Where is Bambi???

[tripplanner2]

I am watching Bambi with my kids in preperation for our upcoming trip and I am thinking to myself, "Where can we find Bambi in the parks?". Does anyone know? I think he does not exist.

Sadly no. I've heard that Thumper is a rare meet-n-greet character, but no Bambi. I guess they have the same logisitic difficulty with Bambi as they do with Nemo.

That is so sad. You would think they would at least have a dark ride or something.

I would love to get a picture with Bambi in the parks. I wish they had more Bambi stuff in DisneyWorld. I would love a Bambi ride

I missed Thumper by a day Thumper was doing pictures at the Animal Kingdom around the time when Bambi came to dvd. I was in the Magic Kingdom and a cast member told me that Thumper was at the Animal Kingdom doing pictures. As soon as I heard that Thumper was in the Animal Kingdom, I rushed out of the Magic Kingdom like lighting, and I was all excited, because I was going to get a photo taken with Thumper. But when I got to the Animal Kingdom, they said I missed him by a day

Yep, only Thumper is a meet-and-greet character, and he is super super rare! I don't know if he's been out at all this year, as I haven't heard anyone posting about meeting him. Yes, Bambi is a very unrepresented movie at Disney World! Wish Disney would get some more characters out!

You won't see Bambi in the parks, but if you drive along Vista Blvd around sunset and look toward the trees, you will often see Bambi or his relatives.

Are those made of flowers? I would love to get there for the Flower and Garden festival but we are not off during that time of year. The decorations look outragous. Thanks for sharing your pictures.

Bambi was at WDW, but he heard that "Man is in the park" and is now in hiding.

Well that is something to tell the kids when they ask.

We are watching the very same movie now, and ds would love to see Bambi characters. It's a shame that even with the dvd release the characters aren't represented.

Sadly, Bambi isn't a character. He should be though. On the brighter side, Thumper is a character. But he is Rare, Rare, and Rare!!!!!

the majority of all the Quadraped characters are not costume characters. Some exceptions ot this rule are Max the dog (who actulay does meet and greets with Eric in Tokyo on all fours) . Pluto, Dodger and Eeyore. This is why Simba can only be seen in puppet form, while timon and rafiki are walk arounds.

I would just like to point out that the four character floats in FOTLK are puppets, not animatronics. Somebody actualy has to sit in those things the entire show and contiuosly make them look alive.
