It's only fitting that a Wii game based on a theme park attraction would be controlled with a device based on a toy. Peripheral company Thrustmaster just announced its first Disney-licensed accessory, a Wii gun shell reminiscent of Buzz Lightyear's ray gun, coinciding with the European release of
Toy Story Mania! The Ray Gun NW is expected in European stores by the end of September at a price of €14.99.
Sure, it's a bit frivolous, but maybe you can think of the gun as enhancing the
3-D effect found in part of the game. Even without glasses, it would
totally look like Buzz Lightyear's gun is, like,
right there in your hand!

In this case, I think we need a whole compilation of those.

As if I couldn't get enough of that gun at work.
I work at the attraction at Hollywood studios and just replacing the strings on those things EVERY night kills me.

Yeah last time I was up in Anaheim at DisneyLand I remember just yanking the hell out of the string on the gun the whole duration of the ride.

The ride itself is amazingly fun, but the game unfortunately doesn't hold up. Without the 3D and the various effects like blowing wind and spraying water, it's not the same experience.

Hate to break it to you but that's not Buzz Lightyear's gun. It's a replica of the shooting device found on the Toy Story Midway Mania ride in both Disneyland and Walt Disney World. Buzz doesn't carry a gun as he has a wrist laser.
Yes, I'm a huge Disney nerd.

I got one of these today. They are lame. They only give access to the A and B keys, but some of the mini-games and the menus in toy story mania need other keys, so you have to keep taking it out.
