Where is the best place to spot Mulan?

Usually she appears throughout the day in the China Pavilion in EPCOT. Sometimes she is with her dragon friend Mushu.

Hi! We will be in WDW in two weeks.... is there a regular place that Captain Hook can be found? Thank you!

I'm wondering if anyone has seen any Duck Tails characters lately? We saw Scrooge McDuck at Mickey's Christmas Party, but is he or any others out during the year? Ever seen them at the Halloween Party? thanks for your help!!!

Sorry if I'm wrong but my duck tale days were rare. I have seen/heard rare sightings of lauch pad mc quack outside ak turn styles and on main street in mk but can't say i saw or heard of him during my late jan trip.

The one I need/want to catch with with is fliks girl Princess Atta. Of course I'd love to see Rabbit from 100 acre woods again too.

Unfortunately, Mushu no longer makes regular appearances.

Captain Hook does not have a regular location. The best place to find him is at DHS's Animation Building, click the link for more information.

You can also pay to see him at the Pirates & Pals cruise.

I'm not sure if its his regular place, but we just came back and saw Hook in DHS in the same building as the animation academy. There we also saw characters from UP, the Incredibles characters, Mickey wizard, little Einsteins, Aladdin, Mary Poppins and an evil stepmother character I think she was from Snow White.

When did Captain Hook and Mr. Smee stop meeting in Adventureland?

 

[think-like-tink]

These are making more excited for August! I love the meet and Greets. I told DH that I will not leave wdw before I meet Mulan. That is my fav. movie. I would not mind a tat of Mushu actually. But, I am big wimpy wimp meister,no tattoo for me....

Again, I am mad stalking Rabbit. I noticed that he was out last Monday and was on the Monday list again for the Goodtime Gathering Spot. Coincidence or could this become a regular occurance?

Crossing my fingers that this continues until the end of March.

me again....I just wanted to share this memory. My father who is now passed at the young age of 50, told me in my in my late 20's during a walk down memory lane that he would "rush" home from work in the afternoon to watch DuckTales and thundercats with me. We then had to sing the ducktales theme song,would you believe he remembered it better than I?

I miss my dad so much

When did Captain Hook and Mr. Smee stop meeting in Adventureland?

I was wondering that too - we just got back and every time we went through Adventureland, we hoped to see them in their usual spot, but they were never there.

We noticed a new spot for Woody and Jessie - they now hang out closer to Splash Mountain instead of by the Diamond Horsehoe porch.

We saw her last week at the China Pavillion. She was wonderful with my DD.

When did Captain Hook and Mr. Smee stop meeting in Adventureland?

They were there when we were there December 08. I do remember seeing something here on the boards a few months after that noting that they were no longer out. I believe Lilo & Stitch took their spot. And Peter Pan moved to Fantasyland around the same time.

We were there the last week of January, and everyone else's experience is pretty similar. I haven't seen Tweedledee/Tweedledum mentioned(may have just missed it), but they were at the Animation Building. I'm guessing that the Alice characters may be a bit more prominent, since the remake is coming out soon(at our local Disney Store, there was a new Alice display with new items today).

The Mary Poppins at the DHS Animation Building was great. She talked to my daughter for about five minutes, and then took her by the hand(I felt bad, since others were in line waiting) to meet Belle, who was standing nearby. Probably spent 8-10 minutes with my daughter, who will never forget it.

Haven't seen Jafar mentioned...he was at the DHS Animation building as well.

We were there Jan 29- Feb 7, and went to the Animation Building twice. You're really lucky - we didn't see Mary Poppins or Jafar there - just the Up characters, Incredibles and Mickey. I will say, the Up characters were so fabulous! Carl looks adorable - it was a treat to have my picture taken with him.

When we were in Camp Minnie-Mickey, we didn't see any characters in the spot where the Pocohontas show used to be. Shame on my for not noticing this on the boards before we left - I had no idea. I'm so bummed!

 

[henrylovespooh]

My DD has been wanting to meet Marie from "The Aristocats"! She is her favoitie character and even has a Marie room! I am soooo hopefully that she will finally get her wish and she will be out in France when we are there!!!

We saw here three times there last week. To put that in perspective - we never saw Mary Poppins in the UK, no matter what time we went by.

Ok, not that I expect the characters to be out all the time but I am currently at Disney and am having a really "bad luck trip" thus far. Nobody was out at the American Adventures in Epcot on Wed. and now the one day I thought I was bound to get a new photo (hopefully of Snow Queen) at the Animation Building......no random characters at 5. The CM I talked to said it's about 98% chance they are out each day, I just happened to hit the 2% on the day I picked to go to Hollywood Studios.

We were only going to go to Studios for an early half day on Saturday before taking off, but I would love to stay to see if the Snow Queen or others come out.....however the family is starting to revolt on me saying that I keep delivering on empty promises.

We were there last week and found characters hit or miss as well. I thought we saw a good deal until I'm seeing what other people are posting - and now I feel like I missed so much! I see lots of people talking about all the characters they saw at the DHS Animation Building, and either there's a part of the building I don't know about, or we hit it when only the Incredibles, Up and Mickey were there.

Good luck to you!

The UP characters, Mickey and the Incredibles are the regulars in the Animation Building. They extra random characters come out at a very specific time, usually between 4:45 and 5. They switch off with others sometimes too. Then they are gone. You have to be there at that time or you will miss them completely. And there are still some days they don't come out at all.

We were finally lucky enough to be there on our trip last fall. It was AWESOME for a character fan like me. I gave the Evil Queen my trip book to sign, and she actually started reading through it and making fun. It was HYSTERICAL. She found my page of trip priorities, one of which was to attend what I dubbed "Character Palooza" in the Animation Building. She looked at her handler and said (completely in character) "Character Palooza???? I that what they're calling us????" It was SO much fun!

Did you look back inside the shops? Sometimes they are inside...

I am with you. I love Rabbit. My AK day in April is WED. I hope he is out WED too or i may have to re-work my schedule.....
