The ride takes the whole building

If I recall it was the former Who wants to be a Millionaire stage before it got gutted and added the second track for TSM..

Yea it became a "flex space" for quite some time and was used during the prolonged Frozen Summer Fun, before becoming the third track.

Not 100 percent sure how accurate the third track side is since this is not my picture but this gives you a starting point to see what is going on in the former soundstages.

gotach thanks! I didnt know there were 3 tracks, I thought just the 2. Was thinking it would be cool if the 3rd track didnt exist, they gutted the building and made an indoor toy stoy playland like ariels playland in tokyo. A big shaded indoor place for young kids, maybe even put in a few small rides? And make it a breezeway between tsl and pixar place alley creating a new entrance/exit for the land.

It originally had two tracks, but the third was added in 2016.

As cool as that would be, it NEEDS that third track lol. Same with Soarin and its third theater. The lines without it were insane

Good thing those were done years ago before Bob Cheapskate became CEO.

I wonder if it still needs it now considering that was before TSL or Galaxy's Edge existed. DHS is still down on attractions overall, so it probably does, but it definitely has more options than it did when that third track opened.

Not that they'd ever do it, but it would be worth exploring turning the third track into something else eventually.

I doubt they’d explore it. I could see them maybe turning that street into something small but I doubt it. I think they’ll eventually just close those gates and call it a day

If I'm not mistaken, it was Soundstages 2 & 3 that were knocked together to house Millionaire. That space then became the original TSMM. Soundstage 1 was the flex space that became the ride's 3rd track.

You are not mistaken. Correct answer, you sir are now a millionaire! (I don't remember how that game was played lol)

Just to bounce off of this, the walkway that used to be a part of Backstage Pass was removed for the load area.

Every time I think about the 3rd Toy Story Mania track I get sad remembering how close we got to that building becoming the Monsters Inc Door Roller Coaster instead

I thought the door coaster was rumored for the launch bay building

 

[J4546]

any pics of door coaster concepts?

It's such an old concept it's pretty much been rumored for every single big building in that park.

The concept inside the Sorcerer hat was going to be a pretty short ride though.

No, the closest it ever came to existence was next to TSM where the third track is today. There was concept art, site plans, and full engineering documents produced. Even some elements built. In fact if you know/knew what you were looking for there were a few rather large elements constructed as part of the transition from Toy Story to Monsters
