Alien Swirling Saucers

Alien Swirling Saucers

An Attraction in Hollywood Studios

Last updated: August 24, 2025

At a Glance

Alien Swirling Saucers is themed around Toy Story’s vending-machine aliens and their obsession with The Claw. About a dozen ride cars move, whiplike, in a figure-eight around two circular tracks embedded in the ground. The ride experience is actually much milder than the Magic Kingdom's Mad Tea Party.
