If you missed out on getting an ECTO-1 popcorn bucket at AMC Theatres when you saw “Ghostbusters: Afterlife,” we’ve got some good news for you! The movie theater chain is now offering the item via their online store, as well as other merchandise.
When the item was announced this morning around 10am (PST), the online store immediately crashed. But, the virtual waiting queue seems to be working. Average wait times are about 2-5 minutes.
The bucket features functioning alarm lights, and holds upwards of 130 oz. of popcorn! It retails for $34.99, and can be purchased here.
Other items include t-shirts, hats, and plush figures!
“Ghostbusters: Afterlife” is currently in theaters.

Over the past 10 years, she’s built a reputation at conventions across the globe as a cosplayer (occasionally), photographer (constantly), panelist and moderator (mostly), and reporter (always).
