That is even more the focal point now that Mickey & Minnie’s Runaway Railway and the attraction’s fantastic queue are right in the middle of the land. While Toontown is meant to be a broad space for all types of cartoons, it really is shaped around Mickey Mouse and his friends with Roger Rabbit doing weird stuff over in the corner. Toontown, specifically the reimagined version, does share a few similarities to Galaxy’s Edge. The biggest of those changes came in the way of Galaxy’s Edge, an IP-specific land unlike all of the other broad themes. The landscape at Disneyland has changed since the 90’s though. When that new land is based in cartoon architecture as opposed to the real world design of all the other spots, fitting in is even harder. Having six other iconic lands, as well as Critter Country which fits organically as an extension and is steeped in tradition, makes it hard for a new one to fit in. The land was first conceived in Magic Kingdom in 1988 before coming to Disneyland in 1993. We’ll start with the latter, as Toontown has stuck out as Disneyland’s redheaded step child for quite some time.
