You will not see Mickey Mouse

To maintain the natural theming of the land Disney branded merchandise and Mickey Mouse images have been omitted.

Apparently there are a few Hidden Mickeys but I have yet to see one.

You will not get a photograph with a Na’vi

Pandora is more classy than that.

No photographers or character meets here.
