Toy Story Land is just a week away from its official opening on June 30, and the next week will see numerous previews for Cast Members and media.

At Slinky Dog Dash, Andy has assembled his roller coaster kit for maximum family fun. Tracks and supports in bright colors of red, orange, yellow and blue are put together according to Andy’s hand-drawn plans, with Rex and Jessie lending a hand. And to complete his creation, Andy picked up everyone’s favorite floppy-eared dachshund with a strrrrretch-ing slinky coil belly and dropped it on to the coaster track. 

Alien Swirling Saucers will immerse guests in the playful world of Andy’s toys. This galactic space toy is designed as a play set that Andy won at the Pizza Planet restaurant. Adorable little Toy Story green Aliens swirl about in their flying saucers with guests in tow in their rocket-ship toys, while “The Claw” hangs overhead. This space adventure is bathed in music reimagined for intergalactic fun, dappled with multi-color lighting and sound effects from throughout galaxies.

“With set pieces, staging, attractions and experiences Toy Story Land represents the best of Walt Disney Imagineering’s collaboration with our storytelling partners at Pixar Animation Studios,” said Bob Chapek, chairman of Walt Disney Parks and Resorts. “This new land will place guests inside the wondrous world of Woody, Buzz and their pals – and invite everyone to experience the joy of being a toy.”

Check out this video for a look at Toy Story Land's three rides - Slinky Dog Dash, Alien Swirling Saucers, and Toy Story Mania.

    Now why can't they add the small spinning slinky for the kids and families. This coaster isn't family """friendly"""! It's NUTS!

    The new shaded picnic area in TSL will be chunks of Triceratop ride welded together.

    Yeah, it was an attempt at humor based on Disney's construction pace with the shade canopy.

    Got it. It was the specified "three years" that threw me off. I read too much into that.

    Kind of hard to move a ride that’s already been scrapped for parts.

    Interesting statement I agree that it won't happen but that it can't happen in the next 3 years. In the hypothetical that they haven't yet destroyed it, In the next 3 years, if they wanted to, they couldn't move triceratopspin to toy story Land?

    Can’t happen, then. Or at least not in the next 3 years.

    Disone5 days ago

    This is a good idea.

    What is Bob waiting to move the defunct triceratops spin ride to Toy Story land with simple and easy cosmetics change to fit Trixie ?? Or the plan is to wait 24 years like with Monster Incs door coaster??

    Appears to be out of print but it looks like Amazon may have a few used copies - I'll try to check it out. Again, thank you. :)

    No worries. I do recommend Melody Malmberg's "The Making of Animal Kingdom" for anyone interested in AK's history as the park's development went through a lot of changes from 1989 to the announcement in 1995
