MK New Buzz Lightyear’s Space Ranger Spin Updates Coming to Walt Disney World

I’ve been on the new version. It’s an improvement. I like it a lot.

Also did the post-ride survey.

You have to hit the black dot in the middle of the target to score points. Exactly in the middle. It’s harder than it sounds.

Target values depend on the color of the outside ring, I think:
  • Black/plain = normal value
  • White
  • Rainbow
  • Video = highest value
So the hack of knowing the three high-score targets to just repeatedly hit and max your score out is gone?

So it’s mostly the graphics from old sign over the door placed onto a new sign with fewer things in the background. So much for “new and exciting”, I guess.

It looks totally different from what was there before. The only thing that’s really the same is the green and purple color scheme, which makes sense because those are Buzz’s colors

Hmmm...

Purple "Buzz Lightyear's"? ☑️
Green "Space Ranger Spin"? ☑️
Space-y/starry background? ☑️
Fewer things in the background? ☑️

Oh, and they got rid of the Microsoft Word 3D text for the green stuff.

But other than that, sure, it looks totally different...

Every day we move towards a more visually cohesive Tomorrowland.
One small step at a time. But we're moving.
are we? feels like a baby step every 3 years or more.....As long as half of the attractions are either shut down(SGE) or have nothing to do with the theme of Tomorrowland (MILF), we don't really seem to be getting anywhere... Aside from painting the rocks, which I guess are the only placemaking set pieces we are getting, there has been a whole lot of nothing going on in Tomorrowland. and now I am sure we will get nothing for at least another 5 years while they build Carsland and Villains....so maybe in 2031 they can begin working on reopening all of Tomorrowland with attractions that actually support the theme? Maybe a speedway that feels like it is in the proper context and style to be in Tomorrowland....Maybe a worthy entrance to the land instead of "rocks"....because rocks always feel futuristic? Honestly I would have preferred them to tackle Tomorrowland before ever pushing into the ROA area....Make the park that exists the best it can be before expanding...then during the 5 years of construction, at least the land opposite the construction zone would be in great shape, beautiful, and fully functioning.... Vs what we have now ...

Why would they change those things? Green and purple are Buzz's colors and the ride takes place in space, so there should be stars in the background. Seems to me like it makes sense to use those same motifs but make it less cluttered and more modernized. They didn't need to change stuff just for the sake of change. To me, it's sleeker and stands out better than the old sign.
