Mon 7/7/2008 2:00p | I been on it three times in the last two weeks, and the longest wait time was 60 minutes the first time on June 21st, 30 minutes the following Saturday June 28th, and about 25 minutes at another time.
Always been very reasonable for me :). |

Mon 7/7/2008 2:47p | I attended a preview night and rode TSMM a couple of times then. In the last week I've been on it about 10-11 more times over two visits. I've never waited longer than 40 minutes. Most wait times have been less than 30 minutes. Always know that whatever is posted is usually less than the actual time! I was there last week on the first day of the single rider line- 4th in line!! Rode it multiple times during the day. Never waiting beyond 10-12 minutes! Best tip I got was to avoid the first couple of hours after DCA opening when the lines are the longest! |

Hi Hans, long time :).
Personnally I really enjoyed the ride, its addicting, it really is. BUT, I think its an attraction that you will only wait around 30 mins to do in the end AND I have a feeling it will fall to the same wait times as Buzz does now once the 'buzz' for it falls after the summer (sorry lol). Even my mother commented a year from now this ride will probably be a walk on like Monsters. I don't think THAT bad at all, but certainly no 60 min waits when the newness falls off (and for the record she LOVES it, part of the reason I got on it so many times lol).
It's fun, original and entertaining, but at the end of the day you are just shooting animated LCD targets for 3 mins. There is no story, nothing to tie any of it together. I enjoyed every time I rode it, but the excitement dimishished a little the more I rode it. Of course you can say that about ANY attraction, but I been riding Splash Mountain for 15 years and I still get just as excited riding it as I did when it first opened. Hell, I was on Space Mountain at HKDL about 2 weeks ago about 3 times straight (5 mins always in Hong Kong lol) and still wanted to ride it at DL for some reason and I been going on that since I was 8 years old. Just not sure if I would feel the same about this attraction after a few summers.
With all that said though, definitely liked it and will ride it again when the wait times aren't too bad :). |
