Toy Story Land - General Discussion

For me, TSL will be a great land....to avoid. It'll be knee high screamin' snot monster land.

Don't let @IzzyB hear you say that...

I think the land will be fine for what it's setting out to accomplish, but SW Land is what we've long waited for from Disney at WDW. I'm still hopeful of a mini-Indy section too with a ride.

This is a really good photo of what the aerials is for HWS..And I have something else that i'll raise on HWSOverhaul.

You don't know me very well at all. I actually thought DH's comment was funny. I also understand DH's humor and we both respect each other.

Nice to hear you don't understand my humor or respect me.

The new artwork is from a billboard hence the lower quality and poorer colour but hopefully this will help you out.

YOU ARE THE MAN! Thanks much!

Quote of the day: This is from one of the pretty pro Disney sites, and I'd say two thirds or more of the comments were very negative about the attractions and timeline for Toy Story Land. The poster was a gentlemen named Keith Schneider: "As for two years it will take to build Toy Story Land. All I can say is Disney is like my mom going to the bathroom: It takes both of them a looooooooooong time just to produce some crap".

That's awful. Honestly, I don't see the Toy Story Land addition that have been added to the parks so far to be anything more than a cheap fix. They had something better going by expanding Pixar Place.

So, from the complete concept art, it show that Al's Toy Barn and the Woody's Round-Up area have been cut.

Man, that is going to be a short coaster. 70 secs. tops.

So, from the complete concept art, it shows Al's Toy Barn and the Woody's Round-Up area has, in fact, been cut.

And that is also including the race track that would've been there, some of the theming on the saucers and as stated; the changings to Slinkie.

RNRC is barely 90 secs. If it can muster a few thrills in that time, it'll be a worthwhile addition and fairly cheap for Disney.

I honestly think the ASS will end up costing them more than the coaster.

Esqueeze me?

Alien Saucer Spin. They weren't really thinking about the acronym when making that ride's name.

Or they did and had a good laugh about it.

I just now watched the video rendering of the Slinky ride and wow, I know it's just a rendering, but it doesn't look too attractive. So far it really reminds me of the infamous "dinosaur carnival" (I forget the formal name of it) at Animal Kingdom. Does anyone else get that same vibe?

I'm sure it will be named the best coaster ever built by some, and 'meh' by others

So today an engineer working on Toy Story Land came into the Toys R Us that I work at looking for toys as reference for the molds he had to make for the theming of the land. one of the things he shared was that the walls and flooring of the Little Green Men ride will be themed to Construx sets. For those not familiar with Construx, they're a beam-based construction toy made by Fisher-Price in the 1980's and were later discontinued and revived only to be discontinued again due to the rising popularity of LEGO. He was looking for the toys and I had to explain they were discontinued. This is an example of the toy looks like:

I loved playing with Construx! My parents still have my old sets at their house and my kids and nephews still play with them when we visit. Great toy, too bad they are no longer available.

Interesting if true, the concept art doesn't really look like Construx though.

In a news related to TSM, they have apparently removed; very silently, the Mr. Potato Heads in the lines for the attraction.
