Combat Carl

Combat Carl is Sid's G.I. Joe type action figure in Toy Story. He, like so many others, was blown to pieces in Sid's back yard.

A Combat Carl was first seen when Andy's toys watched Sid blow one up with a M-80 in his backyard. Later, once in Sid's room, Woody spots a lava lamp with two Combat Carl heads and one doll head. Two of Sid's mutant toys also contain Combat Carl parts; Jingle Joe has a Combat Carl Head, while Rockmobile contains a Combat Carl torso. When the Sid's toys show Sid that they are alive, two broken Combat Carls, both all covered in mud, rise up from the ground, awakened by the Frog. One is missing its arms and has a nail through its head, the other has a twisted body and is missing its head.

Combat Carl was seen again in the first part of the Green Army Man Chants video. He was in Andy's room, marching with Andy's Green Army Men.

He will appear in the upcoming Toy Story half-hour special, Toy Story of Terror! and will be voiced by Carl Weathers.
