We found the pair at Epcot, presumably testing for Not So Scary next month. The pair was great, very interactive.

Thanks for posting those pics. My daughters are ecstatic about them being here this year, they absolutely love Jack and Sally. In fact my oldest is going to be Sally for the Halloween party this year. So getting a pic with both of them and my oldest as Sally will be priceless to me.

We cannot wait.
 
I also saw some pics posted on Facebook but there weren't any comments as to whether training would be lasting more than one day.

Yep...they tell you only today, but you never know. My advice is be there waiting when they open the World Showplace gates, because they only stay open for 7-10 minutes.

I was in Morocco today & saw a tweet that they just appeared. We hiked it over fast & the gates were already closed. We waited 15 minutes and they ended up coming back out, luckily. They close the gates very fast. You really need to plant it there and wait.

I didn't know this was predictable.

No true it's not scheduled or predictable. I mean you need to stay right in the area and basically be there when they do open for guests because they aren't open long.
 
At least Disney finally realized there's enough of a desire for these characters in WDW and not just DL.
 
I know that most of the people meeting them are older so that jack needs to be a face character, but I wish his head and mouth were more seamless

Agreed but truthfully it looks decent in person. The interaction is great as Jack was spot on character. Overall a great meet & greet.
 
We had the chance to met them in DL last year and the interaction was indeed great. Custome looks a bit strange on picture but in person, I agree it looks great!

Great for guests who got to see them before there ''grand premiere'' at MNSSHP!
 
They were meeting during Mickey's Halloween Party near the entrance of The Haunted Mansion.
 
I caught them Thursday evening - but they were in America. The area was dead, I went through the line twice; once with a screaming baby then again with a sleeping baby:

You're having WAY too much fun with this. :)

And I don't believe for a moment that precious little angel was screaming. ;)
 
So jack speaks then? That's exciting! My dd10 is creepily obsessed with them. I haven't told her they're going to be at mnsshp yet... She picked to be sally for the party How perfect :)

That is an awesome pic!! Thanks for sharing.
 
Yes, they speak, and it was pretty cool. They were very creative at the DTD meet last fall. Also, I agree that Jacks head needs to be a bit rounder, but it definitely looks much better at night with cool Halloween lighting around.

Berlioz70, what an adorable pic!!! Only fitting for such an adorable baby! You do good work ;)
