We love getting to go to Disney World every day, and we love spotting new merchandise when it becomes available.
All dressed up for the 50th Anniversary!
So you can imagine our excitement when the 50th Anniversary Mickey Mouse Popcorn Bucket turned up today, just about two weeks after the official start of the celebrations! And Mickey was VERY happy to be out and about at the theme parks — so much that he decided to take a tour around the resort!
And like all Disney World guests, Mickey had to stop first at Cinderella Castle in Magic Kingdom and get that first selfie in. Same, Mickey, same.
Castle Selfie!
But then he had to make a quick park hop over to Disney’s Animal Kingdom for that perfect shot in front of the Tree of Life. Does Mickey sing the “Circle of Life” every time he’s in front of the tree like we do (#sorrynotsorry)?
Hello from Disney’s Animal Kingdom!
Then it was over to EPCOT for the Spaceship Earth photo — Mickey is certainly hitting all the high profile spots! But can you blame him? He IS a VIP!
Mickey loves EPCOT!
We also caught Mickey admiring the view where he could see both the Monorail AND Spaceship Earth!

But Mickey was most excited about visiting Disney’s Hollywood Studios! It is, after all, the park that has a Mickey and Minnie-themed ride! And he was so proud to take a photo in front of Mickey and Minnie’s Runaway Railway.
SO proud of his accomplishments
Mickey stopped just long enough to let Edna Mode approve of his 50th anniversary outfit, which she was happy to learn he had no cape.
Edna approves!
Mickey briefly considered taking a ride on the Tower of Terror…
To ride or not to ride..
But he later decided that it might be too scary, so he just settled for the photo in front of it instead.

Mickey eventually called it a day, but he had a BLAST touring Disney World! We’re glad you could drop by, Mickey!

DFB,
Does anyone know if the Mummy Mickey Popcorn bucket will be sold after Halloween?
Brandon, hard to say. It’s possible if they’ve got a stash of them left to sell, the could stick around for a bit. But I imagine the Christmas buckets will be edging them out.
