  The marketing department would have to be pretty incompetent.

  You are the end result of a “would you push the button” prompt where the prompt was “you have unlimited godlike powers but you appear to all and sundry to be an impetuous child” – Zero, 2022

  I remember being annoyed when I was a kid because I couldn't get a Buzz Lightyear exactly like the one shown in the movie.
  
  That's probably for the best, though, given that the toy in the movie had A FREAKIN' LASER on it. 'Cause you know, I totally need a reason to go blind faster than I already am.

  Yeah. The toy that was actually sold was admittedly very similar, but had some differences that drove 6-year-old Autistic Avenue insane.
  
  For one, his wings didn't open the way they did in the movie, and the laser was replaced by an LED that wasn't even very bright.

  ...anyway, I think that's laser as in an actual beam, rather than just a red LED light, which is what the actual toy came with.

  The toy in the movie seemed to have an actual, literal laser, like the kind you might find in a cheap laser pointer.
  
  Of course, giving an actual laser to a bunch of little kids is a bad idea (and also probably expensive in 1995), so the real-life toy had a fake laser that was labeled "LASER" (just like in the movie) but was, in reality, just a red LED that lit up when you pressed the button.

  Touch the cow. Do it now.
  

  I remember it used to annoy me as a kid when toys weren't exactly like the stuff they were based on.
  
  In my case it was Transformers, but still.

  OK for one it's LAZER, and secondly from Woody's dialogue it implies that it may have been just a light.

  Are you talking about what's written on the actual doll?  Because the word is, as a matter of fact, laser.
