Characters?

[wdwdancerwannabe]

If you had a whole day to spend on doing nothing but finding characters - where would you go?

Epcot, AK? Is there a place in the world where you can run into the most characters?

I'd say Epcot!! Each Counrty has a character
China= Mulan & Mushu
Norway= The Princess character meal
Mexico= Donald, Jose, and Panchio
Morocco= Aladdin, Jasmine, and Genie
England= Whinnie the Pooh Characters (Pooh, Eeyore, Tigger, Piglet, & Rabit ) Mary Poppins, Bert, Alice, Mad Hatter, Tweelde dum, tweedle dee, Mr. Penguin, and Queen of Hearts
America= it changes every day.
Canada= Brother Bear characters
Every other Country I forgot!!!!
There also other places in Epcot where you can find characters.

Interesting question! You'll get a variety of answers, I bet!

If the trip is somewhat soon, I say MGM. MGM can a big variety of characters by the Big Hat. These characters rotate in and out roughly every 30 minutes or so. If you pass by every 30 minutes, there could be different characters out. Though sometimes you can hit a boring day and just see common characters like Goofy, Pluto, Minnie, Donald, Tigger, Pooh, Eeyore, Chip, Dale, and Stitch. If you are there on a good day, it's possible you could see more interesting characters like Clarice, Lilo, Chicken Little, Jafar, Cruella, White Rabbit, Queen of Hearts, Mulan, Pocahontas, Snow White, and more!

If you wander around MGM and get there early (well before the parade), you can find the Power Rangers, some Little Einsteins, Mr and Mrs Incredible, and Jojo and maybe Goliath. Mike and Sully may be out, too, plus visiting Al's Toy Barn you can find Buzz, Woody, maybe Green Army Man and Jessie. MGM can be hit or miss though, depending on who's out on any given day! But it has good potential for having many different characters to meet.

And like Nickeymouse said, Epcot's World Showcase can be a very fun character place, as there can be characters in so many of the countries! The nice thing about Epcot is that the characters stay out later than in other parks. Often in the other parks, the characters stop meeting before the parade and never return, but at Epcot, they tend to meet throughout the afternoon.

I agree with everything just said!

I would just like to mention that most of the world show case characters are only at peak times. such as rafii and timon at the african outpost, and Koda and Kenai.

I think that if I spent a whole day looking for characters, I'd park hop. If I had to choose one, it would be either EPCOT or MK.

At EPCOT, you've got the Character Connection which has to be one of the best locations to meet Mickey and friends (air conditioning, short waits, cool backdrops... what more could you want?). World Showcase has a lot of the classic movie characters like Belle, Beast, Mary Poppins, Snow White, Mulan, Aladdin, Genie, etc. Plus there's a few really cool characters that appear at EPCOT and pretty much nowhere else like Figment and the Caballeros. Plus, lines normally seem more managable here than at other parks.

MK also has tons and tons of the classic characters too. Lines are typically longer here, but you also get Ariel, the Peter Pan characters, Prince Phillip, and some of the newer characters like Clarabell, Horace, and Brer Fox that you won't find in other parks.

MGM is also a good spot, but there's a good number of characters there that just don't interest me (Power Rangers, Little Einsteins, JoJo's Circus, ect). I'd check out the characters at the Hat, the PIXAR characters, and Kim and Ron but that's about it. Can't see myself spending a whole day looking for characters there.
