Walt Disney Company Submits Ride Patent for New Theme Park Experience

Disney Patent

The latest Disney patent was filed on Thursday October 5th, and the patent description hints at the possibility of a Spider-man themed attraction. The new patent, referred to as a Track-based Swing Ride with Long Arm Pendulum, seems to move guests through a track based ride, while hanging, similar to Magic Kingdom’s Peter Pan attraction, but with the additional element of swinging while moving along the track.

Walt Disney Company Submits Ride Patent for New Theme Park Experience Walt Disney Company Submits Ride Patent for New Theme Park Experience

Below is a description of the patent:

“One goal in designing the ride system was to deliver an experience similar to what it would feel like to be with Tarzan or a similar character swinging between trees of a jungle on a vine or with Spider-Man or a similar character swinging on webs between buildings as you move down streets of a city. [The ride is] intended to have swinging sensation provided while also having forward travel along a ride path in a direction of travel and for the swinging sensation to feel thrilling and fun.”

Of course as of now any character themes behind the ride, or even which park it will appear in, is all speculation. With the D23 announcement of the future Super Hero Universe coming to Disney California Adventure Park, it wouldn’t surprise me if the hints within the patent’s description hold true. Although, it was recently confirmed that the new Guardians of the Galaxy attraction coming to Epcot will be a roller coaster; so it’s possible that this patent could be the track system for the new attraction.

Nothing is official until Disney says, but it is certainly fun to guess at what they have in store for their theme parks.

I love it when two things I love get combined into one! These vibrant and adorable Mystery Costume Stitch Minnie Ears have done that brilliantly too! Not only are they Minnie Ears, which I can never have enough of, there’s also a mystery aspect to them! I love blind boxes, and mystery picks, so this sounded to exciting to me.

What’s the mystery you ask? Well, each set of ears will feature Stitch, Scrump, or both… BUT, you won’t know which adorable costume they will be dressed in! There’s Mickey Stitch, Captain Hook Stitch, Ursula Stitch, Tinkerbell Scrump, Boo Scrump, and many many more! Each set will have a randomly selected mystery Stitch and or Scrump on each ear! Look below for an example of some of the mysterious ears you might get!

I honestly love all of them, so any pair would be fabulous! The anticipation of which set will arrive has me sooo excited! There’s even a Moana and Maui Stitch and Scrump combo! Each pair is finished off with a sequin bow, in Stitch Blue, and a green headband that compliments the fabric’s background. These Stitch ears will be extremely limited edition, so make sure you get yours before they disappear!

DLiving

Fans of Disney’s D-Living located at Disney Springs Town Centre will want to make note of the fact that the shop will be going on hiatus starting end of day tomorrow (October 8, 2017.)

This is one of the shops at Disney World that is constantly evolving.  Over the past few months, we’ve seen the shop carry everything from Disney-themed home decor to the latest in theme park fashions.   Word on the street is that D-Living’s upcoming closure will give Disney time to work on a new theme.   We here at Chip and Co. can’t wait to see what they come up with.

Disney has not released official word as of yet as to when the shop will re-open however there is speculation that this could be some time in November.  In the meantime don’t miss the other amazing Disney-themed shops like the colossal World of Disney as well as Marketplace Co-op, two of our favorites when shopping for apparel and accessories.
