VM Speculation with Mike Boon: Slinky Dog and Prospector Pete

Today we're taking a look at two of the most famously voiced characters from the franchise. Good old Earnest and Frasier. Thanks again to Mike Boon for such wonderful artwork!
 Slinky Dog
Toy Story (1995)
Originally voiced by: Jim Varney (Toy Story)

Like the Potato Heads, licensing issues likely got in the way of having Slinky appear in Toy Story Series 1. But considering his prominence in the series, that’s a wrong that would need to be righted. I pictured the body component to be clear, with the slinky coils stretching around his midsection.
 Stinky Pete the Prospector
Toy Story 2 (1999)
Voiced by: Kelsey Grammer

The crafty and deceitful villain in Toy Story 2 can participate in all sorts of adventures with Woody, Jessie and Bullseye from Series 1. I tried to stick to the limitations of the mould, but this would obviously look great with a hat accessory and/or a pick-axe.
Mike Boon joins us every day this week with his speculation of a Toy Story Series 2 vinylmation. For past posts click here. You can also check Mike out at his own blog: baboondesign.blogspot.com
