First Buzz Lightyear NFT

The Story

Buzz Lightyear first showed up in Toy Story in 1995 as the Space Ranger action figure who did not know he was a toy, a role that anchored four Toy Story films. This VeVe drop pulls from a different corner of the character: the 2022 Lightyear movie, the in-universe origin film the toy was supposedly based on. That is why the sculpts wear the tactical Alpha Suit rather than the classic Toy Story shell, with bulkier plating, mission decals, and a more grounded color palette.

The timing lines up with the film. Lightyear reached theaters in June 2022, and VeVe dropped this first Buzz in August 2022 during Season 4, so the collectible arrived while the movie was still fresh. All three tiers share the same suit and read as a small action set rather than one figure recolored.

The Three Variants

Each tier freezes the Alpha Suit Buzz in a different stance, from a grounded ready pose up to a full mid-flight leap. Scarcity climbs from the Common down to the Ultra Rare, and the pull odds widen fast across the three.

To Infinity and Beyond

Common8,766 editions

Buzz stands at the ready, gazing upward in a clean full-figure pose. This is the entry tier and the source of the set's card art.

I'm Buzz Lightyear, I'm always sure

Rare5,212 editions

A braced, dynamic stance with one arm out, the pose VeVe tied to Buzz on T'Kani Prime. The middle tier of the box.

I'll Take Those Odds

Ultra Rare2,022 editions

Buzz caught in full mid-flight, arms angled and one knee tucked. The scarcest tier, and its 2,022 count nods to the drop year.

Edition Breakdown

Total supply is 16,000 across the three tiers. This was a straight blind box, so you did not pick your variant at open, which is what drives the 1-in-8.07 chase for the Ultra Rare. None of the three tiers show burned editions, so circulation still matches the original mint on all of them, an unusual thing for a set this old.

Market Context

This was a Season 4 Pixar drop timed to the Lightyear film, which keeps it tied to a specific moment rather than the evergreen Toy Story line. The market fee is 8.5 percent. The set now lives on the Collect blockchain after VeVe's migration completed in January 2026, with StackR handling secondary trading since April 2025. Because nothing has been burned, the headline mint counts are still the real circulating counts.

Collector's Note

If you collect Pixar firsts or Lightyear material specifically, this is the anchor piece for the character on VeVe. The Common is the easy, affordable way in and carries the card art. The Ultra Rare "I'll Take Those Odds" is where the value sits, both for the mid-flight pose and the 2,022 edition cap, and it is the one that completes the set. All three trade on the VeVe secondary market and StackR, sometimes below the original box price. New to VeVe? Grab $10 off your first purchase.
