The Most Sought After Disney Parks Holiday Gifts!
If you’re in the Christmas shopping market for a Disney fanatic, I have some great news for you. A quick google search will provide you with hundreds of viable options! One click, and you’re done! If you’ve got a Disney Parks-specific fan on your shopping list though, you aren’t going to be able to check them off your list that easily! Though you can still get your hands on these awesome Disney Parks holiday gifts!
Here’s the skinny: you can research the best holiday gifts for your resident Disney Parks fan until you’re blue in the face. Mass-produced t-shirts and ornaments won’t quite do the trick for those of us who want to unwrap a piece of our beloved Parks on Christmas morning.
Disney fans and Disney Parks fans are a very different demographic, and you’ve got to be on the top of your game if you want to impress them this holiday season. So get ready to take to the Parks to get your hands on these items, because these are the best and most sought-after Disney Parks Holiday gifts this season!
Limited Edition Popcorn Buckets
Disneyland Park
Disneyland-goers really have a thing for popcorn buckets. And they really really have a thing for limited edition popcorn buckets! The fact that these adorable Disney Parks popcorn buckets are only available in limited quantities during the Holiday season makes them a highly sought-after item for avid Disneyland and Disney Parks fans! You can find this version in Disneyland Park.
Hollywood Studios
It’s first Holidays in operation, the Aliens are spreading joy and peace through all the (Toy Story) land in 2018! The little green men have taken their adorable likeness and fashioned Santa Alien popcorn buckets- available only in Toy Story Land, and only while supplies last!
Hollywood Studios is THE place to go if you’re in search of the hard-to-snag buckets, because they’re featuring not one, but two this Holiday season! The Pluto popcorn bucket was such a massive hit last year, and I’m thrilled to see his return- this time in a brand-new seasonal sweater! These are also a limited edition item, so if your Christmas list includes must-have merch, you’d better get to Hollywood Studios soon!
Pandora
Banshees
In the far-off land of Pandora lives a species of undomesticated creatures who, despite much effort by the American government infiltration years ago, refuse to be tamed. With jagged teeth and strength that is unmatched, the brave can climb on the back of one of these colorfully terrifying creatures aboard “Flight of Passage”.
If the Banshees’ sheer power- or the attractions’ unbelievably advance technology- has left you insatiably inspired, head straight to Wind Traders! You can pick up one of your own interactive Banshees to take home- but you can only get them right here!
The interactive toys sit on the owners’ shoulder and move, make noise, and ultimately act like a tiny version of a real-life Banshee! Well, minus the vicious attacks, of course. The Banshees were recognized by the International Association of Amusement Parks and Attractions (IAAPA) as the Judges’ Choice for Games and Merchandise Excellence, so to say they’re a hot item is an understatement!
Trader Sam’s Grog Grotto
Limited Edition Tiki Mug
Look, if you’re trying to please a Disney fanatic with a gift from the Parks this Holiday season, you almost can’t go wrong with any ‘limited edition’ merchandise that’s seasonally specific. Emphasis on ‘almost’. In my early days of collecting, I’ve picked up many limited edition Vinylmations and Pins assuming they’d be a collectors’ item someday…to have been proven very wrong….
You have to have some kind of knowledge base before you start blindly shopping around, and one thing you definitely can’t go wrong with is any and all limited edition cups from Trader Sam’s. This Holiday season, the rollicking tiki-themed bar is offering these Christmas-y elephant souvenir cups (for purchase) to anyone who buys the corresponding cocktail.
If you want to get your hands on one of these, do yourself a favor and heed this advice: do not wait. I know for a fact how quickly Trader Sam’s limited edition mugs sell out, so don’t wait on Santa to deliver yours on Christmas Day- get there now!
