Toy Story Land expansion announced for Disney's Hollywood Studios

Are we back at this subject again? Really? Pam Hates Penguins invites people to call you Pam. Deal with it. Otherwise, change your username. My name is not Goofy or Dad. Do you see me getting bent because someone calls me Goofydad? No. Because that is my username. If they choose to call me Kevin then that is fine too. I say either get over being called Pam or change your username. No one in their right mind is going to start calling you "You".

Correct. Which is why I eventually changed my name from Farty McFartface_210.

I believe that was the scenic shop. Creative costuming is next to that.

Any more updates?

Any more updates?

Since Thursday?

 

[DHSCM]

Construction update: everything in red is demoed the two little bungalows outside of the red are currently being used for WDI the little part of the building in blue is still being demoed. A lot of rubble and site prep.

 

[Thanks phoenicians]

With SWL now seemingly running a bit behind do any insiders know what the status is with TSL? Is it still scheduled for 18 or is it too behind schedule?

Permits were filed for foundation work the other day so things seem to be moving along.

Are the attraction going to be off the shelf rides like people are describing? Or were they kidding!

I don't know that they are truly "off the shelf", but they are two pretty standard ride systems. The Buzz ride appears to be the same as Mater's Junkyard Jamboree at DCA, and the coaster looks pretty standard but it may be a custom layout designed specifically for this land.

Any chance this coaster is double launch? I know the one part definitely appears to be, but the lift hill doesn't look like a typical lift hill either. Would be cool to see a double launch since I think it would be a WDW first

 

[ToTBellHop]

Two launches.

Summer 2018 at this point.

Carry on.

DHS seems to love it's launched coasters.

It's a family coaster so how intense can the launches be? 0-15mph in 2.8 seconds?

Fire Chaser Express at Dollywood is a family coaster that has launches, they aren't very intense, but it's probably the closest thing to what it will be at DHS.

More like 35-40 mph.

You know. Faster than Space Mountain. And probably Big Thunder Mountain.

And I would assume the launches would be more gradual a la Hulk than the stop to launch style of Rock 'N' Rollercoaster. That would help keep the intensity down.

I do love multi-launch family coasters. Verbolten in Busch Gardens Williamsburg is fantastic and has 2 launches, one that goes to almost 50+ miles/hour. Height requirement is 48" though, this is probably going to be a bit shorter.

 

[Disneyhead'71]

So, a multi launch family coaster. So this is going to be like Cheetah Hunt?




Ok, sorry that was a joke. No, it won't be like Cheetah Hunt. Cheetah hunt is good.
