I must have missed it but who is reporting that they are now altering the plans again?

I really wish this whole land was scrapped and changed to a PixarLand, I would love to see more Pixar movies represented in this park and think they would fit best in one single very expandable "Land". I would also like to see StarWars moved to the front of the park so that Pixarland would have more room to grow in the back where they are currently planning to build StarWars. It seems like a no brainer to me and some really bad project management decisions.

 

[Chef Kronk]

Since construction on this likely hasn't even started, can we seriously just scrap this project?

I hate to say it, but this land is starting to sound even worse than TSPL.

I don't anything added would be a ride.....or even a show, really. But I bet it show up on the map as the land's 4th attraction.

So like a Toy Story version of Belle's or the Jedi Training?

I'm going to take a wild guess and say it's another meet n greet
Well hopefully the aesthetics of the land will feel a little better including slinky.

All I know is the land is being "tweaked", and that the order to start fabricating the coaster has been/was delayed. Still unclear as to if it has gone through yet. But I know it didn't go out in May as originally planned. Well, not the original plan. But Plan B.

Who is the roller coaster manufacture?

I was playing around with Google maps and Sketchup and was trying to build a cohesive land with both Ride and Go Seek as well as Remy's from Paris and trying to fit either a Gusteau's or Harryhausen's behind TSMM (in the TSL planned area). I'm sure its possible but everything I came up with looked like a cluster#### of Pixar. Not Pretty.
THAT BEING SAID, there is two new family rides right there, add Mater in somewhere and while adults may not be as happy, the little ones would suddenly adore DHS. Perhaps they could keep the studio look to mesh it all together or some form of cityscapes, theyre better at that stuff than I am.
Yes I know, pipe dreams, but clones are cheaper and easier to build correct? Maybe I'll spend a little more time in Sketchup this weekend.

Who is the roller coaster manufacture?

I don't know if we know for sure, but the last few coasters at Disneyworld were from Vekoma.

 

[Disneyhead'71]

Who is the roller coaster manufacture?

Vekoma is their manufacturer of choice. So I am assuming that is who is building it.

If an added attraction is Belle like attraction, want there already one originally planned in the original concept?

Or could we be looking at a Casey Jr. DISTraction(patent pending)

Yes, but I believe this will be smaller and less elaborate. They want it for the added capacity.

Where in the land are they looking to place this? Where Al's Toy Barn was supposed to go?

No idea. But that end of the land is pretty sparse.

I'm sort of surprised they didn't take the opportunity with the LM Theatre right next door to plug in the Toy Story Musical from the cruise ship.

I mean, it looks super weird and i've heard mixed to negative reviews about it, but it would seemingly be a fairly inexpensive move for Disney to add fresh entertainment so I wouldn't put it past them.

I'm interested to see how they are going to hide stuff with site lines. Back where TSL is going you have the parking garage and the a 4 story building( I can't remember what it's called)

TSL is supposed to take place in Andy's yard, so it's conceivable that a parking garage was built next to his house.

Trees and possibly scrims. Maybe.

I take it you haven't heard anything about changes?

Budget rumblings? Yes. Trying to see what I can pin down.
