"Official" 2015 MNSSHP thread

Sounds like someone forgot to put the HP shirts away after last nights party.

I would think so, but they are on their own stand in a completely different place than where they have had the Halloween party stuff at the 2 parties we have been to. They were not even with the Halloween stuff. Saw someone buy one without issue. Maybe it is a bonus for today only, or maybe they realized they have a real moneymaker!

Or maybe they aren't selling enough of them at the parties?

Well seems they are still considering them "party exclusive" http://disneyparks.disney.go.com/bl...keys-not-so-scary-halloween-party-in-october/

 

[ktlm]

Maybe you are right and they aren't selling enough but we sure have seen a lot of people wearing them. Maybe they overproduced when they saw how popular they were at the first party. They were out for sale today during regular hours at Star Traders too. We saw a lady buy one there too.

Unfortunately, Peter does not meet during the party. His last set of the day is from 3:40 to 4:20. There is a slim chance that his line will still be open if you enter right at 4. I would be at the gates no later than 3:30 and head straight to his location near his ride. Good luck!!!

The Disney site says he's there til 5:30. Is that incorrect? I was hoping to meet him too, but we won't be able to get to that area of the park til 4:30-4:45.

We went to last nights party. We had emailed, paper tickets, with no magic bands. Since we went to Disney Springs before arriving we had those switched over there. It was about a 10 minute process, and the fp+ we set up worked flawlessly on the the three mountains. They were unable to do the one day memory maker though and had that set up at will call at the TTC. Only took about 5 minutes.

Our priorities were rides, photos, and parade/CTM/Hallowishes. Specifically, the mine train. Went on that during the first parade with a 25 minute wait, which was the longest of the night. We managed to accomplish all of these and got some good TOTing in.

When they convert the print at home voucher to actual tickets, do they ask to see the credit card or payment method like they do for Will Call? I am buying the tickets for my daughter and she will not have my credit card on her, only the voucher. (I am going to put it on her magic band, but just in case of a problem, I want to make sure she can use the paper voucher without a credit card to show).
Thanks

They did not ask for payment method, but did ask for ID.

Does anyone know if Peter Pan does a meet and greet any time from 4 til MNSSHP ends? We are going on Nov 1 and he's the only character my daughter wants to meet! Its our only day at the park (staying at universal) and our only other priorities are rides, rides, rides, rides, magic photos and the parade

We arrived at 4 and saw Peter out, not sure what time it was though. We went straight to our fp for big thunder and splash and then made our way to cosmic rays... So I would guess between 5 and 6.

I finally bought my party tickets!!!! For Oct. 22 and Oct. 25!! Now I just need to decide if I want to do the 1-day MM on the Sunday (because I also have FP+ for A&E and C&R that day) or upgrade my AP to get it for my whole trip plus a short trip in January.

When I got my HP shirt at our Halloween Party on Oct 1 the HP shirts were with the special Halloween shirts......and the cm working there was told to check armbands because non-party goers weren't even allowed to look at the shirts what a difference a week makes

Your timing is a little off with that second half of the night.

There is about an hour between the end of the fireworks and the start of the second parade. Most characters are also done around 11:30, which is when the parade ends if you watch from Frontierland, so you wouldn't be able to get any characters in after.

With the classic gang as your lowest priority, cut them out and move everything up. Cruella -> ToT to Lotso -> Lotso -> Pooh gang -> Fireworks -> Jack Sparrow -> Parade -> ToT -> HP Show
If you can get in Cruellas line earlier (maybe eat in line, or make dinner quick), you might be able to get the classing gang in without too much delay. I have seen their line fluctuate anywhere from 20 minutes to an hour, so its hard to know.

We waited over an hour for Cruella?

We've been here a week and this was the first day we saw them out with regular merchandise. When we got ours at the party last Sunday you could not even get near them without a party wristband.

I got my info from Kenny The Pirate, but this is what MDE shows...

From Twitter -- looks like tonight's party is sold out!

Funny thing of the day: I was in my Photopass account, adding characters' signatures to photos. That's when I realized that there are only 6 dwarfs in my photo! For those of you who still remember, my previous posts mentioned that the Photographer kept taking close-ups of me so after waiting for 2 hours, I only have ONE photos with all 7 dwarfs. Boy, was I wrong! I have NO photo of all 7 dwarfs! There were only 6, Sleepy was not at the meet and greet. He was probably fast asleep somewhere.

The funny thing was, I counted myself in the photo and did not realize that one of the dwarfs was missing

Eeyore wasn't with his friends, Pooh, Tigger, and Piglet, either......apparently he couldn't find his tail at the Halloween party on 10-4-15.

They have really cool frames that are perfect for Halloween photos in the Memento Mori shop. They are sold separately from the creepy photos they take there! Those photos they take must be the very best Disney souvenir of all!!! We love ours and have it hanging right in our front hallway for Halloween.

Thanks for the tip! I will deinfitely be looking into those on the next trip!

 

[disneydude365]

ok so i was wondering )Peter pan has a scheduled meet and greet starting at 3:50pm on october 27th party night( we have park hopper passes and are going to be in AK till afternoon of that day we were planning on showing up around 4pm for the party

but go with me here what are the chances of me getting in (since we have park hoppers) a tad early say like 3:30pm and trying to get in line for him, while in my costume. any chances of this happening?

 

[minniemous]

Is there a printable MNSSHP brochure? A couple years back when I went there was brochure you could print with the parade times etc. Also I know it must be obvious but I can not find a schedule of character meet and greets at the party? When I look under the party it says no schedule available? Is it found in a specific place and I am missing it. Thank you for any help.
