Undisputed, that is, until the arrival of Buzz Lightyear, the gadget-packed action figure, who sweeps onto the scene and becomes popular with both Andy and the other toys. Woody becomes so jealous of Buzz that he plots to try and get rid of him--which ends up landing both of them into a mess of trouble.
