Disneyland Resort has just updated its official guide to popcorn buckets, sippers, and other drinkware and snack souvenirs. Halloween, Cars, Marvel, Star Wars, Coco, and park classics: several models clearly stand out for collectors.
Disney park souvenir containers have become true collector's items. Some are designed as simple reusable cups, while others feature light-up functions, moving parts, sounds, or sculpted details elaborate enough to be displayed as standalone merchandise pieces.
The official guide published by Disney Parks Blog brings together the items currently featured at Disneyland Resort in California. Disney states that the page will continue to be updated and that all offers remain subject to availability.
Halloween features the most spectacular pieces
The seasonal selection is particularly rich this year. Among the featured models, the Haunted Mansion Hatbox Ghost Bucket recreates the character's famous hatbox with his ghostly green face. Disney states a limit of two per person per transaction.
The Cars Land Lighted Cone Sipper, meanwhile, takes the iconic shape of the Cozy Cone Motel buildings. The orange cone features a Halloween face and lights up. Disney states a limit of ten per person per transaction for this item.
Disney also lists a Hades Glow Cube, whose flame changes from blue to red when immersed, an Oogie Boogie Moon Glow Cube, and an Ursula straw clip reserved for Magic Key pass holders. These small accessories are more compact than buckets but are still typically the kind of souvenirs sought by collectors.

Coco and Cars: two models that stand out
The Coco Lantern Sipper
Inspired by Coco, this sipper takes the shape of a lantern decorated with bronze tones, marigold flowers, and character illustrations. Its center is illuminated and rotates. Disney offers it at several Disneyland Park and Disney California Adventure retail locations, with a stated limit of two per person per transaction.
The Lightning McQueen Bucket
For Cars fans, the Lightning McQueen bucket is undoubtedly one of the most interesting in the guide. Disney describes it with its Rust-eze decals, its number 95, light-up elements, functional wheels, and even a roll-back and propulsion function when the vehicle is released. It is notably offered around Cars Land with a limit of two per transaction.
Collectors of this universe can also browse the Cars collection at Once Upon Magic.
Marvel: Captain America and the Fantastic Four in sipper form
Disney California Adventure also takes advantage of its Avengers Campus to offer several Marvel Universe drink accessories.
The official guide also mentions a light-up Pym particle capsule, a Mr. Fantastic straw clip, and a Spider-Man clip. To continue the theme in the shop, you can check out our Marvel collection.
Star Wars: several buckets designed as true display pieces
This is probably the most extensive universe after Halloween. Disney lists several pieces available around Galaxy's Edge and Tomorrowland.
- BDX Droid Bucket: light-up eyes with three modes, moving antennae, extendable legs, and a hidden compartment.
- Jabba’s Sail Barge Bucket: reproduction of the Khetanna with lights, small character figurines, and a removable strap.
- Salvaged Protocol Droid Bucket: weathered look and highly illuminated eyes.
- Bantha Sipper: fur-like texture, spiral horns, and built-in sound effects.
- The Mandalorian and Grogu Stainless Steel Tumbler: stainless steel tumbler decorated with scenes featuring Din Djarin and Grogu.
For the first four models listed above, Disney generally states a limit of two per person per transaction. The DJ R-3X Mug, however, is reported as available only at Oga’s Cantina.

Why do these items appeal so much to collectors?
This new update to the official guide illustrates a now well-established trend in Disney parks: food containers are no longer just practical souvenirs. Some are designed as true merchandise items with mechanics, lights, sound, moving parts, and very specific references to attractions or characters.
For a collector, several criteria make a particular difference: the level of detail, the presence of a mechanism or lighting, the connection to a cult attraction, the seasonal nature, and the limited availability at a single park or retail location. This is precisely what makes models like the Hatbox Ghost, Jabba's Khetanna, or Lightning McQueen particularly attractive.

Availability in France and at Disneyland Paris: what is confirmed
Important note: the September 28 guide concerns Disneyland Resort in California. To date, Disney has not announced in this publication the arrival of these same buckets and sippers at Disneyland Paris, nor their sale at Disney Store France or Europe.
These models should therefore not be considered available or soon available in France until an official European or Parisian announcement has been published.
Disney also reminds that offers can change and depend on stock. Quotas vary greatly by model: two per many items, ten for certain seasonal pieces, and sometimes a specific restriction related to a pass. This means that an item seen in the guide can quickly become unavailable without this constituting an official end of range.
