For the Disneyland 70th Celebration, Toy Story Midway Mania! at Disney California Adventure has a special overlay featuring the celebration’s “70” logo.
Queue
The overlay includes special decorations in the ride’s queue. It looks like Andy got a hold of a Disneyland 70th Celebration sticker pack. Various “70” and “Celebrate Happy” stickers with silver holographic borders are on the walls behind the talking Mr. Potato Head.
The 70s are various sizes, but all purple and blue — the main colors of the celebration. The “Celebrate Happy” stickers are starbursts and diamonds. “Celebrate Happy” is the motto of the 70th celebration and the name of the anniversary’s theme song.
In the loading area, a blue sign has been hung on the informational panel about the tram vehicles. It features more of the 70 stickers.
The sign reads, “Get extra points by hitting these stickers.” As we saw in Disney’s first look at the overlay, the stickers have been incorporated into targets throughout the ride.
Ride
The stickers start in the practice round, where characters hold up targets with the 70 branding. A new graphic behind them reminds guests to shoot the stickers.
In the various games, you’ll see “Celebrate Happy” stickers incorporated into the video as though they were stuck on to game pieces. Any target worth “700” points now has the “70” sticker replacing the 7 and first 0.
Some of the “Celebrate Happy” stickers are obvious but others are partially hidden.
Though the themes of each scene remain the same, they all have 70th anniversary stickers.
There are physical “Celebrate Happy” and “70” stickers on the walls throughout the ride. Although it spins so fast, you might miss them.
As you progress through the final mineshaft scene, the 700 targets feature 70 stickers.
The final targets also get 70 stickers when they switch to 700.
In the scene where characters reveal your “prize,” there are 70th anniversary stickers behind them.
The digital confetti that goes off was also updated to be the 70th anniversary colors — vibrant purple, blue, and yellow.
As the game ends, 70th anniversary stickers are still displayed on the final screens.
More physical stickers appear on the walls as guests near the loading area.

The Disneyland 70th Celebration officially begins on May 16.
