Forky - online puzzles

Forky is a fictional character in the Toy Story franchise created by Pixar. His first appearance is in Toy Story 4, which was released in June 2019. Before he became Forky, he was just a plain spork until Bonnie made him into Forky. He is also the main character of the series of shorts Forky Asks a Question on Disney+.

Concept and creation

While considering names for the character, director Josh Cooley showed a picture of the character to his four-year-old son and asked for a suggestion on the name. Cooley's son suggested the name Fork Face, and Cooley later said "the fact that he's around the same age as Bonnie and didn't know what a spork was, I thought, 'That feels real to me.' So Forky felt like a kid would name him that."

Character overview

Forky is a white plastic spork outfitted with a pair of different sized googly eyes, a mouth made out of blue plasticine, two halves of a popsicle stick for a pair of ice pop sticks for feet held together by bubble gum, arms and hands made out of a red pipe cleaner, and a unibrow made out of red plasticine. Bonnie's name is written on the bottom of his feet and has a rainbow sticker on his left foot.

Attributes

Forky is portrayed to be naive and self-loathing, having convinced himself to be garbage from the moment he came to life. This attitude gradually changed upon befriending Woody and his gang, though his naivete and inquisitive yet dim-witted demeanor remain.

Appearances

Toy Story 4

Forky is first seen during the orientation at Bonnie's kindergarten class, where he was created with the help of Woody who scavenged parts from the trash bin for a craft project.
