It's funny how others stare in wonder and admiration at Buzz, as if he were actually a visitor from space, given his impressive new status as Andy's big new toy. This helps cement him as Andy's bedroom celebrity and feeds his illusion of being a Space Ranger.
live a lie
"Years of wasted training in the gym."
After seeing Buzz as the stoic and cool space hero for most of the first onetoy storymovie, it's quite funny to see how he suddenly collapses upon learning he's just a toy. However, he still has a hard time separating reality from what was in his head.
As he breaks down and begins to regret his situation, he talks about all the wasted time he wasted training to be a space ranger just to be a toy. It doesn't occur to him that he probably never trained as a space ranger.
life as a toy
"Andy's house. Sid's house. What's the difference?"
Though Buzz has a hard time accepting the truth at first, the revelation that he is a toy is the start of a new journey for him, and a much more fulfilling one. Of course, he doesn't see it that way at first and doesn't understand the importance of being a toy.
When Woody tries to get Buzz's spirit back to escape from Sid's room, Buzz admits that he doesn't see a difference which child it belongs to. It's a moment of defeat for the hero as he sees a futility in his new existence, but it's also the moment he realizes he means something to Andy.
Buzz meets buzz
"Am I that fat?"
toy story 2He finds that Buzz fully accepts his role as a toy, but even he is surprised to find an aisle full of Buzz Lightyear action figures at Al's Toy Barn. And in an amusing moment of self-reflection, he looks at one of the identical toys and is dismayed to realize that it really does look like it.

After seeing him consumed by his Space Ranger identity, it was a lot of fun to see Buzz as a more down-to-earth character who would have a relatable moment like this.
back to normal
"Yes, I'm back... where was I?"
Buzz is an essential partfrom the Toy Story gear, who acts as a leader for the others, especially when Woody isn't around. Then it becomes an interesting dynamic when the system is rebooted by BuzzToy Story 3and the toys can no longer rely on their friend.
After reverting to his Space Ranger mode, he is accidentally turned into Spanish by the toys. Buzz finally gets his old self back and Jessie hugs him and welcomes him back. Buzz accepts the admiration but admits he has no idea where he supposedly went.
Teezeit
"You see the hat! I'm Mrs Nezbit!'
After discovering that it is actually a toy while trapped in Sid's house, Buzz is spotted by Sid's sister, who adds it to her share of the tea. He dresses him up in a cute summer hat and calls him Mrs. Nezbit, which certainly doesn't help Buzz with his identity crisis.
Woody eventually finds Buzz and tries to get him out of there, but he loses control. He finally responds, pointing to his new hat and telling Woody that he is actually Mrs. Nezbit now. Having seen Buzz as a controlled hero throughout the film, it's hilarious and surprising to see him break down like this.
feel offended
"You're making fun of me, right?"

safety first
"My eyeballs could have been sucked out of their sockets!"
While it was fun to see Buzz as a character coming to terms with the fact that he's a toy, his pretense that he's a space ranger made for some funny moments. Woody's reaction to those moments was particularly funny.
After the two toys fight, Woody opens Buzz's helmet. Buzz immediately doubles up, gasping and clutching his throat while Woody casually looks on. Buzz eventually realizes that the air is breathable, but that doesn't stop him from lecturing Woody on the dangers of opening an astronaut's helmet.
Question Sid's experience

Out to save the day
"We have a friend in need and we will not rest until he is safely in Andy's room."

After all the good friends that Woody and Buzz have been through together, it's a bittersweet moment when they finally go their separate ways. However, it's clear that while Buzz is sad that his friend is gone, he's happy that Woody has found a new purpose.
As the other toys watch as Woody is left behind, one of them asks if Woody is a lost toy. With pride in his voice, Buzz replies, "He's not lost. Not anymore.” It's a sign of their deep friendship that Buzz only wants Woody to be happy.
Prove your point
"He can!"

The two toys fight back and forth, with Woody saying he can't fly and Buzz saying he can. Eventually, Buzz decides to demonstrate it, and surprisingly (and with a bit of luck), he flies into one of the best scenes in the franchise. He falls back on the bed, looks at Woody and announces "Yes!"
a brutal process
"You are a sad and strange little man and you have my pity."
Although Woody is angry at Buzz at first, Buzz just seems confused by Woody. His optimistic and heroic nature allows him to simply ignore any insults or frustrations that Woody throws at him.
When Woody and Buzz are lost together, Woody takes out his anger on the astronaut. After the epic tirade, Buzz simply looks at Woody and says, "You're an oddly sad little man and you have my pity." Never has a burn been so polite.

"To infinity and beyond!"
It's hard to even think of Buzz Lightyear without thinking of his most famous line. "To infinity and beyond," says Buzz when attempting one of his epic astronaut feats, and it sums up the character perfectly.
The phrase itself is a bit absurd and over the top, but it's also hopeful and bold. It also becomes a mantra for Woody and Buzz's friendship, which goes through a lot and endures despite the breakup.
