My theory with the astroturf is that they were trying to kill two birds with one stone. California is very stringent about water usage, so consolidating two fountains into one enabled them to turn on the fountains near Sleeping Beauty castle again, and operationally opened up a bunch more stroller parking
I like that they used real trees throughout. The tree in Centoonial Park will grow and families can chart its growth on every visit with pictures taken in front of it. People seem to never remember (or are too young to have seen it) that many trees in Disneyland started very small, and have grown into their space. Most obviously the two trees they had to remove and replace in front of Pirates. The tree will get bigger.
Bringing in more 80’s/90’s loop music is such a smart idea, given so many of us millennials have nostalgia for Duck Tails, Chip N Dale, Goofy Movie, etc. Also, so happy to see them update Gadget’s coaster - even giving her more love! I was worried that it would be axed!
I continue to be impressed by how well Toontown now blends so many eras of Disney cartoons. It still has much of the quintessential 40's cartoon style. But now the fountain has a more classic early style of Mickey and Minnie. The Gadget Coaster reflects the Disney Afternoon era. Donald's boat uses the modern DuckTales designs and Runaway Railway covers the modern TV styles. And the music loop includes nods to all eras as well. No matter what era of Disney cartoons you grew up with or prefer, it's in this land now, and they seem to have done a great job making it feel coherent and not just a mish-mash of styles.
One thing the new Toontown needs are more character greetings like Uncle Scrooge, Professor Von Drake, Horace Horsecollar, Figaro, Fifi the Peke, Mortimer Mouse, among others.
Don't get Max! and Huey, Dewey, and Louie more often. They should also consider giving Mickey's nephews Ferdie and Morty meet and greets AND bring back Webby and Bonkers out of retirement to become semi-rare!
@@prowolf633 Don’t forget about Minnie & Daisy’s nieces, Grandma Duck, Launchpad McQuack, Gus Goose, Gyro Gearloose, Gladstone Gander, Gilbert Goof, Clara Cluck, the Three Little Pigs & Big Bad Wolf!!!
As someone who romanticized Toontown after learning about it during the height of my Who Framed Roger Rabbit discovery phase, I became kind of attached to the land and hoped to visit one day. Never made it and was terrified when they announced it was getting revamped. As a kid I even asked for and got the Toontown Christmas village light up set for Christmas and displayed them year-round. I still don’t love some of the color choices like the overabundance of blue in the City Hall corner, going from basic colors to more neon-y ones or the patterned Welcome To Toontown sign, but the paint touch-ups and other improvements and things kept (namely, Roger’s CarToon Spin although I wish they kept the fountain) make me happy it got some tlc and I can still hopefully someday finally check it out in person.
Yay! Chuuby the bird on Tom’s shoulder. I listened to the whole review and I was hoping he would at some point wear the Chuuby. 🐤 Tom’s honest reviews are one of the best parts of this channel. 💕
i have drawn my disneyland paris version of mickey's toontown idea; it doesn't have roger rabbit's car toon spin, but it does have a third train station for the park next to mickey's house. the land also has goofy's playhouse, donald's boat (the same version in the new mickey's toontown), minnie's house, chip & dale treehouse next to chip & dale's gadget coaster and mickey & minnie's runaway railway (see below for the differences since there are quite a few) the facade of the ride is still the el capitoon theater, with standby and premier access lines going inside, but the museum was replaced with normal theater areas there are two preshow rooms, with the theme song being sung in french as well as the other spoken lines the train goes in the opposite direction as the other versions, and there is an outside portion after the park scene that lets you look out into the land the track switch sends goofy's car into a tunnel to the left while the rest of the train keeps moving forwards into the desert scene the carnival scene has the most interesting change: when the tornado blows mickey and minnie away, a door in the middle of the room opens and the cars go down a drop as if they are not powered. this drop is needed to pass underneath the railroad tracks there is no island/ocean scene and instead there is a projection room of the cars floating down a river into the city in the dance studio, daisy speaks english the rest of the ride is not too much different, but after the train is sent away from the unload station, it goes up a large lift to return to the loading level of the show building the ride doesn't have an exit gift shop, so there is a five & dime shop next to the ride entrance
Again, all this coverage of DL Toontown is making me so nostalgic for our WDW Toontown. I was there when it was Mickey’s Birthday Land, Mickey’s Starland, and even worked there when it was Mickey’s Toontown Fair. I so wish space would be made to recreate it somewhere in the Magic Kingdom or possibly Hollywood Studios. It was a memorable experience to be in Mickey’s house for kids and adults!
Tom's "gushing" over Toontown. Warms my HEART! I think DL + Imagineer's knew how important to get it RIGHT! After all, THIS is where a lot of kids most intimate interaction with Mickey & the gang. The grassy areas is a throwback to original DL. Walt insisted that rather than put up borders/fences, let the guests tell you where they want to walk. Merch was done with a "purpose". I MUCH prefer to impulse buy with a keepsake that reminds me of MY visit. My house is "littered" with such personal items. Having arthritis and hearing that even the kids that are NOT ADA still wanting to take long way around is the essence of the boundless energy of that age.
The New Toontown has some problems, but I was surprised by its new popularity recently. It would be awesome seeing a version of this at Disneyland Paris.
Our kids always loved it and I thought it could have been better. The fresh, brighter colors paint and added humor has enhanced Toon Town. It really needed it.
Just there this past week, SO busy. Loved how the Land sucked up so many guests, clearly necessary & useful for the park as a whole. Great to finally have rly fun space for littles since Bugs Land left (og splash pad) long time coming. (Checked out final iteration before the redo, was hot, sad, & dead.) So many kids on the slides etc., beautiful to see. Hilarious that folks were picnicking in the actual road in, that was interesting. So crowded not sure how we ended up walking across “green” space, but I guess we we did. The back quiet space was full but very calm when we checked it out, lots of napping folks of all ages, well deserved I’m sure. Super cute overall, just so hard to know where one is. Tree, yes lame sadly, agreed. The Runaway Railway ride is lovely, we had a great time. Had snacks (highly recommend the chips & dip, that was great) & somehow got a table while Railway was down, got on with a short wait when it started back up, nice! Bought almost the last few Power Limes (behind the counter!) they need to make more of those :) Also bought a Chuuby bag, so stinking cute, will bring on every future visit without fail. Overall very happy for the Land, too bad it’s so tiny. Honestly though a whole Park of this would be full. Still, nice job Disney. It’s ridiculously pretty, esp while walking in.
The balls remind me of our local children museum. Not a complaint, because I loved the ball shoot as a kid, so I’m glad that kids today still find it so fascinating.
Think a good idea for the tree is to let the kids grow over time with the tree. By the time they have kids the tree would’ve grown twice the size. Also ‘grow’ the roots with the tree, maybe add more over time. For nostalgia purposes. Or make the illusion of the tree growing by maybe replacing every so often. Was definitely underwhelming to see though. First thing I went looking for was that tree n kinda sat there like ‘…….huh.’ . Was my favorite out of all the concept art.
There are super popular artificial turf areas in the Hub at Magic Kingdom and those never seem to be empty, even on hot August and September days in Orlando. No trees. Always filled with people sitting down to eat or relax.
25:47 I was nodding and agreeing like "Yeah this whole space looks useless, but at least the view from the top is really nice." Then when you panned right I was like "Except they put that damn tree there."
If I want to hear spa-like music. I would go to spa. If I want to hear to music toon would go to Toon Town. Basically what I'm saying is bring back the original soundtrack.
Many theme parks make the mistake of "too loud." It's supposed to be background ambiance, not a nightclub. Some kids get sensory overload and loud audio just like that is how it gets caused.
Did you notice the rough cut plywood pieces on Donald’s boat? It looks really bad. The just painted over the Badly cut wood and didn’t even fill all the screw holes. Hopefully this is just temporary because they were in a hurry to open the land is and didn’t want any more delays.
One thing I don’t understand is why the new music loop is so short. Unless the new tracks are padded out with updated orchestral soundscapes…I haven’t seen a video yet that’s shown that- only a seemingly fan made mashup of the new songs with orchestrals of unknown origin…
“Gawrsh, Mick. Whoever took that shot's probably dead now. That's how conspiracy works, hyuck! Them toons on the grassy knoll, they were dead within three hours, Aaaaaaaaawoooooohooohooohoooooohooooooo”
I hope they don’t change the music or the volume. I feel it’s immersive and will leave lasting nostalgic memories. Disneyland truly has the ✨magic. When we went to MK, the 1st thing we noticed was there wasnt any music playing in the lands. Felt we were in a regular amusement park. We were so let down.
They should have a kinetic experience like Goofy’s house in Epcot to replace the image works…maybe have the dream port with dream finder and figments house…we’ll have to wait until the movie comes out for them to do anything else in Epcot though.
6:12 before Covid happened, and the failure of the modern Star Wars franchise, a budget was approved that saw the removal of Toon Town for "Phase 2" of Star Wars land. Then Phase 3 would see the removal of Nemo and Innoventions to connect their massive Star Wars Land all the way back to Tomorrowland. However, Iger dropped all those plans in order to purchase Fox, and the rest, as they say, was Chapeked.
I am SHOOK that 2000 leagues was not underwater!!!!!!!! I just went to Disney Tokyo and it was frickin amazing but I am also a little sad that I know the truth now.
Great coverage, but I have to disagree with the Pandora prediction. They'd have to decimate half of the Cast Member area to fit it back here. That all just can't go away. The largest building here is the shipping & receiving warehouse. That's the building which houses everything needed within the parks so it's highly unrealistic for that to be moved blocks from here. Looking at the satellite, it seems pretty obvious the area on the other side of that Toontown dead end was meant to be for a future Star Wars attraction, with that rectangular building behind it for a possible ride building. I know one of the original ideas for this spot was a new Star Tours building, which is "coincidentally" rectangular (in Florida). Most likely, I see this as the future home of the "new" Launch Bay (aka meet n greet). The America Sings building has to go at some point, whether for an Autopia replacement or Tomorrowland attraction (Tron?). I wouldn't be surprised to see a combo of the two things because it opens up a lot of space in Tomorrowland. All that said, Disneyland does not need Pandora! DCA does! Far more than it needs some crap San Fransokyo makeover!
They leveled necessary backstage facilities for Galaxy’s Edge and Runaway Railway, I believe they will try to take all facilities away from this end of the resort.
I think the knoll in the middle of all the houses was just meant to open the space for increased foot traffic between all the houses instead of having to navigate around the fountain.
Tom, you forget one important thing. When you were a kid, the parks WERE more accessible to more families, so park exclusive things, made more sense. Now, just to do a decent visit, it's over $10,000 for a 10 day visit, that's just for TWO. That's $500+a day and that was staying a in value hotel and not doing all the activities and that's the cheapest you can get the tickets for on a per day basis at WDW and it's almost as bad at DL were it's 4 -5 day tickets.. So, unlike you now, most people don't have multiple thousands just to drop when a new "park exclusive" item comes out. So other than trying to find resale on ebay or etsy or something, getting these things on shop disney is the closest some will EVER come to a park or maybe they missed an item during their once in a lifetime trip. So now because they can't afford the exorbitant prices any more, they shouldn't be able to try and get a small taste of what they remember?
@@WDWNT Very elitist for you rich people. Might as well lock the gates and make it an exclusive club too. Not everybody gets all the perks of being invited to Club 33 or the former dream suites all around the world. So those who'll NEVER be able to afford to go, might as well be denied ANY access then? I normally like you videos but sometimes you and you're ilk (others like you who has almost unlimited access) don't seem to know(or care) how hard it is for many families to even get there if at all. So for a single dad like myself to have their child see something from a park in a picture and KNOW that face of sadness that they'll never be able to have it, because it's not possible just to plop down a few thousand and go any time we want to.
Sorry Tom, but you are wrong about shop Disney. Many visitors to the parks are not from the local area or even the USA, they can’t buy large or fragile items and even have enough space in their luggage, to Dewey them the ability to buy the products on their local shop Disney is not anyway fair. Many also, can’t get tickets under this new system to be in the opening day crowds and yes, tgat is selfish, especially from vloggers
It’s not selfish, it’s literally the definition of a souvenir. Souvenirs are things you buy from places you go. It ceases to be that once you sell it online.
a ride with the ugly trash new reboot micky mouse on it a is a good way to help ruin toon town oh and the ducktales reboot sucks so am not going to pay to go see that in Donald's boat either. im going to super Nintendo world later disney
First of all. 2 things, #1 Tune town was and is a takeoff of Warner Bros, style and tune town the movie should have never been made. Also, in modern times we have all learned that rainbows are the celebrated symbol of a certain peronal Lifestyle . I do t appreciate any Rainbow designs in Disneyland. This park does not need to celebrate personal life decisions, that are not nature's intention. . That is youre business not mine. Go celebrate on you're own time on ylure own property .
My theory with the astroturf is that they were trying to kill two birds with one stone. California is very stringent about water usage, so consolidating two fountains into one enabled them to turn on the fountains near Sleeping Beauty castle again, and operationally opened up a bunch more stroller parking

I am so happy you're doing more of these. I am so enthralled to listen and sit down for an hour or more. I find these so dang fascinating

A walk-around Mortimer Mouse would be amazing! A perfect buddy for Pete.

there are two preshow rooms, with the theme song being sung in french as well as the other spoken lines
the train goes in the opposite direction as the other versions, and there is an outside portion after the park scene that lets you look out into the land
the track switch sends goofy's car into a tunnel to the left while the rest of the train keeps moving forwards into the desert scene
the carnival scene has the most interesting change: when the tornado blows mickey and minnie away, a door in the middle of the room opens and the cars go down a drop as if they are not powered. this drop is needed to pass underneath the railroad tracks

Install a fence around the grassy area in front of Mickey & Minnie's house to prevent guest from walking through it.
The grass is artificial turf and will burn children in the summer.

The Go Coaster was my first ever roller coaster as a child- I can’t wait to take my son some day soon 🥰
I feel the grassy areas are a lazy attempt. I do think they are good idea but more could have been more added or thought to them.
The New Toontown has some problems, but I was surprised by its new popularity recently. It would be awesome seeing a version of this at Disneyland Paris.
Not to mention the City Hall is no longer active

FLOWERS!!! I was wondering what was missing in toon town the green spaces need flowers!
My guess is that they ran out of money to do a huge fake tree like they planned so they went backstage and found a random tree to use.
I don’t appreciate Tom ruining my childhood memory of 20k. I sure thought I went under the water. 😂
Different one, that one was actually underwater
The balls remind me of our local children museum. Not a complaint, because I loved the ball shoot as a kid, so I’m glad that kids today still find it so fascinating.

Again thank you for this detailed review. These are so helpful.
The grass in toontown is going to be so hot both to touch and environment. There is not enough trees to shade it.
There are super popular artificial turf areas in the Hub at Magic Kingdom and those never seem to be empty, even on hot August and September days in Orlando. No trees. Always filled with people sitting down to eat or relax.

If I want to hear spa-like music. I would go to spa. If I want to hear to music toon would go to Toon Town. Basically what I'm saying is bring back the original soundtrack.
Absolutely
Before walls went down when I saw the tree at first I thought that they just scrapped it and expanded Goofys. I feel like that would’ve been better.
Many theme parks make the mistake of "too loud." It's supposed to be background ambiance, not a nightclub. Some kids get sensory overload and loud audio just like that is how it gets caused.
As an autistic person, I see this as an absolute win.
Did you notice the rough cut plywood pieces on Donald’s boat? It looks really bad. The just painted over the Badly cut wood and didn’t even fill all the screw holes. Hopefully this is just temporary because they were in a hurry to open the land is and didn’t want any more delays.
Yeah it’s not done
What no spoiler alert? Now I know how the windows in Donald's Boat work. LOL
17:00 I really wish they would just expand galaxy's edge into Tatooine.
I can't imagine not having Toms Takes about all things Disney.
3:17 bear country was after 1960.. I understand your point about outside the berm qualification.
Going forward, are we going to refer to the Astro turf in Toontown as the Grassy Knoll?😂
You should really put chapters on these, Tom
Nobody's talking about the fact that the Toontown City Hall is no longer active
That was broken for years before the closure
You don't think they turned up the sound/music to deter vloggers?
like a siren only dogs can hear?
One thing I don’t understand is why the new music loop is so short. Unless the new tracks are padded out with updated orchestral soundscapes…I haven’t seen a video yet that’s shown that- only a seemingly fan made mashup of the new songs with orchestrals of unknown origin…
Love the honest reviews, Tom!
“To see it glisten and gleam, as if it was in Japan.”
“Gawrsh, Mick. Whoever took that shot's probably dead now. That's how conspiracy works, hyuck! Them toons on the grassy knoll, they were dead within three hours, Aaaaaaaaawoooooohooohooohoooooohooooooo”
Yeah at Disney world the coster in that land was my favorite so it’s so neat Disneyland put it back
I hope they don’t change the music or the volume. I feel it’s immersive and will leave lasting nostalgic memories. Disneyland truly has the ✨magic. When we went to MK, the 1st thing we noticed was there wasnt any music playing in the lands. Felt we were in a regular amusement park. We were so let down.
Where does music not play in Magic Kingdom?
@@WDWNT when we really noticed it, it was at Barnstormers
They should have a kinetic experience like Goofy’s house in Epcot to replace the image works…maybe have the dream port with dream finder and figments house…we’ll have to wait until the movie comes out for them to do anything else in Epcot though.
What happened to Monterey Jack on Gadgets coaster?

I haven’t heard any of this, Tomorrowland was the original plan for the Star Wars Land based on the original trilogy to my knowledge
What is your source for this info? If there was plans for this, I'm genuinely interested to see what happened.
They just need to add more benches.
Strollers are the biggest problem at Disneyland
Disneyland food is good but they aren’t as good with food allergies.
I am SHOOK that 2000 leagues was not underwater!!!!!!!! I just went to Disney Tokyo and it was frickin amazing but I am also a little sad that I know the truth now.
Well said!
Great coverage, but I have to disagree with the Pandora prediction. They'd have to decimate half of the Cast Member area to fit it back here. That all just can't go away. The largest building here is the shipping & receiving warehouse. That's the building which houses everything needed within the parks so it's highly unrealistic for that to be moved

But it could have been pavement then
@@WDWNT I think thematically it is supposed to be a median in the road, so it probably made more sense to use that than actual grass.
When will you do the spaceship earth back to the future?
We are no longer doing Back to the Future publicly, it will be a WIGS exclusive offering moving forward
Sure beats dumbo’s circus! What I wouldn’t give to have a toon town instead.

a ride with the ugly trash new reboot micky mouse on it a is a good way to help ruin toon town oh and the ducktales reboot sucks so am not going to pay to go see that in Donald's boat either. im going to super Nintendo world later disney
First of all. 2 things, #1 Tune town was and is a takeoff of Warner Bros, style and tune town the movie should have never been made. Also, in modern times we have all learned that rainbows are the celebrated symbol of a certain peronal Lifestyle .
I do t appreciate any Rainbow designs in Disneyland. This park does not need to celebrate personal life decisions, that are not nature's intention. . That is youre business not mine.
Go celebrate on you're own time on ylure own property .
And a lot of us don’t appreciate bigots…
All the reviews done are extremely long. Unrealistic to expect someone to listen to a 1 hour video.
I always listen to the full thing in the background what I work.
Clearly you're unfamiliar with the concept of a 'podcast'
In my opinion, we're getting great info in a great format. I stayed for the entire review.
Sorry for your short attention span
Yet somehow here we are lol
