Toy Story Land gets a summer 2018 opening date

Posted: Sunday July 16, 2017 8:28pm EDT by WDWMAGIC Staff

Disney today announced that Toy Story Land at Disney's Hollywood Studios will open in the Summer of 2018.

In the new land you’ll find yourself shrunk to the size of a toy to explore the world of Andy’s backyard with your favorite Toy Story characters, including Woody and Buzz. And Toy Story Land will feature two new themed attractions.

Slinky Dog Dash will be a family coaster attraction where you’ll zip, dodge and dash around many turns and drops that Andy has created to really make Slinky and his coils stretch to his limits.

Alien Swirling Saucers will also be a new attraction at Toy Story Land. It’s designed as a toy play set that Andy got from Pizza Planet, inspired by the first “Toy Story” film. Aliens are flying around in their toy flying saucers and trying to capture your rocket toy vehicle with “The Claw.”

More than that and its footprint has been expanded.

Your out of date: In 2024, Basic Fun filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection. The company will use bankruptcy proceedings to repay its creditors while remaining in operation. Basic Fun emerged from bankruptcy on November 1, 2024.

Worse than that, K'nex filed for bankruptcy and they're backlogged. No telling when they'll get those giant K'nex pieces now. Good lord!

Target has been sold out of giant K’nex recently, hopefully they get some more in stock soon so they can finish it off

Crazy to think this land is like 10 acres.

But yet if you go over to All Star Movies you will fully be immersed within Andy's room in small size! The contrast Comparison vs here is wild.

It's such a badly designed land.

If they really wanted to go all in on Toy Story they could build a pathway to animation courtyard and use that empty space of nothing. There’s also the employee parking garage just north of SDD and RRB, if relocated could be used for expansion of TSL. Doubt it would ever happen tho

where would you put the battleship game? The land is kind of landlocked. There is probably just enough room to put in a spinner, but not much else?

DHS could use a water ride. If we're talking expansion. Is there room for a Battleships boardgame "come to life" attraction. While we're at it, I think it's time for TSM to get an overhaul. Maybe have an area where we venture into Sid's room and it gets weird. OR A Halloween overlay. Damn this land is lame. Even the theme isn't fully realized. Maybe by the time Toy Story 8 hits we'll get a land refresh.
