Toy Story Land - General Discussion

[Nick]

Disney also recently confirmed that Mr. Potato Head will be returning.

Don't have a source but Disney's saying Passholder "exclusive access" will be in SEPTEMBER. Yeah this thing isn't ready.

Yeah saw that on Reddit. I mean something for the APs is better than nothing....but very disappointing.

I dont think that means it isn’t ready. “Exclusive Access” is different wording from AP Preview.

I think this may just be time for APs to get to experience the land bc it will be packed all summer. Look at the recent aerials... it’s pretty close.

Has anyone had luck getting FP for any of the TSL attractions within the first days it's open? Or were they all snapped up by resort guests?

Picked up the Saucers yesterday for late on July 7, so almost first week.

I think most are being snatched by the people paying for FP and then resort guests. Few probably left after that.

Well, at least blackouts will be over.

 

[Cheezbat]

I'm currently in Canada, and just visited Paris...and I actually saw commercials for WDW and the new Toy Story Land...I don't know what Disney is thinking. This land cannot handle big crowds.

 

[Disneyhead]

Well, at least blackouts will be over.

That is why it's scheduled for that time. Having AP Previews when most APs are blacked out would be silly.

That doesn’t sound good, but i agree with Nick, that wording doesn’t sound like it means like a AP thing before the land opens and more like exclusivity thing for us to go in September for us to to try it with it being packed all summer since we aren’t getting one before opens supposedly later this month, but we shall see if they can open it on time. I’m going down in early August and hope it is open.

Say what you want about the quality of Universal's latest attractions, but at least they can handle crowds.

It could also be that the new ride rides at Universal aren't attracting large crowds :look:

I joke because right now, MDE is being a huge pain. 90+ days out and pretty much every reservation I want to make is fully booked. :thud:

I go back and forth on my opinion of MDE. It's absolutely awful for new stuff like this and Pandora.

But. Last night I got a FP for Toy Story that very same night. That would never happen with paper FP and was awesome.

So I might not see this until the September AP Preview.

 

[Nick]

Registration for the event will “open in the coming weeks”.

Passholders Will Gain Exclusive Access to Toy Story Land in September

 

[tankart150]

Oh my god. A week straight of a park with three rides. I'm glad I don't work at guest services.

Exactly why Great Movie Ride shouldn’t have closed.

 

[Nick]

WDW has confirmed there will be no soft opening for the land. Cast Members will have a chance to ride Slinky Dog Dash from June 14th onward, however.

Agreed. Just my opinion but UNI/IOA and WDW shouldn't implement a ride that runs less than 1,500 pph. The only exceptions would be the rides that are obviously designed for small children (eg. the Vekoma Roller Skaters used by Magic Kingdom, IOA, etc.). Slink Dog should have had decent capacity but the alien saucers ride will have lower capacity.

Slinky is also going to have what will probably be one of the most unbearable queues in Orlando as well.
