Although the 2023 EPCOT International Festival of the Arts has come to an end as of yesterday, a visit to the park today revealed a surprise — the beloved Figment popcorn bucket is still available in a new location!
A stroll past the Imagination Pavilion popcorn cart revealed our purple dragon pal has escaped both his attraction and the Odyssey Pavilion where the bucket was sold this year. He’s still available with the EPCOT40 strap for $25 along with the 50th Anniversary bucket, and there was a small but tolerable queue to bring him home.
The beloved purple dragon debuted to pandemonium and insanely long lines when the Figment popcorn bucket exploded in popularity during the 2022 EPCOT International Festival of the Arts. Guests waited up to seven hours to score one of the beloved treat collectibles, leading to Disney ultimately requiring guests to mobile order the collectible. This requirement returned this year for part of the festival, but the hype? Not so much. While he did sell out on the first day, stocks were replenished quickly. Near the festival’s end, Disney lifted the mobile order requirement, and now it seems they may have in fact over-ordered as he’s being sold past the festival’s end.
There’s no word on how long Disney will offer the Figment popcorn bucket past the end of the 2023 EPCOT International Festival of the Arts, so if you still haven’t been able to bring one home, now’s your best chance!
