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

And Cinderlla is usually at Akershus even though she is at CRT, too.

Is that relatively recent?

We've been 3 years in a row (Dec 2009, Dec 2010, Oct 2011) and have NEVER seen Cinderella at Akershus. It's been some combination of Belle (greeter photo, always), Ariel, Aurora, Snow White, Jazmin, and Mulan.

Have they added her to the mix? Or were we just really unlucky?

I think it's just luck of the draw. We've seen her there several times over a number of years.

 

[hollygolitely93]

That's right! Then I'm with you she'll most likely be dropped...maybe Rapunzel would be added...hope, hope, hope or Merida...someone my toddler actually knows

Wait...I just read on KennythePirate that belle drops from the theater and aurora most likely goes back in...thus maybe she stays at CRT...

Also Gaston will have a Meet and Greet...yippee!

That was breakfast in October 2011 and October 2010. Both of those times it was Belle greeting, Ariel, Snow, Aurora and Cinderella in the dining room.

NOOOO! That would mean she's not in her yellow gown anywhere in the park. And no autographs either.

With our current custom plans this just scares me

 

[hollygolitely93]

Could she go to gold gown at CRT??? Or would that conflict with Akershus too much. She has to give autographs somewhere in MK...don't you think?

Everyone always said her dress was too big to wear at CRT and move around. I'm not sure if that's the case, but could be an issue. Also, I just don't see them having her apper in such close proximity and within sight lines of the Village.

I hadnt heard that about the dress but as my oldest is a boy we weren't looking for princesses during our previous trips . Well, I guess we will have to wait and see...I can't see why they would move her out of the theater and CRT...my street smarts tell me she'll remain in one of those venues...maybe she'll rotate in/out of CRT? I agree I can't see her in her blue dress a stone throw away from her meet and greet. Hmm...she is in her blues at epcot too isn't she? As Akershus she just does pictures no autographs in Her dress? Darn you Belle and your bountiful wadrobe!

 

[jessrose18]

I love blue dress belle...she does wear it at epcot meet and greet. I have also seen her in blue dress at dhs inside the animation building. I have also ran into her at Epcot in the am inside the building where they do the fab5 meet and greet!

If she left TST the only place to see her in her ballgown would be Akershus. And while she's pretty regular there, that's not a 100% guarantee like seeing Cindy at CRT. Out in the park at Epcot, she is in her blue. And of course, this is the first trip we're not going to Akershus.

And honestly, having her in the rotation at CRT is pretty much worthless in my book. I'd like to know in advance if I can see her. And well, I like ballgowns.

we've had Cindy our last two trips to Akershus (Belle greeting and then Snow White, Arora, Ariel, and Cindy walking around)

... wonder if they would change the host at Akershus away from Belle though ... since she is kind of the "host" of storytime would she stay the "host" for Akerhsus too?

that's what I meant - maybe they could still have her in rotation at Akershus (and CRT) but kind of weird to have her Host at Akershus when she has this whole land devoted to her now at MK.

If they really wanted a frenzy, they'd put Rapunzel out there as the host princess at Akershus.

But Belle had a storytime at the MK before and it never stopped them from having her there.

I really don't care what they do. As long as I can meet her at the MK somewhere in her ballgown.

Yes, for Feb/March 2010 and March 2011, except that in 2011 I think we had Jasmine instead of Belle, and Aurora was the greating/portrait princess.

Akershus host princess appears in her ballgown. Rapunzel doesn't have one (in the movie).

Is that a rule or something? CRT mixes princesses in ballgowns with some who aren't and I see that as a more formal setting. And we've seen Jasmine at Akershus, and she's not in a ballgown.

You could put her in the wedding dress (with short hair) she wore in the "short" about the wedding rings.

It's official cannon.

And we've seen Jazmin there...and she most assuredly was not in a ball gown.

Yea its not like her hair was an important part of the movie or anything.

 

[pilferk]

Sure it was.

But...once the movie ended...she didn't have it any more. She had short, brown hair.

So, when she got married....AFTER her hair was cut off...that's the style she was wearing.

Using the "overanalyze everything" Disney tenet:
If you're seeing her at WDW, outside her tower and with Flynn Rider, you're likely seeing her AFTER her hair was supposed to have been cut.

I'm just sayin....
