Toy Story Midway Mania Tips and Tricks (Spoilers)
Here are my top tricks so far:
1. Barn Room (we shoot eggs): I shoot the goat in the top corner (2,000 pts?) and the fox on the henhouse (500). The fox, once shot, triggers a series of 1,000 point chickens. The rat near the house at the top is worth a lot of points, but he doesn't come around very often.
2. Balloon Room (we shoot darts): Aim for the corners. If you knock out the balloons on the cloud, you get a shower of 500-point balloons covering the screen. This is key: if your partner does the same thing on HIS cloud at the same time (more or less), then what you trigger is a shower of 2,000 point balloons, rainbow colored.
3. Green Army Men Plate Breaking Room (we shoot baseballs): There has got to be a trigger here somewhere for secondary targets that offer higher points. But I can't find it! So I'm stuck so far just shooting the 500 and 1000 point plates.
4. Alien Room (we shoot rings): This is key: put a ring around all the 100-point aliens in the rocketship in the middle. Do it before any of them pops back up, and you trigger the "hungry monster" who opens his mouth and lets you rapid fire in your rings for 500 pts, then 1,000 pts a shot. Get the monster to appear early to maximize your time with him; we find it effective to have me and my partner "split up" the spaceship to blanket it with rings very fast. Every so often, the monster keeps his mouth shut. Aim at 1,000 or 2,000 or the 5,000 point rocketships on the side during this quiet time, but come back to the monster when he's ready.
5. Western Room (we shoot suction-cup arrows): All the targets here splay open additional 500 and 1,000-point targets. Just keep shooting fast. Is there a hidden trick here?
6. Transition to next screen: keep shooting as your vehicle moves to the next screen. Some 2,000 point targets appear near the middle.7. Mine Cart Finale (we still shoot suction cup arrows): Kill the bat at the top as soon as you see it. It flips around to reveal a 5,000 point target. Then, the mine cars start saying 1,000 or 2,000 points. This is key: the very instant a giant target fills your screen, start rapid firing and don't stop until it's all over. As you hit the target, lights around the outside of the target illuminate in order. After you make it all the way around, the target starts being worth 1,000 points and your lights start over. I can make it almost to halfway around the 2,000 points. But you have to be very quick.
To REALLY get the high scores for the day or for the month, what you need is a partner who is willing to work with you to open up all the bonus targets, but then let you gather all those points.

It sounds like your addicted to this new attraction, Kevin!
Well, I am! It's fun! :)
In the barn room, there's a way to "open" the barn and see inside. I wish I new the trigger, but I only got it once. Inside were a bunch of mice, I think, but the scene ended before I got a chance to really play on it.
To get the rat, I think you have to shoot the horse, which triggers the goat in the loft, and getting him sends a rat. Seems like a lot of work though.
In the balloon room, shooting the low point flowers releases higher point bees.
my strategy in the mine room with the large final target- shoot the same target as your partner. It means fewer points for you individually but the target will rise to 5000 points at the end which more than makes up for losing some 500 and 1000 point targets towards the beginning.
You may know these by now, but:
Plate Room - Shoot the two 2000 point plates that fly up from behind the mountains. They have to be shot at the same time. This reveals a tank which shoots 5000 point plates.
Western Room - Part 1 - Shoot every target at least once. The 500's and 1000's will be replaced with 1000's and 2000's.
Western Room - Part 2 - There are two 500-point targets next to each other on every screen. Shooting both of these will reveal a 2000. This can be repeated ad infinitum.
i got over 500,000 by myself, anyone else top that?
