Character Meet & Greet Idea

[LIPeter]

So, I’m a big fan of meeting and getting pictures with all the different characters, and I understand why Disney can’t offer this at the moment. But I had an idea that could possible work. Right now, a lot of people are probably nervous about meeting face characters, which I can understand. However, would it be a big issue with fur characters? So, here is my idea. Right now, just bring back the fur characters. But in addition, bring out some of the rare characters as well. There are so many characters that have not been in the parks for a long time, and I think this would be a good time to do it. I’ve been waiting for “Flower” from Bambi since I was young. (I had a picture with Flower when I was 5). So, if anyone high up in Disney is reading this, take this into consideration. I believe many people, including myself, would love to see this happen.

How would they disinfect between people? I am sure that's an issue. Also staffing levels. Are there enough CMs back for that?

I would be happy if they did "distanced" character meets where they stand on a dot & the people stand on a dot. No touching, but you could get pics together. Unfortunately I could only imagine the nightmare of the poor CMs trying to enforce the "no touching" rule & angry people saying "but why can't I hug the character?". I have seen them putting the characters on stages (Buzz & the Storm Troopers I saw recently) & people spaced out in front so you can get a picture & little interaction which is fun.

The rare characters would definitely be great to have in the cavalcades! I keep an eye out always hoping.
