The Disneyland 70th Celebration introduces a new, highly anticipated collectible: the Talking Mickey Mouse popcorn Bucket. This isn’t just any souvenir; it’s an interactive and animated piece that celebrates Disney’s landmark anniversary. Available since May 16, this unique bucket quickly became a must-have for guests and collectors, sparking immense buzz across the resort.
This special Mickey Mouse popcorn Bucket features Mickey looking dapper in a black tuxedo jacket, red pants, white shirt, and a yellow bowtie. The blue carrying strap also showcases smiling images of Mickey, adding to its charm. However, its true appeal lies beyond its stylish appearance. This bucket brings Mickey to life in an entirely new way, offering an experience previously unseen in Disney popcorn novelties.
The Mickey Mouse popcorn Bucket truly stands out due to its interactive features. It moves its head from side to side, blinks its eyes, and even talks! Guests can activate Mickey by simply saying “Hey Mickey” or “Mickey,” prompting him to respond with classic phrases like “Hiya, I’m Mickey!” and “Let’s celebrate!” This animatronic element makes the bucket a technological marvel and a delightful companion.vTake a look at the video below to see for yourself:

Collectors and fans eagerly sought this innovative bucket since its debut. Priced around $51.99-$55, its cost reflects its unique animated capabilities.

Its popularity suggests it will be a defining collectible of the 70th Celebration.
The bucket’s lifelike movements have generated quite the buzz. Many guests find its animated expressions endearing and exciting, adding an extra layer of magic to their park visit.
