In terms of sheer height, I think Kevin at Animal Kingdom might take the cake; she's pretty much to scale of her movie counterpart, which is 13 feet tall!

I remember meeting Baymax a few years ago and I just could not take it seriously, I just couldn't stop thinking about the cast member inside and how much of a weird costume to wear it must be. I also fully felt like if I hugged him I'd just, see the person inside like some creepy baymax nightmare skeleton lol They should do a D+ show about the costumes inside, it would be fascinating to see!!

Another reminder that there is not a Panda Mei in the parks! She’s a big floofy girl, but this video proves they can make a costume work. She would be PERFECT to hug

I had no idea there ever even was a Goliath costume! That's amazing! Would love to see that come back for one of their many throwback 90s nights or whatever nostalgic ploy they're pulling this week.

Let’s be real honest, guys. Character meet n greets are one of the best and most entertaining things to do at Disney nowadays, and one of the reasons why I’m going next month.

I've been constantly pondering how big a Mei Lee costume would be at the Disney Parks...

Before the pandemic I worked in entertainment costuming at WDW and was trained to dress a few of the characters you mentioned. Brought back a lot of fond memories of the characters and my extremely tall coworkers ❤️

I got to meet Little John (w/ Robin Hood) at MK in 2019 and I remember feeling some sort of large, wooden brace inside the Little John costume when he went to give me a hug. Can't imagine how hard it is to manipulate such a giant costume. The same can be said with all the costumes listed!

The characters I would have put on the list include Mr. Incredible, Baloo, the Beast and Kevin.

The fact that we still don’t have Panda Mei in the parks is inexcusable.

Met Groot a few years ago, the costume is amazing! Probably the best character I've ever met.

If only Disney could do 4 legged character costumes. People want to meet characters like Simba!

Any plans for an evolution of Princess Jasmine in the parks?

Sweetums is DA MAN! You never really notice that he has that one limp arm because the puppeteer only has two hands, and one's in the face. Of course, a certain large yellow not Disney owned bird has a special wire to make his other arm a little more mobile.

We need a costume character of the OG Disney villain Pete from the earliest days of Disney that should be among the giant costumed character brethren! Someone who can play massive Disney characters can definitely fit inside a giant Pete costume!

I met a friend of Chewbacca once while I was working at WDW. Dude was HUGE. Little 5’1” me never felt so teeny tiny lol

The Lil John bit was so good! Always love your videos and that contagious laughter of yours 😂

The WDW Baymax performers are terrific. If you tell them you're satisfied with your care, they will start to "deflate" (squat down very slowly) until you say "Ow!"

Something interesting to discuss is possibly what characters have unnerved people. We were all once children, and either cried upon seeing a character or to this day feel uneasy? It's called Masklophobia. I'm able to greet characters like Minnie or Stitch just fine. But something about the Hyenas or Baloo kind of gives me the willies

I mean I don’t know if Luisa would count from Encanto but I would really want to see a video talking about why she has a character costume head while the rest of the Family Madrigal has actually Actors playing them?! 😆
