It doesn't say much more than the concept art, but here's the full article.

Looks like theyre changing the entrance to TSMM as well.

Looks better then I expected, a new family coaster will be a good fit.

That's a little upsetting. It would have been better to get a Pixar area with a variety of Pixar themed attractions.

The coaster looks like fun, but if this is really all there is to the DHS expansion I'm disappointed.

From the blog:

• Family-friendly roller coaster – This coaster will zip and zoom, plunge and coast as it takes guests on a thrilling, toy-filled adventure throughout the new land on the back of Slinky Dog.
  
  
• Alien saucers attraction – The famous little green aliens from the movie will take guests around for a spin in their very own flying saucers.
  
  
• Toy Story Mania! – Guests glide into the Toy Story Midway Games Play Set and take aim at 3D objects in a variety of fast-paced games, with an expansion that adds an additional track to this popular attraction.

Not sure how just this fills 11-acres, but maybe at least this can actually be ready for next year?

An outdoor steel coaster at a Disney park? Never thought I'd see the day.

I would imagine a lot of that 11 acres will be playgrounds. Also the coaster looks a lot larger then I was expecting.

 

[ChristopherSE]

I could be very wrong, but it looked as though the Slinky Dog coaster launches out of that giant spring. I definitely think that'd be great, set it apart from WDW's other family coasters and actually fit very well with the theme.

Also, I may have missed it. Did we get a name change for DHS?

Nope.

Well it's not over yet. Something like that would be the last thing announced, even if they already brushed over the overhaul.

 

[Nico]

Just ended and no retheme. Interesting.

 

[MajorDork]

If you think about it there's no point in announcing a name change if we won't even see TSL or SWL for 5+ years. It'll come at a much later date.

Exciting stuff. I like the idea of Toy Story Land more than Pixar Land because Toy Story is clearly the most popular property. Especially with the 4th movie out in 2017. I would hope this would open in time to coincide with the movie release date

Can anyone find a high res version of the concept art? Also, where exactly on Google Earth are they going to build this thing? Is LMA staying?

California Screamin'?

Concept art looks great! I'm really excited about that coaster. Looks like an Intamin in the concept art but we know that can change. I'm still trying to figure out where this goes though? Where is Midway Mania on this concept art? Where is this entrance at the bottom right connected to?
