Indeed, the site Good Housekeeping reveals that 400 giant blocks – these colorful wooden toys in cylindrical, square, round, triangular shapes, etc. – will be spread over the 4 corners of the park, which will also contain a footprint of Andy’s foot which will measure no less than 7.5 meters in length.

Roller coasters and bumper cars

Toy Story's flagship ride is the Slinky Dog Dash, a roller coaster suitable for the whole family featuring Zigzag, the famous spring dog that is part of the toy troupe. The “alien swirling saucers” (“Alien Swirling Saucers” in VO), the principle of which seems to take over that of the bumper cars, is of course a reference to these little characters that the menacing Sid tries to catch in the claw machine . Toy Story Mania, which takes on the appearance of a life-size Guignol theatre, will offer young and old alike shooting games that consist of knocking down 3D targets. As for Woody's Lunch Box, which is shaped like a bowl in which children's snacks are usually slipped, it is the park's main restaurant where many visitors can enjoy a well-deserved meal after all these emotions. Finally, the Incredicoaster which will take place on the enormous “Pixar Pier” is also defined by roller coasters which however seem more perilous than those of the Slinky Dog Dash. Some nods to the movie The Incredibles 2 which will be released this year will be integrated into the sensational attraction. We let you discover all these pretty installations in pictures...
