With the arrival of Franklin and Woodstock in 2012, are there going to be any more characters?

I believe Marcie will be at most CF parks in 2013 but I think that will be it.

Sigh. I thought this was going to be about legumes.

I always though there would be Pigpen

Pigpin would be great,

Well, if you to go natorps they have peanut plants in spring, and i have peanuts in my 2012 bunker, with.....oh wait. I personally think that all is well with the franchise, maybe more characters to be added, but in the years to come one may only speculate on the future of this franchise.

Pigpin would be great,

I was expecting Pigpen to be part of the first line up. He's pretty popular, but I wonder how they would do the cloud around him, or would they even bother? The characters always look well cleaned, I wonder if they would just stitch some etch marks on his face and clothes to represent Schultz's inking of dirt?

I think that would be perfect. Being the only Peanuts character with a signature visual effect, I don't think he'd lose recognizability in its absence. Of course I wouldn't put it past some of the ingenious costume designers to engineer some kind of nearly-invisible, springy wires holding up arcs of gray, fabric-coated "dust billows" that bounce randomly about the character as he/she walks about.

I hope Rerun might make an appearance in years to come.

Also, I was kinda hoping we'd get a new plaza show like Great America

(poor Franklin, he didn't get mentioned in the roll call)

*edit-a different entrance is what I went to say, thanks kblanken for pointing that out

Is that different from the Peanuts themed dance at Kings Island?

Anyone know what CF had before they had the peanut gang?

CP had the Berenstein Bears.
