Ponchito, Donald Duck and Jose Carioca

[alan01]

On another disney site someone posted that these 3 will start appearing at Mexico in Epcot. Can anyone confirm this? Maybe Joanna? Thank you.

That would be fun..... Mexico needs something - I was just thinking that the other day when I was making a list of characters in EPCOT - that and Norway - I guess since the have the "rides" - they have felt that was the "attraction" for children!

We will keep our eyes out!

It's Panchito. I am hoping this rumor is true as well.

I actually saw Donald in a Mexican type costume in 1999 at the Mexican pavillion at Epcot. At the time I did wonder what on earth Donald was doing there, but having now seen The 3 Cabelleros I understand, would make sense to have the other two there also.

Any excuse for some new characters, I'll be there!

That would be awesome to see Pancito out again. I saw him at EPCOT more than a decade ago, so it would be great to see him return after all these years. I hope it's true too.

Panchito and Jose used to be out and about in WDW. I have me on video with them in 1988. I somehow decided that Panchito's name was GeetoGeeto despite having seen The Three Caballeros. I was an odd two-year-old.

I would love to see more characters out and about.

Not me for sure - just collectively - In fact - I looked it up before even posting that the parrot was Jose!!! I don't think we have ever watched the movie -

glad to hear I'm not the only one. even have a trading pin but, never bothered to check.

saw the movie (rather short ) years ago on disney channel(?). I'll watch anything with Donald in it.

 

[meeko_33785]

That's exciting! Hopefully I'll finally get to meet Jose soon.

 

[Shubunk]
