Yeah, the Buzz blasters are attached to the ship, unfortunetally. That's why I personally think Buzz Lightyear Astroblasters in Disneyland is much better. When I went to WDW to see the Buzz Lightyear Space Ranger Spin, I was like this is cheap! You can't even aim well at the targets, and all the targets are the same value. (no offence to those people who like it)

Well, The BLSRS is Fun, yet aiming is tough.

Space Mountain in WDW is about to get one in Jan 08 or so the rumor is. But the only thing expected is a track smoothing and quee altered some. Yes the guns are attached in buzz,.

You need practice, Plus the ship spins 360 degrees, so you can manage to aim at them all. and the points are based on the distance, They are not worth all the same! Some are worth 10,000, 100, 1000, and 500. I heard there is one that is worth 100,000.

Yes, as Facny stated, SM is to go down for a long refurb in January of 08.

There is also a very strong chance that the Jungle Cruise will go down at the same time. This, however, could be done in stages. So far, there are 2 rumors behind this. The ride can be themed as per the new JC movie coming out or another rumor is that Timon and Pumba will be added to the ride.

Need I remind you that the Buzz in WDW was there first so it has lower technology. And SM is about to get a 1 year+ rehab starting Jan 08

For the Space Mountain, the closest "possible" beginnning date is January of 2008 and the refurb would last from anywhere between March 2008 or all the way to a year later in January 2009. I read so many different things but the hopes are a complete overhaul of the attraction. Some other said things are Just new cars, just new station, and if they do overhaul it the possibilty of a name change which no one likes. Again these are all just possibilities nothing else.

It will be really good if Disney decides to change Space mountain because ive been to WDW a bunch of times in a year and everytime i go in a day to space mountain theres atleast 1 time that they have to shut down the ride because of technical difficulties so its time that they start to change it. But the time for it is gonna be very long and SM is a very popular ride so hopefully they can make the time shorter and it would be great if Disney decides to change the Space mountain cars from being 1 person in each row to 2 people in each row like the one is Disneyland.

And about Jungle Cruise.. The ride is good and sorta boring right now but If they start adding timon and pumba and other things then it wont be boring anymore so more ppl will go to that ride more.

And about Buzz lightyear at WDW, I personally think that Disney needs to upgrade it more mostly to the one in Disneyland so it can be way better.

Well that comes with every ride but it really needs an update becuase the track is so bumpy and well it's out of date sort of speak...

yea but not every ride and with space mountain that happens everytime i go and they shut it down for sometimes 2 hours

its about time they start to change it

That ride is very old if they update it more like the one in disneyland i will be happy

They need to update alot of rides like the ones in disneyland

Yea but they don't want to copy, becuase they will loose business. People from cali will be like why do we want to go there if we can go to the one down the road that'sthe same thing? WDW will be looseing guests and money something they want more and more of.

yea but like they need to update mostly 2 rides like the ones in disneyland like Space mountain that hopefully they'll change the tracks and the cars so that it can be 2 riders per row

and Buzz lightyear because that ride is getting kinda old and they need to update it more like the one in disneyland

The rest of the other rides are okay and not all of the rides in WDW and Disneyland are the same

Actually Peter Pan, Space Mountian, BTM, WDW RR (they are doing it now), Splash (they are doing it now jsut small little things though), CBJ (I heard they were takeing it out finally), JC, and HM (doing that now)... So far that's all they have announced they will be doing in WDW in the way of ride rehab, the WDW RR they are just putting in new areas of tracks and such nothign big they do it overnight, and splash is a few cameras being added to certin areas and BTM will only be down (once again) for a few weeks no big. Peter Pan and Space will be the longest as space will be down for about a year and peter pan about 3 - 4 months.

Yes there are 1 or 2 targets worth 100,000. I also, know that there are a few worth 50,000. I love it when the ride stops me right in front of a 50,000 target.

If you want a glitch, you have to do this right, you need to hit the very first target exactly on it between your 1 - 10 time shooting and your score will go as high as it can go.

ok first how do all u ppl know that SM is getting re-done??? on the disney web site ( http://disneyworld.disney.go.com/wdw/calendar/refurbishmentslisting/index?id=MKCalendarRefurbishmentsListingPage&date=20080101 ) it doesn't say anything about it. i am sorry but i think that is just a rumor unless you guys have proof.

Buzz Lightyears Ride is great no matter what you DLR ppl say. my brother know a spot were you get A LOT of points and his highest score on it is 840,000 (or something like that don't remeber the exact numbers). of course he won't tell me were it is :( but last time i moved the car the other way and he missed :Tongue: and he got all mad a me. but then his score was 95,300 or something like that.

If you use my glitch you can max your score at 999,999 :o and it's not a rumor. You dont see the WDW site listing how VMK Central will be going down as it's being moved now do you?

There are 2 Disney Gallerys

One is at Epcot, right on the left side of Space Ship Earth.
The Other is at Downtown Disney, near the Christmas Store.

Yea but I heard they were thinking of adding one into DAK and DHS... More then likely it will be DHS since it fits more into that name.

No, I've gotten 50,000 to 100,000 points on targets in the middle of the ride, no matter what you say.
