"I do not make films for children... or, at least, not primarily for children." "You're dead if you aim for kids." "We design the films to appeal to ourselves." "The adults have the money; ... children don't have any money." - Walt Disney
I think what makes it feel incomplete is a lack of fairies - considering the ride loosely seems to work with the lore of the Tinker Bell solo series, having the other characters make appearances would add a bit of life and things for kids to wave at. You can't really put an animatronic outdoors 24/7, so if they appeared as simple figures or on screens, that'd be enough. That said, the parks (and the company as a whole) are typically really coy about referencing DTV/TVA material, so I guess they might not have been allowed to plant in more direct connections.
im just so happy tinkerbell is finally getting recognition again... it has seemed like a dead IP since the movie series ended (save for random T-shirts and dolls) and i couldnt be happier that theres an entire tinker bell ride!!!
Im guessing they were going for what they used to do with dark rides where the rider *was* the character, but they could’ve at least had some of Tinkerbell’s friends show up? Like come on this could just as easily be Bugs Life
it may be short and simple, but i’d personally absolutely LOVE to ride this ride. tinkerbell is my very favorite. i wish they had more stuff for her here in california
I know it's for kids, but even as a little kid I think I would've felt like we never quite got to the ride part. Scenery with one screen leading up to seeing one animatronic. Feels like this was done to pad out the other great rides in this new area.
The sign out front is already great. It’s gorgeous, I could see myself maybe riding it once with a short wait because it’s so pretty but this is very clearly and firmly a ride for LITTLE little kids. And that’s okay! There needs to be a balance of those and E-Tickets and I feel like Disney on the whole has forgotten that.
Timestamps for the people: Queue begins at 0:31 6:19 is the beginning of the ride 6:28 is when Tinkerbell shows up 8:03 is when the mouse/rat is shown fully. 8:21 for ride ending [EDIT: Added ride ending/queue timestamps]
It's so cute but, what exactly did we help do on this ride? It's far shorter than I expected, but since it's meant for thr littles, that's probably ok. I love the details.
8:20 depending on how the camera behaves, /might/ be able to fix the flickering lights by switching to either 25 fps or 50 fps to sync with the 50 Hz electricity there. So odd that Japan has a split 50 Hz / 60 Hz power grid!
Sure it’s small but there’s still something wonderful about it. And maybe since the land is still new, it may add some more fairy variety if this land really becomes popular
It would be a nice walk through attraction like Journey of Water, or just open area like every other themed decorations at Fantasy Springs, or an enclosed specially themed space like Mermaid Lagoon that is outdoor; why is it behind a queue?
It’s cute, but I’m a bit lost as to what the story is. What is the point of the ride? I liked the seasons. Were we supposed to meet other fairies? I feel like I missed something?
Yeah this ride surprisingly sucks compared to everything else. Lol. It’s like the Heimlich’s that used to be at DCA Takes longer to load than the ride 😂

If you could add one new feature to this ride, what would it be?
Inverted corkscrew.

That’s a very strange quote? I think things are a lot different now!
I would add whatever makes it worth the wait line... It is such a long waiting time for a small ride... with only one animatronic????
the ability to drive the vehicle (as in make it move along the track)

Agreed. There probably should have been a fairy in each season for us to deliver a package to.

It's like you smooshed Heimlic's Chew Chew Train and the Alice in Wonderland rides.
It's cute, but they should have had all the season's represented with animatronics of each of Tink's fairy friends like Fawn or Rossetta.
it may be short and simple, but i’d personally absolutely LOVE to ride this ride. tinkerbell is my very favorite. i wish they had more stuff for her here in california
agreed! when i plan trips i try to check to see if tink will be there the day(s) im going because she is my favorite!

The attention to detail is insane!! 😍😍😍

That was pretty good. It didn't have to do anything or go anywhere, but thanks to amazing theming it looked fantastic.
Loved the design of the ride but it did need more fairies since it was a Tinker bell motif.
This brings back the joy that Bugsland used to give me
What?! A ride where you’re shrunk down to the size of [insert small thing here]?! I cant believe it 😮
It would be a nice walk through attraction like Journey of Water, or just open area like every other themed decorations at Fantasy Springs, or an enclosed specially themed space like Mermaid Lagoon that is outdoor; why is it behind a queue?
This is giving me mad Heimlich’s Maneuver (Chew Chew Train) vibes. 😂
Yup, but with money spent on it lol
I like it ! Very cute ! It’s like the 80's ride style but I m sure they will upgrade this in future ! Fairy animatronics are missing !
I think I'd fit in just great with my Tinkerbell shirt. Such a cute attraction!
FEELS LIKE HEIMLICH'S TRAIN!
Fairies would be nice but I love that pretty Tinker Bell ride 💖
I am so looking forward to riding this next month on June 25!!
It seemed very short?

Is that the neverbeast in the stump?! Omg I’m gonna cry
Himelic vibes I love it
Tom-san, arigato gozaimasu! xo
And Disneyland can’t even get the Pixie Hollow light and water show working again.
Maybe its because this is meant for kids, not adults... but if i had to wait any more than 10-15 minutes for that ride I'd be pretty annoyed.
Agreed!! A 30-minute wait for this short of a ride is a hard pass at any domestic park.
It’s cute, but I’m a bit lost as to what the story is. What is the point of the ride? I liked the seasons. Were we supposed to meet other fairies? I feel like I missed something?
BUSY BUGGIES!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Is that short ride
❤
Very busy
Wow! Good
Bring to Walt Disney World. Love Tink!
Can we get this in WDW, please? Along with a new Tink Meet & Greet?
Became noob the trail
I’d only they had Rosetta Silver Mist, & my hot goth gf fairy 😔
Ah, it is quite short
Night ride is definitely better
This reminds me of Heimlich's Chew Chew Train that used to be at Disneyland.
More exciting than Bayou Adventure
And they say Tinker Bell is being removes from Disney.
Nice to see she’s not “Problematic” in Tokyo
Japan is OUT DISNEYING DISNEY
The details are mind-blowing ...but disappointing as a ride
Yeah this ride surprisingly sucks compared to everything else. Lol. It’s like the Heimlich’s that used to be at DCA Takes longer to load than the ride 😂
Noob is tracking Laura son
Wow that’s extremely disappointing 🤷🏻♂️
Thanks, skipping this. HAHA
Kind of weak compared to everything else
What’s wrong with some things being not an E-Ticket?
@@WDWNT nothing at all, I was just hoping for a little more moving parts. Perfectly fine attraction
That goes so far past A ticket, you have to start at Z and work backwards.
Well, that was... underwhelming.
Good lord, that was terrible.
pathetic
