Just wondering if anyone who's been down to WDW lately has an update on how far along they are on this in the MK. We are going down in September and Rabbit is one of our personal favorite Disney characters. I guess I'm hoping they'll even draw upon the scarce Pooh characters to fill a whole greeting area! :teeth: Does anyone with inside ties know if this is true?

Any news would be much appreciated!

we went early June and I told DH to go up the fence and take a quick snapshot. So far, he said it's still a bunch of mess and all he saw were people working hard.

Here's the picture DH took:

I think this is a very cool idea! We love all the Pooh characters and would love to see some of the others...Roo, Kanga, Rabbit, Christopher Robin...
 
is this supposed to be a new ride, or a meet and greet kind of thing? i haven't heard anything about it. TIA!
 
The area that used to be 20K Leagues Under the Sea in Fantasyland across from Winnie the Pooh has been filled up. The rumor is that it's going to be a 100 acre woods playground/meet & greet area. So far what I've seen the side nearest to Dumbo has tons of trees planted to block some view when riding Dumbo. There are plenty of trees all around the location.
 
It is supposed to be a playground where there might be characters, I wouldn't see why not. But I've heard that it is only temporary. Don't know how long it will be there, but it is a good idea for now, as it will take some people out of the rides, so hopefully lines will be a little shorter.
 
I wish they would put some other character meet and greet over there. Our family is kind of Pooh'd out. We have seen them at Crystal Palace.
 
Thanks for all your replies! It looks like this project is moving really slow... I sure hope after all this work that it's not temporary! :rolleyes:

Here's hopin' we see Rabbit in September! :jumping1:

We saw Rabbit in October at the UK in Epcot. Just another option, if the 100 Acre Wood isn't ready yet.
 
I too would like to see other characters. I mean, the Pooh characters are at Crystal Palace, in Toontown, and almost always in England as sure bets. Maybe they'll bring a whole new group of characters into the Pooh room at Toontown.
