This happened to me when rewatching The Brave Little Toaster. The junkyard cars were and still are my favorite characters. The green pickup truck reminds me of my deceased grandfather. Plus they got more character development than the main characters didn't but got killed off way too early. In my opinion, if they had a few adventures with the MCs and had a family type of bond with them, then the fans would have been a bit more heartbroken, plus this could have meant more merch, and thus it would have been more successful as well as more fan content, and if they had a few memories and entire scenes of memories from their lives during that time before their deaths, and maybe one or two, maybe even three of them being rescued or hiding from the magnet they could have had little flashbacks if a similar event to the memory triggering said flashback, they could have had a more tearful farewell, and maybe even a few last words better than a song verse, or maybe even their verse could be sung during the flashback and they could have a last goodbye before their deaths such as for example the green pickup could sing his verse, and then he could have a goodbye along the lines of "I guess I must leave... It was nice getting to relive memories with my second family..." And him being carried off to his demise, small tears in his eyes, of maybe his headlights fogging like glasses do when you cry while wearing them. (maybe it's just me, but this always happens when I cry while wearing my glasses.) They could have been way more fleshed out as characters in general, which would have made the whole movie go from cheery to dark to cheery to sad to cheery, thus making it more emotional, and maybe even having the MCs become part of the family, and those who are spared at the end of the movie could have shown up in the sequels, such as the muscle car could be bought by Chris, or maybe even the wood-sided van and there could be more appearances, such as a reincarnated green pickup being the new car Rob and Chris bought and him remembering them and Kirby (if Kirby became basically his adopted son) getting emotional because of this and then throughout the sequels they meet reincarnated versions of the junkyard cars which would have made me happy because they are some of the best characters in the movie in my opinion.

Sorry about the tangent, it's just kinda me getting emotional and tossing an idea out there that I will write a fanfic based off of on its own blog dedicated specifically to it.
