We know that your closet is probably full of Disney-themed clothing and accessories. But, once Disney branched into kitchen items, it was game over for us! Now, we’ve got themed mugs, baking utensils, cooking items, and more at our fingertips that are perfect for all your creations at home.

Kitchenware Items

But, we might be looking to do a little Spring Cleaning in our cupboards, if it means we get to take these 10 extremely unique Disney Mugs home with us!

Disney and Pixar pair together to make incredible works of art as animations come to life with beautiful stories. Ahead of the beginning of Incredibles 2, the Bao short showed the journey of a mom and her child told through the bao she would make at home. And, you can make some tea to go along with your homemade bao with the Bao Figural Mug!

Bao Mug

The adorable smiling mug comes with a lid, so you can make sure your drink stays hot or cold as you’re cooking up a storm in the kitchen. Who can resist those pinchable cheeks for $22.99?!

We’re counting down the WEEKS until Avengers Campus has its official grand opening in Disney California Adventure this June. In the meantime, though, we’ve been keeping up with all the recent Marvel news with details about Captain Marvel 2, Black Panther 2, Eternals, Fantastic Four, and Guardians of the Galaxy, Vol. 3! While you might have to wait a few more weeks to explore the newest Marvel land in Disneyland or watch the next Guardians film, you can take home the Groot Figural Mug instead!

The mug is inspired by the Baby Groot character, who has danced his way into our hearts with his love of ’80s music! And, we’re sure that this mug could be a part of plenty of parties in your home for $19.99.

Who Knew Action Figures Could Make Us Excited for Disney/Pixar’s Next Movie?!

AMC Disney Springs

We’ve already been counting down the days until Cruella and Black Widow, and now we’re getting even MORE excited for the next Pixar flick thanks to an upcoming line of action figures from Mattel! 

Disney and Pixar always hit it out of the park with their movies. Just ask the Oscars! 

Soul Shirt

Last year, we embarked on a brotherly journey with Onward, and we got jazzy with Soul. Now we’re eagerly awaiting Luca, set to debut for FREE on Disney+ in June!

©Disney/Pixar

As if the movie trailers weren’t making us excited enough, now we have NEW action figures to look forward to too!

©Mattel

Courtesy of the action figure masterminds at Mattel, the forthcoming collection features different toys and sets inspired by the aquatic adventure film! 

©Mattel

Items include action figures of Luca’s main characters, Luca and Alberto, as their sea creature personas (spoiler alert: they’re sea creatures), along with fish, crabs, and other nautical accompaniments. 

©Mattel

Other sets feature the duo as their land-dwelling characters, along with accessories like scooters and telescopes.

It’s been a while since we checked in on construction in the center of EPCOT, which will soon be known as the World Celebration neighborhood. What was previously Innoventions East, Electric Umbrella, and MouseGear will eventually be Creations Shop, Club Cool, a Starbucks location plus bakery, and an unnamed quick-service restaurant.

7 Changes We Saw at Walt Disney World This Week

Our in-parks team is in Walt Disney World theme parks every day recording wait times, trying food, soaking in the atmosphere, and looking for any changes that might impact your vacation. Here’s the changes that stood out to us this week.

 

Mira, Royal Detective

We were so excited to see Mira, Royal Detective, joining the Disney Junior character cavalcade this week at Disney’s Hollywood Studios. Hailing from the kingdom of Jaipur, Mira travels around to help solve problems with her trusty mongoose sidekicks Mikku and Chikku.

Halcyon Model

As a special surprise for May the 4th, over at Walt Disney Presents at Disney’s Hollywood Studios, a model of the Halcyon (aka the Galactic Starcruiser hotel) is now on display.

New Wishables

Also on May the 4th, a new series of Star Wars Wishables was released throughout Walt Disney World.

Reopening of Merchandise Shops

Two shops reopened at Walt Disney World this week — the outside shopping area at EPCOT’s China pavilion and the Beverly Sunset Boutique/Reel Vogue shops at Disney’s Hollywood Studios.

Gelateria Toscana Opened

Over at EPCOT, Gelateria Toscana opened, featuring a variety of amazingly tasty treats to help you keep your cool this summer. You can see our review here.

Facial Recognition Test Gone

Disney has removed the facial recognition test that was being used at an entrance tapstyle at Magic Kingdom. No word yet if they will be implementing changes and bringing it back on a larger scale in the future.

Menu Boards Replaced at Friar’s Nook

Along with the move to mobile ordering, Friar’s Nook also received an upgrade with new in-person menu boards this week. We noticed that there are Disney Dining Plan icons the new board, however it’s too early to speculate when the Disney Dining Plan will return.

What do you think of this week’s changes at Walt Disney World? Let us know in the comments!

No One Deserves to Be Lonely in Disney World. Not Even Balloons.

When it comes to sharing stories from Disney World, 99.9% of those stories are pure joy and magic! But every once in a while, something TRAGIC happens. 

Cinderella Castle

No one should be forgotten in Disney World. Not even a balloon. You hate to see it. 

We’re not sure why, but there’s something so heartbreaking about finding discarded Disney snacks and souvenirs around the parks. Remember that time we found a wholly UNEATEN Mickey Pretzel, left behind like yesterday’s news? We still haven’t recovered. 

Abandoned Mickey Pretzel

And speaking of Mickey-shaped things that break our hearts, we got all weepy about a pair of forgotten Mickey balloons in EPCOT recently! So many questions, not enough answers. 

Poor balloons 🙁

It pains us to say it, but the lonely balloon saga continued this weekend in Magic Kingdom. We were exploring the parks, enjoying an otherwise lovely day and reuniting with a classic Storybook Circus character, when we came to a screeching halt in Tomorrowland. There they were: two more forgotten balloons. Anchored together and brushed aside. OW. 

More lonely balloons

At least they have each other, right? Even though balloons don’t have eyes, these two totally seem like they’re gazing at one another. It’s actually quite beautiful when you think about it that way! 

They’ll always have each other

Yeah, let’s go with that. These balloons weren’t forgotten. They’ve run off together to honeymoon in Disney World! (At least…that’s what we’re telling ourselves).

Okay Disney, Why Can’t We Have These Balloons Year Round?!

Can You Guess Which Ride Had the LONGEST Wait in Each Disney World Park This Week?

Heading to Disney World soon? Wondering what the wait times have been for your favorite attractions have been lately? Don’t worry — we’ve got you covered!!

Such a Beautiful View!

Each week, we take a look at the average wait times for ALL of Disney World’s rides and bring that info to you! And now we’re breaking down this week’s wait times. Can you guess what ride at each park had the longest wait time this week? Make your guesses right now before you read on and then let us know in the comments how many you got right.

Alright, let’s dive in!

Magic Kingdom

No surprise here — over at Magic Kingdom the ride with the longest wait time (once again) was Splash Mountain with an average 62 minute wait this week. Other rides with longer wait times in Magic Kingdom this week include Seven Dwarfs Mine Train with an average 44 minute wait, Jungle Cruise with a 36 minute wait on average, and Space Mountain with an average 33 minute wait.

Splash Mountain Wins Again!

In the 20-minute range, we had rides like Pirates of the Caribbean with an average wait time of 29 minutes, Big Thunder Mountain Railroad at 26 minutes, Peter Pan’s Flight at 26 minutes as well, Astro Orbiter at 23 minutes, the Tomorrowland Transit Authority PeopleMover at 23 minutes, Mickey’s PhilharMagic at 22 minutesMany Adventures of Winnie the Pooh at 21 minutes, and “it’s a small world” at 21 minutes.

Pirates of the Caribbean

What rides had a shorter wait on average though, like closer to the teens? Well, this week Buzz Lightyear’s Space Ranger Spin had an average wait time of 18 minutes. We also had Prince Charming Regal Carrousel at 18 minutesTom Sawyer Island at 17 minutesHaunted Mansion at 16 minutesDumbo the Flying Elephant at 13 minutes, Under the Sea – Journey of the Little Mermaid at 13 minutesTomorrowland Speedway at 12 minutes, and Country Bear Jamboree, Mad Tea Party, and the Magic Carpets of Aladdin all tied at 11 minutes.

Time for a Spin!

Looking for rides with even SHORTER wait times? Barnstormer featuring the Great Goofini had an average wait time of 9 minutes this week, while the Carousel of Progress was at 8 minutesLiberty Square Riverboat at 3 minutes, and Enchanted Tiki Room and Swiss Family Robinson Treehouse tied with 0 minute waits.

Finally, we end our wait times trip at Disney’s Hollywood Studios. What do you think had the longest average wait time this week? The adorable Mickey & Minnie’s Runaway Railway? Twilight Zone Tower of Terror? Maybe Millennium Falcon: Smugglers Run?

Well if you guessed any of those you’d actually be…WRONG! The ride with the longest wait time in Hollywood Studios this week was (once again) Slinky Dog Dash with an average wait time of 59 minutes.

And finally, Walt Disney Presents was at the bottom end of the list with a 15 minute wait. Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance doesn’t get averaged into the wait times since it uses the Boarding Group system. Just be sure you read all the latest updates so you can give yourself the best chance possible to get a boarding group!

Rise of the Resistance is a pretty long ride!

And that’s our look at wait times this week. Overall, our leaderboard has stayed generally the same with Splash Mountain, Test Track, Slinky Dog Dash, and Flight of Passage leading the way as being the rides with the longest wait times in each park.

Only a few rides were over the 60 minute mark this week in terms of average wait times, but things could change as summer crowds arrive. We’ll keep an eye out for more updates and let you know what we see in terms of crowd levels and wait times in the upcoming months!
