4.  Goofy and Pluto

One of the highlights of the Christmas season is meeting Santa Goofy!  Guests wait in line for up to 45 minutes to meet him with Pluto in his Christmas collar.  I arrived 10 minutes before their first meet of the day according to Character Locator and kept my wait to a minimum.  The usual photo is both characters together, but Goofy was running a couple minutes late, so I was able to get a nice shot of Pluto before Goofy arrived.  Santa Goofy will also take over for Santa Claus in Hollywood Studios and Disney Springs from Christmas Day through New Year’s Eve.

Hi! I know this is early to be asking, but, do you know if it is anticipated for these characters to be in these Christmas outfits during the 2018 Christmas season? Thanks so much in advance.
