Character finding help?

I have this one character I really want to get a picture of, and I was hoping I'd find him this coming week during my first trip.

Max, Goofy's Son. How hard is he to find? Where would I even look? Also what places are the easiest to find Goofy himself? My mom's friend loves Goofy, so we were hoping we could get a pic of my mom with Goofy. I will be going to the Halloween Party this Monday as well, have either of them been spotted?

Also, how often do the villains change out during the party?

I haven't often seen Max, but I think I saw him once at Goofy's Kitchen. I'd probably check there first. You can always get a picture with Goofy at Goofy's Kitchen.

In July, we ran into Max while we were at Minnie's breakfast at The Plaza Inn.

You can get a listing of character times/locations from City Hall. I believe there's also a CM near the times board who will know.

That being said, I've only seen Max a few times at Minnie's character meal. There's no guarantee that he'll be at the character meal. He might be in the parks, but I haven't been lucky enough to catch him there.

Yeah, I have seen Max mentioned in several reviews of Minnie's Breakfast at the Plaza Inn. I saw him there myself in April. I think that would be your best bet.

Just got back. Max was in the park today about 10 am just after the entrance tunnel. I've also seen him at Goofy's kitchen. Check with the CMs to find out who is out and when/where during your visit. We saw Goofy at Big Thunder Ranch with Donald. He was in his skeleton halloween costume, and we also saw him at DCA at the fountain area. Good luck!

I've seen Max twice at Minnie's and three times in DCA, in front of Animation Academy.

Glad you ask this question, been looking for Max for many years.

Most of all, glad to read that Max has been reported to be in the Parks recently, not just for Character Meals! Maybe this will be our chance to meet him!

We've seen Max over in DCA (near Animation Academy) a few years ago and saw him at Minnie's last month.

We see Max almost every time we eat at Minnies and we do that once every time we go, so about 3-4 times a year. I have never seen him walking around at Disneyland, but have seen him walking around at DCA, so definitely check with City Hall.
