News New projectors Coming to Buzz Lightyear's Space Ranger Spin

This ride desperately needs upgrades/full gut. While it won't be the later, any upgrades are appreciated at this point.

Sadly the same can be said for most of tomorrowland

Geezzzz, so they are replacing the light bulbs?

Time to close up this thread then.

How about using the set pieces from the soon-to-be-defunct Buzz at Tokyo Disneyland ?

The Tokyo version looks soooooo much better

Probably for the same reason they never sent the electric cars from Hong Kong's Autopia over...

The entire front of Tomorrowland needs extensive work. My hope is that once Frontireland is finished, they’ll start focusing their efforts on Tomorrowland. With the new kiddie car ride included, hopefully that allows them to rip out the Speedway as well and do something better with that large space. That said, I think the rumored Moana ride in Adventureland will be done before this.

Maybe Disney Parks is waiting to see if Pixar’s Elio is a mega hit to incorporate the characters into an updated Tomorrowland.
After seeing the trailer for Elio, I am not convinced it will be a super hit.

What is the reason? Different electronics?
Similar to how Disneyland Paris had to rewire and retrofit Tokyo’s Fantallusion nighttime parade?

This ride needs gutting and starting from scratch. If you ride the other versions around the World, you'll notice how bad this attraction really is. The targets don't even light up and make noises when you hit them to confirm you actually hit them like they do in all the other versions around the World. The mounted guns also need to be changed as they are not mounted on any other version and give you much better accuracy.

I dare say they can't be bothered to hope it's a winner. Elio has to go into Tomorrowland, regardless of box office success. Else the land loses it's identity following in the footsteps of Frontierland. It's a shoo-in unless they're just stupid.

One thing Buzz (or whatever similar attraction overlay were to happen) is that it's an onmimover aka super high capacity.

I do think it's time for a new theme. Two other Buzz attractions have already been or are being re-themed (HK and Tokyo).

Doesn't one of them have the AntMan ride instead? Was it a buzz ride before Antman or was it originally built as Antman?

Ant-Man and The Wasp: Nano Battle! replaced Buzz Lightyear Astro Blasters at Hong Kong Disneyland. A Wreck-It Ralph ride is replacing Buzz Lightyear Astro Blasters at Tokyo Disneyland.

What's cool about Ant-Man and the Wasp is that it has an original MCU story (as much as there is one) with a villain from Captain America. I haven't been on it personally, but nice to have a unique storyline

Yeah, about that last part…
