For more than 25 years, Pixar has been entertaining children across the globe with its successful slate of animations, from Monsters Inc to Inside Out – however, it is their very first feature film that has been voted their greatest of all time by RadioTimes.com readers.

According to our exclusive poll, Toy Story is the best Pixar film to come out of the studio, with 17 per cent of readers voting for the classic starring Tom Hanks and Tim Allen.

First released back in 1995, the Academy Award-winning film follows a group of toys, led by cowboy Woody (Tom Hanks), who come alive when their owner Andy leaves the room, and it went on to become the third highest-grossing film of that year.

Toy Story was a fairly clear winner in our Pixar poll, with 2008’s WALL-E finishing in second place with nine per cent of the vote, while rodent cookery comedy Ratatouille was a close third with eight per cent.

Both Monsters Inc and The Incredibles received seven per cent of the vote, while tear-jerker Up followed with six per cent.

Voters had 22 Pixar films to choose from in our extensive poll, from Finding Nemo (five per cent) and A Bug’s Life (three per cent), to newer films like Inside Out (four per cent) and Onward (four per cent).

It’s worth noting however that Pixar’s two latest films – Soul and Luca – were not included in the poll, but sequels such as Toy Story 4 (two per cent), The Incredibles 2 (one percent) and Cars 3 (one per cent) were.

The Toy Story franchise is still going strong today, with spin-off film Lightyear set to arrive in cinemas next year, with Chris Evans voicing the original Buzz Lightyear.
