There are a total of 4 videos, one of the queue and 3 of the actual attraction. The Video is actually pretty clear and gives you a nice preview of the attraction.

Wow looks like a good attraction. At least the guns are removable 8)

 

 

When is it scheduled to open exactly?

[YoshiFan]

Looks like a lot of fun. Buzz Lightyear's Space Ranger Spin is one of my favorite attractions at WDW and with the removable guns, this version looks even better.

[SharkTums]

Dude!! It has removable guns!?!? That's awesome! The Tokyo one was much better than the Florida one in part because of the guns, it's nice to see they went with those. So is the ride in full on Soft Open Stage now? Maybe I'll get to ride it!

Yeah, the mobile guns instantly gives it potential to be better than the WDW version, but will it be better than the Tokyo version?

So I just watched all the videos, and I honestly can't tell if the ride is any different or not from either the Tokyo or WDW versions! I don't know any of them well enough to make a comparison. The stuff in that video looked so 'similar' to the other two that if someone showed me a video and said it was the Tokyo or WDW version, I wouldn't know the difference. I guess that's a good thing, because both WDW and Tokyo versions were good!

 

All I know is that all three versions just look like "A bunch of black lit space stuff with "Z" targets on them."

 

But the mobile guns is certainly an improvement!

 

--Robb "Now if USH got MiB....THAT would be awesome!" Alvey

[Pure Randomness]

Lets hope it would be better just for the bragging rights It doesn't matter to me personally, as long as it is remotely entertaining, I am fine with it

[Sir Clinksalot]

I actually thought the Buzz AA character in both the Queue and the ride looked very cool. I haven't ridden the WDW or the Tokyo version so I am actually looking forward to this.

 

Of course I we won't be making a trip to DL JUST to ride this, but it looks promising.

[socalMAN123]

Looks awesome! Can't wait to ride it! Hey Robb, the only difference between the one in Japan and the one here is that Buzz speaked Japenese!

[Hattuchili]

It looks nice. I heard they build the same Buzz version from DL in DLRP right now. I hope they will make it there in the same way as good.

IMO any ride that you get to shoot stuff in is tight

I might be going to Disneyland in the next few days and I'm going to get some pics of that ride when I go.

[robbalvey]

Yeah, I mean the ride is going to be fun and people are going to love it. I'll be honest and say it's not something I'll make a special trip down for, but it probably will be something I'll ride every trip I make, as long as there are Fastpasses available.

I didn't realize it opens March 17. That's great.. something to ease the pain of not having Space Mountain when I go there next month.

I can't speak for Tokyo, but I know WDW does have Buzz Lighyear AA, and it's really kick ass.
