Roger Rabbit's Cartoon Spin is a signature attraction in Mickey's Toontown.After opening in 1994 one year after Toontown debut the ride became popular enough to warrant fast pass ticket distribution. The cartoon spin is similar to the Fantasyland dark rides, which feature little vehicles moving through decorated sets with animated movie themes. Rogers ride however, offer something that Fantasyland rides don't guests controlled vehicles.Roger's cars can be spun around a full 360 degrees like the teacups in the Mad Hatter's Mad Tea Party after entering a garage and climbing into smiling cars designed to resemble the cabs in Who Framed Roger Rabbit guests begin a colorful excursion through that movies toontown.
The trip gets spinney as soon as the cabs slide through the deadly dip slick the weasels have poured onto the road. From this point on guests can whirl their cars in a circle pointing them at anything that passes some 5 minutes and a dozen audio animatronic characters later Roger extricates guests by opening a portable hole that leads back to the garage.From the entrance to the exit frantic energies zany imagination and madcap gags burst out of this attraction. The queue area rivals Indiana Jones Adventure for clever details. A wisecracking gorilla, a pin-up calendar, a dip recipe, a wall of Disney themed license plates and many more making the wait an attraction in itself.
Here are some things to watch for in the Roger Rabbit queue: A bulletin board features a flyer fora Lost Magic Feather, a nod to Dumbo and his friend Timothy Mouse. A door to the exclusive Ink & Paint Club to catch Jessica Rabbit's show, knock on the door and say "Walt Sent Me". The wallpaper in Baby Herman's dressing room features a custom pinup pattern inspired by Jessica Rabbit's curvy silhouette. She's not bad, she's just drawn that way. In Baby Herman's dressing room peer through the glass to catch a glimpse of Baby Herman smoking a cigar and scanning the papers for a lead on a horse.Featured on the racing form is Horace Horsecollar, a classic Disney Cartoon character from the 1920's, and 30s. Several Disney inspired vanity plates have been posted on the loading zone walls
