PHOTOS: Buzz Lightyear’s Space Ranger Spin Load Mural Updated, Now Includes Space Mountain

The mural at the load area of Buzz Lightyear’s Space Ranger Spin in Magic Kingdom has been repainted and updated.

The mural isn’t drastically different from the old version. It still features a giant version of Zurg sending a line of robots toward Buzz and a ride vehicle of little green aliens.

An orange robot dog has been added to Zurg’s army (not Sox, the orange robot cat from “Lightyear”). The planet and moons behind Zurg have been changed slightly to be more colorful.

The mural is generally looking brighter since it was completely repainted.

The most notable difference is that what was once a ringed planet behind the little green aliens is now a Space Mountain-shaped Star Command station.

The robot dog and Space Mountain are both featured in other versions of the ride around the world, including Buzz Lightyear Astro Blasters in Disneyland Resort.
