Help with Tinkerbell

[Grumpy_Disney_Dad]

Has ANYONE seen Tink signing autographs at WDW? I had heard that they were going to make Tink an official princess and have her out in the parks. Has anyone else seen or heard anything about this? We are WDW bound at the end of June and my DD 8 is just crazy for Tink. Any help would be apprecaitted

Tink is out at DL but I haven't heard anything about them doing it at WDW.

Oh! I hope it's true! I would love to see Tink!!

My dd is a HUGE Tink fan too and we were told in 2003 that Tink doesn't walk around/make appearances because she is a fairy and so tiny. DD bought it (ate age 3), but really she associates Tink as a princess thanks to all the toys/dolls she has.

I don't like that Tink and Ariel aren't in on the princess meals, etc. Didn't Disney watch the end of their own movie... Ariel has legs!!!

Are there any pictures of her at a meet and greet? I saw her on top of a float in the Christmas parade in DL on tv, but does anyone have any pictures of her actually in the parks? I'd love to see....

My DD is Tink crazy too! She would love to meet Tink!

Hey, WTH happened to my countdown clock??

There's a thread from the webmaster about there being some HTML issues with some signatures, hence no clock.

As for Tink, I never saw her at DL, except that she figures prominently in the fireworks show at night. I won't say much else in case people are curious. Just hink about any video you've seen of the Castle and Tink...

Nevermind. Found the link myself. Thanks, dbanzai.

Yeah, Unfortunately Tink doesn't do Meet & Greets. Tink is to small, and a bit stubborn.

I've heard rumors that the old 20,000 League area is going to be a meet & greet area for Tinkerbell. The concept is that as you walk through buildings you are being shrunk to pixie size so when you reach Tink she doesn't seem so small anymore.

Like I said only a rumor I have heard and nothing to really back this up.

Tink can't sign autographs.. she's too little to hold the pen up properly!!

YOu are reading my mind about Ariel.....I am still a kid at heart of course and The Little Mermaid is my alltime favorite Disney movie (came out when I was about 8, so it just hit me at the perfect time) and I LOVE Ariel. I noticed that they always feature her at DW with her tail on! I even have commented to DF..."Why does Ariel have a tail again????? She left the ocean and married her prince!!"

We would love to see Tink.

Here are a few pics I found of Tinkerbell. I think they are from Disneyland Paris.

I too would love to see Tink signing autographs and taking pics!

 

[TrickyFish]

Oh how adorable is she?! Wow, I wish there was a Tink at WDW!!

I hope they put Tink at Disney World too, that would be so cool!

And if Disney thinks about it there are other characters that are very tiny like Tink and they still have them walking around the parks, for example Jimmy Cricket.
