Exciting news for Disney fans worldwide – Shanghai Disneyland Resort is set to welcome a brand-new character for a limited-time meet-and-greet experience. Starting June 16, visitors will have the unique opportunity to meet Rex, the beloved, anxiety-prone Tyrannosaurus Rex from Pixar’s **Toy Story** franchise. This marks the first time Rex makes his debut as a character meet-and-greet at any Disney Park around the globe, an event sure to draw crowds of excited guests.
Rex, who was introduced to audiences in the original “Toy Story,” is known for his endearing, nervous demeanor and his green plastic exterior as one of Andy Davis’s cherished toys, now in the care of Bonnie Anderson. While he hasn’t been featured at parks before, fans might remember catching a glimpse of him on the Disney Fantasy during Pixar Day at Sea with Disney Cruise Line. With Toy Story 5 on the horizon, this appearance is timely and sure to rejuvenate excitement for the franchise.
The exact duration of Rex’s stay at Shanghai Disneyland has yet to be disclosed, so those eager to meet him should act sooner rather than later. His arrival adds yet another dimension to the immersive **Toy Story** experiences already available at the resort, enhancing the magic and wonder for fans young and old.
