Fun Character Secrets!

[GoofyGuy]

Are these three DeVine, Wes Palm and Push always around the same area.
We are going soon and I was wondering if this is something I could go look for and find easily, or it it just a timing thing, and some people see them and some don't.?? If so what are the best places to be to meet up with them?
Thanks

When I went to DisneyWorld recently, I noticed some non-cartoon "characters" around the park. In Tommorowland, there was a talking trashcan that tried to make it's way up the escalator/ramp. It was very funny and cute. Also, in Animal Kingdom there was a talking palm tree that was very cute. There is also a vine lady that we saw inside the AK. She was really cool.

Have you seen any of these? What were your experiences with them? Are there any more fun characters like this around the parks? Where are the people that control them stationed?

I love PUSH. He is so funny, and so much fun to watch. I have also seen Wes Palm, and Pipa too.

How about the talking fountains at Epcot? I looked for them last week but couldn't remember exactly where they were. Are those still around?

I believe the water fountains at Epcot are gone.

T.Rex and Roxie walk around Dinoland in AK a lot. They're Chester and Hester's kids in costume to perform for you! Roxie is green and loves being a dancing diva, so if you see her and her big red lips, strike a pose! T.Rex is Roxie's brother. He's blue and has dreams of being a rockstar someday. If you see him, don't be shy to air guitar and rock out with him! They are atmosphere characters, much like Push and Wes Palm.

If you are talking about the 2 dinosaurs, I have been told that they are retired.

What about Lucky the Dinosaur in AK that walks freely around with its handler? I at least think its name is Lucky.

Lucky is currently on vacation.

I've seent he trash can at conservation station in AK and DeVine. Never saw the others though

The trash can at RPW is Pipa.

Isn't there also a statue lady in Italy at Epcot? I have a friend with some photos of her. I'm sure she told me the name, but I don't remember.

They have been retired.

I heard that the camel that points out toward the sidewalk spits on people when they pass. Is this true? I knew about the one aimed at the ride but I hadn't witnessed an attack on an unsuspecting walker! Can anyone confirm or deny this???

Oh it most certainly is true.

I just visited Disney in June and it was very hot there during the time. But whenever we would watch a parade or show, I would notice that none of the dancers were sweating. I am a dancer myself and know how hot it is in the costumes. I just wondered if they had any special makeup they put on to make them look like their not sweating or something. Just a thought!

Um, not too sure about that.

Yes, they are generally in the same area. PUSH roams around Tomorrowland, Wes Palm is in front of AK by the Turnstiles/ticket windows, and Pipa is back by RPW.

Yes, as of September 30th, T.Rex and Roxie are no longer hamming it up at Dinoland.

Joanna, were they JUST retired? We were there at the end of August and my boys got their pics taken with them!

Ahahahaha, trust me. As a parade preformer, I can definitely tell you it is hotter than you can imagine on a June summer day out there. The makeup is very strong theatrical make-up that helps prevent running from the sweat, but yes. Everyone is extremely disgustingly sweaty after parade time.

Ahhh...I was searching for my pics when you posted this! Well I'm glad I got the boys pics with them then! That's a shame.

Yes, just retired.

[disneydreamer98]

Yes, just retired.

Yeah, thanks, I saw that from Tina's post. She must have been posting the retirement date at the same time I was searching for the photos to post!

I saw the talking trash can at Rafiki's Planet Watch over at AK. It had a cool voice and a name but I can't remember it.
