Could Stitch be leaving the Magic Kingdom?
A recent rumor I received is stating that Stitch may soon be removed from the Magic Kingdom. According to the rumor Stitch would leave Tomorrowland to make way for Rafiki to move into Adventureland. I’d rather see Captian Hook in Adventureland, since I can meet Rafiki in Animal Kingdom with no wait. The person providing the speculation stated that he could be leaving at the end of September, if the rumor is true. If he were to leave, his only regular meets would be ‘Ohana breakfast and Typhoon Lagoon during summer months.
If Stitch were to leave, what character would you like to see instead in Magic Kingdom?

Sadly this is true :( During My recent trip in January, I did meet Rafiki in the character spot at the front of Adventureland and Stitch was nowhere in sight in Tomorrowland. I think they should make him a walk-around character like the ones in Disneyland.

Yes, I removed him long ago on my schedules and www.characterlocator.com "Walk around" characters don't work in WDW because they get mobbed by guests. DL is a locals park, so it works differently

I just got back from my vacation and was told during my meet and greet with Jasmine and Aladdin that Stitch is leaving to make way for Rafiki. I was told that Jasmine's outfit will be changing in the near future as well. The cast member did not have any dates or time frames. It's unfortunate! Rafiki is better at Animal Kingdom.

No. Stitch has to stay in Tomorrowland to continue greeting the guests, and I've never gotten a chance to have a picture with him albeit my mom took a blurry video of me dancing with him.

I like the "rare character rotation" ideas. Kenny what was the "old teardrop?" On my daughters first trip in fall '07, we stumbled on a character palooza type event, back in a corner of Toontown...was that maybe it? Always wondered what that was. Your the best Kenny!

The location of the current Storybook Circus tents used to be a dead end path. They used that location for rare character appearances.

Interesting. When we first started taking my daughter to WDW in 2010 we joked that Stich must have had blackmail on someone because he was everywhere. I think he had a meet in each park.
I'd like to see him remain, since this is the only place he still meets. If he's gone, I'd rather it be someone new (any prince, Hook, Smee, Jane) rather than a repeat of Rafiki.
