The new popcorn bucket features Sam Eagle standing proudly behind a patriotic podium decorated with festive bunting. He’s sporting a red, white, and blue Uncle Sam-inspired top hat, while the attached Disney Parks lanyard strap continues the patriotic theme with stars-and-stripes styling. The collectible has already generated plenty of excitement among Disney and Muppets fans eager to add the feathered patriot to their popcorn bucket collection.
Disneyland Resort has confirmed the bucket will debut on June 30, while Walt Disney World has only announced that it will arrive later this summer. Disney has not yet revealed which locations will carry the bucket, but guests should expect purchase limits of two per person, per transaction, while supplies last.
