Random Character Appearances at Magic Kingdom - Speculation
DisneyDan  Thursday, January 17, 2019 7:06:43 AM
Hello everyone,

From tomorrow the Walt Disney World Resort begins their Mickey 90th Birthday celebrations, which means that there are some character changes around the resort, particularly at the Magic Kingdom. Since the official WDW website states there'll be "surprise character visits", a lot of sites have already reported that there will be a sort of "random-rotating" schedule of characters that will replace Chip, Dale and Pluto at the flagpole in Town Square, since Pluto is moving to the Silly Sideshow, and Chip and Dale will be in the new street party.

I have my own speculation as to what we can expect to see at these new character appearances, and thought it would be fun to share with you all here.

I'll start by stating quite clearly that this is
purely my speculation. Some of you may already know otherwise, some of you may agree, some may not. It's just for fun, but based on factors I consider pertinent to the situation. I think that we'll see a lot of characters that have shown up recently at the DVC Moonlight Magic events, and runDisney races at WDW. We have to be realistic and assume that there will be characters that can be offered for continuous sets, at least for a whole day or more, which means we will not be seeing anyone crazy. DVC is a good bar because those events run for around three to four hours over several nights and the characters tend to be more unusual, making it entirely possible that they are effectively using the same sort of logic and setup for this.

Let's take a look at some of my photos from recent DVC Moonlight Magic events and runDisney races to see who might show up.
