I've been at Disney for 5 days and kinda went a little crazy getting pictures with the characters. I've managed to meet about 50 of them including all 7 dwarfs, and Ariel with and without legs in that list. My favorites were the evil step sisters. They were so funny. Anyone else have favorites?
 
I liked him too. I tried insulting him, but he always had a come back. He was so obnoxious. Lol.
 
Mexican Donald is one of my favorite meet and greets. Met talking Mickey a couple of weeks ago and that was fun.
 

We had a wonderful experience with Peter Pan. There was no one inline behind us, so our DD just talked and talked wth PP. He was wonderful!
 
I met Gaston and Belle as a duo and it was such a riot! Watching all the interactions in line were great, too! Also loved Cruella-- hilarious! Very entertaining. I'd love to meet more villains on future trips. Meeting the step sisters sounds so fun!
 
Tiana and Naveen. They were always perfect together

I got to meet them together in 2013 and they were great, so much fun. I've met Tiana again since (different friend), and she is my favorite meet & greet princess,,so friendly and chatty.

For me, though, Phineas and Ferb. I love them, and went to see them every year (2012-2015). Now their m&g is gone. :sad: At least they are still in "Move It Shake It." They were great.

^^ lol! I spent the last 5 days at Disney doing pretty much the same! I wonder if our paths crossed?

I didn't get around to Anastasia and Drizella, but I particularly enjoyed Gaston (!!!), Snow White in MK (she spent about 10 minutes with me), Jack Skellington (the "friend" of Jack at this year's MNSSHP is incredibly talented and perfect) and I always, always LOVE meeting Goofy! Because he's so goofy!

Edited to add: The villain meets at Club Villain are also EXCELLENT. Cruella especially!

***Spoiler ahead if you never saw Beauty and the Beast***


Gaston was funny. When I went to meet him and Belle, I pushed him out of the way, and put my arm around Belle. As he was talking about how great he was, I had asked "Didn't you fall off a cliff?" And he response was he had on bouncing clothing or something. And as he continues to talk about himself, I make the blah blah blah hand movement, and he said "Oh, you've heard the story already?" That made me laugh.
 
Gaston was great.

We also had a really wonderful Buzz Lightyear meet, and an excellent meet with Chip and Dale in Epcot.
 
  • The Tremaine Family (when Lady Tremaine was included). My DH and I proposed to the sisters and because my last name is King and my husband's first name means "little king", they were thrilled to be marrying royalty. However, I never did return to give Drizella her big jeweled crown. We also talked of Cinderella and how she lives in a fantasy world and is a liar.
  • Betty Shambles (Hollywood Citizen). She was a riot! My DH participated in their skit and finally got her into the restaurant she wanted to go in, but was always denied. He may have proposed to her as well and he got one of her love coupons!
  • Donald and Daisy when they met at AK together. Daisy was sassy and loved the compliments we gave her and Donald turned his back on us when we teased that Mickey was #1.
  • Loved all the interactions of the Breakfast crew of 1900 Park Faire (Pooh, Tigger, Alice, Mad Hatter, and Mary Poppins).
  • I also have a soft spot for the White Rabbit and Eeyore.
 
King Louie and Baloo were hilarious. I brought a shoe for them to sign and they were making jokes about the smell and hung it on the Christmas tree as an ornament!
Rafiki was great, I gave him a blue marker and said it matched his eyes, and he turned around to let me know it also matched his butt! hahah
Mickey and Minnie in AK were so sweet they had us do a couples kiss and they kissed too <3
Alice and Mad Hatter were so bubbly and had great energy. Mad Hatter saw Lady Tremaine had signed my shoe and commented on the irony haha
 
We met around 50 characters last visit. My favorites were:

- Tinkerbell (twice!)
- Mad Hatter
- Merida
- Gaston
- Aladdin & Jasmine
- Mulan
- Chip & Dale
- Joy & Sadness
- Dug & Russell
- Evil Queen (Palooza)
- Stepsisters (1900 PF)

The only "bad" interaction we had was with Peter Pan. He was like a plastic Ken Doll...just wanted to pose and would NOT interact with the kids. Ugh.

Maybe he was having a bad day. When I met him, he was great. The only one that I had an issue with was Elsa. She seemed a bit cold towards me. No pun intended. But then again I did try to put my arm around her, and she mentioned she was a queen, so maybe that was the reason. Anna on the other had offered me a job, hauling chocolate, and I said I would do it if I could live in the castle. She said sure, and pointed at a picture on the wall of the castle, and showed me where my room was. Of course I accepted. Lol. But remember, as much as they have fun doing this, sometimes they might have a bad day.
 
@LIPeter - I understand...the cast members are wonderful and can certainly have a bad day/moment. We were very lucky to have some outstanding M&Gs during our trip.

Peter Pan was our last M&G on our last day, so it was just a sour point. My son was excited to meet him and asked questions about Neverland and Tink, but got nothing but fake smiles and "mm-hmm" in reply. Hope Peter is in a better mood next year.
 
The Stepsisters are always great.
My friends and I had some really awesome meets with Kylo Ren and Chewie when we went one night during Fantasmic... we were the only ones in there, so we spent a ton of time with them. (Since then, I've found Kylo Ren to be pretty hit and miss).
I also love meeting Donald anywhere.
