I was really excited to get a photo with him, since I had just earned my Dumbo medal for the 10K/Half Marathon combo race (new at DL this coming Labor Day), and I knew that nobody else would get a picture with him, since he was on the monorail. Go figure. : /

Originally Posted By leemac <<I'd kill for a meet & greet with Dumbo, but he's only in the Electrical parade.>> He was supposed to have a M&G as part of the repositioning of the Dumbo attraction. Ops decided it was too expensive to keep a character on-stage all day. Sad as I think kids would have got a real kick out of seeing him as it is such an odd suit. I must admit I've always had an issue with four-legged characters being walk-arounds - and Dumbo falls into that category. However if that rule applied then I'd never see my favorite - Pluto!
