The ride has all-new vehicles, replacing the original 1970s If You Had Wings vehicles, with displays showcasing the revamped scoring system. Buzz Lightyear’s Space Ranger Spin also introduces guests to Buddy, the support bot who prepares you for your mission.

The climactic battle scene is also updated to add Buzz, and the new on-ride photo now includes scores for bragging rights. Disney teased Toy Story 5 Easter eggs and more surprises in the ride.

The attraction’s gift shop also received several upgrades and replacements, including the PhotoPass wall.
