The Toy Box consists of two main areas: Andy's House and Galaxy Toys. | ===''Kingdom Hearts III''=== | ||
The world of Toy Box consists of two main areas: Andy's House, which is a decently small area, and Galaxy Toys, a large shopping center where the majority of the world's story take place. | |||
===Andy's House=== | ====Andy's House==== | ||
{{nihongo|'''Andy's House'''|アンディの家|Andi no Ie}} is a small, self-contained area where Sora's party arrives in the world, consisting solely of Andy's bedroom where [[Woody]], [[Buzz Lightyear]], and all the other toys normally reside, and the street directly in front of the house. The party can go out one of two windows from the bedroom: one next to the bed which leads to the garage roof, and the other over the desk which leads to the front yard. Once outside, the party can use a trampoline situated in front of the garage to return to the bedroom. Going down either side of the street leads to the next area. | {{nihongo|'''Andy's House'''|アンディの家|Andi no Ie}} is a small, self-contained area where Sora's party arrives in the world, consisting solely of Andy's bedroom where [[Woody]], [[Buzz Lightyear]], and all the other toys normally reside, and the street directly in front of the house.

{{nihongo|'''Galaxy Toys'''|ギャラクシートイズ|Gyarakushī Toizu}}, a game-original area, is a three-story shopping mall where the majority of the world is set. This area is unique in that the party will be attacked by toys possessed by the [[Heartless]], primarily the [[Gigas]] mech toys, which can be hijacked by Sora once defeated. Inactive Gigas are also found on display podiums throughout the building to be used at any time. | {{nihongo|'''Galaxy Toys'''|ギャラクシートイズ|Gyarakushī Toizu}}, a game-original area, is a three-story shopping mall where the majority of the world is set.
