As Pixar has expanded their portfolio, their tradition of placing Easter Eggs in the films and shorts has also expanded as has their options. Their latest movie, Toy Story 4, includes references to every single Pixar film ever created.
Every time a new movie is released, fans scour the frames to find these so-called Easter Eggs that not only reference historical Pixar films and shorts but also what may be to come.
When Google Street View captured Toy Story Land, Disney planted some “Easter Eggs” in the land as a nod to Pixar’s tradition of placing Easter Eggs in their films and shorts. These hidden gems are subtle, but they’re lots of fun when you find them!
Disney and Pixar worked together to create eight unique Easter Eggs hidden throughout Toy Story Land in Disney’s Hollywood Studios. Let’s take a look at these side-by-side photos!

6 – A113
A113 also appears in every Pixar film in a variety of forms including A-113, A1-13, or A11-3. The sequence is an allusion to a classroom at California Institute of the Arts where famous Pixar artists including John Lasseter, Tim Burton, and Brad Bird took graphic design and character animation classes. The code can also be found in Disney movies and Simpsons, Family Guy, Rugrats, South Park, and American Dad! episodes and in video games. Photo credits (C) Disney Enterprises, Inc.
