Halloween Mickey Popcorn Bucket

fun thanks for calling -

Any tips on where to find them...we are going first thing in the morning but still not sure where we should go ;)
 
I saw them at pretty much every popcorn stand in DL, only really saw it at the popcorn stand near Soarin' in DCA, I thought I saw it at another place too but can't remember.
I got mine at the popcorn stand in Fantasyland, across from Storybook Land. I also saw them in Tomorrowland and on Main St, there was a popcorn stand sort of in the middle thing, where they have the flag and such.
But pretty much they are easy to find in DL. I saw them quite often over there. It would probably be easier to buy one there rather than DCA :)

When they had them on Sunday we saw them most places, except the popcorn stand in front of the Haunted Mansion. I figured they didn't put them there because the popcorn lines were quite long (when they were selling them) and that area is so congested, especially with the HM holiday overlay.

We got ours as the stand in front of the Mark Twain. I also so long lines for them on Main Street at the hub.
 
We got ours on Sunday, the 17th. We were able to get caramel corn instead of popcorn for $10.75 vs. $9.50. I really love their caramel corn.

We got ours at the Caramel/Popcorn stand near Mickey's Fun Wheel in DCA.

We did have to wait awhile once we were there while they waited for more ghosts to appear. Seems like they had a bunch of them with broken ears. Maybe that's one of the reasons they are running out? The ears have a tendency to break off? I did see one family leaving on Thurs. the 14th with their bucket and just before they crossed over to DCA one of the kids dropped Mickey and one of his ears broke! :scared1:
 

i dont understand why people are buying these by bulk. We have reports of people buying 10 of them without popcorn... :\

Now that's just crazy! Without the popcorn (caramel corn in my case).

I would guess people are thinking they can sell them online for more?


Yep, I just confirmed it! I looked on ebay and found about 20 listings (maybe more) for mickey ghosts. Ranging from $20-$30 Buy it now. One for auction is up to $14.50 with free shipping and ends today.

Hopefully all those who are buying them to resell them will be stuck with them after Halloween. If someone wants to buy one and get it in time for this Halloween it would need to be mailed by Mon, or Tuesday, at the latest.

Added-there's at least one on craiglist who is selling them for $25 each or $20 if you buy more than one. I would guess this is one of those who is buying them in bulk. Wouldn't it be great if after Halloween Disney sells them off for a couple bucks a piece?:rolleyes1
 
actually, the rumor is that if hot popcorn or caramel is scooped in, it may morph the container... idk if they fixed the issue but that was one of the reasons why there were tons of returns...

doubt it, by how they are going, Disney will run out again and wouldnt be able to get another shipment.

Any word if a shipment arrived today?
 
I asked on Sunday 10/24 while I was there. They said no more until next Friday....I was so bummed. I looked every day.

This stinks! The CM told me the 24th or 26th when I called last week. I will be there on Wednesday (the 27th) so I will be looking and hoping! :wizard:
 
Wow, I am glad I got mine week ago Sunday. :goodvibesI didn't have a problem with mine morphing? But one of the sides started to separate but it was a "snap" to put it back together. Maybe the caramel corn isn't as hot as the popcorn is when it goes in? I know they won't sell the caramel corn when it's too hot-I had to wait about 10 min. for it to cool down before I could purchase it.

Hope those of you that want it can still get it. I'm going tomorrow night so I'll report back if they get them in early.
