M&M'S store coming to Disney Springs in 2020

[Nunu]

Oh yeah, there's way more to it than just the shop. It's about $28 to get into the interactive area, if memory serves me.

I've always wondered about that restaurant. The outside always looked a little over-the-top but it seems to be popping every time I've been there. If my son drags me back to Crayola, I might drag him there for dinner.*


*I say drags me back because as an adult, the Crayola Experience was very much a one-and-done for me. Enjoyable but not repeatable. For a child, it seems to be a different kind of thing, though.

Crayola Experience sounds like a fun place for kids, and it's a big hit with tourists too, which would make it a good fit for Disney Springs, I think.

And about Bucca, food is great and abundant, you just have to embrace it's purposedly wacky-over the top atmosphere. If you go, look for The Pope Room!

now aside from a costumed character meet and greet, how exactly is the M&Ms store an interactive attraction? Interactive in that you have to actually pay for the candy and then you can eat it?

The London one has a few things like a what M&M are you game where a camera scans you and picks a colour.

Or the hilarious pictures of kids in the bathrooms! Great food and bring home the leftovers.

Well, there's also picking the color of the m&ms you want!!

What fun it will be tricking people to try the green m&ms!!!!

I always take Green M&M's that's is my favorite M&M's!

Unpopular opinion lol but M&Ms World should have replaced DisneyQuest.

We just get a tiny, crappy store, but the one in Mall of America is two stories and giant.

Finally something else kids can truly enjoy at Disney Springs!

Still a bit bland. But hey. You take what you can get these days.

So...would that make the grocery store an interactive experience since you are picking the food you want in the cart? Could all shopping be labeled as "interactive experiences"?

With that design, they should put it next to the Riviera resort and claim the inspiration was Walt's trip to a small Swiss chocolate boutique high in the Alps.

Wonder how much the designers charged for that. Talk about Plain M&M's.

Looks good to me.

I get what they're going for, but I'm not a fan. It's too garish in color and bland in overall design to me, and I can't imagine looking at that yellow in bright sunlight is going to feel good on your eyes.

 

[Andrew C]

It's too garish in color

well...it is M&Ms...they aren't brown, white, gray or pastel...

Oh, I know. I'm referring mostly to that huge swath of yellow against a white background...talk about glare.

ETA...There are dark brown ones! Do they still have the tan ones? (I know they all taste the same, but those were my fave when I was a kid.)

M&M’s do come in such colors at these very stores.

lol...I know. I was thinking about that as I posted.

I wonder if the store will let people make their own customized bags with their own selected colors and writings on the shell...

Agree on that. This place has been showing it's age (15 years!) for quite a while now.

 

[Heppenheimer]

Is anyone really a big enough M&M fan to justify an entire store? Not a candy I would turn down, but not one I would seek out either.
