Mr Potato Head. Purely for this quote from Toy Story 1:

Mr. Potato Head: How come *you* don't have a laser, Woody?
Woody: It's not a laser. It's...
[sighs in frustration]
Woody: It's a little light bulb that blinks.
Hamm: What's wrong with him?
Mr. Potato Head: Laser envy.

2 tickets if possible.

monkeyfudge

I already love Lots-o'-Huggin' Bear. He has his own great 80s toy commercial and he lives in Sunnyside, which is the name of the place I live too!

/Two tickets is fine.

What an excellent competition!!

Ok for me my favourite character has got to be Mr. Potato Head. He has an amazing sense of humour (Picasso springs to mind, "You uncultured swine!") even though he's always the one that gets broken to pieces!

Would love 4 tickets to see the movie! For Myself, Wife, Daughter and Niece!

Thanks! :D:D

Thor

Mr potato head!! He just cracks me up when all the pieces on his head come flying off!!
4 tickets would be excellent but i dont mind just 2!! Thanks boards.ie, Disney Movies Ireland and Barnardos.

Mr Potato Head! My doppleganger (apparently)
2 pls

oblivious buzz ) I'd love 4 tickets )

6av1n

My favourite has to be Hamm, brings me back to John Ratzenberger in his Cheers days.

4 Tickets would be great for a Mum, Dad and 9 year old Son with a friend (if 3 isn't an option!!)

Fingers Crossed.

Thanks

Twenty10

My favourite toy is Slinky Dog because he reminds me of my slinky toy as a kid! (two tickets please!)

Mr. Presentable

Hamm, for his wisecrack comments and his homage to Cliff Claven

While 4 tix would be nice, 2 would suffice

brogen

I just love the aliens. Their constant surprise and wonder at the outside world, as well as their unwavering love of The Claw (and later Buzz) is hilarious and very cute.

One ticket would make me happy. 2 would make me ecstatic.

Thanks boards.ie!

Prefab Sprouter

Oh The soldiers for the "Bucket of Soldiers". The Recce Mission to see Andy's Presents in Toy story 1 was an absolute Blast (Pardon the pun!). 4 tickets please!

Nevyn

Have been told that my son's favorites are Woody and Buzz as they are both explorers going to places that no one had gone before and cool.
And the little helpful 3 eyes aliens are my daugthers.
Mine would be Rex he's such a considerate dino.

and we would like 4 tickets please.

DJB

Ah, it's got to be Rex - gave me so many laughs from the first 2 films.

Would love 4 tickets so I could bring my 2 nephews to it! If I only brought 1 of them, there'd be war!!!

Cheers!

Buzz: especially for this conversation, the last line makes me laugh out loud every single time:

Buzz: What's going on?
Woody: Nothing that concerns you Space Rangers. Just us toys.
Buzz: I'd better have a look anyway.
[he looks through Lenny the binoculars]
Buzz: Why is that soldier strapped to an explosive device?
Woody: [moves Lenny] That's why. Sid.
Buzz: [seeing a dog] Sure is a hairy fella...
Woody: [re-moving the binoculars] No, no. That's Scud, you idiot. That's Sid.
Buzz: [Sid is laughing maniacally] You mean that happy child?

Three tickets for myself, my partner and my mam, we've had a very hard time lately with a family member passing away and a good laugh would do us all the world of good

bazkennedy

my favourite is mr potato head because every time something happens to the toys, he gets the worst treatment with his body parts rearranged or lost

2 tickets please

IvySlayer

Without a doubt, Rex. I love T-rex's :P Jurassic Park ftw.

He's so stupid and a scardey cat :pac: Wallace Shawn does a great voice. 4 please. Plan on bringing niece along!

monument

Hamm - he just keeps a sense of perspective when everything is going to hell around them: "Oh, I seriously doubt he's getting this kind of mileage" (when Buzz is driving a pizza truck and he's reading the driver's log). And he's quick to jump into action: "You heard of Kung Fu? Well prepare yourself for pork chop!" What's not to love?!

2 tickets please

Murilloinf

Buzzzzzzz defo, he is brilliant.

2 tickets please?!

LeahBaby

My family's favourite character is definetly woody- he's like part of the family!!! He has been my favourite from since I was young, he was my younger brothers favourite since he was a baby and now my baby brother and sister are woody freaks!! i would love to take the three of them to see it with me!!

phoebe!

My favoutire is the Aliens. I giggle EVERY time they say "OOOOOOOOOOOO" or "The Claw is my Master" or....the one I hope I will be saying when you announce the winners........
"I have been Choosen"!!
I would love 4 tickets if possible...Sunday is my nephews birthday and I would be the best auntie EVER if he got to see Toy Story 3 before his friends!!!

Dermo

Favourite charactor has to be Rex: He is so cowardly but has his brave moments

"What if Andy gets another dinosaur? A mean one? I just don't think I can take that kind of rejection!"

"And I'm from Mattel. Well, I'm not really from Mattel, I'm actually from a smaller company that was purchased by Mattel in a leveraged buyout."

Runner up would be the aliens. "OoooooOOOOOOOooooOOOOO"

2 tickets please, but I will take 4 if there are extra going

Joe's fanclub

Rex!!

Reminds me how difficult life could have been for dinosaurs had they
stayed around

"But look at my little arms!! I can't press the fire button and the jump button at the same time!!"

Three tickets please

Would have to be Slinky Dog. I know exactly how he feels have to drag his bottom behind him the whole time and it never catches up!
