Start stocking up on tissues, because Toy Story 4 is going to require a lot of them.
Right after the New England Patriots won the Super Bowl on Sunday, Disney/Pixar aired a preview of the fourth movie in the iconic toys-come-to-life movie series. Tom Hanks returns as Woody the cowboy, with Tim Allen as his spaceman friend Buzz Lightyear.
In the clip, Buzz has traveled far from the toy box, and finds himself on display with some other toys as carnival prizes in a game of skill. The other prizes aren't too thrilled with the competition, but Buzz shuts them down with a well-timed helmet snap.
Fans knew this one was coming. On Thursday, Disney/Pixar tweeted that the sneak peek was coming after the game.
