new(er) Character Meet and Greets

[2Gma]

Wondering what some of the new(er) meet and greet opportunities are? This will be our 5th trip so trying to find a few new ones we haven't got yet!

We just did Elena and Merida last trip. Not new, but newish. My daughter loves Elena and they were whispering to each other so who knows. It was cute but I have no idea what they said. Lol

But, Merida was FANTASTIC!!!! So in character and fun and silly. Best experience we've ever had w a character!!! And her set up is great, and they even had coloring sheets for the kids while you wait (although not long wait).

We took a pic w Cruz in HS. Cute, she talks (out of speakers, doesn't actually move).

Saw that Timon is starting soon at AK. Didn't catch the date. It's on the side bar here

Timon starts meeting in AK October 1.

I believe Tarzan leaves AK September 30.

Totally forgot about Elena, haven't seen her show but maybe will before we leave. Merida has been our favorite too of the face characters. She was fantastic and spent time with us despite it being a million degrees outside and the 2nd to last family in the set.

Of course after posting I decided to check the online Times Guide and found who (most likely) will be there next week.

I think we might have to splurge and do MNSSHP just to meet a few new characters!! I see there are still tickets left for next week.

Cool! I'll have to go see Timon and tell him to say hi to Bunga for me.

OP, I met Elena this year, she was sweet. I really like her show; check it out if you get the chance.

Be aware of you try to meet party characters they will take up almost the entire party. The lines for the take hours, unfortunately

Star Lord and Baby Groot meet in HS
BB8 also meets in HS

Also, if characters area your thing you may want to check out Kenny the Pirate's site

Yes, unfortunately, I've read that. We've went to WDW in Sept several times and this will be the first year my kids *might* be old enough to make it the whole party and worth the extra $$$.

I guess you'll just have to go grope Gaston instead, like I did!! Gosh, I truly hope that guy laughs when he tells that story. ...

Our first trip with kids is coming up - hoping to make it through without anyone crashing!! Wish us luck!
