Walt Disney World Running Tests for Slinky Dog Dash Coaster

Posted by: Christy Caby September 24, 2017

Slinky Dog Dash is one of the new attractions slated to open in Toy Story Land in Disney’s Hollywood Studios at Walt Disney World.  Toy Story Land is one of the new themed expansions coming to Walt Disney World, opening in Summer of 2018.  We reported previously that the images of the Slinky Dog ride vehicles had been released by Disney Parks Blog.  It appears that the attraction has begun safety testing as Slinky Dog was seen running the track.  This means that the ride is somewhat operational, which puts us even closer to finally getting to experience this amazing new attraction.

The entire Toy Story Land expansion will total 11 acres and is expected to open in Summer of 2018.  The other attraction opening with Slinky Dog Dash is Alien Swirling Saucers, themed after those fun aliens in the crane game.  Slinky Dog Dash is a coaster that families will be able to enjoy together.  The theme is based on that Andy would have built the coaster himself using his Mega Coaster Play Kit along with other toys and fun.  The ride vehicles will be Slinky Dog with his slinky coils stretching and moving throughout the ride.

Here is a video that Disney Parks Blog released a little while back debuting the ride vehicle:

Who else has seen Slinky Dog on the track?  Who can’t wait to ride this new exciting attraction?

About Christy Caby

I am a diehard Disney fanatic! I fell in love with all things Disney from an early age and that only increased once I first visited Walt Disney World! It led me to complete a yearlong Disney College Program working at merchandise locations within Disney’s Hollywood Studios (Disney-MGM Studios at that time) and I worked for Disney Parks & Resorts Technology in Project/Program Management. Now I get to write about Disney and help others plan their magical vacations! Disney holds a special place in the hearts of my entire family as my husband proposed there, we honeymooned there, took trips while pregnant with each of my boys and have visited with them many, many times from 8 weeks old through now. One of my favorite memories from each trip is always the look on my kids’ faces the first time they see the castle. I’d love to help you plan your magical vacation!
