Opened on October 7th 1998, Buzz Lightyear's Ranger Spin is another one of those MUST DO rides. You sit in a ship, actually an XP37 Space Cruiser, which seats two, or three but only two laser guns. You control the ship by spinning it round and shoot lasers at small, oh so small, targets for points. The ships spin a full 360 degrees and you pass through thirteen stages

  • Star Command (Lobby)
  • Loading Dock
  • Launch Bay
  • Robot Attack
  • Planet "Z"
  • Zurg's Ship
  • Robot Factory
  • Zurg's Secret Weapon
  • Escape Hatch
  • Speed Room (Hyperspace)
  • Space Battle
  • Star Command
  • Maintenance Bay (Unloading area)

 

Souvenir photos are taken and will be available for purchase at the end. They can be quite fun :)

 

There are so many hints, tips and urban legends about where best to aim for the truly big scores. Some evidently correct ones are:-

aim for the dead centre of the targets

Targets that are moving and/or far away score more

You can spin round and look at the back of targets, there will sometimes be targets on the back

As soon as you're in the projection room fire like mad! you can earn a lot of points there
