Just saw this posted on DisUnplugged

Has anyone stayed at a Disney resort lately and seen this new design? They kind of look like the ones sold earlier this year, except for the bottom of the mug.

We were there in Feb. and March. In February, we still got the blue YOAMD refillable mugs; in March, we got the new red mugs with your choice of yellow, red or black handles and matching tops. We're stayed Concierge level in three weeks, so I'm not sure we're going to need the mugs, but if it is the new one, we'll be buying them to add to our collection.
I'm including the pictures posted there of the new and the older.

They are both cute but does it seem like they are getting slimmer and slimmer?

Which one is the newer? The ones with the white bottoms or the ones that have the design over the whole cup?

The white bottom ones are older, that's the design we purchased in March. The first picture is the newer one (according to DisUnplugged).

But some posted either over there or over here that each resort was slightly different. I don't see how that would work unless they were totally different. I wouldn't mind if they were resort themed. I'd love a Pop one for my pop.

I also wish that each resort had it's own design.

I'm curious if anyone has purchased the newer version of the What Will You Celebrate mugs. Do they fit in a car's cup holder? The handles look like they come down low, too low to fit in my car cup holder.

That's odd that they would change them so quickly, the YOMD were the same for a few years. I wonder of the new all red ones hold the same as the red w/white bottoms do? I haven't heard they were resort specific.

You're right, those handles do look low.

I wouldn't be surprised if they are changing them every few months so that you can't reuse mugs from a trip earlier in the year.

I miss the unique resort mugs, my morning tea this morning is in a mug I got years ago from the wilderness lodge. It's gotten so much use that most of the design is worn off of it.

I was at POFQ in FEb/March and they had changed over to the new design during that trip -- the "travel mug" style with the stepped bottom in white -- and this was the style we saw all other resort guests using on property with the exception of a few YoaMD mugs seen here and there.

Then in June, I saw the new fully-tapered style and no longer saw the stepped bottom style.

The change in shape was probably something to do with the manufacturer and supply, etc. and did not seem to be something to differentiate between resorts.

Last week we were given the ones with the design over the whole cup. Never saw the ones with the white bottom.

When we were there in June they were selling the white bottom cups, then part way through our trip they brought out the newer ones with the design all the way down.

I was there just two weeks ago and this was the design I got except that my top and handle were orange. It had the colorful red and the white bottom.
