[Toy Story] When does a toy die?

Do they live only until they're completely destroyed?  Are there millions of toys buried alive in backyards, sandboxes, and landfills right now?

The toys each possess an level of "toyness" which is a measure of how much of a toy they are. It is this quality of toyness that animates and enlivens the toys. Toyness is imparted by the subconscious will of humans. When a person thinks of an object as a toy, it confers a degree of toyness on the object which causes it to develop sentience and sapience. When a toy is abandoned and no longer thought of as a toy, it no longer possesses toyness and it returns to its original state as an inanimate object. 

A toy buried in a yard, but still remembered by a person would be alive. An action figure that was made by a machine and not seen by a person would not be alive. An object like a stick that was never meant to be a toy could still become one if a person played with it.
