    Default Is Lotso still at DHS?

    That was the one character we'd love to meet this trip, and I can't recall if he's still there or not. We'll be there at the end of the month.

    And just out of curiosity, are the UP characters still there? I'd heard they were leaving..

    Does anyone know?

    Thank you!
    Karen

    "It's snowing still," said Eeyore gloomily.
    "So it is."
    "And freezing."
    "Is it?"
    "Yes," said Eeyore. "However," he said, brightening up a little, "we haven't had an earthquake lately."

    Lotso was not in the animation building when we went in Nov/Dec 2011, it was Pooh instead. Lotso was there in Oct/Nov 2010 but they replaced him with Pooh.

    As mentioned above, the Lotso Meet & Greet was replaced by a Winnie the Pooh Meet & Greet. I believe you can still see Lotso in the daily parade at the Studios.

    A Bear Change

    3/22/11
    Studios Cast have reported a change-over for one of the Magic of Disney Animation Meet & Greet locations in Late Spring 2011. The Lotso Meet & Greet at Disney’s Hollywood Studios will cease operation April 20, 2011. The Meet & Greet location will then be closed for refurbishment May 1 – 15, 2011. The location will re-open May 16th, as a new Meet & Greet location for Winnie the Pooh.

    It has been reported that Russel and Dug have started new meet & greet at Animal Kingdom near Flame Tree BBQ.

    I was actually disappointed that we spent time to see Lotso instead of getting a pic with Sorcerer Mickey. My son wouldn't go near Lotso. He may be fuzzy and cute, but he was mean in TS3.
    My name is Gator. You killed my Sorcerer's Hat. Prepare to die.

    Oh that makes me sad! DH and I didn't take the time last trip to meet him, and I said this year we were waiting! Boo!

    Is Pooh still there and does anyone know how long until he is replaced? I am hoping for someone new by this summer since there are other places to meet Pooh.

    It's possible Pooh could be replaced by Brave, but nobody knows right now
