It's always a cluster at 6am. You just have to keep trying, folks were refreshing at 8am and still getting pickup times. I don't do the mobile order anymore, I just go when they are on sale at the bar. Disney generally releases around 5000 mugs each time but this time they only did just over 2000. That being said, they were still available as of last night, should still be available today AND you get the Matterhorn plastic cup (while supplies last, they were out of stock for a while Friday).

I tried for about 20 minutes and then again at 645 or 7. Refreshed, signed out, restarted phone, etc. The fact people got them as late as 8 but I couldn't all morning just means their software for running this is broken or failing.

Not sure if there's any tips or strategies that help with this kind of thing. The Monstro release went well for me and again it seemed even when I checked at 9am there was plenty for that date. No luck with Matterhorn though. Probably 75 dollars I shouldn't spend anyways 😅.

Didn't realize you can just walk up and get the mug after release though! Do you need a sam's reservation to get one?

No. Just walk up to the outside window or sit at the outside bar and order there. That's where we got the ones I picked up for friends out of state. I would go very soon as they are getting low on stock, may only last the next day or two.

You may have to pick me up one. ;)

Actually my sister is at Disneyland every Sunday. She usually keeps a look out for stuff for me.

Yes
I’ve been looking over that Star Speeder as well…the one available at the D23 event looked fantastic.
Probably insanely expensive, but man does it seems incredibly cool.
I’m an ‘Original Star Tours’ kinda nerd.

I noticed in some photos of the release at the D23 Event that there was a sign on the shelf next to the boxes of Speeders noting a release on ShopDisney in January.
Not 100% sure if that meant it would eventually hit the online Shop or was just noting more merch coming.

Speaking of Star Tours..

Meant to share this last month, but just now being reminded that I have yet to -
This talking, light up action figure of RX-24 is terrific.
I picked one up last month and love it.
Highly recommended!

I bought one. That Rex is pretty damn cool. Great value for $30. Kind of had me regretting buying the expensive one from D23 a couple years back.

What shop was this in? I've been collecting these each year and was just at DL but didn't check for this.

The picture might be from WDW. I haven't seen it show up on ebay yet so I think it is coming. Florida seems to get stuff before we do. I know the Zombie droid is available at Disneyland.

Shop Disney is suppose to have at 11am ET/8am PT on 10/7.
