A couple of character changes will take place early fall at Disney's Animal Kingdom.

Timon is back - finally!
Whoever is behind this change really needs a steak dinner. On the other hand Tarzan will sadly be missed.

It will be nice to have Timon back. Wonder if Tarzan will ever make a return?

Wonder if it's a 'we need him for Halloween parties and schedules don't jive well for that.' The dates would line up for that as like everyday in October is a party.

Or end of the fiscal year and easier to have a costume character than a face character.

I like them bringing back Timon. Tarzan's come and gone before. I can see Timon being a bigger draw.

I can see Timon being a bigger draw.

Especially since now that The Lion Guard is on TV!

Especially since now that The Lion Guard is on TV!

And with the new Lion King coming...

 

[IanDLBZF]

And with the new Lion King coming...

That too. And it's nice that they're bringing out a rare character for a change.

I saw Lilo and Stich in the picture and got excited thinking it was them

 

[Bocabear]

I wish they would "Shuffle" the characters right out of the park....lol

 

[Christian Fronckowiak]

I know there was a time in Epcot's history that excluded the walk around characters. Was there ever a time like this with Disney's Animal Kingdom?

 

[njDizFan]

I'd much rather have a face character over a foamhead.

 

[Princess Leia]

Yeah.... I'll take Tarzan over Timon...

Characters are popular whether we like it or not. They have their place.

He's known for hating meet and greets.

Normally I'd agree, but I can't get past the dreadlocks... and the shaving. Did the Great Apes have hair salons and barber shops?

Well it's how he appears in the movie...

 

[wdrive]

In the orginal book it states Tarzan does in fact shaved, he orginally thought he was turning into a gorilla, i dont know about the hair though.

In the original book Cinderella's stepsisters got their feet hacked off and eyes pecked out by birds. There's a million other differences Disney has made to most of their original stories. The characters we get in the parks are the Disney versions and not the literature characters.

Yes, perhaps those who dislike the meet and greets would rather have everyone in line in front of them for something else?

I wish they would take Doc McStuffins out of Planet Watch and place Timon there.
