More On The DCA Preview Center

The Orange County Register is up with an in-depth story about the new Preview Center at Disney's California Adventure. Lots of photos, lots of copy; here's a bit about what's coming to Paradise Pier:

The Mickey Wheel will replace the park’s current attraction, The Sun Wheel. The sun face will be replaced by a vintage “pie-cut eyed” Mickey face. Different vintage Disney characters will be featured on each gondola.

The Boardwalk games will be rethemed with characters from classic Disney films. The games include “Casey at the Bat,” based on a segment of “Make Mine Music;” “Dumbo Bucket Brigade,” from the movie “Dumbo;” “Goofy About Fishin’,” based on the Goofy cartoon “How to Fish;” and “Bullseye Stallion Stampede,” from the Pixar Film “Toy Story.”

The goal of these attractions as well as the other new additions to Disney’s California Adventure is to “bring more Disney richness through more characters,” Weis said.

The center itself opens to the public on Monday, the 20th.
