Since Ana and Elsa are sooo popular ...

than why doesn't Disney put these characters in more parks ? I mean really...4 or 5 hours for a character meeting ? I know that they've announced that the Frozen sisters will be moving to the MK but why not keep their meet and greet at EP too ? And while we're at it how about setting them up in HS too ?

That would make sense, but I'm guessing money has a lot to do with that. I mean, they couldn't even keep PUSH around, let alone pay the salary of 2 more sets of characters equivalent to 4 more people? Ok, so maybe I'm just still bitter about PUSH.

I just hope that they get them out of Norway. Norway is a good setting for obvious reasons but the current venue is way too small. Maybe they can build something else in another location?

Of course the insane popularity will die down eventually. Maybe that will happen once Disney builds new locations.

Well since they are moving to MK in less than a month, I would say your wish is granted.

I thought part of the issue is finding the girls with the right look. Maybe I read it somewhere?

That's what I've heard.

Along with the $$ involved staffing a duo for meet and greets - especially when the Magic involves PFH and continuous meets. And, Anna and Elsa are also in FoF without any interruption at PFH.

I got the impression they'll be leaving Norway when they start at MK - if that's the case, it makes no sense at all to not have them in both parks. But if they're in both locations, at least that would help with the crush. I haven't done much research on these two - my boys love Frozen and my baby loves the music, but I think this is one Meet and Greet we'll be able to pass on until she's a little older.

They had a nationwide 'electronic' casting call out a week or two ago (meaning, they were accepting pictures and sizing information) for girls from allover to submit for consideration to be Anna and Elsa face characters in the park. Disney has pretty tough standards for finding 'friends' of their princesses and then have to have them properly trained for the roles- it can take time. Plus they have to find girls willing to relocate to Florida, work the required hours and for the standard pay. It's not as easy as some would think it is to simply find a girl to 'put on a costume and meet kids.'

It also comes down to budget, as well. While Disney does make a very good deal of money, they still have to stick to an entertainment budget, and they simply can't pay to have a hundred girls to play princesses all the time. I think they are trying, though having them spread out to a few areas might help, I do think putting them on FP is a step in the right direction.

I hope they will. My Disney trip is a while away, and I want to meet them.
