    I had no idea the Toy Story characters have been around since 1910.

    The same way characters fit on Main Street or Frontierland! I think that characters are a nice way to tie fantasy to revival or replication. (Fanciful characters help to bridge the gap between a realistic pier replication and the Disney magic).

    There aren't any character rides in Main Street or Frontierland.

    Even if the Pier has some Victorian influences, it won't be set in a specific time. It just won't work with Mania and the existing rides.

    Victorian Influences...

    Well, I don't think they were selling Mickey Mouse merchandise in 1890 Missouri but we have that. Disney characters are always on Main Street, from the people playing them to the store displays.

    Midways were a part of the early 1900's, Pinocchio85. On the East Coast and the West Coast so having the Toy Story characters in at a Midway is fine. The Victorian era was around the late 1880's to early 1900's so it will work out fine. This is going to be the way it should have been themed when it was built six years ago. We should be happy that Lasseter and WDI are finally making the right decisions after the disastrous results of Michael, Barry and Paul's ugly abomination. ABC's Extreme Makeover turns ugly ducklying DCA into beautiful swan DCA!

    didn't we go thru this before and the same arguement was started by the same person.

    Who by the way feels the midway themed attraction will fit well in the studio themed theme park in WDW.
