Is it possible Toy Story Land could get an expansion or a additional ride at Hollywod Studios?
Yeah probably not. I was really hoping for a dark ride of some kind for Toy Story.Probably no new expansion at the parks for years.
It is expanding with a new restaurant otherwise there is no other room for expansion in that land.
Not a lot of room for much. let alone an attractionwhat about that backstage area behind alien swirling saucers and left of the swge entrance? a path could be built by the entrance to star wars land.
here is a little mockup to show you what i mean:Not a lot of room for much. let alone an attraction
Yeah. That building is maintenance base. It’s something they’d rather not have to move.here is a little mockup to show you what i mean:View attachment 464785
Unless it's vertical. But not sure how that could work without sightline issues. I guess they could theoretically put a flat on the opposite side of the coaster inside the helix where SDD blasts up a hill to go through a series of small bunny hops. But even then it'd have to have a very small footprint to allow for both a queue and the attraction. How large is Triceratop Spin?

I agree with everything you said! This would be awesomeFollow up after checking area in question in Google Earth. The space mentioned could theoretically accommodate:
1) TriceraTop Spin - would fit there perfectly and allow for a better, more detailed switchback queue. Not ideal but it'd give TSL another attraction. DAK would lose it's spinner but Dinorama's been a dud for a while now. Re-themed to Trixie from Toy Story 3.
2) Green Army Men Parachute Drop - also works in this space but height plays a factor. Queue space would be trickier to develop. Not sure if it would have sightline issues but a possible workaround could be to give guests a "Top Secret Mission" to find targets located in TSL to further prevent their eyes from wandering toward the horizon where sightline issues are most prevalent.
3) Other options? A character-themed Musik Express (WDI used SlinkyDog in the International parks) Tilt-a-Whirl (Barrel of Monkeys?) etc.
Something as simple as a giant sprinkler head for a Splash area could be developed as a fun way for children to cool off. It's worth-noting that R.C. the remote control car character in the Toy Story franchise sports some "splashy" decals on his spoiler and vehicle body. Just say'n.
There's still room without expanding TSL should TDO/WDI wish to explore similar options.
I agree. I wonder how they could theme it or re do it to look like you are still in Toy Story Land. If there is also space maybe they could build a Al's Toy Barn in the space?Given there already is a dark ride of some form (Toy Story Mania) at DHS and another (Space Ranger Spin) at MK, I really don't see Toy Story getting more dark rides.
Biggest change I would do to Toy Story land would be adding back in permanent meet and great locations that existed on the old Pixar street area. Having outdoor locations without aircon for the meets doesn't make any sense.

I agree. It would be great to see a interactive water play area or a Woodys Round up show. Like the one that was rumored to replace Country Bears.Upon further reflection and with help from @MisterPenguin in learning how to use Google Earth, while the space may work there's the issue of guests going under a coaster which Disney, by my recollection has never done before likely because of safety reasons. So... back to square one I guess. Although I do think there is room for a RC splash zone area or even a little Woody's Roundup interactive game. In order to accommodate a Parachute Drop ride or the armchair relocation of TriceraTop Spin, Disney would have to install nets or "in theme" protection for guests.
But I guess it could be a toy play-set of Al's Toy Barn. That would be kinda lame I guessAl's Toy Barn was part of the original plans but then it got cut, I believe. Although it doesn't fit the "backyard" premise so it's omission is probably a good thing.
