Where does the cargo ship of Buzz Lightyear toys crash-land in Toy Story 5?

The cargo ship carrying Buzz Lightyear toys crash-lands on a deserted island in Toy Story 5. The opening sets up a separate adventure for a shipment of high-tech Buzz units.

The toys are stuck in demo mode after the wreck and must escape the island. They follow the North Star while trying to reach what they call “Star Command,” echoing the original Buzz Lightyear's mistaken belief that he is a genuine space ranger rather than a toy.

The sequence involves a group of 50 high-tech Buzz Lightyear units, all voiced by Tim Allen. Their advanced features and shared behavior create a visual contrast with the familiar, lower-tech Buzz who remains part of Bonnie's toy group.

The deserted island is only the starting point, not their final home. After the toys eventually join the main characters, the Buzz units are taken in by children at a school playground. That ending can cause confusion with the question: the playground is where they later go, while the island is where the cargo shipment crash-lands.
