Will this be the one they have at Disneyland? I just picked one up from their Trader Sam's. Its a really nice ceramic Tiki cup. I really dig it.
Supposed to be the same but a different color.

Expect to line up hours before opening to chance getting one. If it's the same HHG mug hopefully this will bring down the prices on eBay a bit.

How is that different from any other day at Trader Sam's?

Is it really that bad? I looked and thought it'd be cool to get a mug and I'd be there about a week after so it lines up nicely but if there's an hour wait for the place to open then nuts to that.

The day we were there last year the CMs told me people lined up 3-4 hours before opening to get the mugs. I got there about 60 mins before open, and missed being able to get a mug by about 20 people. Normal day I think we put our name on the list 30 mins before open and were the 3 party to get seated once they did open.
You can probably get a seat on the patio (which can be a pretty chill place to be if its a nice day and they have a musician playing) no problems. They will serve you the full menu, except for the LE mug, so you could get other mugs if you wanted. If you will be in the area, can't hurt to swing by. You might luck out and hit a day with short/no wait and get the HHG mug, otherwise you could get one of the other mugs and still have a good time.

All the ebay vultures will be out that day, same as last year. If they really only made 200, then whoever made that choice at Disney is an idiot.

What does it look like? Is it Halloween themed or one of the many mugs they offer throughout the year?

This isn't my listing, I would never sell this guy but here is the one I grabbed. I am not sure if its limited edition or not but just thought it was cool.

Thanks. The ones from last year were Halloween themed so I wonder if these mugs will be the same. I don't think so because this looks like an open edition mug.

I'd expect it to just be new colorways of the old mug. You can see them from last year on Trader Sams Instagram -> https://www.instagram.com/tradersams/ blue for WDW and grey/white for DLR.
Quoting from the DPB here https://disneyparks.disney.go.com/b...lt-disney-world-resort-and-disneyland-resort/ it should just be a new edition. So most likely different colors, maybe tweak in size or bottom stamp, but that is a fairly detailed mug which isn't cheap to design.
The one that @TJ Vazquez posted is a normal year round mug. It was a new version of the mug, but it's open edition and not a Halloween mug.
If it's like last year, and 200 a day, should last for about 12 days (supposedly 2,500 mugs per last year).

Nothing Will Ever Beat the Nautilus...
When we visited TS at WDW in Sept, the bartender told us they would be getting new versions of drinkware soon. Not sure if this is true or not. We currently have all the ones we want. (making future trips a little cheaper) But, if they get a new set...we might have to start all over again. I am hoping for some type octopus/kracken to go along with the Nauti.

Nope, not selling ever. Plus, do you know how much that thing holds? It did come with two straws, and no I didn't share.
