Wheezy

Wheezy, often known as "Wheezy the Penguin", is a character from the Pixar film Toy Story 2. He will appear again in Toy Story 3 as a small cameo role, in home video flashbacks.

Wheezy is a rubber toy penguin with a red bowtie, who squeaks when you squeeze him.

He often sings in a deep, celebratory voice to all his friends, and also has a bit of anxiety.

Toy Story 2
He was once one of Andy Davis' favorite toys until his squeaker broke. Andy was very upset, and when his mother said she would fix it, she instead left Wheezy on the shelf, where he was forgotten as he coughed on dust. He tried to call for help, but his squeaker was still broken.

When Woody's arm was accidentally torn by Andy, he also ended up on the shelf and by chance, discovered Wheezy. He tried to help Wheezy but there was little he could do to repair him. The asthmatic penguin pointed out that there was a yard sale outside and that he was likely to be sold. He was among the many toys collected for the sale, so Woody rushed to rescue him. He and Andy's dog, Buster, ran to the sale and recovered Wheezy, who was grateful for his help. Unfortunately, Woody fell off Buster, who ran back inside the house. He was captured by Al McWhiggin of Al's Toy Barn and this is where the toys' mission to rescue him began.

Wheezy is later seen when Woody and his friends return home. Wheezy was finally repaired with help from Mr. Shark and, in a celebratory mood, sings You've Got a Friend In Me to all of his friends.

Toy Story 3
Wheezy only appears briefly in the home videos Mrs. Davis makes of Andy. Later on, Woody comments that Wheezy and toys like him were either given away or sold in garage sales.

Trivia

 * Wheezy originated from the earliest story ideas for the first Toy Story, when it would have starred the main character Tinny from Tin Toy. At that time, it was planned to have been a feature version of Pixar's unmade TV special A Tin Toy Christmas (hence the reason he's a penguin).
 * Wheezy got his name from having asthma.
