For anyone coming the first couple of weeks to the dessert party, entertainment CM have their schedules out and it is confirmed that the "Holidays Happen Here" dance party will continue, at least until Jan. 16th (which is as far as their schedules go) I'm assuming this dance party will continue to be offered before the fireworks for the duration of the dessert parties.
As of now the dance party is from 5 pm to 7:30 pm with the dessert party starting at 7 pm and fireworks at 8 pm. The dance party offers a DJ, dancers and rare characters that come out an dance with everyone. Remember no autographs or posed pictures during dance parties. Characters that I've seen so far during this dance party are Genie, White Rabbit, Bolt, Robin Hood, Sebastian, Baloo, Chip and Dale.

If you have the LE Kylo Ren MB there's a new surprise when you enter DHS and when you use it at the FP locations
When used it will display a red to green light sequence with a lightsaber sound
I haven't seen this personally but I'll try and see if I can get video.

thanks for the video. I don't wear any jewelry or things around my wrists so I never buy the MB. This looks neat

Can these only be bought onsite and not online?

I see it on Disney Store.com, but it doesn't say limited edition. It may just be a regular one.

it looks like the same one they sell in the parks. I'm not sure

That's the red and black Kylo Ren MB which was released on September 4th and doesn't activate anything. Maybe it didn't sell very well @ that price. The colors of the original look much better than the new Limited Release MB.

here's a pic of the LE Kylo MB

I'd love a Rey magic band. When tapping the Mickey head, you'd hear "where's my action figure?" Has anyone seen anything remotely like a doll for Rey at the parks? I think DD11 would love one. My target had a Jar Jar figure of all things but no Rey.

The Disney Store has the elite series, I have Rey, she comes with BB8. It's very well done and has a stand base.
In the parks I have seen Rey in the Black Series but it's the first to sell out each time they have her in stock

I'm really surprised that they didn't make Rey as one of the 12.5" dolls. DD9 got this size Finn and Kylo Ren for Christmas and would have loved Rey that size. That said, she does love the Elite Series smaller Rey figure with BB-8 that she received.

Rey was even more awesome than I thought she would be. I hope they do start selling more of her merch. She is one of the best SW female characters so far, but I guess that's not saying too much in the male-dominated SW world.

My daughter is hoping that they don't develop a romantic story for Rey...she told me "why can't she just be friends with everyone and not fall in love, just let her keep being awesome"

Princess garbage all over again A woman doesn't have to have a man. I guess men just can't deal with that

My middle daughter was never into Barbies much. She did like the Monster High dolls. But this was a kid who grew up obsessed with Gamera and Godzilla movies. Mothra is still her favorite kaiju, because Mothra is female. It wouldn't surprise me if Rey were the reason she now calls herself a SW fan. I saw Lego is coming out with a Rey buildable figure in January. And the new Millenium Falcon set comes with her and an aged Han. I'm seriously tempted to pick it up.

I do wonder if TPTB assumed most Star Wars fans were male and wouldn't want to buy a girl toy. I had the Han Solo and Luke figures when I was a kid. Both were played with to death. My sister's Leia doll is still pristine.

I agree with your daughter.

I don't mind a "love story" -- I mean, it's a real part of life -- even for awesome, powerful women!! I just wouldn't want that to take over, or be THE storyline for her.

For anyone coming the first couple of weeks to the dessert party, entertainment CM have their schedules out and it is confirmed that the "Holidays Happen Here" dance party will continue, at least until Jan. 16th (which is as far as their schedules go) I'm assuming this dance party will continue to be offered before the fireworks for the duration of the dessert parties.
As of now the dance party is from 5 pm to 7:30 pm with the dessert party starting at 7 pm and fireworks at 8 pm. The dance party offers a DJ, dancers and rare characters that come out an dance with everyone. Remember no autographs or posed pictures during dance parties. Characters that I've seen so far during this dance party are Genie, White Rabbit, Bolt, Robin Hood, Sebastian, Baloo, Chip and Dale.

This is not DJ Elliot right? I was looking at some photos and all I could really find were those characters in scarves and things. Is it too much to hope that when the SW fireworks start they add in some SW characters too?

It's not DJ Elliot, he's working inside Club Disney and actually he does a little SW mix in there.
I really don't think we will see any SW characters before the fireworks but who knows.

I have a question perhaps you can help me with. I have in February schedule for that Saturday the villains dance club that they're doing a limited run at Disney Hollywood studios as well. It almost basically sounds like what you are describing with the holiday dance club. I have to be honest reason I want to do it was to get maybe some pictures with some of the rear of the main characters that they will have their. Hearing what you're saying that there will be no chance for meet and greet chances to take pictures do you think that'll be the same for the villain dance club. Because that's basically the reason I'm doing this I would love to get some pictures with some of those characters. Just asking your opinion and thanks in advance.
