I was able to see 80+ characters during my last trip, thanks to help I recieved from these boards. There are still some characters that I really want to meet, and was wondering if anyody had see them recently.

Atta, the princess from A Bug's Life
Bert, from Mary Poppins
Bullseye and / or Buzz Lightyear from Toy Story. Also, are there any other Toy Story meet and greet characters? Like Bo Peep?
Clarabelle the cow
Clarice, the chipmunk
Esmeralda, and any other Hunchback of Notre Dame characters, (except for Frollo,) but especially want to add Esmeralda to my collection.
Darth Vader, or any other Star Wars characters. I heard there now appearing more, and not just at the Star Wars weekends in May.
Any of the Seven Dwarfs, I saw them last year, but they weren't signing.
Frozone, from the Incredibles
Horace, the horse
Jiminy Cricket
Meg, and any other Hercules characters, except for Hercules
Jose Carioca and Panchito
Prince Phillip, Eric, Charming, or Snow White's Prince.
Pocahontas, and / or Ratcliffe, and John Smith, though I think I have almost no shot at finding John Smith. But I really want to meet Pocahontas.
Rabbit, and I has Kanga, ever done meets and greets?
Tarzan
Thumper, from Bambi. I know, I'm getting my hopes up with him, but he's just so cute. LOL.

When were the dwarfs out? Did they sign? Were they in Germany?


disneyphilip - Was it this year or last year that you saw Rabbit at MVMCP?


disneyfav4ever - Atta has been at AK recently, either across from Pizzafari, or near ITTBAB. Have a great trip, and good luck with your character search! We leave Sat., and are looking for some of those characters too. :)

I'll be at Pop as well. :goodvibes Only three more days to go.
 
We saw Darth Vader & 2 storm troopers. Got their autographs & they posed for pics in front of the speeder bike. It was not listed anywhere, just happened to be in the right place at the right time - and DS is a complete Star Wars freak - so this was huge for him!!! Afterwards we went to ride Star Tours (that's what we were going to do when we saw them come walking out & we followed them) & we asked the CM at the entrance to the FP line if DV normally makes appearances & he said they don't list them anywhere because it gets too crazy, but did let us know when he would be back later in the afternoon, so if that is something you really want to do, I would ask the CM at Star Tours if they will be appearing that day.

We saw Buzz & Woody at Al's toybarn at MGM, but we also happened to catch the end of Woody's Cowboy Camp in Frontierland at MK, and it had Woody, Jessie & Bullseye in it. You couldn't get autographs, but we took some pics.

We also got autographs from 2 out of 3 of the Cabellero's in Mexico. Not sure why they all weren't there!

We were bummed we never timed it right for Belle in France or Mulan in China. We did get the beast though!

Good luck!!!
 
Last April I saw Esmerelda by the train station in Toontown. Got some great pics of her. Also saw all 7 dwarves in front ot the train station (on the entrance side and caught a Stormtrooper after getting off star wars ride. The dwarves and ST were a year ago July though.

The penguins from Mary Poppins?? - MVMCP

LOL. I was just about to do a post just like this. I'm looking for a couple of the same characters as you (Horace, Clarabell, Jose Carioca), so I'm glad to see info about where they've been. Also, since you asked about Bo Peep, I will say that she has done meet-and-greets in the past (I met her at MGM years ago), but she doesn't really do meet-and-greets anymore and only appears in the Stars and Motor Cars Parade.

That's Launchpad McQuack. :thumbsup2
 
This is from our trip almost exactly 2 months ago (we arrived 2 months ago today, but didn't see many characters until the next day ;) )

Bert, from Mary Poppins: He was meeting, with Mary Poppins, in front of the Sorcerer's Hat at MGM in the afternoon when we were there (Mr. Penguin was also with them)... signing & photos both.

Buzz Lightyear from Toy Story: Buzz was found at MNSSHP at the Buzz Lightyear ride & have heard he's around there occasionally (cannot verify this).

Clarabelle the cow: She was in the area near the Roy Disney & Minnie Mouse statue near the entrance to MK (can't think of what they officially call that area).

Any of the Seven Dwarfs, I saw them last year, but they weren't signing.: Dopey was with Snow White during MNSSHP (all 7 were supposed to be there but they "had a problem in the mine" during the only time we got there, ARGH!). However, Dopey was all by himself & SIGNING in Epcot near the International Gateway entrance to World Showcase (my wife got her last pic & autograph on our last day from Dopey, & told him so :) )

Prince Phillip, Eric, Charming, or Snow White's Prince.: Prince Charming & Prince Phillip were both at MNSSHP at Mickey's Toontown Fair (Princess Aurora was feeling ill after signing a bit so she had to leave before we arrived (sigh)).

Sorry, those are all the ones we saw & could answer. Still, hope you find ALL you're looking for!

Enjoy the Magic!
 
We just saw Esmerelda at the Princess lunch in Norway 11/29- no one knew who she was! People in the buffet line were all "abuzz"!!!

We were assuming it was her- but we asked our waitress just to be sure!
 
On my trip last month, I saw some of the characters:

I saw Darth Vader and two Stromtroopers at MGM last month (on Tuesday Nov 7th at 11:00). Never seen them before except for Star Wars Weekends.

Horace and Clarabelle were in Town Square, but not every day. On our 10 day trip, we went to Magic Kingdom five different mornings, and they were greeting on two of them.

We saw Clarice at the Big Hat at MGM one day, and inside the ToonTown Hall of Fame on another (she was listed as a "mystery character").

Jose and Panchito were out on different days at Epcot. We never found all Three Caballeros out at once!

We met Prince Charming inside the ToonTown Hall of Fame in a room with Cinderella, Belle, and Snow White.

Frozone was inside the Animation Building on one day out of three days that I checked.

I saw Rabbit at the American Adventure meeting somewhere around 3:30 or 4:00, can't remember exactly!

We saw Pocahontas by the Big Hat at MGM around 4:15 one afternoon.

I did see Esmeralda in France last December, but not more recent than that.

Hope you find many of those characters you listed!! Good luck on your trip!! :)
 
Thanks for all of the replies. I have twelve days, so I hope I can get a lot of characters. And I have two MVMCP to go to, which now I'm glad of, because if I really wanted to, I could just spend one whole party looking for characters. I did that last year at MNSSHP, only stopping my character hunting for Hallo-Wishes, and the second parade, and that night I was able to get a lot. So maybe I'll use the same stragedy for MVMCP.
 
We were in WDW on Dec 1 -3 and were able to see Prince Phillip and Aurora and Cinderella and Prince Charming. They were both at Toon Town Fair the night of the MVMCP. That night we saw Snow White with her prince.
