To infinity and beyond, or at least while supplies last.
You’ve got a friend in PC—MSI has announced a new collection of Toy Story-themed PC components, sold as a complete prebuilt PC, bringing Pixar’s first family to the gaming battle station. From the graphics card to the motherboard’s CMOS battery, the DIY PC is plastered in Toy Story branding and will be available only in Taiwan for a very limited time.
The MAG PANO Toy Story Edition PC bundle includes Toy Story versions of the MSI PANO 110R case, RTX 5070 Gaming Trio GPU, Z890 Gaming Plus motherboard, 850W MAG A850GL power supply, and MAG CORELIQUID AIO cooler. The bundle also includes the Intel Core Ultra 5 245K, 32GB of Kingston Fury Beast DDR5 RAM, and MSI’s Spatium M450 1TB SSD to complete the PC, though these lack the Toy Story livery.
Each of the five branded components is themed around a different major Toy Story character or object from the first two movies. The Woody-themed Z890 Gaming Plus motherboard is covered in heatsinks in Woody’s trademark yellow and cow-print colors, plus Lenny the binoculars hiding out on the CMOS battery. The little green aliens of Pizza Planet make their appearance on the AIO cooler, bringing green, blue, and purple RGB lighting effects to the computer.
The only innovation most companies allow themselves to afford to make is in marketing. Most of the industry has to be dragged kicking and screaming into doing something legitimately better.
That’s why new PC hardware news is no longer in the realm of “This guy in our lab figured out how to propagate a clock circuit much better, giving us twice as much space to put logic at a very small cost increase” and more “The screen on the fan cover can now rotate!!! (*not compatible with AMD CPUs)”
That sounds cool but the execution is very poor. The case doesnt jump out as a toystory case and then it doesnt match the style of toystory. It needs more grey plastic and rounded edges and less sharp glass edges.
