As PP mentioned, the Haunted Mansion characters meet on weekend evenings where Jack & Sally meet during the day, which is in NOS in the nook between the two gift shops Pieces of Eight and Port Royal Curios (it’s where Red (the old Red) the Fortune Teller Pirate is). But they only meet Friday to...

Jack and Sally meet at their usual spot from 9:00 until around 3:00. I think they’re there daily but I haven’t checked since Sunday. The Haunted Mansion characters are at Jack & Sally’s spot starting at 5:00/5:30ish. But CMs said they’re only there Fri-Mon. I haven’t checked since the weekend so...

In addition there’s also the Groundskeeper, the Harp Player, and a chrome variant three pack of Gus/Ezra/Phineas. The Groundskeeper is a Box Lunch exclusive, the Harp Player is a Hot Topic exclusive, and the chrome Hitchhiking Ghosts are a Target exclusive. The previously four mentioned...

I’m sorry his experience fell flat at Oga’s. It truly is a great place (luckyrabbit’s assessment above is similar to my experience there), but I’m not surprised by the comment about the CMs (some can be “rude” but many are friendly). But the vibe isn’t for everyone. The big question though is...

It gives some time to let things settle. Were lower crowds after week one due to overhype and guests staying away because of the overhype? Was it due in most part to the Deluxe AP blockout? Will guests return now knowing the parks aren’t overcrowded? Week two is a difficult week to measure the...

Subjective, yes. But by that definition Toy Story 4 tanked at the US box office in its opening weekend because it earned $20M below Disney’s official projection despite having one of the biggest domestic openings in history for an animated film. We were at DLR four days last week and opening is...

I don't disagree with your post, but I think 'tanked' is a bit of an exaggeration. M-Th last week was extremely light. Friday-Sunday the parks were busy. But yes, as a whole, attendance is most definitely well below Disney's projections and below average attendance values for this time of year...

Can confirm. After checking in on Friday we paid with gift cards and the CM said our credit card was only to reserve a spot and will not be charged (it hasn’t been), unless we failed to show up. Once you check in you can pay by whatever method you prefer (gift cards, cash, another credit card, etc.)

I think that’s an excellent strategy. The ability to make reservations for Oga’s and Savi’s (if you’re so inclined) right at 7am for whatever time you want later in the day is wonderful. Based on the patterns this past week there’s no reason to rush to MFSR or SWGE at all in the morning, and...

I beg to differ. We were here Wednesday and it was very light and enjoyable (ridiculously so). But was also here all day Friday, yesterday, and still here today and it feels like a normal busy Sunday from a crowd level standpoint. An hour ago Space, Splash, MFSR and Matterhorn were all...

We’re in the parks almost every Saturday and it was very crowded yesterday, what I would call a typical Saturday feel in both parks. I’m not sure what today will bring but the lines to get in this morning were longer than they were on either the past two days, but the vast majority went to DL...

This. The reservation system for Oga’s is fantastic. We only went there once during the May reservation period but we’ve been able to enjoy Oga’s three times this week. It’s already hot and pretty crowded in both parks this morning, and having the ability to reserve an evening slot for Oga’s...

Just saw it in Off the Page in DCA as well just a few minutes ago. It’s on a display next to the cash register with the watches

Got to the parks for opening this morning and was here earlier this week and today “feels” considerably more crowded both in terms of general crowd levels walking around and some wait times, almost like a typical Friday whereas Wednesday was one of the lightest (best) days I’ve experienced in a...

I’m also a huge old timer OT fanatic and I loved everything about SWGE. I had no prior expectations that the land would be themed for my personal taste and I enjoyed what it offered for both myself and the entire family. That’s the beauty about DLR, if there’s something that doesn’t exactly meet...

Yes, the two lateral vent quillon “mini blades” come with the purchase of the hilt. There are a couple of YouTube video reviews out there and one shows the unboxing.

We were there on Monday and Tuesday and the backpacks were not back in stock. But you never know. They were out of the gift cards for awhile and today a Facebook group posted that the cards were back in stock this afternoon. They were also out of the R2-D2 bowls for a bit but those were back on...

Great map! For the 8AM entry, do they let guests who want to do Savi’s first go from the “pink” path to the “red” path to the “yellow” in order to get to Savi’s, or do guests have to go from “pink” to “orange” and go the long way around to get there? Stories from this past Sunday’s 8am...

Upon entering the land, do you recall if the CMs allowed folks to immediately go left (for Savi’s), or did they require the entire crowd to walk through the right hand side and filter into the First Order section?

The Pots of Gold & Rainbows is wonderful. It’s cereal milk in ice cream form and is nostalgia for me with the little bits of Lucky Charms mixed in. DTD is currently the only shop that sells scoops of this flavor (it used to be a constant classic flavor at other locations in the past) and is...
