I'm also excited they are going to have esmerelda because I have always wanted to see her (I had the backpack and everything when I was little).
Originally Posted By DBitz2 I was hoping to see the Three Little Pigs & Big Bad Wolf, the Country Bear characters, a reunion of the trio of Brer Rabbit, Brer Bear and Brer Fox (the latter two have been out in the Park more recently, but, not Brer Rabbit), the Three Caballeros (who we hopefully will be seeing in the new parade) and Maleficent. A lot of the characters they had on the voting lists I didn't consider as being that rarely seen, as some of them had been out here and there in more recent years. It would be great for this "old timer" to see some of the really absent ones.
Originally Posted By calgrl2490 I agree. Besides Esmerelda the other characters aren't that rare. (And I only think esmerelda is rare because I didn't visit DL when she was there. Disney really had a chance to make a great event but it leaves much to be desired.

Originally Posted By calgrl2490 I don't know but the one I saw when I was little and I think still have on a home video somewhere was a stage show. It had this giant vault on one side that darkwing used to bust through in his car. I'll have to find that video!

Originally Posted By cerise667 We watched characters with the guests last weekend... it was great, esp the raccoon... but, I had to admit I did not know who that character was and from which entertainment... the little raccoon was just wonderful with the guests, the kids were just in love with the character and the cm was amazing, nearby Dee and Dum had a great show going and a fox in a hat (also who?) doing the same... it was fun to watch.
Originally Posted By amazedncal2 >>fox in a hat<<< That was likely Brer Fox, he is in Critter Country every once in awhile. The raccoon could have been from Pocahontas, I don't remember his name.
Originally Posted By Dabob2 Brer Fox mostly shows up in Critter Country. If this was FaL, and the fox had a top hat, that was J. Worthington Foulfellow, the fox from Pinocchio.
Originally Posted By friarthe Witches, were there ever characters for Black Cauldron or Great Mouse Detective? The latter is my cult fave, but even when the movies were new I don't remember anything more than movie posters at the entrance.
Originally Posted By Witches of Morva ORWEN: Yes, friarthe, duckling. Back in 1985 Gurgi was out for a while during our movie premier. ORGOCH: Rumer has it all of us was out fer a while in 1985.

She refused to clean up the horse do-do on Main Street and went balistic against this poor old man and, well, we've told this story before. ORDDU: Indeed we have. The main point is, nobody seems to care about seeing any of the Black Cauldron characters any longer. Gurgi was the one guests got to see the most. There was a newspaper photo of Bette Midler posing with Gurgi when our movie first came out in 1985.
