Alien Swirling Saucers is a spinning ride at Toy Story Land in Disney's Hollywood Studios. First announced at the 2015 D23 Expo, it opened on June 30, 2018, as part of the area's opening. [1]
Alien Swirling Saucers uses the same ride system that powers Disney California Adventure's Mater's Junkyard Jamboree and Tokyo Disneyland's The Happy Ride with Baymax . [2] The ride system shares similarities to the classic "Cuddle Up" ride from Philadelphia Toboggan Company and the classic Whip ride from William F. Mangels. [3] It was manufactured by Zamperla. [4] The attraction is themed as a play set that Andy won at Pizza Planet. [5]
In 2018, it was announced that it would be constructed in Walt Disney Studios Park at Disneyland Paris as a part of its 2-billion-dollar expansion. However, more recent concept art has silently cancelled its inclusion in the expansion. [6]
