Located on the former Mickey Avenue, Toy Story Midway Mania melds a dark ride with a 3D video game. You ride in spinning cars, stopping to play six different midway carnival games featuring Toy Story characters. You "shoot" at virtual targets using a pull-string "gun" that launches virtual pies, rings, pins, eggs and suction darts, scoring points with every hit.

A one of a kind attraction. I always unlock something new each time I ride, and it gets harder every ride! DO NOT MISS THIS!!! 10/10 - Eric Cartman

Greatest thing since sliced bread. 10 out of 10. - Matt Babiak

I love to play against my dad in this fun ride! There are 5 different games you play and all of them are a blast! - Matthew Harackiewicz

This is my favorite ride in the whole world I love compiting with my family and I love the triology of toy story 10/10 - Giovanny Cruz

Crazy cues for a lame shooter thats not a patch on Men in Black at Universal ad thats nearly 10 years older also very very glitchy have yet to go through it when alls working - Tom Cunningham

Worth however long you wait for this but we always got a FP for it. So technologically advanced and brilliantly themed. Most fun I had in Disney and loved competing with my family for top score. Also got months top score on my 3rd ride. Please note that it is the most popular ride there, so queues will be in excess of an hour on quiet days. Get a FP as soon as you arrive as they run out by about 9.30am! - James McGee

A must see... better then any other rides you have ever experienced.... - Brendan Harrison

Step aside Buzz Lightyear's Space Blast, Men in Black and every other shooting ride in the world, Toy Story Midway Mania has arrived. This is a new generation of theme park ride, fun, interactive and competitive. The themeing is excellent which makes the queue seem much quicker. 10/10 - Ben Price

It is a great ride, lots of fun. Having to go up and down the stairs can be a challenge. It is a giant video game with you in the center, makes it even better. 8/13 - Mitchell Botwin

Get a FP first thing in the morning. Greatest ride in DHS! My first 10 I've given. 10/10 - D H

A really fun, cute interactive ride. BY FAR the best of all the "ride around and shoot at things" ride. - Heather Olson

Toy Story Midway mania exceeded all my expectations. From the brilliant queue to the ultra efficient loading procedures to the massively fun games themselves, I never imagined the attraction would be so addictive! I dare say it is the perfect "shooter". - James Rao

FUN!!! There is no way around it, this is the most fun I've had on a kids ride ever! Its basically a Toy Story themed shooting gallery video game, but it's a blast! It's very enjoyable and good for all ages. This is the perfect kids ride! 10/10 - Bob Liebe
