• Buzz Lightyear Spaceship (2010)

Buzz Lightyear transforms from a movie-accurate Spaceman into a vehicle closely resembling his spaceship from Toy Story fiction. As the other two Disney Label transformers have their respective pilots disappear and reappear in different uniforms during transformation, Buzz Lightyear's figure features a Headmaster-like method; the Buzz Lightyear pilot figure is removed during transformation, and then flipped over to reveal the robot mode head on the other side of him, which is then inserted into the robot body. When the head is inserted it activates an auto-transformation gimmick which causes his waist to pop out from his torso and his wings to extend. He is the first Disney Label figure to not have a "transformerized" robot head, which is just kept as his classic styling from the movies.

Space Rangers don't do Monochrome‎

• Buzz Lightyear Spaceship Cosmic Black (2010)

Buzz Lightyear was redecoed in black, white and gray, in sticking with the Disney Label theme of "monochrome" redecoes recalling the days before cartoons were in color. Despite, you know, Buzz Lightyear's whole gig being that he's the brand-spanking-new, hi-tech modern toy that any other toy would give their moving parts to be, along with the fact that Buzz Lightyear's film was made in an era in which color was prominent. But hey, gotta get the most from every mold, right?

Space Rangers get festive for Christmas‎

• Buzz Lightyear Spaceship Gentei Version (2010)

This Christmas-themed redeco of Buzz was made available through Seven-Eleven's web shop on October 19, and shipped out at some point in December.

Notes

• Unlike previous Disney Label figures, Buzz Lightyear does not feature a distinctive faction. His box and the TakaraTomy website seem to label him as being in a "Toy Story" faction, whereas the toy itself unsurprisingly features a Star Command insignia.
• Frank Todaro voiced Buzz Lightyear in LittleBigPlanet 2's Toy Story Level Kit
• The Rescue Bots episode title To Infinity... And Back is a play on reference to Buzz Lightyear's catchphrase "To Infinity and Beyond".
