There are few things that draw as much of a crowd as coveted Disney merchandise.
We’ve seen hours-long lines for gift shops in the parks, special edition drinkware that sold out online in minutes, and popcorn buckets that broke the internet. There are some things that Disney fans just have to have! Whether it’s an item that played on their nostalgia or a collection based around their favorite character, these ten souvenirs made Disney fans go crazy!
Figment Popcorn Bucket
Possibly the most well-known of this whole list, the Figment Popcorn Bucket arrived on the scene during the 2022 EPCOT International Festival of the Arts.
Fans lined up for literal HOURS to get their hands on one of these iconic popcorn buckets — one Cast Member estimated it had grown to a six-and-a-half-hour wait!
This cute popcorn bucket became such a cultural icon that it even inspired one eBay user to list a “Bad Artwork Sketch of 2022 EPCOT Festival of the Arts Figment Popcorn Bucket,” giving 90% of the proceeds to charity.
The following year, Disney brought a new version of this bucket back for the 2023 EPCOT Festival of the Arts, and it was such an anticipated moment that even the Orlando International Airport tweeted their excitement.
Figment Loungefly Mini Backpack and Ear Headband
The Figment mania has continued well into 2023, with fans eagerly awaiting the opening of the new Figment meet-and-greet in EPCOT! In June, Disney released a new pair of Figment ears in the park, and it looked like Figment was flying across them.
Fans went crazy over them, and they sold out quickly! Later, in August, Disney released a Figment Loungefly Mini Backpack in the park, and it sold out in a day.
Then, ushering in the opening of Figment’s new meet-and-greet in September, Disney released these two items online — but they have since sold out again!
Nightmare Before Christmas Starbucks Tumbler
In September, Disney released a new Starbucks tumbler for the Halloween season. The Nightmare Before Christmas Tumbler sold out almost instantly online!
A few days later, Disney rereleased it online, but it sold out quickly once again. Fans love their Nightmare Before Christmas merchandise! During Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Christmas Party this year, the Nightmare Before Christmas Popcorn Bucket was extremely popular and has sold out as well.
Disney Halloween merchandise sure can draw a crowd!
Giant Light-Up Mickey Pumpkin
Speaking of Disney Halloween merchandise, the Mickey Mouse Light-Up Jack-O-Lantern was a hit back in 2022, selling out almost immediately!
In 2023, Disney brought this souvenir back, and it was just as popular. The item sold out online quickly! While Disney rereleased it a few days later, it sold out again.
50th Anniversary Starbucks Tumbler
When Disney World’s 50th Anniversary celebration kicked off in October 2021, tons of new merchandise was released. While a lot of these items were popular, one souvenir in particular caused fans to really freak out! The 50th Anniversary Starbucks Tumbler was a huge hit.
This geometric tumbler featured the 50th Anniversary logo on one side and the Starbucks logo on the other. Disney released the item online, but it has since sold out.
You can, however, still find a shiny gold version of this tumbler online, as well as a matte black one.
50th Anniversary Tote Bag
The Starbucks tumbler wasn’t the only 50th Anniversary item that had fans pulling out their wallets! The Harveys 50th Anniversary Bag popped up in Magic Kingdom and Disney Springs in January 2022, and it sold out fast! Later, it was released online, but it didn’t last long there either.
This bag was part of the Vault Collection that Disney released for the Anniversary, and it had all of those awesome retro vibes.
With vintage illustrations of Minnie, Mickey, Donald, Goofy, Pluto, and more, this bag was a popular way to celebrate the occasion!
Scarlet Witch Loungefly Mini Backpack and Ear Headband
Lastly, fans really went wild over the WandaVision series on Disney+, and when Disney released a new collection for the show, it sold out fast.
The Scarlet Witch Ear Headband sold out in seconds when they were released online! They were then released in the parks but sold out pretty quickly there as well. Fortunately, Disney has rereleased these ears online so you can still get them!
There’s no telling how long they’ll be around this time, so head over to shopDisney to get them soon if you missed out!
Fans also really liked the Scarlet Witch Loungefly Mini Backpack that matched, and the item sold out pretty fast as well. Just like the ears, however, Disney rereleased it — so you can still find it online!
The bag is inspired by her iconic headpiece, just like the ears.
