Shark is a side character in Disney•Pixar's Toy Story franchise. He is a squeaky rubber shark toy made of white rubber with blue paint on his back, and is equipped with a squeaker in his mouth. He is usually seen inside Andy's toy box.
Appearances[]
Toy Story[]
In Toy Story, Shark is first seen coming alive after Woody signals to all the toys that it's safe to come out. Shark is next seen talking to Woody an undisclosed amount of time later. When Woody wakes up in the toy box and notices he doesn't have his hat on, Shark mocks Woody while wearing his hat, saying, "Look, I'm Woody! Howdy, howdy, howdy!" Once Woody notices, he takes his hat back, unamused by Shark's joke.
Toy Story Treats[]
In some of the Toy Story Treats, he tells the toys horror stories, while the other toys listen in fear.
Toy Story 2[]
In Toy Story 2, when Andy plays with his toys before leaving for his cowboy camp, he makes Shark one of the death traps set for Bo Peep by Evil Dr. Porkchop, whom Woody must save. During an emergency roll call due to a yard sale, Shark along with the other toys are seen coming out of Andy's toy box. At the end, Wheezy credits Shark for finding him an extra squeaker in the toy box as a replacement for his old, broken squeaker.
Toy Story 3[]
Shark was one of the only toys not seen in the series of home movies at the beginning of Toy Story 3. It is unknown what happened to Shark between Toy Story 2 and 3.
Trivia[]
- Shark's line when pretending to be Woody is a reference to a cowboy-eating vulture in one of Gary Larson's The Far Side daily comic strips from the early 1980s: "Hey, everyone, look at me, I'm a cowboy! Howdy! Howdy! Howdy!"
- In Toy Story 2, Shark's color is changed from blue to gray. It is possible that Shark's paint started to fade out some time between the events from Toy Story to Toy Story 2.
- Shark appeared as an enemy in the Sega Genesis game of Toy Story.
- Shark's model makes him appear unusually long, while also missing a tail. However, the audience would never notice this, as he is almost always peeking out of the toy box.
