Toy Story Toons: Hawaiian Vacation is a 2011 American animated short film produced by Pixar Animation Studios and directed by Gary Rydstrom. The first entry in the Toy Story Toons series, the short features characters from the Toy Story films and takes place after the events of Toy Story 3. It premiered in theaters with Pixar's Cars 2,[1][2][3] and was included on the film's home video release.[4]
Plot
Three months after the events of Toy Story 3, it is Bonnie's winter break from school, and she is going on vacation to Hawaii with her family. The toys are excited to have a week of relaxation, but Ken and Barbie reveal themselves to have stowed away in Bonnie's backpack, hoping to join her in Hawaii. Bonnie leaves them in her room, however, much to Ken's horror and disappointment when he realizes they are not going to Hawaii. Barbie reveals to Woody that Ken planned to have their first kiss on a beach at sunset, basing it off of an image on a Hawaii travel brochure. This inspires Woody, Buzz, and the rest of Bonnie's toys to recreate their own version of Hawaii for the two. After various adventures in "Hawaii", Ken and Barbie share their first kiss in the snow at sunset, recreating the scene from the brochure. However, the two step off the edge of the porch without realizing it and end up buried in the snow.
In a post-credits scene, the other toys are trying to free them from a block of ice by using a hairdryer to melt it. Buzz describes the experience as the "best vacation ever", which Woody agrees with as Mr. Potato Head tries chiseling the ice with a screwdriver.
