[The Mom]

Please play nicely. Thank you.

Please play nicely. Thank you.

Incidentally, the major theme of all three Toy Story films.

That's actually a great pun!

If I remember back from the announcement, the original intent was that the figures along the track would move, but was cut.

Originally they were to be animated figures...unsure of now

Wait, I thought the major theme of the series was the inevitability of mortality!

They are top tier fully animated figures. But they don't move when anyone is watching.

 

[Magic Feather]

I believe they are LM Figures, ala Jungle Cruise.

They certainly were originally. These look like they are as well. I wonder if they’ll talk? That can be distracting without moving mouths—like on Pooh or Peter Pan.

I think that’ll be an issue with Jessie, but Rex should be fine. If they do indeed move, I’d imagine that his movement would be his mouth (which is easy to articulate) as the Jenga Tower leans back and forth.

Imagining what could be done with the food here. Kid's can have "unique" tastes, and I think there's an opportunity to offer some one-of-a-kind creation here. Something Andy created, like a really bizzarre (but tasty) sandwich or snack. Also, based on the artwork I'm going to assume they'll offer that Woody themed thermos as a souvenir cup.

If it's sponsored by Mini Babybel I'm thinking some food truck style gourmet grilled cheese sandwiches.

 

[RSoxNo1]

Correct me if I’m wrong, but it looks like Jesse’s feet are attached to a mechanism of some sort.

Are the characters seen from the track going to have movement of some sort? I was under the impression that they would all be static figures.

There was some indication that the characters would be triggered at various parts of the coaster.

Let’s hope they can maintain this better than the interaction between Space Mountain and the Starry-o-Phonic sound!

Whats LM figures? I'm slightly stupid

"Limited motion" figures (so not full audio-animatronic figures like the Navi shaman).

 

[GlacierGlacier]

Whats LM figures? I'm slightly stupid

Limited Motion. It's basically a mannequin with a simple repeating motion, but it's a lot more durable than a standard AA. Common examples are the figures on the Jungle Cruise and some of the figures along the Rivers of America in Disneyland.

Did they turn that off? I rode Space last weekend and the ride seemed slightly better than the last few times. I’m thinking that may have been the reason because I don’t remember hearing the silly sound effects in the final helixes. Trim brakes before the last drop were still in place but at least I got the back seat.
