Toy Story Midway Mania is currently closed to move the entrance to the other side of the building. This will properly place it inside of Toy Story Land. Chances are we won’t see this facade ever again.

Tons of Incredibles merchandise there. Makes sense with the massive $180 million the movie opened up to.
