Disney4me Posted April 12, 2021 Report Posted April 12, 2021 We’re back with the new scoop from many of Disney World’s resorts! Pop Century Resort There have been a lot of updates since we last visited, and we found some surprising changes! A ton of new merch, a few (not-so-good-looking) construction updates, and a wait time at…a pool? Let’s dive in! Pop Century Resort Merchandise Updates Everything Pop Shopping & Dining We found some new merchandise in Everything Pop at Pop Century Resort! Everything POP We had recently spotted this ice cream scoop at Disneyland, and we found it here too for $14.99! We love the colorful sprinkles in the handle. Perfect for Ice Cream Parties! We also spotted the Dalmatian Big Feet Plush, and we got a little excited about the upcoming Cruella movie! Dalmatian Plush Look at those big paws!

We’ve been noticing a mysterious ketchup imposter in many locations… Hmm you’re not Heinz …including at Everything Pop! We first discovered this swap at Hollywood Studios, and it looks like the Red Gold brand might be around while Disney awaits more shipments from Heinz. This ketchup looks like it’s here to stay! We’ll keep an eye out for when Heinz makes a reappearance! Has the Ketchup Crisis Reached Disney World? Here’s What We’re Seeing! Art of Animation Resort Merchandise Updates Ink & Paint On our most recent visit to Ink & Paint, we spotted the Pooh and friends nuiMOs hanging out on the shelves! Disney nuIMOs This honey-loving bear is available for $17.99… Winnie the Pooh nuiMOs …along with some of his friends! Tigger nuIMOs These pricey and posable mini plushes are also available online! How Cute Are They! Several new Inside Out pins were available for $9.99, featuring the positively precious Joy… Always happy! ….perpetually down Sadness… Sad as always …and the very relatable Anger! Because honestly, same. Hanger gets the best of us. Nothing worse than being hangry in Disney World! We also saw the new treat collection, Snacks with Character, pop up! These Snacks Have Got Character These have some healthier snack options, such as corn puffs, a seed and fruit mix, and rice crisps. Snack Options These Snacks with Character can be found throughout other Disney World locations as well! Want to see more nuiMOs plush options? Click here! Caribbean Beach Resort Merchandise Updates Calypso Trading Post The totally awesome Guardians of the Galaxy Wishables have found a new home on the shelves at Calypso Trading Post! Guardians Wishables! We found the increased price on reusable shopping bags at this location as well. New prices These bags have been going through a major price identity crisis! Can This Disney World Price Increase Make Up Its Mind?! Caribbean Beach Resort Construction Updates While we were wandering around, we noticed that a few buildings were getting a new paint job! The vibrant colors are a huge draw of Caribbean Beach, which means a lot of maintenance to keep them that way, but this is something to keep in mind if you are visiting soon! Caribbean Beach Repainting And that’s everything from Caribbean Beach! Disney Skyliner Was Temporarily Halted Due to Weather! Contemporary Resort Construction Updates We’re having trouble keeping track of all of the construction happening around Disney World, and the Contemporary is the latest to join the club! The resort has begun its Main Tower guest room refurbishment, and the inside looked VERY different when we visited. The construction has begun! Yeah. It’s not the prettiest view. Construction scrim is currently covering most hallways on one side of the building. When we visited, we also noticed a bunch of construction noise! Definitely not the relaxing feel you’re going for during vacation. Hello, scrims! If you are planning on staying at the Contemporary Resort in the next few months, definitely keep this construction in mind! Why You May Want to Avoid Chef Mickey’s in Disney World Right Now! Polynesian Village Resort Construction Updates We’ve been tracking a lot of construction happening next door at Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort! Polynesian Construction Fence Recently, we spotted some work happening on the signature pillars on the roof of the Great Ceremonial House. Pillar Work We’ll keep reporting on all of the work happening as the resort receives its Moana makeover! FIRST Look at the Moana-themed Rooms Coming to Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort Coronado Springs Resort Merchandise Updates Panchito’s Gifts and Sundries Over at Panchito’s shop, we noticed a new puzzle for sale! Next rainy day activity! This 1000 piece Play in the Park puzzle showcases some of the most popular attractions at Disney World! Coronado Springs Resort Food Updates Rix Sports Bar and Grill Rix Sports Bar and Grill is a casual table-service restaurant in the older section of Coronado Springs. This spot is typically overlooked, but we’ve found some seriously yummy eats at this forgotten joint! And now, it’s even easier to nosh on those eats! Rix Sports Bar We recently saw that Rix is offering Mobile Order take-out! Mobile Order Take Out is Now Available! This is a different Mobile Order than we’re used to; Rix is utilizing OpenTable! You can put in a takeout order through the OpenTable app or their website. OpenTable takeout confirmation We love any way that makes getting food easier! Coronado Springs General Updates Also at Coronado Springs, we noticed that several tables, chairs, and desks were set up inside the resort’s original lobby! Several large conference-style tables have been added, as well as smaller desks along the sides. Original Lobby Next to the Dig Site Pool, we noticed that the net was removed from the volleyball court, but several chairs were added for sunbathing. No more net And speaking of the Dig Site Pool, we found an unexpected wait on our recent visit! Dig Site Pool At the front entrance of the pool, a sign was out stating that the pool was closed. The pool hit capacity! Turns out, the Dig Site had hit capacity! A virtual wait-list was set up, with a separate area to check in. Dig Site Capacity You will receive a text message when it’s time for you to return to the pool. During our visit, the wait was only about twenty minutes long. We were definitely not expecting to find a wait here! Check out which Disney World pool is getting refurbished All-Star Movies Resort Merchandise Updates Donald’s Double Feature At Donald’s Double Feature at the recently reopened All-Star Movies Resort, we also found the Guardians of the Galaxy Wishables! Guardians of the Galaxy Wishables All-Star Movies Food Updates Silver Screen Spirits Pool Bar The pool bar has also reopened at All-Star Movies, and we took a peek at the menu! They have several drink options available, including frozen beverages, sangria, and wine. Pool Bar Menu They also have a large beer menu available in draft, bottles, and cans!
