I think it's nuts to call it by anything other than what it says on the sign that's hanging up in front of it:

TOY STORY MIDWAY MANIA

But many divisions of Disney disagree with you. About the ONLY division is the in-park stuff, EVERYTHING else uses "Toy Story Mania!", and even in the parks, you can see both versions... heck, the Ticket Booths at the DLR have "Toy Story Mania!" on all 8 buildings...

If Mr. Potato Head calls it "Midway Mania," that's good enough for me. Don't argue with a 10-foot potato.

I get this message twice a day (once for myself, and once for Lisa) where I go to enter a contest to win a Honda Pilot...

I see the Toy Story Mania! logo, and then Tom Fitzgerald from WDI talks about "Toy Story Mania!" (his words)....

Our local radio station has a contest currently (giving away a Disney trip, 4x daily). In all the promos they call it "Toy Story Mania!" Even while they did the live broadcast from DL/DCA, they called it the same thing.

im sorry but calling it toy story mania is some stupid marketing ploy by the marketing department that is so out of touch with the rest of the resort that they just do what they please. The attraction is toy story MIDWAY mania. It is whats on the SIGN in front of the attraction and the potatoe CALLS IT Midway as well.

Which matters not one bit. They can all call it Gone With the Wind if they want. The official name is Toy Story Midway Mania. People will probably end up calling it the Toy Story ride.

Incidently, I say with completev assurance that the name is Toy Story Midway Mania for two reasons:
1. Kevin Rafferty, the lead designer of the attraction was quite clear that the name has been Toy Story Midway Mania from the very beginning. He said that the use of Toy Story Mania is just a simplification by marketing.

2. Read the name over the main entrance of each attraction. It's Toy Story Midway Mania. Simple as that.
