Duffy gets a bad rap because he was "created" to sell products. Well, so was every other cartoon character ever made.
We have some of our best Disney memories involving Duffy so this gives me a big case of the sads. I don't see how they can't find a spot for him somewhere. He's also a great character meet in general. He always interacted really well, you never felt rushed, the pictures came out great from there.
That is such a nice spot of the park, I wonder what they will do with it.
