I haven't missed someone posting this, yeah? Was waiting for something more than a Facebook post by Mouseplanet to say anything. OC Register finally shared something:
https://www.ocregister.com/2019/01/...buckets-pay-tribute-to-mickeys-90th-birthday/
No details beyond a new AP bucket is coming (no cost, date, range, etc) along with a couple other buckets for general public. Mouseplanet claims February. This article says "later this month" specifically on the AP bucket image. The official AP Facebook page denies everything because "no official announcement has been made". My hope is next weekend we might see a release, but I'm not holding my breath.
I'm disappointed it's another shaped bucket, though. Not only awkward to carry around, but tend to be bought and sold to collectors rather than only for APs to use for popcorn refills. Not to mention the really long lines they create. But if it's true it's not coming until next month, I'll miss out on it.
I'll update this post when I can dig up some more information.
As an aside, I appreciate this forum so much. People share so much incorrect information on a Facebook group a friend added me to. Not to mention the attitudes are just atrocious. Some seem to be offended by the correct information being shared... Or just lack any reading comprehension. People were actually sending me screenshots of Mouseplanet's post after I commented the conflicting information on release date in that very post they were sending me and the OCR article
