Wow, thanks for the update chris. Very useful.

I don't think its only for DLR. Would be kind of unfair, right? Unless they have a new quest coming out where only WDW can have it. So...yeah

Wow, how did you know about this (the park opens at 10am PST)? Is it a regular quest that you can get at the VMK Central Booth in front of Innoventions? Or was it a new quest put in the Insider Tour because the Haunted Mansion in now closed this month to decorate for the Haunted Mansion Holiday? Sorry for so many questions.

You know what.. that might actually make perfect sense.... with HM not coming back until January.. they can use POTC instead... since it is New Orleans Square... and a quest for BTM would be hard to do... LOL

I would love to see this quest..

I totally see your point, but I have a feeling the PotC quest is not a substitution or replacement for the HM quest. Some VMK tour guides have mentioned that they are still tossing around ideas for what do with the HM quest during the seasonal change. It would be so disappointing if you took the tour and weren't able to win all those exclusive HM items. My guess is that they're simply giving people more incentive to visit the parks. I know they can count on my money...

i wonder. i did not see anyone in the park with any new tourcards, but then again i was stuck by the cappo cart by the castle all night up to my elbows in whipped cream.

i would verify it today, but it takes too long to go into the park from backstage when im there. sorry!

Greenway
09-06-2005, 09:31 PM
I talked with someone who was there today and says the POTC quest was not available yet.

Seriously Chris, how do you know all this? VMK would have said something about it, and there would have to be atleast one other person out there with this info yet no one has stepped up.

I took the VMK insider tour last weekend (at WDW), and on it, they stated that the Haunted Mansion would be coming down for repairs / refurbishment in the coming months and that in that time they would be substituting the HM quest with a Pirates one. And that she believed (but couldn't comment on) the fact that they would be having new prizes to go with it. So that's coming from a VMK tour guide. Take it as you will.

Have a great day,
Loweyan

A POTC Quest sounds cool but POTC is a ride I go on for leisure not a quest. The prizes will be rare to me since Disneyland is now entering off-season and summer is leaving. So I think this DLR Prizes will not be as seen as some of the Quest items especially the WDW Quests.


As for Tomorrowland opening in '06 I always thought it would open Feburary 2006! I saw the sketches on the tour and it looks amazing so it will be worth the wait.

As for the prizes they sound cool and who knows is there two new quests

I was at Disneyland on monday, and did all 4 available quests, and no POC quest to be seen. Ticks me off too! lol I sure would have liked to accomplish that quest while I was there, seeing how I also missed the VIP tour because it was full. :( For all that are planning to take the VIP tour, get there half an hour before opening as the month of August had alot of blockout dates for pass holders, and they are coming in droves in September which has fewer blockout dates. This is what the Disneyland VMK center told me. Drat, I really want that Haunted Mansion room, hopefully will take the tour before they take the HM quest away. Just wish I had a last possible date in which I and the rest of us can get take the HM Quest? Anyone Know??? :wave2:

I was at Disneyland today (Tuesday 9/6 and here's what I report):
All insider tours for today are cancelled.
None of the different cast members that i talked to at the VMK Booth or inside Innoventions had even heard of a Pirates of the Caribbean quest and have not seen one.
Haunted Mansion was still open today
However, this does not mean that there will be no pirates quest, just not today as some thought. It would be a good logical guess that they would release it since Haunted Mansion will be changing over to it's Holiday/Nightmare Before Christmas Decor which would remove many of the answers to the Haunted Mansion quest.

This thread is not correct. I too am at Disneyland right now. NO new Quest exists Yet. :piratesk: ??

Ditto on the no VMK tour today. I handed all quest stuff, they handed me my VIP card and said have a nice day??

of course, who thought those darn cactus chairs would be for quest or that the rocket couches would disappear too. LOL :mickey2: :minniemo: :goofy: :donald:

But what made up for going to Disneyland and find out there's no new stuff is that Disneyland was EMPTY! Wow, its been a long time since i've seen those low wait times (And there's plenty of FastPasses for Space & Splash Mountain to spare :D )

This makes sense to me because the pirate costumes seem to be gender specific. It would be very confusing to distribute them if they have boy costumes and girl costumes on different cards.

I was at Disneyland today and went on the Tour again. My question about the Pirate quest beginning on Monday was not answered by my tour guide, but I was winked at. ;) Also, as I left POTC later on, I saw a bunch of Tour Guides (2 of whom I knew for sure were VMK Insider Tour Guides specifically) huddled around the exit, being instructed by another tour guide who was saying "now you will bring them up through here if the attraction line has too long a wait..."
I shall also go to Disneyland next week (hey Hearts maybe we can do the Tour together again :)) and report back on my findings. :)

Sneeky little spy. :D

I'm just glad yavn said that the costume isn't going to be a prize from the quest. I rather pay 2k+ for the costume with the various shirts and hats than hound someone on my friends list that can go to the parks again. I'm still feeling rather ashamed for doing that. :(

Are you sure these aren't some rumors that are buzzing around? You'd think that something as big as a costume would be released at every Disney park, not just Disneyland. Maybe WDW will come out with a pirate quest, but it seems kind of unfair that Disneyland gets some of the better stuff. Seeing as I have never seen any of the Disneyland quests, I can't say, but I know some of the Disney World prizes aren't that great. I was also disappointed that Disneyland had the Magic Mirror, so I think the pirate costume and all that stuff is going to get very rare. I am all the way on the other end of the country from Disneyland, and I can't just get up and go there whenever I want. (Disney World maybe, lol :Tongue: )

As far as Tomorrowland's opening, I thought Frontier and Tomorrowland came out together; at Christmas time. It seems kind of odd to make everyone anxious for Christmas but then move up the opening date. They were best off by opening them together.

09-08-2005, 01:20 PM
I don't know about this, they should have the same things at both parks, I live on the other side of the United States, so I can only go to WDW, and it's unfair if people who go to DL get stuff that others can't get from WDW.

greenhpper
09-08-2005, 01:21 PM
I spoke with guest relations last night and the Haunted Mansion at WDW will not close for refurb until November 5th! It will be closed for normal maintenance not due to any holiday events. So I guess East coasters will either get the short end of the stick, we will get the POTC quest in November, or our tour will finally become longer (We only go on three rides). I can only hope it is the last option. :D
