Hi All,

Just a quick note from the world. I was at DHS yesterday - at Animation at 4:45 and nothing was happening. So I checked with a cast member and he said that they moved Character Palooza to Streets of America. I missed it by 5 mins as we high tailed it over there and saw the characters leaving!!! :( Next time! :)

Ok - more later but wanted to toss that out there in case anyone was planning on trying to catch it!

It's not a sure thing. Should def happen on nights when F! doesn't have an early show, may or may not happen on other days. I think the first set is 4:45 or so, you may have just the 1 set, you may have 2 sets, or you may have 2 sets come out twice. (A,B,A,B) You really just need to show up and see who appears. Sets are normally 12-20 mins.

The second set should have come out almost right after. Normally they are good about the switch off.

Very surprised they moved that outdoors. And all the way over there as well.

It kinda stinks that they moved this for two reasons:
  1. It was kind of nice that it was inside the animation building because it meant less people knew about it and therefore the crowds were smaller. Moving it out to the streets had to increase the amount of people trying to get autographs etc. quite a lot!
  2. It was at least something that the sad empty animation building had going for it. LOL!!

I don't know about two sets v. one set. But when I spoke to the Cast Member, he verified that it was at 4:45 pm and now on Streets of America. It was funny, he actually looked around to see if anyone else was listening like it was some big secret and we were talking all whispery and stuff. It was funny! It took us about 10 to 15 mins to get to SOA and it was over by them. I would recommend being in the vicinity by 4:30.
