Doc McStuffins to appear at D23

One of the most common questions I receive concerns Doc McStuffins. She is also one of the more popular search terms to enter on the blog. Doc has a lot of fans and they really want her to appear in the parks. We saw Sofia the First make her grand public premier at the Disney World Christmas Parade. Fans had hoped that Sofia would already be offering meets in the parks. That was pushed back at least until Fall 2013. Well, today Disney released a little big of information that shows that Doc McStuffins will indeed become a meetable character.

Doc will make her grand public premier at the D23 Fan Expo in Anaheim, Calfornia on Sunday, August 11th. Here’s hoping that it points to Doc McStuffins and Sofia the First joining the Hollywood Studios Character crew this fall! Perhaps these two will replace June and Oso at Hollywood and Vine?

Other characters said to appear at D23 include Agent P, Phineas & Ferb, Spider Man, Iron Man, Sofia the First and Jake
