Woody, Jessie, and Rafiki being replaced with the Muppets at the Magic Kingdom?

Rumors are showing up around the internet that the Disney characters Woody, Jessie, and Rafiki will be leaving the Magic Kingdom, with their last day set for October 1.

Woody and Jessie currently greet guests near Splash Mountain in Frontierland (he can also be found near Toy Story Mania in Disney’s Hollywood Studios). Jessie does not host any other meet and greets, so it’s possible that she would move to Hollywood Studios to continue to greet with Woody.
