The antique doll who wants Woody’s voice box in Toy Story 4 is Gabby Gabby.
Gabby Gabby is a 1950s pull-string doll who lives in Second Chance Antiques. A manufacturing defect has left her with a broken voice box, and she believes replacing it will finally make her desirable to the store owner’s granddaughter, Harmony. She therefore targets Woody’s working voice box and uses a group of silent ventriloquist dummies to help capture him.
Although Gabby initially acts as the film’s antagonist, her motive is rooted in loneliness rather than simple greed. Woody eventually gives her his voice box in exchange for Forky’s freedom. Harmony still rejects Gabby, but Gabby finds a lost child at a carnival and chooses to comfort her, ultimately being taken home.
Gabby is sometimes confused with Bo Peep or Dolly, both other female characters in the film. Unlike them, Gabby is an antique pull-string doll whose distinctive broken voice box shapes her entire story.
