Where in the world is Lightning McQueen?

My nephew loves Cars. I was just wondering where in the world we can find the full size Cars? Are they in DHS? Where in DHS? Thanks!

We saw them in DHS on the Streets of America.

yes, DHS. currently during scheduled greets (but it will change to a permanent location). check the times guide as times and locations DO change, especially with construction going on.

Here's a photo of the current meet and greet location that was posted yesterday by mousermerf over at WDW Magic. It's near the Backlot Tour.

Do the "faces" on the cars move or speak or anything?

Do photopass photographers follow these characters??

 

[bradk]

in my experience, they do not have photopass photogs.

as far as any movements go, i believe their eyes move (but i'm not 100%). mater's engine block also tends to jiggle a lot

Are they only there at certain times now, or are they there all the time?

We saw McQueen last October, my 4 yr old nephew is a big fan and I was determined not to miss him. On our way into the park in the morning we got the character schedule. We got there early to find a line of people mostly of families with little boys. Right before McQueen comes out you hear revving of car engines. At this point step out of line and take a look at the kids it is the cutest thing in the world to see all of those little boys lined up hearing Mcqueen coming but they don't know where he is. Priceless! Anyway, he comes around the corner and drives up the street and the CMs will keep the crowd controlled so that the kids can visit one at a time and get pictures.
My only complaint is that there isn't a photopass photographer. It is definitely a don't miss if you have little people!

as i mentioned in my original response, right now it's scheduled but that will change at an undetermined time in the future. same thing happened at DCA (although now they're only in the parade at DCA)

I just saw Cars this week for the first time! It was so cute! I cried during the Our Town part and had to lay aside my hatred of all things Randy Newman. I think it's my favorite Disney movie right now.

What a dork I'm gonna be - a 40 year old woman stepping over those cute little tykes to get my photo taken with Lightning. Watch out little fellas!
