This ride is always broken down so wait times will be higher than is warranted for this ride. Waiting area doesn't smell great and you're bound to hear at least one child having a meltdown. The ride itself is a little outdated. Toy Story Mania at Hollywood Studios is much better.
Pros:
- Shooting game, which is funCons:
- Literally everything else, sorry.Reviewed by BrianR Review Date: 10/23/2023

My wife and I liked this one, however it's a bit difficult. It's so dark that you cannot tell where your "laser" is pointing and kind of hard to aim.
Pros:
Good ride, great graphicsCons:

This ride is SO HARD! For me, at least. I am SO BAD at it, and I read every tip you can to get a better score! I will never be a Galactic Hero. The shooting guns are hard to control, and I heard that at DisneyLand you can actually pick them up and get better aim! I do not recommend this one.
Pros:
If you become a Galactic Hero, (aka score 999,999), you get a free galactic hero sticker!Cons:
Such a hard game, like a 1% chance you’ll score 999,999, and kind of boring because of it.Reviewed by Anonymous Review Date: 06/21/2022

Fun to compete with your family.
Pros:
Cool buzz monsters and charactersCons:
Hard to aim and see where you are shooting. Long wait times.Reviewed by Anonymous Review Date: 05/22/2022

This ride is extraordinary dated and has the worst system for shooting. It needs removable blasters like MiB at universal or the Disneyland version. With the updated rides like toy story mani, this ride’s age really shows. Replacing it and laugh floor would probably be advisable, but at the least it could use an update
Pros:
Good ride for a short wait, with kidsCons:
Dated, not that much fun.Reviewed by skinewyork Review Date: 01/10/2022

This unique ride for Magic Kingdom is a ride-meets-game. The ride system means there's rarely a long line, and it's interactive. The "shooting" system is a bit hard to use, especially for kids, and your forearm will hurt!
Pros:
Unique attraction, short lineCons:

I love Buzz Lightyear but this ride just irritated me. It was wonderfully themed but the blasters did not work correctly. My mom and I got a score just over 12,000 each & it definitely wasn’t a lack of trying. After the first 30 seconds no matter what target we were pointing at nothing happened.
Toy Story Mania in Hollywood Studios is so much better!
Pros:
Theme is amazingCons:

This ride is perfect for a rainy day or if you have little kids (or a big toy story fan!), but other than that it's a mediocre ride. I love the competition aspect of this ride, but you can get a better toy story competitive ride at Hollywood Studios (Toy Story Mania). The wait times are often too long for me to consider this ride "worth it".
Pros:
interactive ride indoorsCons:
wait times underwhelmingReviewed by Anonymous Review Date: 03/29/2021

This is probably my least favorite ride in the Magic Kingdom. It is the same concept as Toy Story Mania just not nearly as fun. There is an entire land dedicated to Toy Story with a similar ride so I would like to see a more creative ride come in it’s place. Buzz deserves better than a copycat cardboard cutout shooter ride.
Pros:
Kids will like itCons:
Same concept as Toy Story Mania just not as good.Reviewed by Anonymous Review Date: 02/16/2021

I rode this solo which might have a part of my experience but I wasn't impressed. I rather the Toy Story Mania in Hollywood Studios. The shooting mechanisms took a minute to get a hang of.
