Same with me Fawn is the one I want to meet the most. I had read a little bit about her and she seems like she is a fun one. I read that she is a little Tomboy she loves animals plays jokes on the others. I think she will be a grate Pixie to have. Funny thing I had a doll of her on my table in my room.

I want to meet Fawn the most, really. She's one of the cutest, and seems to be the most fun, imo.

Our kids love the juice boxes so I know the 10pack juice boxes carry the label, not sure about other products. Also sorry I can't remember which movies it was in relation to (4 or 5 movies, but again you can only chose 1). The only reason I noticed is because the Tinkerbell DVD is one of the options.

The "higher quality" ones were at the 99cent store, but I have seen versions at stores ranging from Dollar Tree to Big Lots. It's essentially the same thing, colored nylon stretched over a wire frame. I know the 99cent Store ones were advertised and people litereally raided the stores looking for them, they also came with a wand. Anyhow sorry for the derail.

I will be there, I'm actually kind of excited. I'll probably see the movie once I get home from my trip but yeah, should be there opening day

[Luke Manning]

The soft openings begin tomorrow. I'll be there on Sunday.

[mrfantasmic]

You'll probably have to wait just a little longer.

do we have confirmation on this? We'll be in the park on Sat, and if this is true then we will go early specifically for this (which will make for a full day because of the Tink preview). Not to doubt you but where did you hear it was opening tomorrow?

[Capt Hook's]

Yeah I haven't hear anything on a early open for Pixie Hollow. I've hear Oct. 28th. Now I did hear from another web place the one in WDW opens tomorrow but not hear.

Tinker Bell moves into new Disneyland home, giving Ariel the boot

How do you sit down for a photo with Tinker Bell without actually sitting on the palm-size pixie? We’ll soon find out when Peter Pan’s fairy friend gets her own meet-and-greet area at Disneyland.

Pixie Hollow, which takes the place of Ariel’s Grotto near the Matterhorn Bobsleds, is expected to soft open on Friday, Oct. 24, 2008 in advance of an official opening next week.

Visitors walking past an “enchanted” pond will feel as though they are shrinking to the size of a fairy through a series of visual and audio cues. Bronze statues of the five Disney fairies — Iradessa, Rosetta, Fawn, Silvermist and, of course, Tinker Bell — line the pathway. Along the way, whispers and echoes emanate from the fantasy fairy world. Tinker Bell, played by a 5-foot-tall face character, poses for photos in front of her home, an upside-down tea pot.

Most folks won’t think twice about posing for a picture next to a pixie that can fit through a keyhole. After all, Disneyland is a place where dogs walk on their hind legs, pants-less ducks swear like sailors and squeaky-voiced mice run the place.

Life-size Tinks already appear in Disneyland’s Parade of Dreams and high above Sleeping Beauty Castle in the nighttime fireworks show.

The evicted Little Mermaid will be shedding her tailfin and donning a dress over in the Princess Fantasy Faire at the Fantasyland Theater.

Well, there's gonna be more than one.

[Capt Hook's]

I know that Luke and if you saw I put IF in red letters. She may be for Disneyland or maybe for WDW or just for that picture. So that's why I said IF
