Kylo Ren Character Meet and Greet?

[viluvsdisney]

Is there such a thing - has anyone met Kylo Ren in the parks? Thanks!

Yeah it's in the launch bay, same place you meet Chewie/Vader/Boba. Which character they have out is random though. I've gone some days and Boba was not there and some days where Kylo wasn't there etc..

Silly question (sorry) - is that in front of the ride?

Chewie and Kylo Ren have fairly fixed meet and greets in Launch Bay (the old Innoventions building). You can see what times they're supposed to be there in the Disneyland App.

Its the old innoventions building. To the left of Pizza Port and to the right of Autopia. Hope this helps!

It is inside the launch bay. You won't miss it inside there, just to back and left of the entrance. The launch bay isn't so large you will miss it. There are a few different line ups at the same time with the character you will meet labelled at the front of the queue. By the way, if you haven't done the photos yet, be sure that they will incorporate anything you bring. The people in front of me had a red lightsaber when they met Chewie. He got "upset" and nicely required that the saber be removed. When my DS5 went up he was wearing a Kylo Ren t-shirt. Chewie didn't seem pleased. I said "Too soon?"

We did the Disney Visa Card meet & Greet with Kylo Ren (my signature picture!) in February. Awesome. My son was dressed as captain Phasma and the interaction was fantastic!!! Kylo Ren took him aside, gave him tips on how to conquer the galaxy and then the universe. 6-year old was in HEAVEN!!! Not a hugger, though ;-)

So if you want to see 2 of the 3 characters, you need to wait in the same line multiple times and hope for the best?

There's a "dark side" line for Kylo Ren and a "light side" line for Chewie. No Vader anymore. I have heard that Boba Fett is sometimes in the Cantina area, but we haven't seen him ourselves.

Boba is definitely in the Cantina area on occasion. I was at Launch Bay four times during my last trip and was lucky enough to find him three times.

We did the Chewie and Kylo meet-n-greets in April. As a previous poster said, they are fixed meet-n-greets. We were in line to go in the building when it opened at 10, which was pointless. We had a dining reservation to make, and had to get out of Chewie's line and come back later, but his and Kylo Ren's were the same length then as they were a couple hours later. Kylo's line wasn't that bad, we waited maybe 15min, and I didn't get the sense it ever got much longer than that. There is stuff to look at in the queue (light saber display etc). Be *slightly* forewarned, depending on your kids' ages (if you have them), that some are a little nervous around him. He is playing that character well!! My 7yo really doesn't scare easily, but he was slightly nervous. It's (bad mom) funny to look back at the photos b/c he nervously shoved his hands in his pockets as soon as Kylo approached us, and he never puts his hands in his pockets! The 10yo totally "got" that he was in character, so I'm just talking younger kids. Mine obviously rolled with it despite his nervousness, but I could see toddlers/pre-schoolers freaking out when Kylo comes toward them out of nowhere and has that scary-sounding voice.

We did the meet and greet in April.. first time was with Chewy and it took about 20 minutes in line Kylo Ren was about the same.. we did Chewy the next day with different people and the line was 40 minutes.. Kylo was VERY much in character.! where us Chewy was very friendly and interactive..

That is too funny, my DD15 is a huge fan of Darth Vader and has a shirt with his image on him, I will have to let her know to wear that when we meet with Chewie .
