Super Cute Mickey Roses and Bows Tumbler at Hollywood Studios!
If you’re looking to add some sweet and romantic energy to your hydration game, you need to head over to Hollywood Studios ASAP. We just spotted the gorgeous Mickey Roses and Bows Tumbler, and let’s just say it’s giving major cottagecore-meets-classic-Disney vibes. It retails for $54.99, which is a bit of a splurge, but for a piece this cute? It might just be worth the extra Disney Dollars.
The design is a total dream. The base is a clean, crisp white with bold blue stripes running vertically, but the real stars are the details. It’s covered in pink bows, hearts, and the best part, roses that are strategically arranged to form Mickey heads. It’s that perfect Disney touch that isn’t too over-the-top but still feels magical.
Functionally, this thing is built to haul. It comes with a sturdy pink handle (perfect for carrying while you’re sprinting to your Slinky Dog Dash lightning lane) and a matching pink cap. To tie the whole color palette together, they’ve topped it off with a bright blue straw that pops against the pink. It’s basically the ultimate accessory for a sunny day at the parks.

LEGO SMART Play x Star Wars Sets Have Officially Landed
The LEGO building experience has officially leaped into hyperspace. After months of anticipation following a spectacular debut at CES and the Nuremberg Toy Fair, the LEGO SMART Playplatform is finally here. As of March 1, 2026, Star Wars fans can bring their brick-built creations to life in a way that hasn’t been possible since the minifigure was first introduced in 1978.
Powered by the revolutionary LEGO SMART Brick, these sets don’t just sit on a shelf—they respond to how you play.
At the core of this innovation is a custom-made chip smaller than a standard LEGO stud. This technology allows the “All-In-One” and “Compatible” sets to react in real-time using three main elements:
LEGO SMART Brick: The brain of the build that brings interactive responses.
LEGO SMART Tags: Triggers that unlock specific sounds and actions.
LEGO SMART Minifigures: Iconic characters like Darth Vader and Luke Skywalker that now feature authentic lightsaber hums and dialogue.
Now Available: The First Wave of Sets
Whether you want to pilot the most famous hunk of junk in the galaxy or recreate a dramatic lightsaber duel, the launch lineup has something for every era of the Star Wars saga.
All-In-One Sets (Includes SMART Brick & Charger):
Luke’s Red Five X-Wing: Hear the roar of the engines as you take flight.
Darth Vader’s TIE Fighter: Feel the power of the Dark Side with reactive sound effects.
Throne Room Duel & A-Wing: Features “The Imperial March” theme music when Emperor Palpatine takes his seat.
The launch journey for SMART Play has been nothing short of cinematic. In January, the LEGO Group transformed the Las Vegas Sphere into a 366-foot-tall Death Star. New York Giants quarterback Jaxson Dart even joined the mission, “blowing up” the orbital station via an interactive X-wing cockpit game.
Now, that same level of immersion is available at home. You can find these sets at LEGO.com, LEGO Stores, DisneyStore.com, and select retailers.
Experience it in Person
If you want to see the technology in action before you buy, select Target stores across the U.S. are hosting an immersive LEGO Star Wars SMART Play experience from March 1 through May 5.
The Force has never been more tangible in the world of LEGO. Which side of the galaxy will you build first?
M&M’s Cookie Tins Featuring the Sensational Six at EPCOT

Sensational Six Milk Chocolate M&M’s Cookie Tin – $24.99
Dressed in a vibrant blue, this tin features the gang in front of a classic blue Fantasyland Castle. Inside, you’ll find cookies packed with Milk Chocolate M&M’s Minis. It’s the perfect choice for those who love a traditional, sweet crunch.
Sensational Six Peanut Butter M&M’s Cookie Tin – $24.99
For those who prefer a salty-sweet combo, the red tin is the way to go. It features the same iconic character imagery, but the Fantasyland Castle is rendered in a warm, orange hue. These cookies are baked with Peanut Butter M&M’s Minis, offering a richer flavor profile.
Where to Find Them
We found both of these cookie tins stocked at the Creations Shop at EPCOT. These sturdy metal tins make for excellent keepsakes once the treats are gone—perfect for storing art supplies, small toys, or even more snacks!
Will you be grabbing one of these tins on your next visit to Walt Disney World?
Disney Officially Greenlights ZOMBIES 5 with Malachi Barton and Freya Skye
The supernatural saga that has defined a generation is expanding! Disney Branded Television has announced that a fifth installment of the ZOMBIES franchise is a go for Disney+ and Disney Channel. Following the massive global success of ZOMBIES 4: Dawn of the Vampires, the story is heading to the high seas—or at least the shoreline—as mermaids officially join the monster mash.
Breakout stars Malachi Barton and Freya Skye are set to return as Victor and Nova, the duo that led the charge in the fourth film. They aren’t the only familiar faces returning to the fold:
The Return of Bucky: Fan-favorite Trevor Tordjman is back as the legendary cheer captain (and Addison’s cousin), Bucky!
The Rayburn Crew: Also returning are Swayam Bhatia (Vera), Julian Lerner (Ray), and Mekonnen Knife (Vargas).
The OGs: Franchise icons Milo Manheim and Meg Donnelly are staying close to the magic, returning once again as executive producers.
Meet the Mermaids: Joining the cast as a mysterious trio of mermaids are Diaana Babnicova (Pearl), Taylor Oliver (Fin), and Olive Mortimer (Sandy).
A New Zombie in Town: Emily Costtrici joins the franchise as Izzy, a new transfer student who just happens to be Zed’s zombie cousin!
Picking up after the events of ZOMBIES 4, the newfound harmony between Daywalkers and Vampires in Rayburn is about to be tested. A band of “fierce mermaids” arrives on the scene, using a persuasive siren song to lure in allies and stir up trouble. It’s up to Nova and Victor to unite their groups, resist the melody, and figure out the mermaids’ true agenda before their fragile peace is washed away.
Behind the Scenes Magic
DGA Award-winner Paul Hoen, who has directed every single ZOMBIES film to date, returns to helm this fifth chapter. The creative team also includes:
Choreography: Dondraico Johnson (expect next-level dance sequences!)
Score: Tom Howe
Writers: Chris Hazzard, Michael Fontana, and Eydie Faye.
Production is slated to begin this spring in New Zealand, with an official title expected to be revealed later this year.
Nighttime at Disney’s Animal Kingdom is looking a little more alien these days! Pandora – The World of Avatar is reclaiming its signature glow as crews continue a massive repainting project of the land’s iconic bioluminescent pavement.
In the lush Valley of Mo’ara, even the ground you walk on is part of the story! Because the pathways in Pandora — The World of Avatar are designed to mimic alien soil embedded with bioluminescent flora, they require specialized upkeep to maintain their otherworldly glow after sunset. Over time, the heavy foot traffic of millions of explorers can dull these effects, leading Disney to launch a “glow-up” for the land’s famous UV-reactive paint.
The refresh is moving fast! After completing work on the left side of the main entrance last month, crews have officially moved to the right side of the walkway. This meticulous hand-painting ensures that every step you take feels like you’re truly wandering through a living, breathing Na’vi forest.
By day, the pathways of Pandora are a work of art, featuring intricate embossing of ferns, vines, and alien leaves filled with bright pastel greens and purples. These colors blend seamlessly into the lush landscape of the Valley of Mo’ara, but the real magic happens at twilight. Once the sun sets, these “painted” plants ignite with a vibrant bioluminescent glow, perfectly syncing with the surrounding illuminated flora to create an otherworldly neon forest right beneath your feet.
Disney Files New Permits for Cinderella Castle Work
While the ongoing restoration of Cinderella Castle to its classic 1971 color palette has already transformed the Magic Kingdom skyline, a newly filed permit suggests that even more work is brewing behind the scenes.
The latest update from the Magic Kingdom reveals a new “Notice of Commencement” filed on February 26, 2026, for work on Cinderella Castle. While the park is already buzzing with the ongoing “Royal Refresh” repainting project, this new permit—assigned to Disney’s own Buena Vista Construction Company—calls for “labor, materials, and/or electrical for construction.”
Valid through late February 2027, the permit remains broad, leaving fans to wonder if the work is destined for the castle’s exterior, the interior of Cinderella’s Royal Table, or perhaps the high-tech electrical systems that power nightly fireworks.
The Repaint: Since late January 2026, crews have been working to swap the 50th Anniversary “rose gold” for a classic 1971-inspired palette of whites, greys, and deep blues.
The Moat: The castle moat remains drained to accommodate heavy machinery, including boom lifts that arrived just last week to tackle the lower half of the structure.
Guest Impact: While the Let the Magic Begin welcome show is currently an audio-only experience, major entertainment like Happily Ever After continues to run with only minor technical adjustments.
Just in time for his birthday, everyone’s favorite purple dragon is leaping from the EPCOT tracks to the small screen! A brand-new “How NOT to Draw” short starring Figment has officially debuted on the Disney Channel Animation YouTube channel.
Narrated by legendary Disney superfan Neil Patrick Harris, the short features a whimsical back-and-forth between Harris and the purple dragon as they draw inspiration from the world around them. While the voice sounds remarkably familiar to the version currently heard on the Journey Into Imagination attraction at EPCOT, it actually marks a new era for the character.
A.J. LoCascio (who first took up the mantle in the Disney Speedstorm game) is officially the new voice of Figment. He follows in the footsteps of several Disney legends:
Billy Barty:Â The original voice who defined the character in 1983.
Corey Burton:Â Voiced the “Journey Into Your Imagination” era.
Dave Goelz:Â The voice fans have heard in the parks since 2002.
For eagle-eyed Disney historians, the short is a treasure trove of nostalgia. It features deep-cut references to every iteration of the attraction, including the iconic “Cat” and “Bat” blocks—a nod to the original 1983 ride where Figment would magically transform the words. You’ll also spot the sheet music for the cult-classic anthem “One Little Spark,” penned by the legendary Sherman Brothers.
The “How NOT to Draw” short is a literal love letter to EPCOT history, packed with “blink-and-you’ll-miss-it” Easter eggs. Fans will spot the iconic upside-down footprints that currently lead guests through the attraction’s queue, alongside a plasma ball with the word “Science” tucked behind it—a clear tribute to the “Science” scene from the 1983 original. Even the pavilion’s famous glass pyramids make a cameo as small decorative pieces in the background!
The nostalgia trip doesn’t stop there:
Orange Bird: Keep an eye out for a sweet nod to everyone’s favorite citrus friend from the Sunshine Tree Terrace.
The Dream Mobile: The legendary flying machine from the original Journey Into Imagination is lovingly referenced, honoring Figment’s whimsical roots.
The Big Reveal: While the short was officially scheduled to premiere on Tuesday, March 3, 2026, Disney surprised fans by dropping it early on March 1.
This early release serves as the perfect kickoff for Figment’s upcoming birthday celebration on March 5!
Spring Popcorn Mix Blossoms Back at Magic Kingdom for 2026
Spring has officially popped at Magic Kingdom, and yes, it is coated in caramel and pastel candy. The fan favorite Spring Popcorn Mix has returned for 2026, bringing a bright, sugary burst of color and crunch to Main Street, U.S.A.
Available at the Main Street Confectionery for $17.99, this limited-time treat is a full-on Easter basket in snack form. The mix features caramel popcorn tossed with pastel M&M’s milk chocolate candies in soft blue, pink, and green, plus crushed vanilla cookies, mini marshmallows, yellow white chocolaty drizzle, and a flurry of sprinkles. It is sweet, it is crunchy, and it absolutely looks like it hopped straight out of a springtime parade.
The cheerful combo gives serious Easter vibes, especially with that sunshine yellow drizzle tying it all together. If you remember this treat from its previous run, you already know it is a sugar rush with a seasonal twist. If not, now is your chance to scoop up a bag and taste spring by the handful.
While you are browsing the confectionery cases, keep an eye out for other festive goodies like an Easter Bunny candy apple and a bright yellow Mickey shaped candy apple covered in M&M’s. Main Street is basically a pastel playground right now.
Would you add this colorful popcorn mix to your must snack list?
