WDS next year's park map ! With Toy Story Playland !

[DLRP_bopazot]

found on Disney Central Plaza ! Hey Hong Kong People go to WDS and ride your new little land in Preview at the WDS !

[Olivier]

I'm not really excited by that "playland", but any new addition at the WDS is welcome, I guess. Anyway, do you know when it opens?

[Tommie]

The map is to be found in the 2010 brochure. On WDSfans.com and Disneyandmore.blogspot.com there is also another version, with a different angle.

There its is said that it will open around July 2010.

And although I too would have preferred some more 'sophisticated' attractions, every addition is welcome for WDS!

And I must say, it doesn't look too bad either. It will definitely improve routing in the park. There will actually be a possibility to walk around the park in a circle.

In Chinese culture, walking/crawling under someone's butt and between the legs means losing dignity... I assume it's also the same in Western culture

Nope.

I don't think Toy Story Playland is a bad choose its just a bit disapointing it wasn't something else. The Studios did a good job creating Toon Studios and I would of prefer an expansion on this idea instead of building a new land on one set of characters who's presence already exist in the other park. Its Toy Story over kill, thats what it is, especially with so many others characters that could have filled the space with new attractions. On the plus side for the park, I bet since its building the same land in Hong Kong, Disney probarely saved a bit on cost.

To coincide with the release of Toy Story 3 perchance?

Olivier means that the WDS is a park where Disney build whatever ride right now . That's why i said that they should rename the park .

That's not of any concern in the West, but maybe that's why we haven't seen the Big Buzz in renders of HKDL's version. Not to mention, at HKDL, it would have been a major eyesore from adventureland...though halfpipe coaster might have similar visibility.

WDS is such a cute little park. I can't wait to finally make my pilgrimage to Paris in a few years!

What ? I grew up here and i've seen this park from groundbreaking till what it is today .

Sure the WDS are different from what it was when it opened but it's still messy . They should close down Armaggeddon and replace it like they did for Disney Channel .

[Hathaway Browne]

Cute is not often a word associated with the park, even if it does have "cute" proportions.

Still a long way to go for the park IMO, I just hope it doesn't end up a hodge-podge like it is at the moment.

[jacoaster]

I'm really scared WDS is going to turn into a park full of random attractions which don't fit anywhere else. That's the way it seems to be going at the moment.

I do wonder what happened to those Theatre District and Action Studio placemaking projects.

One thing we can note is that they have clearly left space for something to the left of Toy Story Playland. It shows that they haven't completely ruled out the idea of a Hollywood Boulevard expansion...... yet.

Hey, I really like Armageddon, more than most of the offerings of Fantasyland.

I love armageddon but wish you could skip the preshow. When I have seen it even the cast members seem to admit it is a bit lame. I love the actual show though and the reactions of the 'audience' are great!
