.

He's a high tech state-of-the-art toy with aggressive personality and backstory programed in. I imagine it's like the concept of how computers in sci-fi are convinced they're human the more advanced they are while lesser versions of androids or whatever are so primitive, they know they're androids. This seems to be a problem with the entire Lightyear toy line up.

Bulleye's personality baked in is from the show. Slinky does not have one, he's an empty vessel with just a functional purpose, much like Hamm and Rex.

Boring answer: This was a concept not meant to be explored outside of the first movie.

Transformer faggot here:

When it comes to gestalts (Combiners) the usual lore is they all have their own separate identities until it is time to merge. Most combiner teams can work together but for some, the linking together of minds is next to impossible so you wind up with a giant robot with out of control mood swings and violent impulses.

So if I have Optimus and whoever he combines with to get wings, Optimus is still fully there, while the other guy is maybe a voice in his head at most.
Where with my Megazords, it's five dinozords or Daizyujin. This helps, though I still wonder how the Ultrazord thinks in comparison.

Do you have a pic of that toy? I would legit want to watch that in a Toy Story movie. From a franchise standpoint, TS3 stalled the franchise.

On a side note, was Tranzitron supposed to be like a combining super robot, like Combattler V or a Brave?

I've always thought it wa sbecause the electronics inside him, like when they factory reset him in 3 other toys don't have that problem because they don't have a "programmed personality"

>Combattler V
Yes, I can see it. I loved Tranzitron.

Sorry, no camera.

>we haven't seen another toy containing electronics to prove this obvious clear reasoning

Explains why the Emperor Zurg toy in 2 acted like the real thing. Can anyone think of another toy in the serious that contained electronics or needed batteries? I don't recall anything at the daycare in 3.

It seemed like the kid opened the packages, set them up, and then left them to play his video game, so they didn't have enough time to activate.

Remember in 1 that Buzz didn't "activate" until a little after Andy put him in his room so he could get back to the party. Despite Andy unwrapping him, taking him out of the package, and carrying him up the steps Buzz didn't know Andy existed.

Every toy seemingly starts out fully believing they are whatever their intended toy is unless if they witness something that makes them understand otherwise. Woody probably thought he was actually a cowboy before one day finding out what a cow actually is and how as a toy he could never actually do his job description.

Counterpoint to the electronics argument, the little green men toys had their entire world based around the claw because that's all they had to work with.

The only electronic toy I remember is RC, and I don't think he showed up after the first.

RC couldn't talk and couldn't move without the remote controller, right?

Toy Story has some strange rules.

>Counterpoint to the electronics argument, the little green men toys had their entire world based around the claw because that's all they had to work with.
So this whole thing is some kind of fucked up Nurture VS Nature argument?

He could, but the controller was taking direct control, I think. I'm pretty sure he moved around in Andy's room.

This is honestly one of the lesser confusions of the Toy Story universe

>Putting Mr. Potato Head's features on a Tortilla allows him to ambulate the tortilla

I'd guess because he's a more advanced toy.

Only time I've known Optimus to combine with other transforming organisms and not just his own accessories, he just turned into Super Optimus. In the Unicron Trilogy and the Bayformers Verse he combines with Jetfire and Jetfire's brain just turns off, for example. In the Bayformers verse Jetfire had to die before he could combine, though.

So yeah

>Mrs. Potato Head's eye doesn't need to be attached to her in order to use it and has a pretty long range

Jetfire was dead. No spark. Optimus just took his parts.

There was that thing in Robots in Disguise where Optimus combines with Ultra Magnus, but Optimus was clearly dominant there. He had a different voice and perhaps a different personality (hard to say), but all of Omega Prime's actions and decisions seemed to be based around what Optimus would do, displaying none of Magnus' selfishness or moral ambiguity.

RiD Optimus is really Dire Convoy, despite Hasbro renaming him.

commentary on how America's military industrial complex brainwashes young servicemen into unflinchingly falling in line with a regime and a philosophy that is fundamentally incompatible with their best interests.

He did. and the clip for the new movie shows him trying to move in a gutter with no additional help.

>Come alive to scar Cid
>Don't come alive to stop the pre school kids or the garbage men
What extreme circumstances are in place for toys to rise up?

You know revealed themselves to the kids they probably be more intrigued than afraid. Sid was a single child at just the right age range of comprehension to freak out.

That being said toys rising up to take the planet would be a nice 10 min short taking place of a dream Andy has

>Warp Digivolving Patamon
Begone, foul beings!

He did, but he was battery powered. Unlike most toys, he just outright couldn't move if his batteries ran out. Electronics just seem to really fuck with toys in these movies.

each zord limb would probably have a mind of their own even when combined, but knowing it being a quick reference who ever is the head or the torso tells everyone else what to do and they sync up with the leader

I assume that each limb of a combiner just inherently knows what to do when they're combined. Like, there's not even a hivemind, each limb is just able to move in-sync because it's what they were created to do. Maybe the head would try to pretend that the combined mech has a different personality, but the limbs could still talk and they'd have to yell at the leg if he got distracted while they were trying to walk.

Like this guy said some combiner teams (read; decepticons) are made up of selfish assholes who hate each other so their resulting gestalt is an unstable idiot.

five pieces of the hivemind sounds cooler.
