Toy Story Mania at Tokyo DisneySea

Toy Story Midway Mania! (also known as Toy Story Mania!) is an interactive 4-D theme park attraction, located at three Disney theme parks: Disney's Hollywood Studios at the Walt Disney World Resort, Disney California Adventure at the Disneyland Resort and Tokyo DisneySea at Tokyo Disney Resort.

Designed by Walt Disney Imagineering and inspired by Disney·Pixar's Toy Story franchise, the attraction was first unveiled during a press conference at Walt Disney World in January 2007. The Florida version was officially opened by Tim Allen on May 31, 2008, on the same date that the Buzz Lightyear action figure launched onboard Space Shuttle flight STS-124 (whose objective was to deliver the largest module of the space station - Kibō, the Japanese Experiment Module pressurized section, developed by JAXA),[1][2] while the California version officially opened on June 17, 2008.[3][4] The Japan version of the attraction opened on July 9, 2012.[5]
