Jiminy Cricket

[shyjade]

On Friday we met Jiminy Cricket at the Conservation Station in AK. One of the CM's told me they've just added him as a character meet; he replaces Stanley who used to be in the Conservation Station. Stanley can now be found outside the main entrance to AK.

I was SO EXCITED to see Jiminy Cricket! I was like a starstruck little girl!! He even kissed my hand...what a gentleman!

So, he will be there from now on? If so, that is awesome. He is so rare. I believe I have only met him once when I was really young.

 

[shyjade]

Yep, that's what the CM told me!

Oh please please please let him be there when I go in 57 DAYS (woohoo!!)!! I love Jiminy Cricket, and I have never met him before. Ah, I just get chills almost when I think about hearing him in Wishes and SpectroMagic

 

[AshleyMWC]

Oh, I forgot to ask- does anyone have pics of meeting Jiminy Cricket?!

These were taken on Friday (9/29):

And yes, I look like a dork in this photo...he was so short and crouching down so I did...

Wow! Very exciting!

Oh! We we were in AK the morning of Sept 28 (thursday) and saw Stanley at the entrance of AK and I thought to myself that it was weird since he was supposed to be at Conservation Station! Crazy! I should have known he had been replaced by another character and checked it out.

That's great! They do use him on their animal conservation literature sometimes, so it makes perfect sense to have him out and about in AK somewhere. The picture is great, hope we get to catch up with him on our upcoming trip.

I am really excited to see that a few more rare characters are being seen around the parks more often, I wonder if this is because of the YOAMD promotion? More characters make for more magical moments.

Oh my Gosh, I have been wanting to meet him like forever. We just got back a month ago and won't be going again until next year. I hope that they keep him around for a LONG while.

I am so excited to hear this news! I have been looking for Jiminy forever! I hope he stays there until we go back next September.

We did the same thing on 9/27 - and were even at the Conservation Station to get pressed coins & didn't check the characters - hopefully Jiminy will still be out in Dec.

Yea! I have a co-worker who exclaims "Jiminy Cricket" all the time and it cracks me up!

Nee Nee and Biddy LOVE your sig pic!

 

[DisneyGirlie]

i'm really excited to see him as well!
i've never seen him before, like so many others.
and as a previous poster said something about his voice. I agree. His voice is so wonderful and soothing. heehee. He totally makes "Wishes" worthwhile!

I'm so excited about this!! We are going in March, and I have always wanted to meet Jiminy. I hope he's still there at that time. Thanks for the info and the great pics!

A little off-topic, but DisneyGirlie, I have JDOCD, too, so I completely understand!

 

[Stitchfans]

Oh he is so cute/ Can't wait to meet him!!
