Buzz Lightyear’s Space Ranger Spin
The Toy Story movies provide inspiration for a rambunctious 3-minute glide-past game that works like a shooting gallery you ride through. Passengers are equipped with handheld laser blasters and the means to rotate their vehicles, and as they travel it’s their mission to blast as many targets as they can, triggering minor effects. Scoring a bullseye is easier said than done, since the aliens are spinning, bouncing, and turning, but that’s all part of the fun. The track has roots as If You Had Wings, an Eastern Air Lines-sponsored ride dating to 1972. This version of the ride debuted in 1998, and in 2026, it emerges from a major refurbishment with refreshed blasters and upgraded vehicles. Lightning Lane priority: medium
