==Attraction History==
The history of what would eventually become Toy Story Mania began in 2005 when Imagineers Ken Raffety and Robert Coltrin were working on the Radiator Springs expansion of Disney's California Adventure <ref name= "studios"> http://www.studioscentral.com/history-toy-story-midway-mania </ref>. As the duo felt that they needed to create another new attraction for Radiator Springs, they began to develop an attraction that would be interactive, like the new Buzz Lightyear's Astro Blasters attraction in Disneyland.<ref name="studios"/>
{{Quotation|Play testing is a huge part of our interactive design process. We started within 6 weeks of having the project turned on we had a prototype, and we started bringing people in to try to find out what was going to work best in terms of translating these games to a different medium. We brought people in every 6-8 weeks. We were always testing the versions of the software. We spent a lot of time with people. We asked them a lot of questions, and we really try to find out the things that we don’t realize are going wrong. Because when you design an interactive for a really broad audience like this it’s impossible to predict how that many different kinds of people are going to use something <ref>www.disunplugged.com/2009/12/04/interview-with-toy-story-manias-award-winning-creative-team/#sthash.LBA9KtOA.dpuf</ref>}}
The attraction finally opened as Toy Story Midway Mania! on May 31, 2008<ref name="studios"/>. Since Toy Story Midway Mania opened, the attraction has seen a relatively few number of changes. In conjunction with the release of Toy Story 3, in May 2010, Toy Story Mania was updated. At this time, "Rex and Trixie's Dino Darts" replaced "Bo Peeop's Baaa-loon Pop"<ref name= "wdw"/>.. Furthermore, the character Buttercup was added to the "Hamm & Eggs" game<ref name= "wdw"/>. Finally, Trixie, Buttercup, Dolly, and Mr. Pricklepants were added to the prize scene, Lotso was added to the practice round, and the game scores at the end of the attraction were changed so that they now showed guests new categories including: 'Best In Vehicle', 'Best This Hour' <ref name= "wdw"> http://www.wdwmagic.com/attractions/toy-story-mania/news/24may2010-'rex-and-trixie%E2%80%99s-dino-darts'-now-playing-at-toy-story-mania---a-rundown-of-the-changes.htm </ref>.
