Toy Scary Boo is the eleventh episode of the first season of What's New, Scooby-Doo?

Premise

The toys in a shopping mall toy store come to life and cause havoc after hours. The store owner asks the Gang to get to the bottom of the mystery.

Synopsis

In a shopping mall, in the toy section, a Spaceman Swinton comes to life and breaks out of its box. Along with the help of more Spaceman Swintons and a toy truck, they manage to enter a vent and cross to the next corridor where they attack a janitor and chase him away.

The gang arrive at the shopping mall in the morning, where Velma is set on getting a Spaceman Swinton for her cousin as a present. On entering the store, they discover the manager, Mr. Bottomczek, taking the toys off the shelf. Sandy Gordon, a woman who is working for POUT, is claiming that the toys went on a rampage. She orders the manager to get rid of all the unsafe toys.

On investigating the strange and mischievous toys, the gang head to find the security officer, Walter Claphammer who shows them a recorded video of the toys on their rampage. The gang decide to stay in the mall after hours so that they could investigate, but Walter thinks that it is a bad idea because they wouldn't be able to get out until morning.

While searching for clues, Shaggy and Scooby are attacked by toy dolls that start to tug and pull at them. The dolls chase Shaggy and Scooby and then the rest of the gang into a lift where they begin to go up. However, the dolls seem cunning and begin to cut the wires holding the lift in its place and suddenly, the gang is flying to the ground. Scooby manages to stop the lift, but is forced to have a Scooby Snack shown in front of him for him to escape. Velma comments on a "loud, booming sound" while they were being attacked.

The gang decide to split-up, but different to usual. This time, Fred and Shaggy search together, but completely contrast each other in interests. In the meantime, Scooby, Daphne and Velma find Harry Noze inside a van, creating a toy, which he calls 'Crying Carrie'. Fred and Shaggy, after duck-taping the toys in the store, find Sandy Gordon tied up in a storage cupboard, with a sack of batteries next to her. It was obvious that she was trying to dismantle all the toys so that they wouldn't be harmful.

When comparing notes, the toy soldiers suddenly drop in on their conversation and attack. They are chased around the mall until they are cornered next to a fountain. The gang realize the toys are unable to go into the water and so Daphne uses a hose to short-circuit them. Velma examines one of the soldier control mechanisms and shows it to Harry Noze, who claims it is very impressive.

Looking in the basement, the gang discover a large drill where the source of the booming sound had been coming from. They realize that the attacking toys were a diversion. The gang finally bluff their way into finding the culprit. Harry Noze confesses.

When leaving, Velma suddenly realizes that Harry Noze didn't commit the crime. They return to the mall in the basement and discover Walter uncovering paintings that had been hidden in a hole. He tries to run, but the gang outwit him.

When they really leave, Velma is happy that she got her cousin a Spaceman Swinton instead of the annoying, crying doll. However, they fail to notice the toy grins evilly, a sinister red glow in its eyes.

Cultural references

The title is meant to sound like the title to the 1999 Pixar film Toy Story 2.
- The concept of toys coming to life and causing mayhem and destruction is very similar to that of the 1998 film, Small Soldiers.
The name "Swinton" may come from Swinton Scott, who directed several other episodes of What's New, Scooby-Doo?
In the teaser, the Spaceman Swinton dolls build a long ladder with building bricks resembling LEGO.
The Annabel Action Figures are parodies of Mattel's Barbie dolls.
The toy soldiers that chase the gang during the chase song are likely parodies of Hasbro's G.I Joe toyline.
Acy's is a parody of Macy's.
A large cardboard cutout resembles Superman.
Walter Claphammer is a parody of Don Knotts' TV character Barney Fife from The Andy Griffith Show.
Harry Noze tries to claim credit for robotizing the toys, which include a "spaceman" character. Harry's voice actor Bill Mumy starred in Lost in Space (1965-1968) as Will Robinson, whose best friend was a Robot.

Animation mistakes and/or technical glitches

When Shaggy grabs a doughnut from his secret stash, he grabs it from the icing side and when he is pulling it away the icing side flips to the bottom.

Inconsistencies/continuity errors and/or goofs/oddities

Mr. Bottomczek should have been able to tell that the Disco Dog Collar Deluxe was a fake, too.
How were the Lego bricks able to float?
When Fred is captured by the dolls, he is quickly tied up and carried off. However, seconds later he is seen freed and running away. Who rescued him?
