News Tron coaster coming to the Magic Kingdom

[_caleb]

Looks like a nice attraction and area. Wish it was a little longer ride however.

The gardens in the middle of the flyover actually look quite nice.

Alright, now that I've ridden twice and collected my thoughts, just wanted to say this is a solid addition to the Magic Kingdom. The ride's length will definitely make people upset depending on how long their wait is, but new capacity that isn't replacing any old attractions is a good thing in my book. The courtyard area is great and the BGM loop is lifted straight from Daft Punk's film score. Honestly my least favorite part has to be seeing so much of the show building from the circus side.

Just an interesting little note, the Lightning Lane and VQ touch points have Mickey on them! Every ride from 2017-2022 tried to theme their touch points for immersion, making this the first new ride since Frozen Ever After to have Mickey's head on the touch points. I don't know why I care about this, but it's nice to see that little piece of recognizibility back.

I'm hearing rumors of lots of people not fitting very easily in the seats

This is going to be a major problem, especially for those guests who purchased ILL. Remember when Pandora opened? It’s going to have nothing on this.

I am sure they can give refunds when necessary.

 

[IMDREW]

I really hoped they’d do something to hide that green barn.

Haha, I know restrooms aren't too exciting but I always love cataloging the inside of everything that's new! No matter how underwhelming it may be lol.

I also have some short shaky-cam phone videos of the queue, but can't seem to upload them right now. Everything is a carbon copy from Shanghai though, aside from language.

I was just teasing a bit. I actually enjoy pictures of everything as well. Plus, you never know, the restrooms might end up being more exciting and, depending on the person's need, the ride time could be significantly longer than TRON.

I guess it was mentioned somewhere and I missed it. How long is the ride? Thanks.

 

[GhostHost1000]

Everything isn’t perfect. You’ll see it one day.

Like 80-90 seconds, I think? But that's including the braking at the end to disembark etc.; I think from launch to what is essentially the end of the ride is about 60 seconds.

 

[tparris]

I’ll be posting nighttime photos later tonight

Also got a shot of the new restrooms, no guests inside. View attachment 696285

Ever since I was a boy, I’ve always dreamed of peeing in the Grid.

Thought you were kidding for a minute. No pun intended. A one minute ride? Is there a ride that short anywhere else in Disney? I’m trying to think of my 30+ trips down since the 70’s and I can’t think of one.

Barnstormer

Maybe the smaller portion sizes that Christine McCarthy mentioned awhile will help with that.

 

[DisneyDebRob]

Barnstormer

Forgot about that one. So it’s about as long as the Barnstormer. I guess I was expecting more.
