Hmm, not really sure this is a reason to hate Pixar.
"But they also looked a little too much like the unicycle from the animated short film Red's Dream. At least, that's what Pixar thought."
I think it look exactly like bike from Red's Dream, which was released in 1987 so any similarities might not be accidental. Also, 1994 is around the time they were ramping up for their first movie release and an IPO so I'm sure they had to "fix this" incase there were any questions.

- wccrawford 15y agoComparing those 2 pictures, I'm actually amazed at how different they are. The seat is shaped slightly differently. The Pixar seat has springs and mounting rails, where the other has nothing. The Pixar frame is rounded, the other frame is squared off and looks like it has should pads. The Pixar wheel is spoked. The other has a triangle-like center. So, the similarities? They both have all the basic parts of a unicycle, and they're red, and the frame is slightly oversized.
