Andrewoplis Posted August 15, 2015 Share Posted August 15, 2015 Beautiful looking stuff! I thought I would have some big thing to say, but I'm really at a loss for words about this. It's like a dream come true! Can't wait to here more! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
COASTER FREAK 11 Posted August 15, 2015 Share Posted August 15, 2015 Just a question but, did they caption either of these art concepts to which park it would be in? Nope. Â Bob Iger actually announced this during the Live Action Film panel. The Parks and Resorts Panel is coming up in a little bit and there will hopefully be a lot more details about both new lands there. He made no mention of anything closing in either park. So there's more to be shared. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cfc Posted August 15, 2015 Share Posted August 15, 2015 So, at long last, much Internet speculation has come to pass. This is great news for the Studios park. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
viking86 Posted August 15, 2015 Share Posted August 15, 2015 The artwork looks fantastic! Should be a great and much needed addition to the Studios park. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robbalvey Posted August 15, 2015 Share Posted August 15, 2015 Just added to that last post that Toy Story Land has also been announced: http://themeparkreview.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=1620676#p1620676 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BDG Posted August 15, 2015 Share Posted August 15, 2015 That coaster sure was unexpected. Looks like a pretty big one too. It might even have a launch, going through those orange rings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nrthwnd Posted August 15, 2015 Share Posted August 15, 2015 Oops - something I don't see there, on first look. The Mater-like attraction (DCA) they were going to re-theme with Woody & Bullseye pulling a cart, etc. I don't see it there. Not complaining. Just wondering where it might be, if it is there? Â Just a thought - ooooo maybe they've made it an indoor attraction? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JLFG Posted August 15, 2015 Share Posted August 15, 2015 Wow, I guess nobody was expecting a coaster in the Toy Story Land. I thought it would be in a much smaller area, they sure exceeded expectations with this one. As for Star Wars Land, it looks amazing, even though I never watched the movies and have no idea what is all this. At last, I found it kinda odd they just announced one attraction for the Avatar Land, I remember seeing some type of boat ride in the concept art, or maybe they did and I'm not aware of it (?).

cfc Posted August 15, 2015 Share Posted August 15, 2015 The Slinky Dog coaster is a nice bonus--didn't see that one coming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robbalvey Posted August 15, 2015 Share Posted August 15, 2015 Wow, I guess nobody was expecting a coaster in the Toy Story Land. Some of us may have been expecting it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A.J. Posted August 15, 2015 Share Posted August 15, 2015 I was honestly expecting a copycat line with an RC Racer, parachute drop and Slinky Dog spinning ride. I love how it's so different! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IndoorSurvivalist Posted August 16, 2015 Share Posted August 16, 2015 The Toy Story area looks massive. Probably taking up a large space in the back of the park where Street of America is all the way back to the Motors show. The roller coaster probably taking up a majority of the space where the Stadium is now. Â My guess is that Star Wars will go next to Star Tours with the removal of the Backlot Express eating area, and then some of the backstage stuff in that area moved into the back of the park, maybe where tram maintenance and the Canyon are/used to be. Star Tours is likely to be redressed to match whatever the new Star Wars area ends up being. Hard to know what these other attractions are with their basic descriptions but I hope they don't all end up being different types of simulator rides. Â However it ends up going down, this is a really great and needed change for the Studios. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Genx24 Posted August 16, 2015 Share Posted August 16, 2015 Wow a Toy Story Land, with a coaster! This is awesome! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robbalvey Posted August 16, 2015 Share Posted August 16, 2015 Any idea when this stuff opens? They unfortunately didn't give any details as to when it opens, or what else will be closing/demolished to make room for all this stuff. Hopefully we get some of that news soon.

jarmor Posted August 16, 2015 Share Posted August 16, 2015 ^ Thanks. Â The star wars stuff got my attention (never seen the movies but I don't think I have to to "get it"). However, the Toy story stuff reeled me in! That coaster looks like its gonna be great for a family attraction and something IMHO the studios needs! California screamin east???

Koasterking48 Posted August 16, 2015 Share Posted August 16, 2015 (edited) I'm assuming they didn't give details on the coaster manufacturer, but the track looks like it could be Intamin. That seems a little odd considering most of WDW's coasters are almost all Vekoma. Looks like Star Wars Land and Toy Story Land look to be exactly the kind of revamp HWS needs. Great-looking concept art! Edited August 16, 2015 by Koasterking48 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DoinItForTheFame Posted August 16, 2015 Share Posted August 16, 2015 WOW! So glad to see this coming to WDW! Not only that, but I am excited for Soarin' Around The World! Considering how amazing Disney makes... EVERYTHING and the amount of detail in everything they do, I really can not wait to make a trip back down to Florida to visit the new Star Wars area!

MonorailORANGE Posted August 16, 2015 Share Posted August 16, 2015 The Slink Coaster reminds me a bit of DW's Fire Chaser Express! And upon looking at a higher res image, the coaster has a launch section! Mixed with some small hills this coaster could be a surprise hit!

Mrlittle Posted August 16, 2015 Share Posted August 16, 2015 Oh man, this is exactly what this park needed. I read about the Star Wars land earlier but missed the Toy land announcement. Did they mention anywhere about a new name for the park? I know it's rumored to change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robbalvey Posted August 16, 2015 Share Posted August 16, 2015 I'm assuming they didn't give details on the coaster manufacturer, but the track looks like it could be Intamin. I am 100% certain that the "coaster manufacturer's track" is not represented in the concept art in any way at all. Any resemblance to any company would be purely coincidental.

The only information was what is in that press release I posted. I'm sure they are waiting to announce more details to give them more things to talk about later.
