Official Fantasyland Expansion Q & A (Mickey gets evicted) PART II

[Minnie Mommy Mouse]

Berlioz,
Thanks for the pics, especially of the times sign! Helps us manage our mischief. We haven't met Terrance or Vidia yet, so we'll go early

Tomorrowland will be Mickey and Minnie. No official Disney word on who will be at Splash Mountain.

According to some recent posts, including pics, Mickey and Minnie are in their traditional clothes by Space Mountain. They're in themed clothes by Splash Mountain and Mickey is in themed clothes by the Hall of Presidents. I've seen 2 different sets of Splash outfits and 2 different HoP outfits for Mickey.

Thanks for these links! We're there in two weeks, so I assume these new positions will hold till then!

The colonial Mickey costumes are fantastic!

I wonder if Mickey will continue to be in colonial gear after today. I was assuming they are only wearing those adorable costumes because of President's Day. I would love to catch them this summer!

I didn't assume that at all since they also added him in another costume still over in Frontierland. I think they are just trying to disperse the long lines for Mickey by having him in several places. HOP works great since he's indoors and can't bee seen from Frontierland.

I would guess they'd all be out until Expo Hall is done and M&M move in there.

I agree! I'd expect the costumes to remain the same for the next month. But once he's moved to Town Square Theatre (formerly Expo Hall), he'll likely be in his tux only.

I have personally started planning a DLR trip (first time) and discovered that Mickey meets in four costumes over there. I almost peed my pants at the sight of Band Concert Mickey, my absolute favorite Mickey (I was a drum major)!!!! If they could carry that concept over to Town Square Theatre, I'd be in heaven. Not that I think it's going to happen, just wishful thinking!! Steamboat Mickey and Brave Little Tailor Mickey would be a bonus too.

So a little OT....... but what costumes does he meet in at DLR?

I just hate having the fairies move to Epcot- and in Future World, no less. Really?

 

[Berlioz70]

So where exactly are the fairies at in Epcot?

I do not think I saw this answered...

They are located just beyond MouseGear (before reaching the bridge to World Showcase). You can see MouseGear in the photo I posted.

Based on my research... at Mickey's House you can catch him on one of the following movie sets:

Steamboat Willie
Band Concert
Sorcerer's Apprentice
Through the Looking Glass

I haven't been, but that's what everyone else is saying.

I know it seems weird and just plain wrong. I think they'll blend in better once the Flower and Garden Festival begins. I also think they are leaving Epcot after the Festival ends. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

 

[think-like-tink]

I can not wait for the time to come when we move back to Florida. I so want to attend the Flower and Garden Fest.

LOL, you really are a BAD influence)). I'm going to have to keep this info under my hat until we can swing a trip out west, or I'll have a red headed uprising on my hands! My youngest is classic Mickey CRAZED, and he's already leading a charge for DLR. This would push it over the edge

I'm gonna have to sneak a peek at those costumes when they are at school . Well, my boys get it honestly haha.

Okay... I blinked and a bunch more scrims popped up...

Does ANYONE know if that stuff will be down by October's anniversary?

 

[*DisneyDreamer]

I know there have been lots of fairy questions... I was at Epoct yesterday.

They had two seperate lines, one for Tink/Terrence and one for Rosetta/Vidia. The sign also indicated the fairy set times, which I thought was a great bonus!

The line for Tink was much longer than the other. Tink line:

The Meet and Greet location was shaded, but the sun was awful for the queue. I met Rosetta and Vidia.

Hope this info helps!

Thanks for posting this! I love that they have that sign for the lines and times. And I also love that there's a time to meet just Terence! I've already gotten a pic with Tink and Rosetta, but have wanted to meet Terence. I'm going to have to check this out when I'm there in March!

According to the quote on the first post, Fairies are leaving Epcot on May 15th.

In other news, do you think the Dwarf mine train is based on this concept, presented during the student ImagiNations competition?

I prefer the Lion King theme over the Dwarf Mine theme.

 

[SparkyTheGiraffe]

Does anyone have any over the wall pics of The Expansion? You would think with all those people going to MK day after day thee would be new pics all the time!

 

[Berlioz70]

This link has all of MK construction, there are a couple of Fantasyland!

First first post has some good ones from Feb. 7th.

Likely! There is usually less construction going into the summer months (or any peak seasons). That doesn't mean new things won't go under construction in September though.
