Tokyo Disneyland Resort Expansion

[Stripes]

The budget is north of $250 million (current yen-dollar conversion about $277 million). That seems pretty high for a standard hotel, but I really wouldn't know.

Is the Toy Story hotel taking the spot of a previous "Official Hotel?"

It's taking the spot of one of the hotels' convention center

It'll probably be Disney's nicest looking value resort.

For comparison, the deluxe Tokyo DIsneyland Hotel cost 35 billion yen to build (a bit over $300 million today).

Anyone know the price of Shanghai's Toy Story Hotel?

 

[lazyboy97o]

Was this hotel also supposed to be a Tomorrowland hotel?

Do you know the opening date for the BaTB ride? and for the other rides opening at TDS (Peter Pan, Tangled, Frozen...)?

BATB and Baymax open in 2020. TDS Fantasy Springs will open some time in 2022 or 2023.

If the leak of the information is correct we might see it winter 2019 and Only The New Mickey and Minnie Look are the only ones will debut in Tokyo,
Since you know its been in the backstage for quite sometime now, And whats really strange is that thay haven’t debuted yet in Tokyo parks.

Looks like it’s going to be spectacular. Those AAs are veering on uncanny valley.

 

[Disney Analyst]

Oh my god. How she is walking forward looks so great.

 

[Peter Pano]

Wow, finally some inside look at this attraction, and it looks gorgeous. Now we start to see where all the money for it went. Those animatronics are truly next level, they look like they stepped (literally!) right out of the movie!

 

[croboy82]

This attraction truly looks spectacular! They look so real, it's almost scary.

 

[Peter Pano]

What makes me especially happy is the remarkable old school approach OLC and WDI took with the ride. It is a joy to see this abundance of animatronics, props and huge, beautiful sets, updated to the latest state-of-the-art technics. The animatronic bodies move so fluently and their faces seem to be all physically animated, not projection mapped. And they look great. In this day and age, where new dark rides rely more and more on screens or at least heavy use of projection, this seems almost like a bold move and I can't applaud them enough for that.

All that I am left to hope for now is that the scenes will add up to a bit more than a book report, but I remain optimistic.

This ride was exclusive to them, right? I mean, they can't duplicate it in any other park...
