Now that Donald is no longer at the Character Spot in EPCOT, where can you see him in his regular blue outfit? We saw him at AK last trip, but he was in his safari outfit.

He was my DD's favorite when she was 2, and I was disappointed to miss getting pics of her now at 5 with the same "classic" Donald she loved so much. (Also disappointed that the Character Spot is now only Mickey/Minnie/Goofy instead of the "Fab Five" all in one place. Makes it much less worth the wait.)
 
I'm pretty sure he doesn't appear anywhere in his regular outfit. You can double check kennythepirate.com, but the locations I know of are:

AK - safari outfit
MK - big to circus tent in magician-ish outfit
Epcot - as Senor Donald at the Mexican pavilion in Mexican attire
HS - at the sorcerer hat with Daisy - I think they are in "travel" outfits

That is correct. And it certainly is a head scratcher.

If I'm wrong, someone please correct me, but... I do not believe Donald appears anywhere in his sailor blue outfit. The closest I can think of is at the Beach Club breakfast where he has a blue outfit on, but it is embellished with "beachy" things. He appears many places, but always in some kind of thematic outfit.

Huh. That is a head scratcher for sure! You'd think they'd have the classic "Fab Five" characters available to meet somewhere.
 
The last time I saw him at the Mexico pavilion in Epcot, he had his sailor shirt on under his serape, but it was clearly visible. I don't know if that's helpful or not.
 
Come to think of it, can you find traditional mickey anywhere? They seem to use his tux as his classic outfit since, well, forever. I don't recall ever seeing the yellow shoes and shorts.
 
The only "classic" I saw in July was Minnie Mouse and Pluto when they were meeting by the flagpole in MK. I was wondering the same thing- they're always "themed"!
 
We caught Donald in his regular outfit at random in Epcot this past May. It was in that "alley" next to the American Pavilion where they sometimes do character training. We got really excited when we saw what he was wearing! I wish they would give him a regular meet and greet though, seems like we were lucky to get the opportunity we did.
 
I never even thought about this until I read the OP's post. Every picture we have with him at WDW is in a themed outfit. Now I have a mission - to find that duck!
 
Donald is no longer in the character spot?

Who's there then?

I thought they had: Mickey, Minnie, Donald, Goofy and Pluto all to meet so you get them all at once!

Yes! I caught them in this spot last month when I was there for Food and Wine. Donald in his blue sailor outfit was the character I made a beeline to, I was so excited to see him. Mickey, Minnie, Goofy, Daisy, and Pluto were all there in their traditional outfits as well, along with Winnie the Pooh, Rafiki, and Brer Bear and Fox, I believe.
