UFO Ride

Little is known about this ride. In the background of one of the earliest park souvenir books you can see concept art for what appears to be a flying saucer ride similar to the rocket jets. Most likely this would be located in Tomorrowland. It was probably not made because the Rocket Jets were made instead.

Peter Pan Crocodile Aquarium

The Peter Pan Crocodile Aquarium was about what it sounds like. It would have been an aquarium that on the outside would have appeared to be a large version of the crocodile from Peter Pan. Guests would enter the crocodile through his large gaping mouth and go down into his belly. Once inside the belly, guests would be able to see underwater in a large aquarium full of exotic fish and aquatic life.

The likely reason this was never built was not enough money to build everything when the park was opening, little space, and little reason to build something that was not special for this new park.

While the crocodile never got his own aquarium at Disneyland, eventually Disney would bring back the aquarium on a much larger scale with the Seas Pavilion at Epcot. The Disneyland Hotel for a time had a Peter Pan-themed pool which included a fiberglass crocodile as well, but that has since been replaced with a retro Disneyland park and monorail theme.
