The attraction is based on a scene in the original Toy Story film where Green Army Men parachute through stair banisters to investigate Andy's birthday presents. Early plans for Disney California Adventure included this ride. Instead, the Maliboomerspace-shot attraction was constructed.
Positioned between the Slinky Dog Zigzag Spin and RC Racer, this attraction towers over 80 feet above the park.[3] Guests are hoisted to the top of the tower in six-person "parachutes" before tumbling back to earth in a series of rises and falls that offer a view of the attraction's surroundings.
Theming around the attraction includes: a large-scale Playskool baby monitor, which momentarily comes to life with updates on Andy's presence, a "plastic" look-out tower dug down into the sandy ground, and an army base complete with human-size accessories and toy soldiers.[4]
