Overview
- Disney announced the Sam Eagle popcorn bucket will debut at Disneyland Resort on June 30 and said it will arrive at Walt Disney World later this summer, though no WDW date has been released.
- The collectible shows Sam Eagle at a patriotic podium with bunting, an Uncle Sam–style red, white and blue top hat, and a stars-and-stripes Disney Parks lanyard strap.
- Disney has set a two-per-person purchase limit and says the bucket will be sold while supplies last, but outlets differ on whether specific popcorn-cart locations have been confirmed.
- The bucket is part of Disney’s America 250 Fourth of July merchandise and food rollout that included red, white and blue items at Walt Disney World beginning June 15.
- Limited-edition popcorn buckets regularly sell out and spur lines and resale activity, so guests should expect high demand and possible short-term crowding around merchandise carts.
