Imagine sipping your morning coffee from a Starbucks tumbler that’s not just any tumbler—it’s a piece of Disneyland history, customized by you to celebrate the park’s 70th anniversary. But here’s where it gets exciting: for a limited time at Downtown Disney, you can unleash your creativity and design a tumbler that’s as unique as your love for the Happiest Place on Earth. And this is the part most people miss—it’s not just about picking a color; it’s about crafting a keepsake that tells your Disney story.
During a recent stroll through Downtown Disney, we stumbled upon a hidden gem: the ‘Create Your Own Tumbler’ experience at the Disney Home store, nestled near the heart of the shopping district. This isn’t your average Starbucks offering—it’s a celebration of Disneyland’s 70th anniversary, complete with exclusive designs that pay homage to the park’s iconic landmarks and characters. But here’s the controversial part: with a price tag of $59.99 per tumbler, is it a must-have collectible or a splurge for die-hard fans? We’ll let you decide.
Here’s how it works: you start by choosing from six stunning tumbler designs, each with its own personality. The gold tumbler sparkles with a nod to the classic Disneyland sign and the timeless phrase, ‘The Happiest Place on Earth,’ while the chrome tumbler features a sleek map of the park that shimmers under the right light. For a bold statement, the blue tumbler showcases Mickey waving a pennant that trails red stars, and the peach tumbler brings Tinkerbell to life with a swirl of pixie dust. The teal tumbler highlights the original Disneyland logo, and the confetti tumbler screams celebration with its multicolored, dotted design. But here’s where it gets even more fun: you can mix and match Mickey-ear-shaped lids and colorful straws to create a tumbler that’s truly yours.
Speaking of customization, the lids come in matching colors—gold, chrome, blue, peach, teal, and light red—so you can either coordinate or clash, depending on your style. Straws are available in dark blue, peach, and a striped pattern that ties the whole collection together. With six tumbler bodies, six lids, and three straws, the math says you can create 120 unique combinations. But wait, there’s more: for an extra $12.99, you can add a ‘Surprise Silicone Topper,’ a mystery collectible featuring Disneyland 70th designs or a red-lidded Starbucks cup. It’s like a blind bag for Disney adults—but is it worth the gamble?
Now, let’s talk controversy. At $59.99 for the tumbler and an additional $12.99 for a topper, this isn’t a cheap souvenir. Is it a brilliant way to commemorate Disneyland’s milestone, or is it priced for the most dedicated collectors? And while the customization options are impressive, some might argue that 120 combinations aren’t enough for true creativity. What do you think? Is this a must-do experience, or will you pass on the tumbler trend?
