They give you a coupon for the free photo which you take it to the photo area by Spaceship Earth later in the day. Once its your group's turn you go behind a curtained area and there's a nice backdrop and a number of characters. Both times I did it now Mickey has been there for sure. Between the other two times Minnie, Goofy, Donald and Pluto were there although I'd have to look at the pictures again to be 100% sure. The 2nd time we did it was after the Year Of A Million Dreams started and all the characters in there were wearing the blue and silver YOAMD outfits which I think made for an especially neat picture. Both times I did it there was almost no line. One time with my Mom we almost did it but that time there was a very long line so we skipped it. I say go for it! Just to get an easy neat picture with Mickey alone is worth it but add to that the fact that you get some of the other more "famous" characters its really a neat experience!
