Universal Characters

[scrappystamper1]

I have been looking for a list of what characters you might see at universal studios. Does anyone know if there is such a list? or, Can you post who you've seen? I've only been once and saw just a few like
spiderman
rogue
wolverine
shrek
fiona
tommy
chuckie

Can anyone add to my list? and also if you can tell me the GENERAL area where you saw them. I know Disney puts out a list of who can be found where (even though they may not be there all the time.)

Thanks in advance for your help.

Can you post who you've seen?

Welcome to the Dis, scrappy!

Some of our favorites aren't around anymore:
Boris Badenoff
George Jetson
Yogi Bear
Natasha Fatale

They have to be just sitting in a warehouse somewhere. I wish they would bring them back for a special event- "Characterfest!"

I haven't seen the Green Goblin in a while.

There are some stilt walkers around the Port of Entry. The Lost Continent also has a stilt walker of a green person with two dragon heads.

You can also do a meet and greet of the Sinbad characters and the Beetlejuice characters after their shows.

If Jaws breaks down, the skippers will sometimes pose by the hanging shark out front.

They must be bringing Doc Brown back as I was surprised to see him during our visit in July. He was hanging out doing pictures by Lucy. Actually saw him quite a few days we were there 7/10 - 7/19.

So there is no Dora?

I thought we might find her somewhere or does Universal not have the Nickolodeon characters.

Thanks

I heard a rumor that they were bringing him back but I hadn't seen him. I'm glad that he's back.

Dora is still there. She is often outside the front gate at Universal, near the globe and arches in the morning. I've also seen her by the Lucy tribute.

All the Madagascar characters are there also. They have a set time that they arrive right in that plaza as you exit Central Park - on the Animal Planet side. They had chalk marks on the ground on the edge of central park that you could line up on and then a cute square that said "take picture here" and then a demarcation line that said "penguin crossing." We caught the characters leaving in their float after the character meet and greet. Their meet and greet was listed in the brochure.

Maybe that would explain why the DeLorean was missing from out front when we were there. Refurbishing maybe?

Doc Brown can be seen in the latest photo update at Universal-Excitement, so he's there.

I was a meet and greet character once My little 12 yr old sister in law and I were waiting at the entrance while the others were getting their bags checked and I was posing with her and waving to people as they passed. After they took a picture of us, I continued to stand there and wave to people. A little boy walked up to me and asked "Who are you?" It was fun being an anonymous celebrity.
