0:36
woo here if you call this golden hour or
0:37
magic hour some sort of hour it was a
0:40
little after eight we have procured a
0:43
not a virtual cue the virtual cues for
0:45
light cycle run how long do you think
0:47
they were took before they were gone
0:48
second and a half yeah
0:51
he had the world clock pulled up on his
0:52
phone
0:53
I immediately at 7am tried to get it
0:55
gone but because we were staying at a
0:58
resort on property hello
1:01
the reason we the reason I wanted to
1:03
stay on property is I knew it would have
1:05
a two hour leeway
1:07
before other guests can book their
1:09
lightning Lane
1:10
at 9 00 a.m so I had to pay I think was
1:13
25 a person 20 25 a person but we are
1:16
going on light cycle run
1:19
I'm psyched see as you can tell I'm
1:21
wearing my Tron gear I'm ready to do
1:23
this I need to Showcase your your stuff
1:25
here
1:27
so you got the it's hot it's Florida and
1:29
you're wearing a long sleeve jacket I
1:30
will regret this later but look at that
1:35
monorail going by and the shoes I think
1:39
of anyone I know that is a Tron
1:41
Aficionado you might be the number one
1:44
man dude I mean you're the Tron guy yeah
1:48
you have screen used price you can use
1:49
box lightners helmet I got screen used
1:52
uh Jeff Bridges highlight from the
1:54
original Tron the only thing I have from
1:57
Legacy is a chair back that I had
1:59
Garrett so what you're telling me is
2:01
you're going to buy a lot of merchandise
2:03
today I'm going I'm trying to figure out
2:05
how I'm gonna get that stuff home yes
2:06
I'll talk about that when we get over
2:07
there join me and Sean Clark malfunction
2:10
the Tron guy
2:12
value it's happening
2:14
it's all happening this ride we've been
2:17
doing some soft opening just some cast
2:19
member previews just some pass holder
2:21
previews none of them
2:23
I embraced or utilized I wanted to wait
2:26
until opening day and opening day is
2:28
here and I am thankful I was kind of
2:30
worried when I didn't get the virtual
2:31
cue when they were gone in one second I
2:33
was kind of worried that I was thinking
2:35
I was able to snag really quick like
2:37
the lightning line yeah I'm kind of
2:39
confused that this is all one line or
2:41
two lines
2:42
or exactly what it is but one thing's
2:45
for sure I don't think I walked
2:46
underneath this little spherical thing
2:48
in like years over here a pretty good
2:51
view of the castle over here so
2:53
evidently there is a resort merchandise
2:55
line and there is a regular line I don't
2:58
know if they're all connected or oh yeah
3:01
we're going right in
3:03
you had to put a price
3:12
one thing I will say about this little
3:12
Corridor a little bit
3:14
a little bit of humidity going on inside
3:16
here it is Florida and it's a little
3:19
stuffy in this hallway all right walking
3:21
in here it already says limit two per
3:24
person per skew one of them backpack
3:27
you're already grabbing one of those
3:33
that goes on it now
3:33
I might get like a t-shirt and a pin
3:35
perhaps
3:37
there's one of the shirts there
3:40
I don't think this would fit me oh here
3:43
we go these are little tiny ones here
3:45
baby this oh no that's the identity chip
3:54
remote control Tron light cycle which is
3:54
what I'm going to be boarding very very
3:56
soon
3:58
that's kind of cool I wonder how much of
4:01
this will sell out before even within
4:02
the next couple of hours I'm kind of
4:04
glad I got in here early to be able to
4:06
see a lot of this stuff
4:08
oh wow you know what this entire star
4:10
Traders is Tron there's nothing in here
4:13
except for Tron
4:15
take a look at base here

5:22
next to me
5:28
oh look at this there's a lot of cool
5:28
merchandise
5:30
all right this is what I'm looking for
5:31
there's like the different different
5:33
pins here here's like one weekend it's
5:35
almost like a kind of you can guess
5:37
what's going to be in there these eight
5:38
pin collection but there's only like
5:40
maybe one or two in there I always like
5:42
to get pens that have different dates on
5:44
them but it says game on kids they have
5:47
like an actual date stamped like an AP
5:51
fin perhaps maybe they don't oh wait
5:54
here we go here we go this is powering
5:56
up no
5:59
it's like around tomorrow my magic piano
6:01
2023. yeah there's also this pair and
6:04
this is like an oversized panel they
6:06
have limited amount of them so has
6:08
limited edition 1 000 of these well
6:12
maybe I should buy that I don't see like
6:15
a annual pass holder pin or like an
6:17
opening day and it just has a day stamp
6:20
23 it doesn't have a date on it actually
6:21
could you get one of these yeah I got
6:23
all of them
6:24
first time you worry's been ever ever
6:27
been a figure
6:30
all right here is the limited Pass
6:33
Holder Pass Holder opening day
6:42
I think it is let me look at it real
6:42
quick try to hold my camera and do this
6:43
at the same time there it is yeah the
6:46
grid goes live okay yeah so that's
6:49
opening day Tomorrowland Magic Kingdom
6:51
Passover so I'm gonna get this and then
6:53
I might get a pass holder shirt just to
6:55
have because I always like getting pass
6:56
holder and opening day opening day stuff
6:58
extra small that was a little too tiny
7:00
for me I'm gonna go to the Lord all
7:01
right this is the total before annual
7:03
pass holder discount but they do annual
7:05
pass holder and DVC discounts so that's
7:08
going to be a little bit left maybe 10
7:10
or 15. you need to see this
7:11
all right let's see what it changes too
7:14
it goes down to now itemizing itemizing
7:17
552 I got a shirt two pens and
7:20
everything else is super strong New
7:22
Balance 497 dollars there was a gift
7:25
card
7:27
we had a 90 gift card and then it's 35
7:30
additional for shipping 497 for myself
7:33
Sean stuff some stuff this stuff is
7:35
going to be shipped with some of my
7:42
yeah star Traders really hopping in
7:42
there a new store is going to be over
7:44
next to Space Mountain and Tron but
7:46
right now the pop-up is in Star Traders
7:48
the reason I had a 90 gift card that we
7:50
could apply to our purchases is because
7:52
there was an event where there was going
7:53
to be an experience that was going to be
7:54
open today where you could put your fig
7:56
you could put your face Sean and I were
7:59
gonna get our face on well Sean was I
8:01
ended up getting it for him I couldn't
8:03
get one but they ended up postponing
8:05
that and they gave everyone who had that
8:07
of that that experience a nine dollar
8:09
gift card so we're gonna do like uh
8:11
we're gonna put our faces on a figurine
8:13
what was that called the identity chip
8:14
identity I think so it's the same
8:17
technology they used when the action
8:19
figures came out for Tron legacy it has
8:21
like little images of them like like
8:24
makes it look like they're talking as
8:26
they flash they're gonna do that
8:28
experience today I tried booking it for
8:30
both of us you couldn't do a plus one so
8:32
I booked it for you I hit this like a
8:33
couple weeks ago I hit refresh I
8:36
couldn't get one you were gonna do it
8:37
and then they decided oh it's not ready
8:40
yet and so it was not ready on opening
8:42
day so they gave a 90 gift card back to
8:45
me because it was my account making the
8:46
reservation for you so we applied that
8:48
to that 700 purchase yeah
8:50
AP discount another hundred dollars off
8:52
so we saved about 200 full 500 so what
8:55
ended up happening is he did a nice
8:58
thing for me I got super pumped about
9:00
getting this figure and I got total
9:02
disappointment sorry and he saved 90
9:04
bucks so at least we're getting on the
9:06
ride yeah and we're getting on the ride
9:08
I think it's time let's do it I think
9:10
it's time right now it's our it's our
9:12
allotted time
9:13
and I'm pretty thankful that we're
9:15
getting on this and I think really the
9:17
hack was the the having the ability to
9:20
get that 7 A.M lightning Lane because we
9:22
did not get the virtual cue we got some
9:24
friends here that tried to do the 7 A.M
9:27
virtual queue and the 9 A.M regular
9:29
non-resort guest Disney
9:32
and they could not get the lightning
9:34
light and I know a lot of people are
9:36
really disappointed and it's kind of
9:37
kind of upsetting that it's just such a
9:39
confusing scenario and there's going to
9:42
be a lot of people that are going on
9:43
this today that were at cast member
9:46
previews annual pass holder previews and
9:48
soft openings and I kind of think maybe
9:50
they need to do something about that let
9:51
people who are here only on opening day
9:53
have a better chance of people who have
9:55
already ridden it but that's never going
9:57
to happen that's just my that's my
9:58
little spewing Ranch that's BS it is I
10:02
mean it sucks for people like Jay that
10:04
can't get on you know I came all the way
10:07
from California for this clearly a huge
10:09
Tron fan all right okay the battery
10:11
croaked out what were you saying I was
10:14
saying that I came all the way here from
10:16
California
10:17
just for the Tron opening that if I
10:20
couldn't have gotten on this ride I
10:22
would have lost my mind I would have
10:23
been screaming yeah Guest Services well
10:25
you know what if we wouldn't have stayed
10:27
at the resort and got the 7 A.M
10:28
lightning light and that gave us a
10:30
two-hour window over non-resort gas and
10:32
I really think that's the only way we're
10:34
able to get it I really do I agree 100
10:36
all right we're in line for the Disney
10:38
photo oh it's going by life cycle runs
10:40
going by we're gonna get a photo here
10:41
for posterity
10:54
it's time it's just my also David from
10:54
fresh bake is also here you have not
10:56
been on this yet right nope so you're
10:58
just going you're going in
11:00
so I haven't either we might be the last
11:03
people in the Disney community that have
11:05
not been on this literally the last
11:07
literally now you're going at 11 30
11:10
we're going on now yes
11:22
we're going in the team blue side oh
11:22
there is no team red side it's just team
11:24
blue side over there so evidently
11:26
there's no racing Adrian team red and
11:28
team blue is just all team blue good
11:30
thing he wore your team blue colors
11:33
so yeah it's not like the other version
11:35
of this overseas that you have two
11:37
different ones red and blue we're going
11:40
in Cycles at all times
11:48
yeah this looks pretty dang oh is this
11:48
where the is this where the it launches
11:50
oh right there
11:56
oh
11:56
yeah
12:04
what happened okay they are showing how
12:04
to use the lockers I'm not going to be
12:06
allowed to use a phone or a camera on
12:09
this and I opted not to bring my GoPro
12:11
because they won't use a wrist strap
12:13
they only want to do the chest harness I
12:15
didn't know like sitting behind someone
12:16
I just didn't want to like film
12:17
someone's back and all that so I just
12:19
kind of opted away but I'm gonna put
12:20
everything in the locker there's plenty
12:22
of ride through videos online you got to
12:24
remember which section you have let's go
12:26
to which section which should we go to
12:28
so remember our lockers we're going to
12:30
section 300 how about 303 or have 301.
12:35
let's do 301
12:37
all right it's happening getting over
12:40
the line we got to remember it's 301 30.
12:43
should we ask for the front should be
12:44
after the front oh should we have to the
12:46
back
12:48
very similar to Guardians we go over to
12:51
Guardians they're gonna go oh this has
12:52
the kind of the q line of Guardians
12:55
quite a bit which is like the
12:56
double-sided over here this is really
13:00
cool I love the colors
13:07
it's right next to Space Mountain
13:07
I'm wearing my cat in a spacesuit shirt
13:10
today I figured that was appropriate
13:12
yeah it's more or less the same setup as
13:14
Pony Express at Knott's Berry Farm set
13:16
their horses instead of light cycles but
13:18
you lean forward and this contraption
13:20
pushes your back down and you're kind of
13:22
angled like this you're not sitting up
13:24
straight you're angled like this kind of
13:26
awkward then all right so this is
13:28
basically what the ride Vehicles look
13:30
like
13:36
the loading procedure shows it here so
13:36
Sean's here he's going to be on the left
13:39
side facing door it'll be on the right
13:40
side I'm on B he's on edge I have a
13:43
compartment if you see that or you put
13:44
stuff they have a little compartment you
13:46
put your phone and whatnot in and maybe
13:47
even smaller items so basically Sean is
13:50
going to walk around it and then go here
13:53
and then I'm gonna go so I'm going to be
13:55
on facing forward the right side and
13:57
Sean's going to be on the other side
13:58
I'll just put my phone in the
14:00
compartment yeah okay so basically
14:02
you're going to walk through it and then
14:04
this back trap it closes
14:14
have fun
14:14
into the crib we're going here we go
14:22
so your phone goes up in here yeah it's
14:22
almost like shin guards so you put this
14:25
down like this then I'm gonna Lean
14:27
Forward oh this is weird this is kind of
14:29
weird
14:33
we're on it we're on it I put my phone
14:33
in here all right my first thought much
14:36
better than I expected it was going to
14:37
be it is kind of short but it's
14:39
definitely it's actually a little longer
14:40
than I thought it was going to be
14:42
there's more to it than what you just
14:43
see outside when you want to enter the
14:46
grid and you're inside the grid holy cow
14:47
it's it's pretty darn cool first
14:49
impression I really liked I do wish it
14:50
was a little bit longer kind of like
14:52
mine trying these a little bit a little
14:53
bit longer but you know kind of the same
14:55
general thing but I really did like the
14:56
room now I didn't time it or anything
14:57
like that but I would guess it's
14:58
probably like a maybe like a minute ride
15:00
you're like 20 seconds outside and then
15:02
the other 40 50 seconds inside maybe
15:05
even longer it may have actually been
15:06
longer than that
15:07
that was us a moment ago into all right
15:12
after a riveting ride went over here to
15:13
energy bites which
15:15
isil the food that is for Tron so you're
15:20
gonna get some food or just like a soda
15:21
try all this fresh try all the and try
15:24
all this all this crap maybe all right
15:26
we'll see how many of those on the
15:28
watermelon refresher beef and broccoli
15:30
dumplings okay beef and broccoli digital
15:33
dumplings sound pretty good chocolate
15:35
cake hold donut strawberry strawberry
15:38
ice cream oh I wonder what that sound
15:40
was it's the train going by over there I
15:43
thought it was like a robot that was
15:44
like saying something but it was a train
15:45
I guess in the grid I guess in the grid
15:48
they don't they don't eat a lot I mean
15:50
this is like an okay amount but yeah I
15:52
thought maybe it was going to be like a
15:53
bigger bigger plate than that
15:56
8.79 yeah is there a chance somebody
15:58
might have been eating this but our
16:00
strawberry ISO form what is that great
16:03
it looks like it's mochi mochi uh I
16:06
don't what is that I have no idea what
16:07
that is it ain't good
16:24
I really liked it it kind of they also
16:24
obviously I didn't know what was going
16:25
to be happening when he went inside the
16:26
building kind of reminds me a little bit
16:28
of Space Mountain a little bit of
16:30
Guardians and a lot of rock and roller
16:32
coaster there is no loop-de-loop like
16:34
rock and roller has but once you're
16:36
inside the building kind of has
16:39
some rock and roller coaster trying to
16:41
buy there's a lot going on inside the
16:43
building
16:43
liked it again too short
16:46
and kind of has the feel of when you're
16:48
sitting on the Pony Express
16:50
but other than that really good I
16:53
definitely will go on that again and I
16:54
would recommend going on it I think
16:56
Guardians is superior but this is
16:59
definitely life's like a run freaking
17:01
awesome check out liver lips over here
17:04
hello yeah how are you oh hi

off the one Trenton Dickinson now we're
18:16
over at or no from Magic Kingdom and now
18:20
we're getting on the one at GTC we're
18:21
gonna head over to Epcot to the Epcot
18:23
Loop and go over to Guardians all right
18:25
Sean so tell me does this kind of look
18:27
like the queue for Tron a little bit
18:29
so you got the how that goes on two
18:32
sides kinda
18:33
yeah I kind of feel like you're going to
18:36
lean towards liking Tron more because
18:38
you're the Tron guy
18:43
every kind of ride too and the next one
18:43
should be pulling into the station here
18:50
it really matters what car we're gonna
18:50
be in the
18:51
second car it's like the one two three
18:55
four five cars we're in the second to
18:58
the back seat of the second car
19:01
already inside the Galaxy Sean Clark's
19:03
first time
19:14
what'd you think all right how'd you
19:14
handle it okay so it is definitely a
19:17
better roller coaster a better ride than
19:20
Tron yeah I enjoy Tron more I figured
19:23
how'd you do with the uh that didn't
19:26
make any motion sickness at all good at
19:28
all so
19:29
drops and stuff like that that barely
19:32
has any yeah so I love it yeah isn't it
19:34
freaky it's like nothing I've ever felt
19:36
before that is definitely
19:38
different than any roller coaster I've
19:40
ever been on hands down an amazing ride
19:43
but you go a try and but I mean if I had
19:47
to say which one's better this one's
19:48
better yeah I enjoyed Tron more just
19:50
because of my Tron nerdness yeah try the
19:52
China
