There was just one problem to Disney's solution to popcorn bucket mania: it didn't work.

The more of these things i see the more i wonder how they are meant to hold popcorn.

It’s a toy that adults feel comfortable purchasing for themselves but I still give them the side-eye…

I firmly believe some of these non popcorn holding buckets would sit idly on shelves until they hit the outlets if they werent called popcorn buckets.

Preach.
I have three or four themed-but-normal-shape popcorn buckets (Aulani, Christmas, Halloween) and we use them to... wait for it... hold popcorn! At least Figment and Ghost Mickey are vaguely bucket-shaped. But yeah some of these newest ones are so useless it's silly.

I'm looking at this thing and wonder where you put the popcorn. Maybe you open the hood and hold the bucket on its side?

Hate to say it, but I’m a sucker for the popcorn buckets.
I’ll just wait out the mad rush, and pick this one up next year for $10 or $15.

OK, my family are Toad superfans(kids have watched the move at least half a dozen times) and we love riding Wild Ride in DL. That said, this is not a bucket. It's..I don't know what. But I hope it sells so gosh darn well they realize maybe the ride deserves a comeback. Certainly could fit somewhere by Dumbo, no?

The back folds open, but it ain't holding much, and good luck getting your hand in there (or cleaning the thing).

Actually, now that I think of it. Why not solve Two problems. Update the speedway and bring back toad at the same time. Retheme it to Toad with set pieces from the movie, You could put the cars on tracks like they are now so kids still feel they are driving them but make them electric, with engine noises put in, a crazy horn sound, and they keep moving at a steady pace whether you hit the gas or not(keeps the ride from jamming up). Maybe even a spin button.

This is why I like the design they went with for the AP popcorn bucket. It can actually hold popcorn and you don’t have to contort you hand to get popcorn out of it.

Ok, I’m fully prepared for the consequences of my following statement:
- I want one of those buckets and I would purchase one if I was onsite this week.

No consequences from me. That looks pretty cool but I am not getting one.
