Bongo and LuLu Belle

[drew81]

Does anyone else think Bongo and Lulu Belle should've been included in the circus area?


What are your thoughts?

Awww Bongo! That would have fit perfectly yes.

Bongo has more to do with a circus theme than Humphrey Bear, and you probably don't want too many bears since it is a circus area, after all.

Why Humphrey was chosen I don't know for sure, but I like Humphrey better than Bongo so you won't hear me complain.

 

[wiigirl]

I love Bongo.

Bongo and LuLu Belle used to make appearances at Magic Kingdom.

Though most guests wouldn't have any clue who they are I wish they would come back.

I do, but that's because I know who they are and get the connetion.

If they can't even get Gus and Jaq or Bernard and Bianaca in the parks, there's no hope for anyone else not in a "Diamond" edition title or brand supporter (Fairies, Princess etc.).

If only...

They have Dumbo and he hasnt shown up as a rumor of any kind and Dumbo has been open for six months

I'm not hinting at anything. I would like to see them, but I don't think they even exist anymore.

What about Deloris?

The elephant?

The elephant?

Wow! Didn't think anyone would remember that! And I guess it's Dolores.. That was one of my youngest' favs when she was tiny!!

What about Elmer Elephant??


/obscure?

 

[ellie-badge]

It would've been cool, but I can kinda see why they stuck with Humphrey. More recognizable from what I've seen, plus he's got a better connection to food and snacks than Bongo and Lulu Belle.

YES! Bongo would have been a much better fit! What's Humphrey got to do with circuses anyway? (Plus Bongo is cuter).

Overall, I love that storybook Circus is tapping into older resources that had virtually no presence in any of the parks

 

[elchippo]

I love looking through and seeing pics of Humphrey, Lambert, and references to melody Time and Toot Whistle Plunk Boom....

What about Dolores?**edit**

Seinfeld's Girlfriend?

I actually just watched Fun and Fancy Free this weekend. I'm all for old or retro things in the parks, but Bongo may be too obscure! I figure 0.01% of guests would have a clue who he was.

 

[MKCP 1985]

People would guess he was Duffy. *hurl

LoL

Duffy was doing meet and greets on the paddle wheel boat in Liberty Square Friday night during the Halloween Party.

Speaking of the Circus area, Pete's Silly Sideshow was open Friday night and Daisy, Minnie, Donald and Goofy were doing appearances. There was no wait because nobody much was going back that deep into the area and nobody much knew they were there. I found them and we had a great time getting silly photos - and I never thought once about Bongo. LoL
