Buzz Lightyear Astro Blasters – Disneyland – Tokyo Disney – Toy Story (camera by Derika)

The Buzz Lightyear attractions are a series of attractions based on the Disney/Pixar film Toy Story 2 at Walt Disney Parks around the world. Although each ride may have a different name (as seen on the infobox to the right), all share the same plot and major characters. As each form of the attraction appeared, new technology has allowed the guest to better interact with the ride and even connect with personal computer users. The attractions use a third-generation Omnimover system, and are combination of a shooting gallery and a dark ride. The first ride featured laser guns that were not movable, but later versions featured the guns that are held in a holster and movable with the exception of a cord to keep them in the vehicle after the ride has ended. In 2005, the Walt Disney Company premiered a home version of the ride in the form of an internet video game that allows users to connect with guests at the parks. The scores of each guest from the dark ride are tallied with the internet gamer and increase the points won. There is also an attraction at Walt Disney World Resort’s DisneyQuest with the name “Buzz Lightyear’s Astroblasters”, where players ride and control cars while shooting balls at each other. Plot The back story of the ride revolves around the attempts of Evil Emperor Zurg to steal the “crystallic fusion cells” (ie, batteries) used to power the space vehicles of the “Little Green Men
