The tree as someone said is ruening the entire view. It´s a giant tree but the coaster is almost just as big.

They may not be allowed to remove the tree. I know in the UK some are covered under conservation laws and can only be removed if they are dying and therefore dangerous.

I take it Buzz has to be MEGA popular in France since he is in both parks in such a profound way.

Buzz is pretty damn popular all over. Presumably you've heard of the massive shortage of Buzz Lightyear toys? According to John Lasseter on the Toy Story 2 commentary, stores ordered 60,000 at first and ran out amazingly quickly. At the time of that commentary over 9 million figures had been sold.

Oh come on... they should have thought about what could be removed and couldn´t BEFORE they designed the land. If they can´t remove that tree then they shouldn´t have built a thing close to it that is supposed to be a toy in a garden. The tree ruins the already vage illusion. I think they were too lazy and cheap to think about it.

Sooo... having Buzz Lightyear all over Disneyparks is a good idea? Perhaps they should put him on top of the castle aswell? Toy Story Resort Paris. The same goes for Hong Kong.

I think the word for what you're doing is conflation TTT, you ask if TTT is popular, people reply that it is and then you make exaggerated suggestions insinuating people think it would be a good idea to have buzz on the castle. I don't think anybody has suggested anything like that but what may be clear is that from a business perspective the Toy Story franchise makes good sense.

You make a good point about the trees, they've made a point on a few occasions in publicity material on the age of the trees. I wonder if they were even steered towards this kind of area because they couldn't be removed? Meaning they could build around them in a way that one large attraction and show building could not, who knows!

I love that Rex is wringing his hands.

Same here!It looks really realistic!

[Scissorsboi]

As realistic as a plastic dinosaur can be!

Rex does seem to be out of proportion with the Buzz though, in the movies he towers over Buzz, but in the park he seems to be smaller? The area looks like it's nice, nothing amazing, nothing terrible, just nice. It's very similar to Flik's Fun Fair, and the details are there which add to the environment.

It's a nice area that'll stay in the limelight until Ratatouille opens, and then they'll stop advertising it and it'll become just another area of the park, which will hopefully soak up the Ratatouille queues a little. It is nice to see a more 'secluded' area in the park though, where there's greenery and winding pathways instead of flat areas of pathing and boxy studio buildings.

It's not the worst thing to have gone into Studios, but it's not the best.

Its seems that a large portion of yourselves fail to understand what this project is all about. There is a need for a new area to satisfy the needs of families in a quality environment, a need that could not be fulfilled by one attraction added to an existing land. From the photos added Toy Story Playland shows great build quality despite your personal preferences. In addition, please don't forget the current financial situation for both the company and the recent worldly events, they are not the same. Please take this into consideration. Your large attraction will come soon.

I clearly understand what this area is for - I just think they should have chosen another theme. They could have made a family environment - for instance going along with the things they already did. You could do a fun attraction under the themes of casting, physical effects or perhaps just going behind the scenes at Toon Studio. Make a movie related playground themed to Toon Studio. It just seems like they made Toon Studio (which isn't finished) and then made a new theme for this area. If they had kept it that way that would have been a start.

Secondly, I actually do not see how this is really family related. Yes, the theme is very family friendly, but the attractions are not. Look at Parachute Drop and RC Racer - they have height restrictions (RC Racer being the same as RNRC). That is not very family friendly in my opinion. The capacity is another problem in this area - smaller kids could be a problem in queues like Crush and I can see that coming to RC Racer too.

With that being said it seems to be good quality within the theme. The theme just doesn't allow them to make as creative and abnormally high quality that we know and love WDI for.

Regarding the comment I have highlighted this suggests that you do not find this top quality either, why excuse it with financial problems. Wouldn't have been better to wait with an attraction addition to when the money is there for a proper addition with high capacity and high quality themening and in the mean time use just some of the money spend on TSPL on refurbishing some of the current magic that is falling apart?

I realy like this one with the Tower in the background and green all around:

I'm sorry to double post but the interior of the barrel is ruining the theme isn't it? I've searched for this type of barrel and it is app. 10 cm tall. Surely that would not be enough for Andy to build such a complex thing using the toys that in the land almost is as tall as Buzz.

I was thinking that they made good quality within the mediocre theme, but this is not good quality. WDI use to be so thought trough and within the story all the way through. I'm sorry to say, but this isn't

Looking forward to the Rat pictures though

The inside of the barrel looks like it could almost be a mini boutique?

It will be, but unfortunatley no much needed toilets  :evil:

Im liking these new photo's, lots of colour and impact. I had a barrel of monkeys as a kid and would play for hours with them, cant wait to take my own photo's. One shot shows two barrels, one being the boutique and the other the opposite end of the tunnel in the Ratatoille (sorry cant spell) thread I guess.
