Bo Peep's time line is full of mistakes. She was donated nine years before the film. When she meets Woody she says she's been "lost" for seven years. Based on various comments, in that two year time span she was given to a little girl who grew up to not need her and spent years in the antiques store before getting bored enough to go on her own.

The Pixar logo at the start develops rain, which leads into the opening.
The Pixar logo at the end replaces Luxo Jr with Duke Caboom (continuously doing stunts on his bike), and when he's done stomping on the I in the logo, Combat Carl runs in and finally gets a high-five. See more »
Toy Story 4 delivers a great concluding story after believing the third film in the series was the last. Toy Story 3 was good and it had an emotional satisfying end with the theme Andy growing up and going to college. He is growing distant with his gang of toys with Woody and his friends. He passes his collection of toys to Bonnie. Sure, the film does answer a question about Bo Peeps absence in the third film. Which the film begins with a flash back several years ago explaining Bo Peeps absence. Now, the present time Bonnie has been having a great time with her toys. She has been distant with Woody which he has been placed inside the closet. But when she starts Kindergarten. And makes a new toy out of a spork. She becomes obsessed with the spork toy she made and called him Forky. Forky believing he is just a kitchen utensil and belongs in the trash. Woody tries to babysit Forky and keeping him close with Bonnie. As they go on a road trip. They lose Forky on the road. Woody decides to chase him down and to bring him back to Bonnie. Along the way, they come across a carnival and an antique store of unwanted toys. That is when Woody sees Bo Peep again. When he comes across another toy of a doll named Gabby Gabby. Who wants Woody's voice box so she can talk and maybe get a child to take her along. Buzz Lightyear embarks on a mission to find Woody and Forky and to bring them back.
Toy Story 4 delivers another great sequel. It did not feel like Disney was aiming for another cash grab and an unnecessary sequel. The story does conclude some characters arc. The theme of where do toys go when the child no longer wants them? And what do the toys do next? It does have another emotional ending which is sad and satisfying. The animation is beautiful and colorful. I remember the first movie being one of the best animation films ever. The fourth film comes along way. And is one of those film series with all four movies having a theme and a story that works so well.
The characters of Woody and Buzz are back. There are some new additions like Forky, a confused spork. He is adorable, funny, and entertaining. Bo Peep is back as a stronger and an independent woman. Then, there is Ducky and Bunny which they are a funny duo. Duke Caboom voiced by the noticeable Keanu Reeves was entertaining. And the villain Gabby Gabby can be menacing with her several dummies that she commands. She was also a fun addition.
Tom Hanks and Tim Allen and the rest of the voice talent were all great with their roles. I did feel like the film was a bit anti climatic with characters rescuing and escaping while getting side tracked. But the film is pure enjoyment for adults and kids.
Overall, Toy Story 4 is a good film. It has a great theme and story that makes it a perfect conclusion to the series. The characters are fun. The animation is beautifully done. The voice talent is amazing. This sequel is definitely worth it.
