The attraction first opened at Magic Kingdom on November 3, 1998. It is inspired by Disney/ Pixar's Toy Story franchise, and contains several elements loosely based on the cartoon series Buzz Lightyear of Star Command.

Designed by Walt Disney Imagineering, this attraction combines a carnival game and a third-generation Omnimover system. Buzz Lightyear's Space Ranger Spin (also known as Buzz Lightyear Astro Blasters at California, Tokyo and Hong Kong, Buzz Lightyear Laser Blast at Paris and Buzz Lightyear Planet Rescue at Shanghai) is an interactive shooting dark ride attraction located in the Tomorrowland area of the Disney theme parks.
