Toy Story Mania grand opening

Screamscape has reported that the grand opening will be 5/31, with soft openings this week except for 5/20 and 5/21.

WDW - Hollywood Studios

They also reported that there is no height requirement for this attraction.

the disney website doesn't have it listed yet (but their site really needs some work!)

We got to ride last week! When we first went by, people were coming out but they weren't letting people in. We tried one last time before we left DHS, and we got to go on the ride! It is very neat!!! (As my husband said, it's like the Buzz Lightyear ride on steroids!)

I am still crossing my fingers for a soft opening this weekend... but we won't be at DHS until Monday and it opens 4 days after that...... So I guess we'll wait till August.

I've seen the 5/31 official opening on several other sites as well.

I can't wait till the first week of Sept to see it in person.
I'm sure the children are anxious as well, just not as much as I am.

From what people are reporting, little ones cannot sit between two people (like on Buzz.) The mechanism for firing your shooter was causing problems and kids were getting "popped" by the people pulling the cord.

Just FYI!

That makes sense. I can see that it could be dangerous for small faces, with the way the little popper things flew around if we didn't hold on to them!
