Definitely not defending it; but it's been noted (and I've actually done it this way before to buy the same thing for the whole family) that the 2 per person is based on the people present, so it could be mom, dad, 3 kids, 2 grand parents, and 3 strangers together; but the 20 buckets could all be purchased on 1 transaction, and then the 1-2 people take them out to the car while everyone else goes on their way....
Though the fact that you can bring the whole family/strangers along to get around it still sucks

and in a non bucket related post:
What font should I use to put "FIGMENT" in red on a yellow shirt? I usually disney bound as figment (purple pants, yellow shirt w/ the name on it, horns on a headband) and recently got some new shirts, just not sure what font to use (and it's been a few years since I did the other one, so I forget what I used).
Also any opinions if I should just use HTV (now that I have a machine to cut vinyl) or stitch on fabric letters (how my original tank was done [cropped] picture below)

Thier mindset..Bringing back Figzilla again..
Honestly I wouldn't mind that, b/c I missed him when he was around. It was during our "only 1 or 2 parks a trip every other year" visit style, and when he was meeting, it was not our EPCOT year(s)...

Maybe Disney could bank some of that there popcorn bucket revenue and use it towards refurbishing the attraction???

With lines like this for the merch why would they need to?
With the ride being as horrible as it is for such a long time now it’s a miracle that anyone still likes the purple demon. (Yes I know he was more likeable in the original attraction, but it’s been over 20 years since anyone’s experienced that.)

The lesson Disney will take from all of this is "we need to sell more popcorn buckets" and not "we need to do more/better with Figment".
This is where the disconnect between Disney and their audience happens. Current leadership doesn't understand why people like Figment to begin with, or that original park creations can have such strong appeal. They think people like buying novelty merch because it's novelty merch.

Can't help to wonder if they would have done something with the Kitchen Kabaret or Cranium Command characters for something...The lesson Disney will take from all of this is "we need to sell more popcorn buckets" and not "we need to do more/better with Figment".
