Character Dining with Woody and Buzz?

[emsmommy323]

Hello everyone! I'm not sure if there is a different area where this question should be but I'm going to ask anyway! Are there any character dining places that have Buzz and Woody at them? My son is a Toy Story freak so he would LOVE that! Thanks!

Sorry, currently no meals feature Toy Story characters.

I've been hoping they would do this for years! Talk about a potential goldmine and they're not banking on it. I would love a brand new character meal with some of the Pixar characters, but I wouldn't mind if they would just update one of the old meals. There's only so many times you would want to pay to eat with Donald or Pooh.

1) Not really.
2) They have studied
. . . Toy Story
. . . Villains
. . . Star Wars
. . . Pirates
3) They have a short life.
4) Parents keep going back to Mickey or Princesses or Pooh.
5) Especially princesses.
6) That is why other resorts don't try it.

NOTE: Disney knows it bread-and-butter, and keeps with it. Just
look at the ads - princesses and little girls. Boys and other Dis
characters are marginalized (OK, Mickey is shown, but at what
percentage of the commercial).

Well, the movie came out over 16 years ago and it's still going strong with merchandising and sequels. Buzz and Woody for little boys are the equivalent to the princesses for little girls. Actually more so, since girls also tend to like them, but boys won't be doing many of the princess meals unless there is a sister tagging along.

I wish, my DD is a freak for the Toy Story movies. She's only 3 and knows many of the lines. We have to watch these movies all the time!!!

I think it would be very popular.

However I doubt they would do it because it would be hard for Buzz to maneuver a dining room.

I would think that if Lilo and Stitch are around and they aren't even on the air anymore, they would think about putting Woody and Buzz in a restaurant on occasion.

I wish! My kids are luke-warm about Mickey and gang, and my DD doesn't really know who any of the princesses are, but they would go NUTS over a meal with the Toy Story characters!

I totally buy your theory on villains, Star Wars and Pirates but not TS. We would drop a princess or Mickey meal in a heartbeat to eat with Woody, Buzz and Jessie and we would return year after year. Disney is really missing the boat on little boys. They can work their parents just as much as little girls when it comes to getting what they want.

I agree. I know Disney does its due research, but I can't help but think a Toy Story breakfast would be another license to print money for WDW.
