First Shots of Ghibli'sTotoro in Toy Story 3

D'aww

 
While the debates rage if the 10 year old sequel to Toy Story 3 is necessary (I don't think it is,) its obvious that Pixar is working their usual magic. We've long discussed the Pixar X Ghibli love, complete with gifts and letters exchanged. Well, today the iconic Totoro left Ghibli, for the arms of Pixar... AND HE'S ADORABLE.
 
Alright, I'm sold. This has totally sealed the deal for me. I just have to see the plush and fluff Totoro in this film. Anyone else swayed?

I don't understand the comment about necessity.  It's just a movie, movies aren't necessary as a general rule.  #2 wasn't necessary either but it managed to add to the original very well.
 
Looks pretty cool, though I probably would have seen it anyway.

My kids will go crazy over this.  In my house, My Neighbor Totoro is tops.

In 2008 on the final leg of a 300km charity ride I visited the "official" Totoro bus stop in Ume-machi, Oita Prefecture and waited patiently for the Totoro bus to arrive.
 
I'm still waiting...

oh wow, guess I go watch Toy Story 3. Then again, I always go watch the Pixar movie at the theater.

If they make a real Totoro plushie that looks like that, I'd buy it in a heartbeat.

Well besides Cars (was way too kiddy. I mean the rest have been enjoyable for both kids and adults but man that one was terrible I get the appeal for children though) I've enjoyed the Pixar films I've seen and I'm interested in seeing what they do with Toy Story 3.
