This might be one of the cutest movie theater collectibles we’ve seen in a while.

Yoshi!

With the release of The Super Mario Galaxy Movie, theaters like Cinemark are going all-in on themed merchandise—and the Yoshi Popcorn Bucket is easily the standout. Here’s a closer look at what you’re getting (and whether it’s worth grabbing).

The Yoshi Popcorn Bucket has officially arrived at theaters for The Super Mario Galaxy Movie, and it’s quickly becoming one of the most talked-about collectibles tied to the film’s release.

The bucket is designed as a full 3D figure of Yoshi, sitting and holding a Yoshi Egg-shaped bowl, which is where your popcorn goes. It’s a clever design that feels both functional and highly display-worthy.

From the details alone—bright green coloring, oversized eyes, and the signature red shell—it’s instantly recognizable and feels like it was pulled straight from the game.

It also holds approximately 105 ounces of popcorn, making it one of the larger theater buckets currently available.

Price

Here’s where things get a little less clear—but we do have a solid expectation:

  • Official pricing at Cinemark is $49.95, which comes with a large popcorn (you can get it separately in a box, along with a tab for a free refill the same day)
  • Similar theater collectibles are also priced around $50

That puts it right in line with premium popcorn buckets released for other major films.

Where to Get It

The Yoshi bucket is not exclusive to one chain, but you can find it at:

  • Cinemark
  • AMC Theatres
  • Regal Cinemas
  • Other participating theater chains

It officially launched alongside the film on April 1, 2026, and is available while supplies last—which likely won’t be long given demand.

Other Super Mario Galaxy Movie Souvenirs at Cinemark

Cinemark didn’t stop at just one item—this is actually one of the largest theater merch drops we’ve seen for a movie release.

Other items in the collection include:

  • LED Light-Up Luma Star Popcorn Bucket
  • Bowser’s Cauldron container
  • Super Ticket bundle (approx. $35) with exclusive collectibles
  • Additional drink cups, tins, and themed containers

This lineup makes the Yoshi bucket part of a much bigger collectible series, not just a standalone item.

If you’re a fan of Super Mario (or just love unique popcorn buckets), this is an easy win.

The design is fun, practical, and display-worthy, which isn’t always the case with theater collectibles. And with Yoshi finally making a big-screen appearance, this feels like one of those items that could become a fan-favorite long after the movie leaves theaters.

That said, the expected ~$50 price point does make it more of a collector’s item than a casual purchase. But if you’re already planning to see The Super Mario Galaxy Movie, this might be the souvenir that steals the show.
