Well any way..BuzzLightyear probrably wont be upgraded because it is fairly new. Im not sure how old it is already but there are other old rides to be upgraded first if any.

In short, TDLFAN totally rocks - he's a great man, and I'm proud to call him a friend.

I may have sounded kinda hard on Buzz but I guess I just mean Dl's Buzz to me is superior to MK's version. And those guns are impossible for me to aim, and thats a huge part of the ride.....They needed to be Handleable like Dl's from the get go I always thought.

Originally Posted By Roger55 For a cheap approach, how about they keep the same cannons, detach them from the ride vehicle, install cables and some kind of make shift holster? Sure they would be big and bulky to hold, but I would still think it would make it easier to aim at targets and enhance the ride.
Originally Posted By TDLFAN Rumor has it that some targets in the Buzz ride are broken and have gone unrepaired for quite some time, so if your scores are low...don't blame it on your shooting skills. At least at TDL, DL, HKDL and (soon at) DLP you can see the target light up when you hit. At WDW? ...who knows.
Originally Posted By Roger55 Of course upgrading the targets would also be a welcomed change, but in keeping with the spirit "keep it cheap" I would just be happy to change the cannons. If it turns out changing the targets to light up would be cheaper, I would vote for that! All wishful thinking... I know.
Originally Posted By Kimrue <<At least at TDL, DL, HKDL and (soon at) DLP you can see the target light up when you hit.>> See, I personally don't really like the whole "game" aspect of this ride. It's way more fun to look around and watch everyone else spaz out and actually try to get a good score. Hooboy, talk about FUNnnY!
Originally Posted By jmuboy Don't worry, WDW is gonna keep it cheap and change nothing! That them for their efforts when you drop $60 plus to enter the MK the next time you're at WDW.
Originally Posted By basas Well...wasn't it last rumored that MK Buzz MAY be getting the new guns (and queue modifications?). I would doubt it though. Remember folks though that MK's Buzz is 7-8 years older than DL's. And actually, i find MK's has many more targets and is just as fun as DL's...just IMO.
Originally Posted By LuvDatDisney "You will never understand my point of view until you've been to TDL." Not true. I've never been to TDL and don't know if I'll ever make it there. But as someone who goes back to the start of WDW, I know exactly what you are talking about. Anyone who visited when Walt Disney World was "The Vacation Kingdom of the World'' in the 70s and 80s knows what you mean. You are not alone. And Buzz is one of the dirtiest, most poorly maintained attractions in the MK, which is the dirtiest, poorest maintained of the four WDW parks by far to begin with. The ride vehicles are embarassing, and that's after they repainted the fronts when they began the image-capture program a year or two ago. Just sad.
