thor meet and greet

[fluffycow333]

I'm a HUGE Thor fan and I am looking forward to meeting him in Disneyland. The only problem is that I'm paranoid that he's not going to still be there in August. Does anyone know how long his meet and greet is going to last?

Thank you

With the Avengers Half Marathon happening in November, I would expect to still be around at least through then.

With everything they've poured into that exhibit, plus with how cool it actually is, plus no real Avenger movie to bump him out... I'd say you're in luck.

It's at Innoventions, but they are not open all day, so check the schedule. They also have the Captain America meet and greet, plus the Iron Man hall of armor. The Marvel characters and Carsland are the only reasons DS6 wants to go to DLR. Otherwise, he'd be just as happy, if not happier, at Legoland. Go figure.

Angrose - thanks! That will all make my dd happy!

Thor always seems to pick a child (usually a boy) to try to lift the hammer, but if there are no children in your group, you might be lucky! I say go for it!!!

P.S. I'm going on my past experiences with this meet & greet.

I wish Loki was there!

That would be cool! Have Thor and Loki bicker at each other and Thor "banishes" Loki to another world (room) where he has his own meet and greet!

So is this more than just a character meeting? Is there a show too? My dh and I waited in line in April, but the line never moved after about 20 minutes, so we left. My ds really wants to meet Thor and Captain America, so we are planning on getting there right at 11:00 on our first day in DL.

I LOVE Loki! And Tom Hiddleston IS THE BEST. This is great: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NRSuK_kR5iM

For Captain America, you just wait in line and each person/group meets, talks and gets photos with him - no show.
For Thor, a group of people (about 10 - 15) is taken into a middle room that has some "Treasures of Asgard" displays. This group then goes in to meet Thor. He talks for awhile and chooses the child to try and lift the Hammer, then each person/group gets to meet, talk and get pictures with Thor - so a little "show" but there is no full blown show.

Both of these meet and greets are totally worth the wait!

Do you think the Thor meet and greet is worth going too first or it doesn't matter what time you go?

When we were there the week aster Fathers' Day, the M&G didn't open until 11. So unless you really get there late, I'd say hit some other stuff first

 

[superlarz]

I imagine it is going to be there for a while.. until they have a more permanant area to move it or they have other plans for innovations. So at least through next summer.

I would definitely do Thor first. Line up outside of Innovations about 15 minutes before it opens. Upon entering the building, go straight past Ironman exhibit and line up for Thor meet and greet. It is on the left after rounding past Ironman exhibit. Then continue moving clockwise to Captain America and finally round back to check out Ironman suits.

Where is this in the park?

This is probably the best way to do it, given that with Thor, they take you in groups (like the Haunted Mansion queue), so it's very stop-and-go. With Captain America, it's a little more of a continual flow.

I would think they would keep Captain America and Thor at least through November and the Avengers half-marathon weekend.

Top level of Innoventions. Thor is to the left of the entrance and Captain America is to the right (but you have to circle all the way around to get into the Captain America queue).
