The new Mickey Mouse popcorn bucket releasing Friday, May 16, for the Disneyland 70th Celebration has a terrifying new feature which you can see in the Reel released from Disney below. That slow head turn in the Reel is giving me horror movie vibes! Just add the score from The Shining and Mickey Mouse takes on a whole new meaning. Jokes aside, this is a pretty impressive popcorn bucket.

The Mickey Mouse Disneyland 70th celebration popcorn bucket moves its head side to side, blinks, and talks. Some catchphrases include, “Hiya I'm Mickey!” and “Let's celebrate!” While we've seen popcorn buckets that make noise before, this is an interesting turn of events (of the head?) to see an animated popcorn bucket figure.

New Mickey Mouse Popcorn Bucket Will Be Popular

Due to the unique features of this Mickey Mouse popcorn bucket, I can see this selling out fast. You can find the Disneyland 70th Celebration Mickey Mouse Bucket starting May 16 at these locations:

  • Disneyland Park: Alien Pizza Planet, Galactic Grill’s Seasonal Novelty Release, Harbour Galley, Hungry Bear Barbecue Jamboree Seasonal Novelty Release, Refreshment Corner, Troubadour Tavern Seasonal Novelty Store, and select popcorn carts throughout the park
  • Disney California Adventure Park: Hollywood Land Seasonal Novelty Release, Paradise Gardens Park Seasonal Novelty Release, and Popcorn at Grizzly Peak Airfield
  • Disneyland Hotel: The Coffee House
  • Disney’s Grand Californian Hotel & Spa: GCH Craftsman Grill and Grand Californian Great Hall Cart

Since this Micky Mouse popcorn bucket is going to be so widely available, there could be a good chance Disneyland will have enough stock to ensure guests can get one before resellers grab them all. The price of this popcorn bucket is an astounding $51.99 which is an extremely high price for a novelty item.

However, since this bucket is like having your own little animated Mickey Mouse, that price is likely a bit justified when comparing it to other Disneyland popcorn buckets.
