Pixar Fest is in full gear now at Disneyland and it already has the viral souvenir to prove it. Yesterday, Disneyland started selling popcorn buckets shaped like the Little Green Men from Toy Story at both of its parks and people are so obsessed with them there are already three-hour long lines to get one, according to Instagram posts.
But don’t go running off to Disneyland just yet to pick up one for yourself just yet. These viral hits are only available for Annual Passholders to buy as an exclusive souvenir.
Between now and May 24, Annual Passholders can get one by visiting select popcorn carts (see which ones here) at Disneyland or Disney California Adventure Park. While waiting in line for hours and paying $20 for a popcorn bucket might seem a bit over-the-top, if you have one of these aliens you’ll be able to get $1 popcorn refills at either park until June 21, 2018.
These are already so popular on Instagram that there are already over 150 posts with the hashtag #alienpopcornbucket even though they just went on sale on Tuesday, April 24. While people are mostly sharing ‘grams of the little green men full of popcorn or in front of Disney landmarks, there’s already a trend of turning them into gigantic glow sticks. (Hint: All you have to do is stick your iPhone with the light on inside the empty popcorn buckets at night.)
OOOOOOH, indeed.
Technically only annual passholders can buy these at the two Disneyland Resorts in California, but of course plenty of them are already being re-sold on eBay. So far, there are over 55 of these little green men being sold on eBay with prices started at just $1 for Auctions and $50 for Buy It Now.
While this is the first time the alien popcorn buckets have been sold at Disneyland, a similar version with a different colored strap as well as a Christmas version of these little guys have been sold at the Tokyo Disney Resorts in the past, which just proves that Tokyo Disney always gets the cool stuff first.
