A fan-favorite Disney World ride is FINALLY reopening soon!
Buzz Lightyear’s Space Ranger Spin at Magic Kingdom officially reopens on April 8th, but Disney decided to have the ride soft open on March 30th. We’ve got plenty of details about the ride itself here, but a newly reopened ride also means NEW merch!
Buzz Lightyear’s Space Ranger Spin has soft opened, but that still means it can randomly close if needed, but it will officially open on April 8th. We’re happy to report that the store looks very similar to what it was before! This is the store that you’ll exit through after completing the ride.
Zurg is still in the corner keeping an eye on everything…
…and while photos usually automatically connect to your account, you’ll want to make sure you grab your photo from the photo wall. You can scan your MagicBand to ensure you can download it later. The was moved during the refurbishment and gives us so much more room to move around the store.
There is also a smashed penny machine!
Here’s a closer look at the designs.
The overall store still has the same aesthetic, which we don’t mind since the store is straight out of our childhoods.
There are three new items that the Cast Members were thrilled to show us. The first one is this awesome RSVLT shirt.
It has tons of Toy Story friends all over it.
There’s also this shirt that looks very similar to a RSVLT but is Disney’s own brand. We like that you have to get a little closer…
…to see the characters!
We think this baseball jersey is similar to other finds we’ve seen throughout the parks, but we think it would be perfect for an extra layer of sun protection in sunny Florida.
It has a 95 on the back to reference the year that the Toy Story movie came out!
Throughout the store, you’ll also find other Toy Story souvenirs that you might have already spotted throughout the park, especially in Toy Story Land. If you have any Disney World discounts, like Annual Passholders, don’t forget you can usually grab bottles of soda and water from inside stores and use your discount, rather than at outdoor vending, which doesn’t accept discounts.
We’ll be on the lookout for even more Disney World updates you need to know about and beyond. In the meantime, make sure you stay tuned to the Disney Food Blog for the latest Disney news and more.
