Summary: Attention Junior Space Rangers! Buzz Lightyear needs your help to defeat the Evil Emperor Zurg! As you move through the attractions queue, Buzz Lightyear himself explains how you need to help zap Zurg’s plans to steal the batteries of toys everywhere. You then board your XP-37 space cruiser with mounted laser cannons for the journey to fight Zurg and his minions. The space cruisers have a control that allows you to spin them in a full 360 degree circle, allowing you to target enemies on both sides of the ride. Score points as your laser fire connects with targets throughout the game. You eventually jump into hyperspace for the final showdown between the Space Rangers and the forces of Zurg. As you exit the ride, you can see what level of Space Ranger you’ve become based on the points accumulated during the game. Pictures are taken during the ride, which can be viewed and/or purchased as you exit.
Comments: This is an interactive combination of ride and video game. Each guest shots lasers at targets and accumulate points, which are tabulated in the ride vehicle as you play. Children with auditory stimulation issues may find the ride too loud – there are laser sounds firing constantly, as well as music and dialogue from the characters. The hyper-space tunnel can be frightening with the strobe lights and sounds. Guests enter and exit the vehicle on moving walkways, which can be difficult for children with transition issues. If you have concerns, we recommend you “preview” this ride by riding the Tomorrowland Transit Authority, which provides you a glimpse of one section of the attraction.
