He was in Tokyo first if I remember correctly. Then they added the Cali version.

What are you joking Matt? Id say a huge percentage of CMs character staff are either full blown furries or secretly furries.
I've know a few friends who work as CMs. And most of them kinda are what you would describe as "furries".
And since Zootopia for them feels like the "next robin hood" for them. No surprise on what you say.
And yes.. I follow a few zootopia blogs on tumblr and Had the displeasure of seeing the BAD kind of stuff already x_x

I would say it is.. How long since Disney did an anthropomorphic movie?
A lot of furries feels like this movie is the "spiritual successor" of Robin Hood.

I dont think UP was that famous, reminds me on the low popularity of Brave compared to Tangled and Frozen.

2005. Admittedly, yes, Chicken Little had some problems, BUT the character was very useful in Kingdom Hearts 2.

He was in Tokyo first-they paid for all the development to bring him to life. DCA & WDW piggybacked.
The big difference here is that Tokyo rarely piggybacks on new characters the US or Paris parks pay to develop.

Funny thing is, Oswald appears only for marathons at WDW.

He appeared for the Full in January for the first time. I don't recall hearing about him appearing any other time at any other races.

Special events. There is no such thing as a "marathon character". He has been at many

I don't know why OLC is so reluctant to bring new characters to TDR. Nick and Judy are showing up (potentially as parade-only) for this year's Easter event. No chance of a Moana appearance in the foreseeable future. Frozen characters are parade-only. Tiana has never appeared at the resort in any format. Inside Out never showed up in any capacity.

The four hour line when Minnie wears her berry dress one week a year Will answer that question

Neither has Elena of Avalor unfortunately. It seems as if recently TDR (OLC for that matter) has been very reluctant on doing new character meet and greets, for the most part. Sad isn't it.

Elena is a face character. The Asian parks can't just add face characters without serious planning. They need to cast western performers and bring them over on long-term contracts, so adding new princesses takes more planning and budget than it does for DLR/WDW. Also, Elena is from a TV show. Highly unlikely there would be any interest at TDR.

Depends on the show. Look at how many characters from the Stitch animated series they brought over, many of whom Western park goers have never heard of.
