Hardest Character (mainstream) to Find?

[Pakytral]

Which, in your opinion, is the hardest character to find in the park? (I am talking mainstream, non-obscure, characters here). Last time we were there, we could never find Donald Duck. Was that an abberation, or is he generally not a common sight?

I've seen him on main street by the flag. I'm not sure how common or uncommon he is though.

I have seen Donald on every trip. Daisy is the one that is NEVER out.

I've actually seen Donald quite a few times in Town Square. In his regular blue garb and during Christmas time in a Christmas sweater and during Halloween dressed as a pumpkin (I think it's a pumpkin?). But, he's not in Town Square as often as Mickey, Minnie or Goofy.

Donald is extremely hit or miss for us. We went years without "the" Donald. I've only seen Daisy a handful of times too. Another one we haven't seen around the parks in quite some time is Piglet. We used to be able to find him over by Pooh's Corner, but haven't seen him there in ages. (Always Pooh and/or Tigger there).

We saw Beast out with Belle one time, but not since then. They were across the moat from the castle. There was almost no line for them.

Ya! I havent seen daisy in a while or Piglet! We have always seen Tigger, Pooh, And Eeyore in Pooh's Corner!!

In all our trips to Disneyland, we've never seen Daisy. We saw her at WDW the year we went. Maybe it's just our bad luck, but we've never seen Rabbit either. He's in the parades but we've never seen him anywhere.

Maybe that's because the Beast is so scary. He scared my daughter to death years ago at Minnie's breakfast. My husband recognized her scream from the bathroom. Snow White came to the rescue and tried to calm her down. I actually felt sorry for the Beast.

That is what happened with the evil Queen from Snow White with my DD.. She flipped out!!

We haven't seen Beast at all except for parades!

We have never seen Daisy but I understand she is found at a character meal (can't remember which one). I have not seen the Beast but that would be great! I think the PP might have been correct in saying he is to scary for young kids. If you don't know the movie he looks like a big beast! I was delighted to see all the villians that you never see come out at Halloween time. Can't wait to go back and meet them some year. Queen of Hearts & Jafar are 2 that stand out!

We have also never seen Donald duck hopefully in June

I love watching The Queen meet people. Her mannerisms are great and it's funny seeing people who don't know who she is get offended. I also like her distaste for little children.

I agree, she is great to watch! Also love watching Cruella!

We have definitely seen Donald but feel that he is out way less often than Mickey, Minnie, Goofy, Pluto, and Chip and Dale. We have never seen Daisy in the parks, but we did see her at the PCH grill character breakfast when it was still the Lilo & Stitch breakfast. Does she still come now that it is Mickey's breakfast? We saw Rabbit and got a picture with him once 5 years ago and have never come across him again. I'm not sure if we've ever seen Piglet.

Donald Duck can be found every day in Town Square by the flag pole in Disneyland and every day in DCA, though now that the F&W festival is there, you'll have to ask a CM where he is that day.

he is out every day in both parks. but may not be out all day. you'll have to find him during peak hours of about 9am-5pm in both parks (on average), and he may not be out ALL day, but in alternating half hours. so if you get there and see characters out but not him, you may have to wait up to 15-30 minutes for him to come out, but he will come out.

Daisy is hit or miss, she is usually found at Paradise Pier Hotel breakfasts, and can, on occassion, but rarely, be found at Minnie's breakfast.

Piglet is rarely ever out, but he does come out on ocassion. Your best and only bets are Poohs Corner and Minnie's breakfast.

Yellow Rabbit you'll find on occassion at Minnie's breakfast.

White Rabbit you'll find in Fantasyland with Alice and Mad Hatter.

I agree, she is great to watch! Also love watching Cruella!

OMG Cruella is sooo funny! last visit she chased around my dd to try and get the stuffed animal dalmation that my dd had! It was hilarious! Her interactions with kids are so funny!!

 

[bumbershoot]

We've seen Donald in Mickey's house, and Rabbit was at the Pooh's corner picture spot. I would swear we saw Piglet too, either there or at Minnie's breakfast...

For us the fun one was Peter Pan roaming between Matterhorn/Teacups/Small World. We hadn't seen him before!
