PHOTOS - Inside the interactive indoor queue set to open in July at Dumbo

While I also was hoping this would be something "more"...I am looking at it as we have traded two play areas for one. Nothing made my heart sink more than when they turned 20,000 Leagues into a play area for years. It was an absolute waste of space. Now THAT was a low point for the Magic Kingdom. And of course, there was the play area in ToonTown. Now it looks like there will just be this one area for kids to have a lil playground. That works. It's out of the way - and it is at least being tied into an already existing attraction - not replacing one. As far as it not being what we were promised - I can't remember the last time in the last 5 to 10 years that Disney hasn't "oversold" anything....

I could care less about the features shown in the video but then again I'm not the age group targeted. What I'm curious about is how they're going to handle those kids that want to go down the slide one more time, or that family of four that have absolutely no interest in the ride other than the air-conditioned space and the playground. If they have a ready system in place for these scenarios this has the potential to plus the way we view lines. Today it's a cheap-ish playground, tomorrow it could be an amazing pre-show room filled with bits to see before boarding an impressive E-Ticket. It all comes down to execution and how they plan to operate this one smoothly.

Though this appears to be only a small area of the queue, if this is the area for the toddlers, and there is other stuff for kids above 8 years old up to adults then that is fine. The area shown is obviously for very small kids. Teenagers, who also like to ride Dumbo, don't have much to do with this.

Dumbo is about as popular with teenagers as The Teletubbies.
