This is a 6-inch figure line and as of this review has 3 figures in the line.

PACKAGING: Before we open this up, let's take a look at the packaging.
Buzz comes in a rectangle-style box, Buzz and Sox are displayed in the middle with all the accessories. The Alpha Class logo is in the upper right of the box while down the bottom we have some artwork of Buzz along with the Lightyear movie logo. Turning the box to the side we have the movie logo along with some more of the artwork wrapping around the front of the box. The back of the box shows us Buzz playing with Sox and a few more of the figures we can get in this line. Moving the box around one more time we have some more artwork of Buzz.
OUTSIDE OF THE BOX: Let's open the box and take a closer look at the figure.
Taking Buzz out of the box we can see that this figure does a good job of making him look like how he looks in the movie. The face however does look very shiny overall.
