Video: Characters added to new Toy Story roller coaster at Disney World
Disney has shared a new video showing the installation of the first “Toy Story” characters onthe new Slinky Dog Dash coaster in Toy Story Land.
In summer of 2018 Toy Story Land is scheduled to open at Hollywood Studios in Disney World. One of the rides is is Slinky Dog Dash, a new kind of roller coaster. According to the storyline, “Rex and Jessie decided to help Andy build a rollercoaster using his Mega Coaster Play Kit in his backyard by stringing up the lights on towers of blocks. Rex, of course, has got tangled up in the lights, but Jessie is nearby to help,” according to the Disney Parks Blog.
The idea of the coaster is to feel as if you are riding on a slinky dog. “The vehicles and the track are melded together to act both for a fun effect for people on it and a big kinetic effect for the people who are watching it,” Bob Vignec, staff project engineer for Toy Story Land, has said.
