I'm doing something similar in terms of gathering gems for Rafiki! I couldn't get Zazu until a couple of days into the event, and no parade float for me, but I'm at 125 gems now from leveling up characters, etc. Sounds like you're much further in the overall game, so probably have more characters that you can level, which is likely helping you get those gems faster. I recently welcomed Pete and Eve - primarily for the gems because I was originally going to wait until after the event. Pluto's currently leveling up to lvl9, then I have Hamm ready to go right behind him to lvl 10, and maybe Pete in-between the two if I get his last hat before Pluto's done. I've also been running my parades as often as possible in hopes of gem drops, but lately it's just been magic (not even tokens when I run a float that has a token I need!) So frustrating! If all works out, Hamm should finish just a few hours before Simba's released. Once I see who drops Simba tokens, then I can figure out my next schedule of character leveling.So I know I'm further behind than most of you but I'm a little proud of myself. I started the event with enough gems to get zazu and the parade float. After that I was left with 10 gems. With all of my constant leveling up of characters and watching my theater videos I am now at 158 gems. After jack skellington finishes his level up in 2 1/2 hours I will put Hamm on his final level up hoping he gives me the 20 gems like everyone is saying he gives. I have my fingers crossed hoping I can get rafiki before the event ends. I am also ahead enough in the event that I'm ready to welcome simba but still have two days for him to unlock. I have bullseye at level 2 because tokens for him to get are impossible. And I'm 10,000 magic short of unlocking the new land. My zootopia is also at a hault because I don't have the stupid racetrack. So no jungle book unlocked for now. Prayers for me! I've really been focusing on getting these gems! They should have special character quests that give you gems!
