Playtime Sheriff Woody Review
This is a great Sheriff Woody, although a little on the expensive side. There are only a couple things I find off about him-- first off, I'm not sure if it's Tom Hanks' voice or not-- sometimes it sounds like him, sometimes it doesn't. It's a bit of a surprise, since the similar Blast-Off Buzz quite obviously uses Tim Allen's voice. It's close enough though that I doubt a kid would notice, or particularly care, and he sounds very lively all the same. Second is the way his arms are stitched on; they're at an angle, which makes him look very natural when his arms are down, but makes them difficult to lift up. I'm not sure if the rag doll version is any different, but if your child is more interested in playing with Woody than hearing him talk, you may want to check. Finally, his battery pack (two AAAs) is rather difficult to get to-- it's approximately where his butt is, under several layers of fabric.
Other than those two relatively minor nitpicks, I think this is a great Woody, and looks a lot more accurate to the movie than a lot of other Woody toys out there. Everything looks to be of great quality and durable, including his pull string. His voice box can be turned off too, the switch is pretty easy to get at. And the 'hat recognition' works perfectly, you don't have to jam it on his head or anything.
Overall, if the price tag isn't an issue, I would definitely recommend this Sheriff Woody over all others.

Not Tom Hanks Voice - Destiny Hager -
This is a very neat toy and the kids wil love it regardless, but why couldn't they use Tom Hanks voice. This was so disappointing for me that I just might return it.
Very Durable, Great for kids - danceismylife1 -
My 2 year old brother got this Woody doll a few days ago. So far there is no problems. I have a woody doll from when the first movie came out and when you put the two together there is a big diffrence between the two. I personally think my woody doll looks more like the one from the movie. My brother also cracks up when woody does his phrases as you take the hat off and put it back on. Overall its a good toy for younger kids.
Lots of fun - Juan C. Orsini -
My kid love this Woody doll and he can't stop laughing with the phrases the doll says when he has lost his hat and then found it (my kid keeps taking it of and putting it back on). Very similar to the movie.
