    I love this ride/game! I have only been able to do it once though, due to lines

    I've only been fortunate to have ridden this 3 times. 1st time was for CM Preview, 2nd time I had gotten to DHS early with family to get FP's, and the 3rd time was that same day and we just happened to have found extra TSM FP's. I was lucky that day.

    I'd put it somewhere between Amazing and Eh. It's not the greatest, but when you compare it to everything else they've been putting out lately...

    I have ridden both the one in DCA and DHS, I prefer the queue in DHS, but think they both have great entertainment value!

    I really enjoy it, even though I'm terrible. I'm hoping that the novelty wears off a little by the next time I go (whenever that may be) just so that the lines are way too long. Fast pass whenever possible!

    I loved this ride! Definitely need a fast pass though. I am curious about the video game version that is coming out later this year.

    My trick is to pace myself all the way through and then just go crazy on the bonus stage!! I have gotten them like all to 5,000 once!!

    I actually set the high score for the day around 11AM one morning. Rode again later in the day and I had dropped to number 3. It's pretty cool when you get it. You're score is highlighted in yellow with a gold star next to it.



    My highest score ever was around 315,000. The funny thing is I didn't even make Top 3 for that day. Must have been good competition.

    My wife and I were able to get some of the bonuses like the rainbow balloons and the robot. When you work as a team you can really score some points.

    Looks like it will receive a Toy Story 3 update pretty soon.

    From Jim Hill Media...

    Take – for example – Sunday’s “Toy Story 3” preview at Gotham Hall. As Mary Beech (i.e. Vice President and General Manager of Global Studio Franchise Development for Disney Consumer Products) talked about all the wonderful things that are in the works to promote this Pixar sequel, she let slip that a “Toy Story 3” overlay is in the works for the “Toy Story Mania!” attractions at the Disney Parks.

    That's a great news, terrible news situation!
    Great because a Toy Story 3 update will make the game even cooler as some of the scenes are a bit generic. So that's great they are going to take a great game/ride and make it even better.

    The terrible news is because this will drive queue times up EVEN MORE as the TSM Vets that may have once passed it over will now be willing to wait all over again to try the updated game!

    Eh, maybe but Jim Hill isn't the most reliable or sources. I wouldn't doubt it though. Seems like it should be pretty easy to implement any kind of overlay to the game.

    I thought it was a cool ride, but I think I still prefer Buzz Lightyear in Tomorrowland just because of being able to shoot physical objects

    I think it is a fun ride. I like buzz lightyear better, but probably because i get a better score on it. Takes a little while to get thru the line,
    but it is definitely a fun ride to go on.

    Great addition to the park, didn't know it was there and spent most of the line insisiting it was the buzz Lightyear ride!

    I really enjoy this ride, but I think it's ridiculous when I see the standby line has like a 120 minute wait. Maybe I'm spoiled by fastpass, but I can't imagine ever waiting that long for any ride.

    I just rode this for the first time last week and absolutely loved it! Even though it was a 40 minute wait we got right back in line to go again!

    Oh and I loved the Mr. Potato Head part of the line! He talked to my Aunt and the ear thing is so awesome!

    It was only 40 minutes AND you got to see him take off his ear? You are extremely lucky.

    I def "Eh"ed this one. The ride is fine for what it is, but the line really does damper one's experience when it's 120 minutes and full of screaming tots.

    I have to agree.

    I'm not really a big fan of the shooting rides... MIB is really the only one I really, really like.

    I think using video screens is kind of a cop out.

    I expected more.

    I think that using video screens was the only way they could have made that ride. Without that you could not have seen your projectiles, and cause large amounts of destruction. The line can be endless but at least it is well themed.

    If the line area wasn't so well themed I think I would have been more upsetf about using screens but they clearly did spend extra time on the theme of the line area so I'm okay with the screens ^_^
