Does anyone have feedback or suggestions on the M&G for Elvis Stitch?

Does anyone remember when the characters in the parade used to give out candy? Did they stop doing this? We had an awesome spot one year in Frontierland and Goofy handed my kids these awesome clear red Mickey lollipops or something like that and the kids went crazy over them. We never saw that happen again but other characters after them also came out and CMs had buckets of candy which they were tossing to the crowd. I thought it was a really cool treat.

FWIW, last year the dancers/pre-parade party thing that comes by were handing out candy. We were in Town Square so had a really long wait for the parade. Sounds corny but the lollipop was the perfect distraction for DD3 who was starting to get a little antsy.

But there was precious little info from Disney about timing or design.

I think the design for the refillable mugs was the one shown in their blog entry with Chip and Dale as bats. Sounded like it would be the same design as the basic popcorn bucket. I really hope they're released by the time I arrive!

Are all Halloween party only foods available through mobile ordering?

 

[emmabelle]

well I've painted our magic bands, hopefully it's obvious who we will be going as. Just need to square up and buy the tickets!

Is there a wait for a Prince Eric and Ariel? No one really talks about them so I’m assuming not!

Looks amazing! Awesome job!

I want to know too! Going dressed as Ariel so would really like a photo with them both

In the Touring plans video posted a few pages ago, they predicted the 30th to be less crowded because most people will wait to go on the 31st for the party. They had the 28th as one of the busier ones

Thanks, I was leaning that way. Keeping arrival day low key is probably best anyways!

I thought that there was one trick or treat location that has Werther’s candy. Does anyone know if there is one? These are our favorites.

See my post # 6474 regarding the trick or treat stops I hit, and the ones I missed. I did not receive any Werther's candy.

The party is sponsored by the Mars company. "Werther's Original (from the original German: Werthers Echte) is a brand of caramel flavoured candy owned by the German company August Storck KG, based in Berlin, Germany." So even though Werther's is an Epcot sponsor, I would not expect to see their candy at MNSSHP. But if someone did get any Werther's candy, I am sure they will post to prove me wrong.

Must one trick-or-treat with the provided bag? (and dump into another)

No. I used my own tote bag. I didn't even ask for one of their bags until near the end of the night when I decided that I would give some of my candy to a local friend, and I needed a bag to put it in.

Does anyone know what time Elivis Stitch starts meeting and how long his line is?

I expected his line to be longer. I walked by early in the evening and it did not even stretch to outside the building. (He meets in the building where the Stitch attraction used to be.)

It's not like meeting Jack & Sally. As I mentioned elsewhere, I walked by early during the party and the line did not even extend out the door. My back was bothering me, so I decided it would be a shorter wait if I did it during the first parade. Unfortunately, that's when he decided to go on break so I had to wait longer than I wanted.

I think people on this thread are xcited about it, but I don't think the general public necessarily knew that (a) he would be there, or (b) he would be dressed as Elvis. If you don't do your research ahead of time, the map doesn't even tell you which characters will be at the party, let alone what they will be wearing.

Read on Disney food blog that starting Oct 1st Zero waffle sundae will be available all day. Hope that’s true because we go in Oct!
Thinking we’ll stop by Sleepy Hollow about 5pm for chicken waffle sandwich and the sundae and not waste party time there.

Can I check something. When entering at 4ish, people seem to be going a back route to pick up their candy bag. Where does this route bring you out? I have a FP for 4.55 and was hoping to pick up some merchandise such as the Sorcerers card before heading over there so was wondering if you had to double back on Main Street? TIA

I think it was the same this year. I left just before the second parade. Some dancers were just coming out onto Main Street and I heard them yelling to ask who wanted candy.

I entered at about 6:15 and they didn't care where you went. We were not herded into a particular direction. I went straight to the fire station. I saw the candy bags at trick or treat locations, so you don't have to get one as soon as you enter. Note that this is different from the 2016 Disneyland party I attended, where you had to pick up your bag when you got your wristband.

Actually, I recommend bringing your own bag (tote bag or the re-usable grocery bags they sell at the grocery store, with a large zip-loc bag inside). The bags they give out are tiny. You would fill it with just a few candy stops, and then your candy would start overflowing and falling out.

Not sure what happens if you enter early, but even if they herd you in a particular direction, you don't have to double back to get a candy bag.

It brings you next to the Plaza restaurant - in between that and the bathrooms next to tomorrowland terrace. I'd try to get the card before you travel down that route and I believe I saw merchandise throughout that back route.

Hey Mike who I forgot to quote -

I promised one of my friends that he could have my Sorcerer's card. As people may know, you can only get one and they mark your wristband to make sure you can't get another.

But maybe someone else can get one for you if you send them a self addressed stamped envelope.

Werthers has a prominate spot as a candy stop at the party - dh and I mentioned we love werthers and they filled both of our bags to the top with werthers - favorite stop of the night
