Best Buzz Lightyear Astro Blasters Disneyland strategy for over 1MM without stopping (see dscrption)

[@eaj626]

You are a PRO. I don't know how you can aim so accurately from such a distance on those moving targets. Getting 999,999 is on my bucket list.

[@artieo5339]

Not sure if you saw my details in the description but I list an aiming tip I use. I aim my dot somewhere else first then move it to the target. You can actually see me doing the tip at the 2:43 mark. I slightly dip down shoot (to see where the heck my red dot is) then raise up and start hitting the target.

[@eaj626]

@@artieo5339 I did see that tip but even still, to aim at those tiny sensors in the center of the target so consistently and from so far away is really skillful. I hope that tip works at the Orlando version which I know has different guns and a different layout, but I always seem to have a hard time figuring out which laser dot is mine. Perhaps your trick will help.

Before attending Disneyland yesterday, we (my nephews and nieces) went over and over and over your video in advance at home. We took notes. We rehearsed many times watching your video, our hands and fingers pointed like blasters in front of the computer monitor (we looked like a bunch of idiots, 😂). We even went over your video in line just before the ride, envisioning each target and saying them aloud "Inside hand! 180 turn! Battery, battery, battery!..." 🤣🤣🤣 I'm sure the other guests thought we were psychos. After our 7th time through we still weren't getting super high scores (in the 150K-350K range mostly). Some of the kids (6 kids total) dropped off and left. But a few of us just kept at it, doing exactly what you did, and on our 8th time through, and in the last hallway room before the ride ends, I looked behind me at my 14 year-old niece's car and saw 999,999 on the display. I LOST MY FREAKING MIND! I stood in my car, pumped my first in the air, and repeatedly screamed "You did it!!" I have never seen her so ecstatic ... she could hardly contain herself. I also pulled 1.4 million on the same run and was ranked 10th on the leaderboard. It's dumb, I know that, but we were elated beyond belief. It's the most fun I have ever had at Disneyland and such a great memory I have with her and the other kids that I'll never forget. Thanks for the help! It was so much fun.

@@redplanet76 You are soo welcome my heart melts at your experience. It takes a little bit to get good aiming, and the timing on shooting, but once you get it and you hit Galactic Hero, you never feel the same again. The joy of the accomplishment makes the ride one of my favorites. My brother follows about 90% of my plan but still gets 1mm too so maybe you’ll find a better plan that works for you and your party. I’m sorry the others didn’t get to experience it but hopefully they will in the future. Also, one day in the future, you’ll hit 1mm (or more) again. And someone in front or behind you will see your score. Then they’ll ask you how on earth you did that. On that day, don’t send them my video. Share all that you’ve learned in your own words and create that Disney magic between you and the other guest(s). I can tell you from experience, it’s pure Disney magic and fills your soul. See you in the top 10’s!!! 😃😄😀😁😄😃

@@artieo5339 Thanks for the reply. Yeah the aiming was difficult at first and perhaps still is, but calibrating at the beginning by shooting the wall really helped. I should have noted before that we have been going to Disney all of our lives and never did well on this game. So this time we were not going to fail. So it wasn't just the 8th time, it was MANY times over the years, which made this experience so much better. And we cut up the runs in two sections so it's not that the others dropped off... its just some of us came back to the ride later in the evening after failing a few runs around noon. Anyway, it was just so much fun. And your video made all the difference. Thanks again. I look forward passing along what I have learned from you.

I was there the same month! However from the 22-25th. I got up to 957k! Over at WDW’s I got 999999 55 times!

[@artieo5339]

Keeping track of how many times you got 1mm? Respect. That’s next level! 😃

[@ultimatedisneycruiselinefa5112]

@@artieo5339UPDATE: My new Astro blasters score is 974k. My GH count at WDW is now at 73.

[@skunkman9815]

I’ll try this strategy when i go on the ride next time

[@SaucyUnagi]

Was just there for Star Wars night, took me 5 tries after watching your video getting it on the last try. Was losing faith on the 4th as I dropped but pulled through. Sucks they don't give you a pin in CA so now I have to go to FL to do this again... Thank you tho!

[@artieo5339]

Woooo! Congrats! If that was your first Galactic Hero at DLR it must have been so gratifying. Glad you had fun. MTFBWY!

[@SaucyUnagi]

@@artieo5339 it was! I was honestly shocked and the Zurg chest spot really helped. I was at 600k after the first Zurg, by the end of the 2nd Zurg I made it. Thank you again!

[@skunkman9815]

Wow you got the galactic hero rank!!
