Okay, you're missing my point...

Toy Story came out in late November of 1995. Pre-internet and, I would argue, pre-gamers as a concept too. The N64 wouldn't come out for another year and the Playstation had only come out a couple of months before that.

Poser 1.0 came out in 1995. I can't find an exact month, but I would guess summer time at a minimum as that is when I remember finding the box in a store. The boxes for the software had to have been printed months before that. So that would be the box concept at early Summer / Spring of 1995.

What general customer, at that time, pre-release of Toy Story, would be aware of Pixar as a selling point? Who would even have access to the Renderman software and have the ability to import RIB files into it?

This is the same time era where I was salivating over the chance to put 8x2 Megs of RAM in my 386, which I had just scraped up enough money for.

Sure, in early 1995 industry people might have had an idea of the impact Toy Story might have had. But the impact on the wider public wouldn't start to be felt until December of 1995. Making it an odd sales point to emphasize in early 1995.
