Epcot's Character Spot meet and greet location reopens from major refurbishment in June

[asianway]

As someone mentioned earlier the idea that the line has to move super fast is what is ruining M&Gs. You used to be able to meet Mickey, Minnie, Pluto, Donald, Goofy and Chip and Dale at this location. Now it's down to 3 characters for the sake of moving the line quicker.

I think people dont really understand that it is the high capacity greets that suck budget from entertainment and result in the removal of things like sidekicks at Epcot(Mushu, Caballeros), Diversified characters at AK(Jiminy, Flik, etc), any type of popup characters at MK. Halloween and Christmas parties are another great example, two princess rooms, each with 6 performers and Im assuming at least one extra shift to cover breaks so minimum of 18 performers worth of the entertainment budget is gone just at one location. You end up with the same old same old year after year because they need to cover those static locations.

The lighting in these rooms needs to be fixed.

It's poorly done.

Do we have pictures of the completed area? I have yet to see anything at any online site.

No wait time at all for Character Spot, which is nice. But, meeting only Mickey, Minnie, and Pluto is sad.
