Lotso's Gang are the central antagonists of Toy Story 3. They were an organization of evil toys at Sunnyside Daycare formed and led by Lotso. The gang's primary objective was to keep the toys locked up at the daycare and to prevent them from escaping at all costs, and, in some cases, possibly beat the toys that try to resist, oppose, and help other toys escape, as in the cases of Chuckles the Clown and Chatter Telephone.
At the climax of the film, all the gang members became shocked to realize their leader's true nature and turned on him. After Lotso was finally removed from Sunnyside, the organization likely became defunct, and the other gang members renounced their unhealthy activities, such as gambling. They become friends with all the toys and hail Barbie and Ken as their new leaders. It is likely that they repair all the toys they have beaten, such as Chatter Telephone (and likely befriend him later), and agree to experience the abusive and rough playtime with the toddlers in the Caterpillar Room.
Gang Members[]
Prior to Lotso's removal, the gang consisted of:
- Lotso (leader of the gang; disowned)
- Ken (Lotso's right-hand man; new leader after Lotso was disowned)
- Big Baby (Lotso's chief enforcer)
- Chunk
- Sparks
- Stretch
- Twitch
- Buzz Lightyear (brainwashed in Demo Mode, briefly)
Additionally, Bookworm and the Monkey were affiliated with Lotso and his gang by providing him with a library of instruction manuals and monitoring security cameras at nighttime, respectively.
Background Information[]
- In the Toy Story 3 DVD feature, "Toys!", there was a drawing with an early version of Lotso's gang. One of the members was a unicorn, similar to Buttercup, which was probably removed for being one of Bonnie's toys.
