New neon has been installed and is now lighting up the night atop the Good Boy! Grocers building in Mickey’s Toontown.
There are three strips of neon on the building, which will house the new Toontown Farmers Market. It used to be Goofy’s gas station.
The “good boy” in Good Boy! Grocers is Pluto, who was featured on a logo for the new eatery on the Mickey’s Toontown model displayed at D23 Expo last year. The market will be a roadside stand offering grab-and-go drinks and treats.
The reopening of Mickey’s Toontown has been delayed by over a week. It was previously scheduled to open on March 8, 2023, after closing last March for an extensive reimagining.
The key addition in the reimagined area is the new Mickey & Minnie’s Runaway Railway trackless dark ride, which opened on January 27.
In addition to Good Boy! Grocers, Mickey’s Toontown will have Café Daisy, where Daisy Duck serves up diner classics at her sidewalk table eatery.
Mickey’s Toontown will have more open, grassy play spaces including CenTOONial Park, the first space guests will see when they enter the land. CenTOONial Park will be anchored by two new interactive play experiences: a fountain featuring water tables designed for play and a dreaming tree with sculpted roots for children to crawl through.
Goofy’s house and Donald’s Boat have been upgraded. Behind Goofy’s house will be Goofy’s How-To-Play Yard, including a sound garden and an elevated clubhouse.
Inside Goofy’s house will be an interactive candy-making machine. It actually begins high outside of Goofy’s home, as drips of honey fall from a beehive onto a chute that slides the colorful drops around and down into the home. From there, kids can help Goofy make the candy.
Donald’s Boat has crashed into a duck pond next to Goofy’s house, creating a water play area called Donald’s Duck Pond featuring giant spinning water lilies, balance beams, and rocking toys. Guests can look into the flooded boat through the portholes and interact with Huey, Dewey, Louie, and Webby.
Gadget’s Go Coaster will become Chip ‘n’ Dale’s Gadget Coaster, still drawing inspiration from the character of Gadget Hackwrench, who has created a one-of-a-kind, fun-sized coaster for her friends, Chip and Dale.
At Mickey’s House and Minnie’s House, guests will once again be able to step right into their homes and enjoy a self-guided tour. Mickey and Minnie will also return to greeting guests inside.
Roger Rabbit’s Car Toon Spin, which was updated before the land closed, will also return.
As previously reported, Chip ‘n’ Dale’s Treehouse and the old character fountains were demolished. For a look back on what Mickey’s Toontown looked like before it closed in March 2022, check out our full tour of the land.
We got our first look into the updated land when Mickey & Minnie’s Runaway Railway opened last month.
