I'm surprised the Disney SAMs didn't take out the helicopter.

Isn't Toy Story Land supposed to be opening Summer 2018? I don't see how that is remotely possible, most of those structures are steel shells with not much else completed.

Don't be silly. They are in the pavilions that don't have anything. Morocco, UK, etc.

The command & control center is in a secret room inside the Wonders of Life building!

The buildings that are mostly just steel shells of a building are part of the Star Wars area. The area that showed the roller coaster are Toy Story

Well, at least that Pavilion is used for something.

Are they correctly themed to each country?

I hear that Buzz is strapped to one of the Disney SAMs. Of course I tell you this in the strictest confidence.


Nice work, pal.

The propulsion system for the SAM isn't working due to it being repurposed as a Frozen meet and greet. Buzz has to fly it to its destination if it is ever needed.

That's probably closer to being the truth.
