The bucket is similar to the Mickey-shaped balloons that are popular at the park, except it’s completely greyscale like the animated cartoon. It’s topped by Minnie’s classic sailor hat and flower. The bottom even features a frilly skirt design.

On the back, you have the popcorn hatch. Do note that unlike the ones released at Disneyland, these don’t have any Annual Passholder branding, but only the Disney Parks logo debossed on the bottom.

The bucket sits flat, thanks to two raised edges on the bottom, so you don’t have to worry about your popcorn toppling over.
