Alien Swirling Saucers is a spinning ride at Toy Story Land in Disney's Hollywood Studios. First announced at the 2015 D23 Expo, it opened on June 30, 2018, as part of the wider Toy Story Land opening.[1]
Alien Swirling Saucers uses the same ride system that powers Disney California Adventure Park's Mater's Junkyard Jamboree and Tokyo Disneyland's The Happy Ride with Baymax.[2] The ride system shares similarities to the classic "Cuddle Up" ride from Philadelphia Toboggan Company and the classic Whip ride from William F. Mangels.[3] It was manufactured by Zamperla.[4]
The attraction is themed as a play set that Andy won at Pizza Planet.[5]
