Look familiar? The Pixar pizza truck that appears again, and again, and again...



It was blurred through a fish tank in Finding Nemo, zoomed across a highway in Rataouille, and was hidden among dozens of cars in Pixar's 2006 film by the same name.



The Pizza Planet delivery truck, first seen in the original Toy Story, makes a cameo in almost every Pixar film in the last 16 years.



And imaginative animators are still finding ways to cleverly incorporate the distinct yellow Toyota Hilux pick-up truck into the studio's latest productions.

Debut: The truck made its first-ever appearance here in 1995 movie Toy Story

In Toy Story, it appeared as a delivery truck for a then-fictional pizza joint, where Woody and Buzz Lightyear go for a bite.



The truck, with a distinct 'Yo' inscribed on the tailgate and rocket on the roof the with restaurant's logo, also appears in sequels Toy Story 2 and 3.

The restaurant has since been brought to life at Walt Disney World's Disney's Hollywood Studios and Disneyland Paris, designed with a science fiction theme and dotted with arcade games with the movies in mind.

In the day: A similar scene shows the Pizza Planet truck much more clearly in 1998's A Bug's Life And through the years, the delivery truck for the planetary-themed restaurant has become such a standard reference for Disney/Pixar, it has been featured in every one of their films since, with the exception of The Incredibles in 2004.
