Just there on Sat., 9/14. Joy, Sadness, and Baymax were in their regular spots. Mickey, Minnie, Goofy were in the same building as Joy and Sadness but at a difference entrance - continue around the corner heading towards the Living Seas and there is an entrance for them on the right. Not sure about Ralph and Vanellopee. We made a special trip down on Saturday just to see Sadness as we heard the same rumors you're reporting that she will no longer be out after the remodeling. My daughter will be distraught if that truly does happen. Praying Disney has a change of mind but I doubt it. They did have a cart with Joy, Sadness, and Baymax merchandise outside the meet and greet but that can be moved very easily I'm sure (or reloaded with something else later.)
