“Toy
Story Mania! is the first video game to be directly inspired by a
Disney attraction,” said Craig Relyea, senior vice president of global
marketing, Disney Interactive Studios. “Developing this game was truly a
collaborative effort between Disney Interactive Studios, Pixar Animation

end product fully captures the essence of the attraction and delivers a new
fun-filled experience appropriate for all members of the family.”

players to provide hours of fun. Ten fast-paced shooting galleries are
