Buzz Lightyear (Fanmade)

Buzz Lightyear is a fictional character in Pixar's Toy Story franchise. He is a toy Space Ranger superhero according to the movies and an action figure in the franchise. Along with Sheriff Woody, he is one of the two lead characters in all four Toy Story movies. He also appeared in the movie Buzz Lightyear of Star Command: The Adventure Begins and the television series spin-off Buzz Lightyear of Star Command.

Buzz Lightyear is voiced by Tim Allen in the Toy Story films, a few video games, and the Buzz Lightyear movie, while Patrick Warburton provides the voice for the TV series.

History in the Parade
Buzz Lightyear, the fearless Space Ranger from the beloved Toy Story trilogy, made his Parade debut in 2008, alongside fellow debutantes Smurf and Horton the Elephant. The larger-than-life hero measured 67.7-feet long, 39.9-feet wide and 34.3-feet tall. On Thanksgiving Day, Buzz was ready for the adventure with his jet pack guiding him down the route. From his green and purple space boots all the way up to his protective helmet, which is 17-feet in diameter, Buzz Lightyear became the second balloon in Parade history to use a clear material, following the previous year's Abby Cadabby balloon.

The same year the balloon debuted, John Lasseter, director of the Toy Story films, helped man the balloon en route to 34th Street in both 2010 and 2008. Buzz would fly to infinity and beyond for six consecutive appearances, before retiring shortly after the 2013 Parade. Despite the balloon's retirement, it would make a final appearance at the 2015 D23 Expo, where he was displayed outside of the Anaheim Convention Center. The Buzz Lightyear balloon has not been seen since this appearance. With the franchise's conclusion after Toy Story 4, and no further sequels announced, it is unlikely this balloon will make another appearance anywhere ever again.
