Disney World's Guardians of the Galaxy Cosmic Rewind Virtual Queue reaches capacity just seconds after opening

The Virtual Queue for EPCOT's Guardians of the Galaxy Cosmic Rewind reached capacity after just 3 seconds on its first day of operation.

1pm. UPDATE: The second release of Virtual Queue at 1pm also reached capacity almost instantly.

Disney decided not to offer a traditional standby line for the new rollercoaster and instead chose to use a Virtual Queue to control entry into the line, along with an Individual Attraction Purchase to access the ride via the Lightning Lane.

The Virtual Queue reaching capacity within seconds does not come as a surprise, as a similar situation occurred with Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance and Remy's Ratatouille Adventure.

With the Virtual Queue reaching capacity, the only remaining option is the Individual Attraction Lightning Lane purchase, currently priced at $17 per person. As of writing, the Lightning Lane is currently available but will likely sell out soon.

When we visited over the summer, you could show up any time all day with your VQ from the morning, as long as it has already been called, is that still generally the case?
