Where are the non disney characters?

Are through out all the parks? I see pics of Darth Vader and Kermit etc. etc. Would it be easier to have a 2nd autograph book for them?

AFAIK, the only times you can see the Star Wars Characters are in June for Star Wars weekends. I'm not sure there's any muppet characters out and about anytime. If someone knows for sure, they'll let you know though.

O.K. not sure what AF AIK means. That's to bad about Darth Vader. I saw someone's autograph book with Kermit's autograph, could that have been from somewhere else? I was sure it was mixed in with the Disney Characters???

Miss Piggy and Kermit used to be out for pictures, but I don't remember if they signed anything, and I haven't seen them in years Here's a pic of me with them, but this was either 2003 or 2004

AFAIK = As far as I know...

I've not seen any of the muppets characters out for meet-n-greet. You might run into some of the star wars characters (Darth / Storm Troopers / etc.) over by the Star Tours ride but I thought that was only during Star Wars Weekends...

DD got autographs from Kermit & Miss Piggy in 2005 -- in the Studios, by the Muppet theater. They didn't actually sign, they had stamps.

I would't do a separate autograph book. There aren't enough "non Disney" characters to justify it. Besides, if they're at WDW they're welcome in my book!

There are Mighty Morphin Power Rangers at DHS. There is a thread here where I asked that very questions and got a great answer, I'll post, if I can find it.

Might have a chance at DHS (formerly MGM). Also, for several Disney/Pizxar co-owned characters, like those from Toy Story, go to DHS.

I think the Muppets haven't been out for quite a while.

The Power Rangers are out daily at the Disney Studios over near the Lights Motor Action stunt show. (Check a times guide or ask a Cast Member when they're expected to be out.)

Darth Vader and a couple of storm troopers are often out near the Star Tours ride. We saw them there in June and not during a Star Wars Weekend.

By the way (or should that be BTW ), you can see a list of frequently used shorthand/acronyms here:
PassPorter Community - Message Boards and Forums - FAQ: Reading and Posting Messages

Hope you find the characters you're looking for!

The Power Rangers are at DHS. The are are the Streets of America (Backlot). They have 4 of them out at a time which makes for much shorter lines. My son loves it.

Well I think that is a cartoon from the Disney channel. I just thought there were a lot more for some reason.

We got Kermit and Miss Piggy to "sign" our books in 2004 (they had stamps), but we didn't see them last year. Hoping to see the Power Rangers this year. All 3 of my kiddies loove them!
