pretty awesome pic from todays parade...I spy @The Sunrise Student and Mr. Sunshine holding the flags in the back

This was super exciting and Vanessa was so sweet, she was worried about blocking me so she ducked my poor fiancé wasn't as lucky but you can see the top of his head.

Great first half of the day so far! Ate breakfast at Sci Fi, met Darth Maul, got the Boba Fett stein with glow cubes, watched @The Sunrise Student carry the flag in the parade, and rode Star Tours many times We are taking a break at the resort at the moment but will be back for our Rebel Hangar ADR, more M&G's and the dessert party! Hopefully meeting once we return!

Has anyone done the sign ups for Padawan Mind Challenge?
Curious to know how big of demand there was for that line at rope drop, and how quickly the slots fill up.
Also curious to know about how many kiddos they sign up for each show.

We plan to go there asap on our day (weekend IV) but I haven't heard any reports from people who have done it yet.

thanks so much!

How were the lines for Star Tours?

I'm really hoping there's still Fett steins for next weekend. Keeping my fingers crossed.

Do you mean you want to do these, or get sample pics?

I'll check the locations and what they are. I've seen them do the one where you fight with Vader and where you Force Push the stormtroopers

 

[yulilin3]

because I'm bored and I have awesome friends that will do crazy stuff, @The Sunrise Student and Mr. Sunshine will wave at us once they get to MK.She's wearing a black and blue maxi dress and fiancee has a 501st black polo.
I'll let you know when they are almost there

Ok cool. That's the one we did. To the right of the bounty hunter meet area, red background. Photographer was great - did a bunch of variations for us. DD alone, DS alone, all of us together. Both for the Vader and the force push one. It was VERY quiet in that spot when we were there.

I saw it last week but forgot to get a picture for the DISsers

Has anyone found the Boba Fett steins anywhere other than Darth Mall? I am going tomorrow. We were there last weekend but they were sold out.

Also I have read the glow cubes are $4 each if purchased without a drink. I did have a RH reservation last weekend and they would not let me purchase glow cube separately, so it may depend on who and where you ask.

Got our steins this morning at peavys. They had a lot of them

I'm sure the thread will get to 1,000 pages by the time I get back from San Diego on Monday! (Leaving in 10 minutes!) Have fun weekend IIs!

There they are now.

I'm so glad my friends get and embrace my weirdness

Sabine and Ezra appear in the PMC at 4:25pm. They go in and take about a 30 minute break. So I think they come to the Hangar around 5:30 to 6pm

This is a great example of the invaluable advice on this thread. I had an early reservation to avoid waits, but now I know I need it a little later if I want to see Sabine and Ezra. I hadn't even considered their participation in PMC. Thanks!

 

[dkfajr1]

I am sure this has been answered but for the life of me I can't find it. Please bear with me.
Do they do autographs at
The Jedi Mickey dinner or is it a card? Or nothing?

 

[dkfajr1]

Also. Do the DVC kiosks have the posters still for the day? I forgot to grab them there or at the AP place this morning. I'm sure they are out for AP for the day. DH was stung by a wasp so we had to come back to the resort for a bit and are heading back later for our dinner

we are trying to time it out too. We have a 4:25 for tomorrow and will eat veeeeeeery sloooooowly to see if we meet them. My daughter will be wearing her costume again tomorrow

It's one card. On one side it says Jedi Mickey's Dinner
and the other the signature of all the character. Their generic one, not Jedi Mickey but just Mickey. All in one card
