Pizza Planet is not just a family restaurant. This is a well-known fictional place loved by Andy Davis from Toy Story and his friends (toys). The restaurant itself features a space theme with a rocket by its side and a half-sphere with a ring around it for the roof. The restaurant is a fun place for children and families, combining pizza with arcade entertainment. The delivery truck of this restaurant became even more famous. It has become an iconic element for Pixar fans to find in films as it is frequently added in a sneaky way to different scenes. It was this truck that Woody and Buzz had taken to find Andy at the Pizza Planet restaurant, where a new adventure starts.

The Pizza Planet logo features the name printed using a bright red color. The inscription is split between two lines with the top line slightly indented to the right. The font choice is characterized by smooth strokes, interconnected characters, and swoosh lines that give the logo a dynamic appearance. The letters “P” are especially designed to go with the ring turning around an imaginary planet. In the upper left corner, the logo has a planet that looks like a pizza with pepperoni and mushrooms and a ring that spins around this planet. The overall design is both playful and creative. It is interesting that in 2018, Redd Rockett’s Pizza Port eatery changed its name to Alien Pizza Planet and began to use this emblem in real life.
