Walt Disney World provided details about the two main rides
coming to the 11-acre Toy Story Land, scheduled to open at Disney's Hollywood
Studios next summer.
The Slinky Dog Dash will be a roller coaster themed around
the concept of the movies' main character Andy having built the ride in his
backyard using a "Mega Coaster Play Kit" and some of his other
favorite toys. The coaster, inspired by the films' Slinky Dog character, will
send riders dipping, dodging and dashing around turns and drops Andy created to
stretch Slinky's coils to their limit.
Disney calls Slinky Dog Dash a "family coaster,"
which means it will be tame enough for kids in elementary school.
The second attraction will be Alien Swirling Saucers and is
being designed as a play set that Andy receives from Pizza Planet, inspired by
the first Toy Story film. Aliens will be flying around in their toy flying
saucers and trying to capture riders' rocket vehicles using "The Claw."
