Meet Toy Story 3's Mr Pricklepants

We've known for a while that Toy Story 3 will feature not only all the regulars, but a few new characters, including a Ken doll voiced by Michael Keaton and a hedgehog - in lederhosen, no less - voiced by Timothy Dalton. Now we have the first proper, animated look at Dalton's role - Mr Pricklepants.

Dalton, of course, was a feature of UK Christmas telly, since he added yet another geek bait role to a list that already includes a stint as James Bond when he portrayed a Time Lord in the cameo-stuffed Dr Who specials.

Pricklepants crops up as part of a special shown on the Disney Channel across the pond last week and while there's not exactly a lot of him (one line to be exact), it's still fun to see him speak and keeps us wondering exactly what part the thespian hedgehog will play.
