Animal Kingdom Lion Guard Experience

[Muppetfan3]

Does anyone know if this is still available? I haven't seen much information on it, but thought maybe it was at Rafiki's Planet Watch area in Animal Kingdom, but not sure. DS is a huge fan and wanted to know if it was still a running exhibit/activity in AK. Thanks!

Its statues around the ak area. Wilderness Explorers was a lot of fun though

Ok, great - thank you!

Sorry, Kion and his friends have moved on. This was only a short term experience.

I can't believe Simba has a kid. Man I feel old.

Ok, thanks for telling me. No wonder I couldn't find anything on Disney's website. I appreciate knowing.

And I feel old too knowing Simba has a kid!! LOL!

Dang, they took the time to remove the statues? Was hoping Newton's 1st law of laziness would prevail. Now i'm going to have to make something up for my 4yo to go scavenger hunt as he is lion guard nuts. Wants to get temporary lion guard tatoos on our arms for our trip in Sept. May bring something and have Rafiki present it to him. Is there any lion guard anything at WDW now?

My daughter loves the Lion Guard too. We just got back and I asked about it. The CM said they took down the statues since they would be in the way for the summer crowds. There's nothing lion guard except a few random toys. My little girl thinks we forgot to see them and says we will see them next time. I hope they add something soon.

This is super-cute! An Honorary Lion Guard Member "badge" or certificate would be pretty awesome. Even a temporary tattoo in the shape of the lion guard mark, plus those would be super easy to slip to Rafiki (or his handler). I may have to do this myself - my boys are Lion Guard crazy too and my oldest has The Lion King (MY all time fave) in his Top 5 with the likes of The Incredibles, Toy Story, Frozen and Aladdin.

OMG! I love the idea of Rafiki giving out Lion Guard mark temporary tattoos! DS would flip over that!

Could maybe do stickers either... that way they can put it on right then.

Here is a free file you could print on sticker paper or (do they make it?) temporary tattoo paper... I am planning to do this. Hopefully, I can get Rafiki to give them to the boys. Best bet to give them to the handler probably?

Or you could make buttons... they have those kits, don't they? I am setting to work on this...

Just back from our trip and wanted to let you all know that while they don't have the statues, we went to meet Rafiki and one of the CMs stopped my little boy (covered in Lion Guard clothes) and asked him if he wanted to officially join the Lion Guard. He recited the pledge and she gave him a button. When we met Rafiki he drew a really cool Kion on his signature page. Pretty sure you could just stop a CM in there as she said they had plenty of buttons.

Also, the train out to Rafiki has some banners of each of the characters - great surprise for my 4yo.

Thanks for telling us this! Maybe in January, this will still be true. My boys love Lion Guard.

Found this post searching for Lion Guard info. Obviously, per my avatar pic they are the favorite in our house. We will for sure do all the lion king stuff, but wishing they had some dedicated Guard things! I'll keep in mind we could do the stickers/etc and meeting Rafiki in AK.

We went last June, hoping that they would have left the lion guard things up - nothing - they were removed promptly...
That would have been fun for sure!

Love the idea of Rafiki doing LG temp tattoos! My LO would have loved that!
Did I read about a month ago Rafiki is not meeting anymore?
