Fortnite Toy Story Skins: How to Get Buzz Lightyear and Emperor Zurg


Fortnite’s collaboration with Disney just got a whole lot more nostalgic. After a string of iconic franchise crossovers, Epic Games has brought the world of Toy Story to the Battle Royale island — and yes, that means Buzz Lightyear and Emperor Zurg are now available as playable skins. If you’ve been waiting to go to infinity and beyond on the Chapter 7 map, here’s everything you need to know about the Fortnite Toy Story skins.


When Did the Fortnite Toy Story Skins Release?

The Fortnite Toy Story collab skins officially arrived in the Item Shop on April 10, 2026, at 8 PM ET. This follows the pattern of recent high-profile Disney crossovers, including the Hercules skins that dropped earlier in the season, as Epic Games continues to deepen its partnership with the House of Mouse.

The Toy Story skins will be available for a limited time, rotating out of the Item Shop on April 24, 2026, at 8 PM ET. That gives you a two-week window to grab them — so don’t sleep on it.


How to Get Buzz Lightyear and Zurg Skins in Fortnite

Both the Buzz Lightyear and Emperor Zurg skins are available directly through the Fortnite Item Shop. There are no challenges to complete or Battle Pass tiers to unlock — it’s a straightforward purchase. Here’s how to get them:

  1. Launch Fortnite and head to the Item Shop tab in the main lobby (top navigation bar).
  2. Look for the Toy Story section at the top of the shop, since it’s a featured new release.
  3. If you don’t spot it immediately, use the section menu on the left sidebar and select Toy Story.
  4. Choose either the full Toy Story Bundle or individual items based on what you want.
  5. Confirm you have enough V-Bucks before completing your purchase.
  6. Once purchased, navigate to your Locker to equip your new Toy Story cosmetics.

That’s all there is to it. No special quests, no time-limited challenges — just head to the Item Shop and grab what you want before the window closes on April 24.


All Fortnite Toy Story Cosmetics and Their Prices

The Toy Story collab isn’t limited to just two skins. The full lineup includes pickaxes, back blings, a glider, emotes, a Sidekick pet, Kicks (shoes), and even a car skin. Here’s a complete breakdown of every cosmetic item available:

Cosmetic ItemPrice (V-Bucks)
Toy Story Bundle (all cosmetics)3,400
Buzz Lightyear Skin1,600
Emperor Zurg Skin1,500
Buzz Blastaxe Pickaxe800
Zurg Blastaxe Pickaxe800

Destroy Buzz Emote500
Toy Story Alien Bundle (Alien Sidekick + Kicks)2,000
Alien Shoooooes Kicks1,000
Toy Story Alien Sidekick1,500
Pizza Planet Delivery Truck Car Bundle2,000

Should You Buy the Bundle or Individual Items?

If you want the complete Toy Story experience, the Toy Story Bundle at 3,400 V-Bucks is by far the best value — it includes both character skins, pickaxes, back blings, the glider, and both emotes. Buying those items individually would run you significantly more. For players who only want one specific piece, individual purchases make sense, but the bundle is the smarter pick for fans who want it all.

The Toy Story Alien Bundle and the Pizza Planet Delivery Truck Car Bundle are sold separately and not included in the main 3,400 V-Buck bundle, so keep that in mind if you’re budgeting your V-Bucks.


Buzz Lightyear Skin: What to Expect

The Buzz Lightyear skin brings the iconic Space Ranger to the island in his classic purple-and-white suit. At 1,600 V-Bucks, it’s priced slightly higher than Zurg, which likely reflects his status as the franchise’s lead character. His dedicated back bling options and the Buzz Blastaxe pickaxes make for a complete Space Ranger loadout if you go all in.

The Buzz Lightyear Pickaxe + Microphone variant is a fun nod to the character’s memorable karaoke moment in Toy Story 2, and the To Infinity… Emote is an obvious must-have for any Buzz player.


Emperor Zurg Skin: What to Expect

The Emperor Zurg skin finally gives the Evil Emperor his proper villainous debut in Fortnite. At 1,500 V-Bucks, he’s the more affordable of the two main skins and comes with his own Zurg Blastaxe pickaxe and the Zurg Blaster Pack back bling. The Destroy Buzz Emote is a brilliantly thematic touch that Toy Story fans will immediately appreciate.

Zurg’s dark, armored design will stand out on the battlefield, making him a solid pick even for players who aren’t die-hard Toy Story fans but want a visually imposing look.


The Toy Story Alien Bundle and Pizza Planet Car

Beyond the two main character skins, two additional bundles add some extra Toy Story flavor to the island:

  • Toy Story Alien Bundle (2,000 V-Bucks): Includes the fan-favorite Little Green Men as a Sidekick pet and the Alien Shoooooes Kicks. The Alien Sidekick alone is priced at 1,500 V-Bucks, making the bundle a reasonable deal if you want both.
  • Pizza Planet Delivery Truck Car Bundle (2,000 V-Bucks): If you’ve been looking for a way to cruise around the Chapter 7 map in true Toy Story style, the Pizza Planet delivery truck skin for your vehicle is a standout addition. It’s the kind of cosmetic that makes every squad rotation just a little more entertaining — especially if you and your teammates have been having fun with things like Fortnite’s rideable llamas from the recent April Fools event.

How Long Are the Toy Story Skins Available?

The Fortnite Toy Story skins will leave the Item Shop on April 24, 2026, at 8 PM ET — the same time the shop resets. After that, there’s no confirmed date for their return, and like most collab skins in Fortnite, they may not reappear for months or may cycle back periodically. If you want them, now is the time to act.


Is the Fortnite x Toy Story Collab Worth It?

For Toy Story fans, this is an easy yes. The Buzz Lightyear and Emperor Zurg skins are among the most faithful character recreations Fortnite has produced, and the supporting cosmetics — especially the emotes and pickaxes — add a lot of thematic depth to the package.

Even if you’re not a dedicated Toy Story fan, the Zurg skin’s dark design and the Pizza Planet vehicle bundle offer genuinely strong cosmetic value for players who simply want to stand out on the island. The Item Shop has been packed with quality Disney content this season, and the Toy Story drop is one of the highlights.

For the budget-conscious, the 3,400 V-Buck bundle is the sweet spot. The Alien and Pizza Planet bundles are optional extras that are great for completionists.


Tips for Using Your New Toy Story Skins

Once you’ve unlocked Buzz or Zurg, here are a few ways to get the most out of them:

  • Pair Buzz with the Lightyear Wings Glider for a cohesive Space Ranger look from drop to landing.
  • Use the To Infinity… Emote right after a clutch win — it’s tailor-made for victory royale moments.
  • Equip the Destroy Buzz Emote on Zurg for a hilarious antagonist flex when you eliminate an opponent.
  • The Pizza Planet Delivery Truck pairs perfectly with the Alien Sidekick if you want a full Toy Story-themed squad aesthetic.
  • If you want to make sure you’re getting the most out of every Fortnite session, particularly in performance-heavy Chapter 7 Season 2, 8BitToast has a roundup of the best gaming laptops with RTX 50 series GPUs to keep your frame rate smooth.

What’s Next for Fortnite x Disney Collabs?

The Fortnite and Disney partnership continues to grow into one of the most expansive crossovers in gaming. Following Hercules earlier in Chapter 7 Season 2, Toy Story suggests Epic is working through Disney’s animated catalog at a steady clip. Given the depth of that catalog, players can likely expect more franchise crossovers before the season ends.

The broader Fortnite Disney experience is still in active development, and Toy Story is described by Epic as just one piece of a larger shared universe being built between the two companies. In the meantime, Chapter 7 Season 2 continues to deliver — the same update that dropped the Toy Story skins has also brought other wild additions to the island, including the Finger Guns Pew Pew weapon that arrived as part of the April Fools event.
