Al's Toy Barn

[acbmom]

I have read on several sites that there is Al's Toy Barn at mgm and that is where the toy story characters are. Is this still there?? Where is it in the park, I havent seen it on any map?? My son's fav characters are buzz and woody.

It was there last Oct when I went near the Muppets. We got our picture taking with Buzz, Woody and also Jessie.

There is actually another post about this very subject.

There is usually 2 time slots listed to meet characters at Al's Toy Barn. I would recommend going during the first time slot and see who's there. Not all characters are always there. We were there once during the second time slot and the little boy in front of us was just in tears because he wanted to see Buzz and it was only going to be Jesse. That way if Buzz is not there during the first time slot, you can come back during the second time slot.

We went during the second time slot last month and saw Buzz, Woody and Jessie. We got there right before they were scheduled to come out, but it started raining. We momentarily took shelter and were told that the characters can't come out in the rain. Everyone left and shortly after it stopped raining they came out. We didn't have to wait in line at all. As a bonus, we turned the corner and there were Miss Piggy and Kermit. We got to see 5 characters in a 3 minute time span!!

Lesson learned: if it rains, head to the character greetings.
