She is reporting that Wattos Grotto is an hour while the X-Wing collectible part is 2 hours. These are NOT the waits you're looking for!

Not at all. **sad trombone**

I thought we had earlier information that Luke & Leia weren't coming out until afternoon for the scheduled M&Gs. But this looks like he's a roaming character in the morning? Could that really be true?

 

[Monykalyn]

I want to be there right now! Loving the updates- thanks to all who are posting! 3 more weeks

That's the info given by an Attendant to Yulilin.

Scheduling-wise, Luke and Leia are ready to go for the motorcade. They aren't going to be allowed to hang around backstage until 4:00. So, that's why they are onstage roaming around.

Jedi Mickey and Pals end their set at 4:00 because H&V Jedi dinner begins at that time.

All this craze about starwars is good and all, but the Indiana stunt show is legit.

I will be able to get an extra boba poster if anyone wants to trade. Have to see which other ds wants. I would guess chewie or Yoda (he's not a with fan...lol)

 

[BobaFettFan]

Where. Are. The. Boba. Mugs? ???

 

[lchuck]

So are the posters strictly for AP/DVC holders or are they something the rest of us can purchase/obtain?

 

[Itinkso]

They should be in the concession area of Darth's Mall ~ Tuscan Fridge Raiders.

AP and DVC only - Guest Recovery because they got shut out of FPs for the SWW shows.

Yulilin's still in line for Vader. View from line:

THAT IS SO AWESOME! I was scared that we'd never have a chance to meet them with them only being out for 3 1/2 hours.

THIS IS GOING TO BE SO MUCH FUN!

Omg omg omg. Looks like they might be getting ready for the parade. Hope he is available for meets! Chooooooooopppppperrrrrrrrrr!

I'm flopping in the Art of Animation building after the parade to Cool off. I scored free cups of ice water at the Joffreys coffee booth opposite Toy story Mania. There is lots of Air Conditioning and acres of Carpet to collapse on and cool off. After I finish my drinks I'll probably go to Man's Dream and Collapse again...
