Introduction:

 

Welcome to my Toy Story 3 guide. This is one of the better movie tie in games I’ve played to date. The controls are simple and intuitive and really bring to mind the Sly Cooper games from PS2. The game is split up into 2 parts, first is a fairly linear story mode and the other (the Toy Box) is like a sandbox game where you run around and complete various missions and search for capsules to upgrade your people and town, etc.. There is nothing too terribly hard but I’ll try to be as in-depth as possible.

 

Step 1 – Play through story mode first.

 

I’ve created a collectible guide for the story mode and it can be found here. You'll need all the collectibles from story mode to open up items and events in the Toy Box mode. In addition to grabbing the collectibles you'll also want to do "No Toy Left Behind", "Space Ranger Elite","True Carny", and "Sneaky Sneaky" on their respective levels. This portion of the game will take 4 - 6 hours depending on skill.

 

 

Step 2 – Now you can work on the "Toy Box" mode.

 

WARNING: One of the Pict-O discs can glitch, found on top of the Hotel, and never spawns. If this happens, then you will also not be able to complete and earn Pict-O-Collector (B), Pict-O-Master (B) or Gold Super Star (G). Unfortunately the only solution is to start a new game.

 

The big focus here is finding all the prize capsules, completing the missions, and doing the tasks to earn gold stars. This is time consuming and some of it will depend on how lucky you are in finding the capsules and completing the tasks for the stars. Expect to be running around for 8 to 10 hours here. Please note to SAVE OFTEN as the game DOES NOT auto save after missions or collecting an item. Anything you don't want to repeat be sure to save right after it. I've got a guide for the star missions here, a guide to the photojournalist missions here and a checklist of all the items here. It seems a lot of people are having problems finding the capsules in the stunt park so I've done a mini-walkthrough of the entire section locating all the capsules and it can be found here.

 

 

Step 3 - Do the Pict-O-Matic challenges.

 

You can do this at any time during your Toy Box playthrough but I'm going to suggest you do this after you have recieved the Western Collector gold star. The reason is once you have all the prize capsules it will make it easier for you to know that you are using the right customization pieces and will save you the headache of thinking your game is glitched because you swear you are using the right items. There are multiple items that look simliar so do yourself a favor and get everything first. I have a guide for the Pict-O-Matic disc locations and the specific mission requirements here. All 40 of these will take a little over an hour to complete if you just run straight through them.

 

Conclusion:

Cleanup anything you may have missed. If you went solo on the collectibles and came up short on a couple, just check the guide linked above and it should be no sweat to find what you are missing. And if you haven't already done it then now is a good time to do Mapnipulator.

 

If you still need more help or want to finish as fast as possible, I have also placed a step by step walkthrough for the entire game here. I wrote this walkthrough for the Xbox 360 version of the game but I have personally verified that all the collectible locations and required missions are the same.

 

Hope you had fun with this great game and if you hated it, well maybe the guide will help make it less painful. Thanks for reading.

 

Special thanks to CrustyDirtDemon on x360a for his advice and helping with the last few collectibles.

Complete level 1. Story related and cannot be missed.

You will unlock this shortly after landing all four army guys by the phone in the basement.

 

Just to be clear level 2 is not the Toy Box level. To get back to the story mode from the Toy Box, just hit start :start: and “Exit to Game Board”. Then pick Andy’s house for level 2.

Finished 'Trash Thrash'

Complete level 7. Story related and cannot be missed.

This trophy unlocks shortly after opening the top of the engine with Jesse and Woody and then tossing a block inside with Buzz.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/468/09.jpgMuffin Massacrehttp://www.ps3trophies.org/images/site/icons/trophy_bronze.png

Finished 'Muffin to Fear'

Complete level 8. Story related and cannot be missed. If you are having trouble with this final boss here is a relatively painless method to take it out:

 

[spoiler=sd8]

Run to the bakery where the muffins are coming from. Just run straight up the hill and take up a position on either side. Turn 180 and start blasting the muffins as they come towards you up the slope. After this first wave some more small muffins and a large one get shot out past you into the street. The reason for running up the hill should now be apparent since the only attack the big muffin has is a shockwave that can't travel up the slope, so just stand there and pick them off again.

 

Repeat as needed until a large wedding cake replaces the bakery. On the next phase, 5 little witches come out so just head over to the new cannon that just beamed up, hop in and blast away. One life bar down.

 

Now a big witch comes out so either step on the warp pad to cross over to the cow launcher or just run over to collect power-ups for ammo or health if you need to. Jump onto the new gun that just showed up and let the cows fly. Second life bar gone.

 

The third life bar is just a repeat of the first and the fourth life bar is just a repeat of the second. On the final life bar, you get both small and large witches at the same time and you need to bounce back and forth between the two guns. Start with laser cannon to thin out the small witches until there are only 2 or 3 so you won't have to deal with all the green bubbles. Then hop on the warp pad to be launched over to the cow cannon and blast away at the large witch. Repeat this pattern until the witch's lifebar is emptied. Also, be sure to run out to grab ammo and health if you need to. The trophy unlocks shortly afterwards. Congrats and end of Story Mode.

Explored all the objects on the map

On the "board game" screen you need to move your crayon over all the objects on the map and press :cross:. Starting from the left:

  • The dice
  • The yellow boat
  • The checkers pieces
  • The fish
  • The cannon
  • The treasure chest
  • The chess piece

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/468/22.jpgWelcome to Townhttp://www.ps3trophies.org/images/site/icons/trophy_bronze.png

Finished the Woody's Roundup tutorials

You need to follow Ham around and complete his first couple of missions. They are “Destroy the old shack”, “Clean up the town” (break 3 more sheds), “Give an alien a hat”, “Paint a building” and finally “Talk to Stinky Pete”. After talking to Pete, you will be able to use a pick. Find the nearest piece of gold and press :square: which will unlock Bullseye at the store and your trophy.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/468/27.jpgFirst Salehttp://www.ps3trophies.org/images/site/icons/trophy_bronze.png

Buy a toy from the Toy Store

Just buy something from the store in toy box mode. The stores are the Al’s Toy Barn Chicken Suit Machines.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/468/29.jpgPict-O-Amateurhttp://www.ps3trophies.org/images/site/icons/trophy_bronze.png

Complete 1 disc of Pict-O-Matic missions

See Pict-O-Matic Master.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/468/30.jpgPict-O-Collectorhttp://www.ps3trophies.org/images/site/icons/trophy_bronze.png

Find all 6 discs of Pict-O-Matic missions

 

GLITCHED

 

These are scattered around like the prize capsules but look like the actual Pict-o-Matic device. The locations can be found here.

 

WARNING: One of the discs can glitch, found on top of the Hotel and never spawns. If this happens, then you will also not be able to complete and earn Pict-O-Master or Gold Super Star. Unfortunately, the only solution is to start a new game.

 

The disc should appear on top of the Hotel (pictured below), after you have purchased it from the store and it has been built. The Hotel will only be available for purchase from the store, after completing "Blow up the Dam" mission.

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/468/31.jpgPict-O-Masterhttp://www.ps3trophies.org/images/site/icons/trophy_bronze.png

Complete all Pict-O-Matic missions

 

GLITCHED

 

You get the Pict-O-Matic device for completing the "Lost and Found" mission given by a cowboy townsperson. Once you have it, you can select it in the list by pressing :left: or :right:. It looks like an old blue gameboy. Then click :square: and you can scroll through all the available missions that you have unlocked so far, there are 40 total. All you have to do is create the "scene" shown in the picture by either making the person at the tailor from the prizes you've found all around or customizing the building with your toolbox to match. The thing to note is that sometimes it does not have to be an exact match. For example, it might show the background as a grassy field but you don't need to be in the grassy field, you just need to create the person(s) or object(s) as shown. Or it might show a brown cow but you can use a white one. One last tip, if you see a big curved arrow overhead that means you need to throw the person(s) in that specific building. I have a guide here.

Hit 15 Paratrooper targets

In order to unlock these missions you need to first purchase the paratroopers from the store for $1500. Now as you are walking around you'll see a couple of green circles with stars and downward facing arrows on various high places. That's where you initiate the mission. Pick up your army guy and throw him into the air, then use back and forward on the left stick to adjust the speed and aim for the highlighted target(s) on the ground. You can either land directly on it or press :circle: to drop and try to land that way. Each launch location has multiple targets so keep redoing them and landing at a different target each time. You need 15 landings for the trophy.

Earn a bronze medal in a vehicle challenge

See "First Gold".

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/468/37.jpgFirst Silverhttp://www.ps3trophies.org/images/site/icons/trophy_bronze.png

Earn a silver medal in a vehicle challenge

See "First Gold".

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/468/38.jpgFirst Goldhttp://www.ps3trophies.org/images/site/icons/trophy_bronze.png

Earn a gold medal in a vehicle challenge

An easy way is to purchase Bullseye for $1000 in Woody’s Roundup, then while riding him you’ll find the glowing starting line for Ring Rally Race at the end of the main road in town (if you are at the “T” intersection and facing the clock tower, turn right). The race is a quick run through town and you should be able to get bronze and silver without too much effort (you might actually have to wait at the finish line for bronze). For gold you need to hold down :r2: for the entire race. On this race you need 1:30 to 1:01 for bronze, 1:00 to 0:41 for silver and 0:40 or less for gold. This will require a minimum of 3 races. You have to place in the appropriate time frame for each trophy, meaning you can't win gold and unlock the other 2. If you just can't get gold with Bullseye OR if you get the Winner's Circle gold star and still don't have it, put it off until you unlock the Dragon later. The dragon races are ridiculously easy and you will get it on the first race.

Finished the Prison Break without ever tripping an alarm

This is unlocked for completing the stealth mission (level 6) without being spotted by any lights.

 

[spoiler=sd9]I used this method: Start as Woody and go around and hit the switch to release Jesse. Switch to Jesse, and then push the red basket straight out of the hole to the wall. Hop up and hang to find out where Buzz is. Once it's clear, move to the top of the nearest table and then through the gate spotlights. Move up the darts and wall jump to the top avoiding the red light. Head right and tap the switch. Now head left and jump to the wall. Shimmy to the end and prepare to jump. Even though it looks like the light will see you it won't. Now quickly while the light moves along the bottom toward you leap over it, and move to the end. By now the other has dropped from the top so leap it quickly and drop down to free Rex.

 

Switch to Woody and head back to the first table. If you need to you can still switch to Buzz to see where he is at, you just can't control him. When the coast is clear, dash to Slinky’s gate spotlights and zip up to the hook. Now double jump past the next hook and latch on to the middle or third one instead to land on the shelf. Move up the wall and over the door to the 4 lights. Watch the pattern, then move to the third light (from left), then second, then to the switch. Now back over the door and down the wall. Jump down to Slinky. Check on Buzz and then dash to Ham's gate spotlights. If you need a breather, head to the top of a table. Go through the gate, up the ramp and then zigzag across the platforms to the switch on the top. Hit it and jump to Ham for the finale and trophy.

Reach Zurg's base without losing all your health

This is done on the first part of story mode level 3. Thanks to Hustlinonradio for his input to this trophy which I’ve tweaked below.

 

[spoiler=sd10]I suggest not getting any of the collectibles when you are making this run. The flight section is fairly easy if you just rapidly shoot and remember to press :cross: to dodge left and right plus move up and down to go through the holes. The section after this with the meteor shower is the easiest part of this level since you can just walk in a straight line and you will not be hit. The platforming section after this is the toughest part of the mission and you need to be careful and definitely be on the fragments or else you may fall off.

 

At the first geyser location avoid the fight completely by just jumping into the geyser and skipping to the next section. At the second geyser location, kill the spiders first and be aware that when they die, they send out a shock wave ring that can hurt Buzz, but can be easily dodged by jumping.

 

After killing the spiders, destroy the main crystal and then pound the 2 pieces back into the ground quickly. You can then leap into the geyser again to avoid the fight. The next platforming section is the toughest one yet as the rock fragments are moving. Make sure that you are really careful when jumping to the platforms because even if you are on the edge and get the climbing animation you could still fall because of the constant movement of the platforms. Just take your time and use hover if needed and you should succeed.

 

Finally, on the last area with the third geyser try and rush to accomplish the goal right away before you are overwhelmed. Before destoying the vibrating crystal, walk around and destroy the 4 spiders in the area. Once that is done, destroy the main crystal and there are 5 rock pieces to push back into place. The first 2 can be reached by jumping. So do that to the 2 farthest from the geyser. The other three require you to use the geyser and float to them. While pounding them into place destroy only what you have too and when you put the last one in place quickly rush to the geyser to float away to safety. However, if you are engaging with the enemies, I suggest doing it fast and take advantage of the crystals and the spider robots because these can clear multiple enemies and with the spiders the whole field. Either way, after you jump the last geyser and use your laser on the Zurg turret, fall in the hole and the trophy unlocks.

Rescue all the orphans on the Train

Story related and found in level 1. There are 6 orphans on the train and you will run into them as you progress through the level. They are all in the open along the way and not too hard to find so when you see one just press :square: and Buzz will swoop in to carry them off to safety.

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/468/26.jpgGold Super Starhttp://www.ps3trophies.org/images/site/icons/trophy_gold.png

Collect all the Gold Stars

 

GLITCHED

 

See Pict-O-Collector for details of a glitch that can stop you earning this trophy.

 

There are 103 Gold Stars to collect. There is an in-game list in the pause menu that shows you all of them and checks off the ones you have already completed. Most are self explanatory i.e.: "kill 'X' number of this type of enemy" but some are vague and confusing. This is probably where you will be spending the majority of your time. My suggestion is to play through the game missions and collect all the prize capsules you see because some of the stars will unlock during the course of regular play. Once you are done with the missions, you can just go through and finish the ones you still need to complete. I've got a guide here.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/468/39.jpgPhoto Journalisthttp://www.ps3trophies.org/images/site/icons/trophy_gold.png

Complete all the Toy Camera missions

You get the Camera device while playing through the Toy Box missions. Once it is unlocked at the store, you can buy it for $1000 and then can select it in the list by pressing :left: or :right: to highlight it and press :square: to select it. Missions are given by Wheezy (penguin) and a guy with a baseball hat in the new portion of town that is unlocked after destroying the dam during play. You ONLY need to complete the missions from Wheezy for this to unlock. I've got a guide here.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/468/23.jpgNo swimminghttp://www.ps3trophies.org/images/site/icons/trophy_bronze.png

Blow up the dam and expand your town

The mission is given to you by Ham after you complete the "Mayoral Election" and "Build the Bank" missions. Just go through the gate that opened in town and work your way along the edge to the big pile of dynamite at the end and toss a ball at it.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/468/24.jpgRescue Space Rangerhttp://www.ps3trophies.org/images/site/icons/trophy_silver.png

Save Mayor Hamm from the bandits

The mission is given to you by a townsperson sometime after you complete the "Blow up the Dam" mission. Follow the compass to the bandit hideout and just throw a TNT barrel to destroy the 5 shacks. If you are having problems finding the entrance, from Slinky Dog's Farm facing the Al's Toy Store Chicken Suit Machine, you'll see the stunt track entrance (checkered flag sign) just left of that is a wooden walkway. Follow it all the way around (don't fall), wall jump in the gap, ride the mine cart rail, climb the wall and the bandit gate is on the right.

Defeat Mayor Hamm in the Woody's Roundup boss battle

The mission is initiated after you complete the "Marble Sculptor" mission. If you are having trouble here's how to finish it, first go grab a TNT barrel from the corner of town near the bridge that leads to Zurg's Spaceport. Now move in and watch for the pig ship to open its belly. As soon as it does, toss your barrel into the suction tornado. You have to be quick otherwise it does not get sucked all the way inside. Three barrels and it is mission complete.

Hey... by the way...

 

Is there any way to tell which capsules I haven't gotten yet. Or which area has a certain amount of capsules?

 

I guess what I want to know is... What's the best way to figure out what capsules I'm missing and which ones I have already gotten.

 

Thanks

 

This is the part that sucks. The answer is yes but it's going to take some detective work on your end. Unforutunately there is no in-game checklist. I did make one though and it is based off the various customization selectors for people / aliens / buildings. I've linked the checklist in step 2 of the roadmap above. There are instructions on how to use it at the top of the checklist thread. You are basically going to be scrolling through your in-game items and cross referencing them with what is shown on the checklist. If you don't have a certain item where I say something should be, then you KNOW you are missing that particular capsule. Here's an example:

 

The beginning of the checklist for hats goes like this:

Buzz’s helmet*

Blue bonnet with white polka dots*

Jesse’s hat*

Queen Hat (CP202) - Purple crown

Blue googly eye glasses*

 

Grab a person and throw them into the tailor shop. Go up to the Hats tab and start at the NONE option. Now start clicking to the RIGHT one at a time and checking off the list. If you have just started the game you will have Buzz’s helmet*, Blue bonnet with white polka dots*, Jesse’s hat* and Blue googly eye glasses*. Now you KNOW that you are missing the Queen Hat (CP202) because it falls between the ones that you DO have. You'll also note that I have assigned all the items unique ID tags. In this example it is CP202.

 

Now all you have to do is click on the link to the full walkthru (again in the roadmap or at the top of the checklist thread) and then hold down the "ctrl" key and press the "f" key. This should open the Find toolbar of you internet browser. Now type in CP202 and it will jump to that portion of the guide. Just read that section it jumped to and it will tell you the location of that specific capsule you need.

 

Go ahead and give it a try - I've made this sound way more confusing than it actually is. It should not take more than a couple of minutes do go through and compare the lists. I'm happy to help if you run into trouble.

Hey man... Great Guide... I actually needed some tips on a couple things so this will come in really handy. (and hopefully shaveoff a couple hours on collecting by using the other guide) so Thank You.

Keep up the good work and make sure to update it as you go along with anymore tips. Awesome work

 

Damn that is one thorough guide you got here!

I've yet to get the game yet, but I enjoyed Toy Story 2 so much on the Dreamcast and I've heard some good reviews for this so I'll pick it up soon and make sure to use your fantastic guide :)

 

great guide. covers everything well done sir

 

Thanks guys - I appreciate the feedback. Let me know if you run into any trouble as you play through.

Wow... actually no, your explanation is perfect. That's actually perfect and really helps. Some guides have things out of order but if you cross reference the items that way it makes it super easy to find what your missing.

 

Thanks so much for the help and the answer. Even though I enjoy playing this game, I really don't want to spend 4 hours looking for my last couple collectibles. This will be great to finish things up once I reach that point in my quest for platinum.

Way to go on posting your guides here on PS3T.org!

I used your guides on the sister site and gamefaqs but figured you were a 360 guy only. Glad you are sharing with ps3 brothers!

I couldn't have gotten Western Collector without you brother, thanks!

 

Thanks. I did play through the 360 version first and initially wrote the guides for that version. I was then getting alot of people messaging me over there to post the info here but saw the "We can fend for ourselves" post. I talked to Mendel about it and he said it would be OK. So I got a PS3 copy of the game and added in details that were specific to the PS3 version and here we are. I'm glad they were useful to you.

 

Just want to say a big thank you to you. I found your guides on here and on Games Faq really really helpful.

nicely done :applause:

 

thanks guys

Great guide, it'll definitely help as I'm going to get this game very soon. I have a couple of questions and would appreciate answers.

 

1. When I start toy box mode, what should I do first? The missions? The gold star trophy? or something else?

 

2. What is the best way to get western collector? Get all the other stars first and get the capsules you come across & then use the check-list and guide to find the rest?

 

3. Does the game have stats on which collector cards etc you already have?

 

Thanks

1. Because of the nature of the toy box mode it is very open ended, meaning it really doesnt matter what you do first. The way I approached the game was when I first got to an area I would run around and get all the prize capsules in the area and then talk to everyone who had a mission so they would be added to my "active missions" list. Then I'd just do what ever mission seemed interesting. I would not even bother with going out of your way for the gold star missions because you will complete over half of them just normally playing thru the game. Once you are done with the game missions you can just pop open your list from the pause menu and it will let you know what gold stars you still need to do. So for me the sequence is this, capsules, game missions, gold star missions and finally pict-o-matic missions.

 

2. The best way is to follow my walkthrough on GameFAQs which is linked in the roadmap above. This will get you all the capsules, required missions and gold stars in the fastest time possible. If you follow it to the letter you can easily finish the toy box mode in 8 -10 hours. My best time is 6 hours for 100% completion of toy box mode. If you follow the walkthrough you will not even need to bother with the checklist at all because you will have everything. Understand though that this will completely SPOIL the game because it is very step by step.

 

3. All the collectibles from STORY mode are trackable via the Al's Toy Barn selected from the game board screen with your crayon. You can check the figures you have via the figure display and the cards via the toy shelf. What it shows is all the cards / figures you have collected. That way you can know which ones you have missed (if any) because the cards are broken into sets and numbered. Unfortunately there is no in-game list for the prize capsules in TOY BOX mode. There are only 2 ways to find the ones you are missing, 1) search every inch of the game with a fine tooth comb wasting hours trying to find your missing capsule(s) and not knowing how many there are that are missing or 2) cross reference them with the checklist. It's not the most awesome method in the world but it works and you will actually know which ones and how many you are missing. Then you can search them. Again this whole thing can be avoided by just following the walkthrough but at the cost of spoiling the game.

 

So at the end of the day before you start playing you need to ask yourself "do I want to just rent the game and finish it as fast as possible" then the answer is follow the walkthrough and you will breeze through and be done within 2 - 3 days of casual play. If you are a fan of the series and aren't the type of person who gets annoyed with collectibles then just play through the game doing whatever you like to do. The game really is as long or short as you want it to be.
