History
After The Eighth Voyage of Sindbad performed for the last time on September 15th, 2018, Universal decided to re-theme Arabian marketplace section of The Lost Continent to a new land called ToonCity, which is themed to several modern cartoons such as Hazbin Hotel, Ben 10, and Ruby: The Incredible Night Fury. Meanwhile, The Eighth Voyage of Sindbad would be torn down to make room for the attraction based off the massively popular Ruby: The Incredible Night Fury television series. Stanley Tukkets, a long-time Universal Creative employee who served as executive producer for various attractions for Universal such as Terminator 2: 3D, Revenge of the Mummy, Forbidden Journey and Escape from Gringotts would serve as both executive designer and technical director of the attraction.

For the Hollywood version, Universal decided to demolish Stage 41 and to make room for the new ride, TBA.

Production
The character animation was provited by Wang Film Productions. Universal Creative hired Blur Studio to animate the backgrounds on-ride film scenes while Universal Animation Studios would provide the hand-drawn 2D animation for the Land Before Time characters in the ride and videos that play in the queue, while Night Fury Ruby and the How to Train Your Dragon characters were animated by DreamWorks Animation. The attractions various special effects consists of fog, lasers, pyrotechnics and practical set pieces that move. Oceaneering was hired to manufacture and design the ride system, which consists of busbar track with vehicles mounted onto a six-axis motion base and turntable, which allows the vehicles to tilt and rotate.

Ride System
The attraction technically uses an omnimover ride system since all of the vehicles are constantly moving and barely ever stop. Due to the always-moving nature of the vehicles, guests board and disembark the ride via a moving conveyor belt that moves at the same speed as the ride vehicle. The vehicles can reach a top speed of 14mph and has the ability to speed up and slow down throughout the ride. If a disabled guest or wheelchair passenger needs boarding the ride, all the ride vehicles will come to a temporary stop until the affected guest has boarded safely, then the vehicles will resume motion and continue as normal.
