Rapunzel - at Epcot????

[DisGal520]

Was told that someone on another .com thread said Rapunzel and Flynn were at Epcot.

Has any Dis'er seen them at Epcot?

 

[bradk]

yes

this appears to be the photo of mine 'borrowed' the most

but i have full length photos as well as photos of their autographs

 

[DisGal520]

great-

Bradk - where did you locate them?

thanx

 

[mom of princessx2]

I hope they are still there next year!!

Great pictures!

thanx

They are NOW appearing near the World Showplace gates (12a) on the maps below-

I hope they are still there next year!!

They will soon take up a more "permanent" residence at MK at what USED to be the location of "Storytime with Belle."

(It is still called that on my older map below.)

I saw Rapunzel and Flynn at the IG inside Epcot.

This is my "unborrowed" picture that I took with my very own camera on Saturday, October 16. I also saw them on Sunday, October 17.

I love Rapunzel's dress!
Rapunzel in BradK's picture is so pretty!

Do you have photos of the signatures too?

Please note that this thread is from 2010.

It is very unlikely that you'll find Rapunzel at Epcot these days.

(Flynn Rider, basically, not seen at all anywhere during regular hours.)


But, just the same...

to the DISboards, sweetlelani!

Too bad too...... adding at least Rapunzel to a second park is something I've wanted to see for some time. It would really take away some of the craziness that goes with her at the MK.

Although....... I wouldn't be shocked to see her (or them) start showing up at Epcot briefly in the near future as they train for MNSSHP staffing.

Darn! I thought they had come to their senses and Flynn had a new PERMANENT home in Epcot. Didn't see this was from almost 2 years ago.

We are here now. Rapunzel was at Hollywood Studios yesterday. She was right outside where they have the Animation Academy drawing class. I don't know how long she was there for, but we saw her at about 10:30.

When a character gets a new friend so to speak, they spend some time hanging out in Epcot usually, which is why you have a greater chance of seeing a random character somewhere along the World Showcase that isn't usually there (a friend of mine visited over Memorial Day weekend and met Ariel and Wendy along the World Showcase - just a random character occurrence.)

Althought as Robo pointed out this thread is old I've still gotta comment. May is a popular trianing time that is not all that uncommon to see charcters out of place in the WS at the designate charcter training locations. (IG, Millenium village and American Pavillion)

Odd this is the first sighting of Rapunzel at DHS that I can ever recall. I hope you took advantage of the shorter lines. This also makes me wonder if this was just a rain location to help make the rained out days a little more special for those in the parks. It also could be training as the rumor that Rapunzel is moving to Town Square has gained alot of speed lately.

-the rumor that Rapunzel is moving to Town Square has gained alot of speed lately.

That fire-lantern has already taken flight.

Since yesterday, Rapunzel is now meeting guests inside the Town Square Theater.

Which Princesses are there now then? I mean which did she replace, for lack of a better word? Or is she on her own someplace? I'm just curious. I'm going in October but I'm still wondering about this.

She and Aurora swapped spots during the day, so up until about 5:00p it will probably be Rapunzel, Cinderella, and Belle. After 5:00p, Rapunzel alternates with Aurora, but the other two are constant.

But as Robo implied, things could change between now and October.

Errr, I just repeated him. Not fully awake yet.
