Buzz Lightyear Space Ranger Spin
Review
Mayday! Mayday! Come in Star Command! Send reinforcements! Star Command do you copy? Get your flight instructions from Buzz Lightyear, then board your XP-37 Space Cruisers and set your course for Planet Z. You’re a Star Command recruit in Buzz Lightyear Space Ranger Spin armed with a laser cannon which fires a single ion pulse. Your goal is to defeat the evil emperor Zurg.
After your vehicle is removed from auto-pilot you gain control of the spin lever. This lever allows you to spin your vehicle a full 360 degrees to have better aim at the targets. The Disney World version of this ride has mounted laser cannon so you have to do a bit of spinning to get your targets. A couple hints on scoring – try to hit the center of the Z’s, further away targets are worth more, and the top of the volcano is a great spot to strike up 100,000 points.
The entire family will love the friendly competition of seeing who scores the most points, and don’t forget to smile at Zurg’s bright flash towards the end of the ride. What level Star Command did you achieve?

Ride is different each time as you spin your ride vehicle and try and score points. Ride it multiple times and see if you can increase your score.
