First Look at Pixar’s Hoppers Popcorn Buckets, Sippers and More

Pixar’s Hoppers Novelty Popcorn Buckets and Sippers Revealed

With Pixar’s latest adventure, Hoppers, set to leap into theaters on March 6, 2026, the real race isn’t just for tickets—it’s for the concession stand. Movie theater chains are going all out with exclusive novelty items that celebrate the film’s “Amphibian King” viral sensation, Tom Lizard, and the robotic beaver hero, Mabel.

Here is a breakdown of the must-have popcorn buckets, sippers, and collectibles coming to a theater near you.

AMC Theatres: The “Climbing” Tom Lizard Bucket

AMC is leaning into the viral popularity of Tom Lizard with a highly stylized 3D popcorn tin.

• The 3D Popcorn Tin: This black metal bucket is covered in a vibrant green gecko-print pattern. The standout feature? A sculpted green Tom Lizard figure that appears to be “climbing” up the side of the bucket.
• Character Toppers: AMC will also offer themed cups with a variety of collectible toppers, including King George, Mabel in her beaver form, and (of course) Tom Lizard.
• Dolby Cinema Exclusive: Fans attending the early screening in Dolby Cinema on March 7 can snag a mystery character keychain, available while supplies last.

Cinemark: The Pond Crew Tumbler

Cinemark’s collection focuses on the colorful “Pond Crew” and offers some of the most unique structural designs we’ve seen recently.

• The 16oz Sculpted Tumbler: This clear, yellow-tinted tumbler features a “cup within a cup” look. A Tom Lizard figure sits at the very bottom, while the lid is topped with a clear dome housing a figure of Mabel.
• Fun-Sized Combo: For those looking for a classic set, Cinemark is offering a bright yellow “Pond Crew” popcorn pail and matching cup featuring the full animal cast, including Ellen Bear and Loaf.

Harkins Theatres: The Beaver Lodge Bucket

Harkins is taking a more “sculptural” approach with a bucket that looks more like a toy than a snack container.

• Beaver Lodge Popcorn Bucket: This elaborate bucket is shaped like a beaver lodge. It features Mabel (in robot beaver form) and her communicator perched on top.
• The “Easter Egg”: True to the film’s playful nature, the lodge contains a hidden Tom Lizard tucked away for fans to find.

Fandango & Marcus Theatres: Exclusive Pin Bundles

If you prefer your collectibles to be wearable, Fandango and Marcus Theatres are offering a Pond Crew Pin Bundle.

• The Deal: For $29.99, fans receive a movie ticket and one of three official Disney exclusive collector pins.
• The Designs: The pins feature Mabel, King George, or Tom Lizard, each holding their own tiny box of movie theater popcorn.

When to Buy

While Hoppers officially opens on March 6, these novelty items typically hit concession stands 1–2 weeks early. Given the “accidental viral marketing” success of Tom Lizard, these are expected to sell out quickly. You don’t usually need a movie ticket just to visit the concession stand, so if you have your heart set on that 3D lizard tin, you might want to “hop” over to the theater early!
