The popcorn bucket in question is modeled after the caped crusaders’ Bat-Signal, which shines high in the sky to indicate when Batman is prowling the streets of Gotham or when Jim Gordan and the LAPD require his aid.
Moreover, the popcorn tin, which costs $34.99 USD, lights up and projects the classic Batman yellow and black logo onto roofs and walls, depending on how you angle it.
Batman fans have been praising the design and details of this new popcorn bucket on social media.
One X usercommented, “These custom buckets are actually so nice,” whileanother addedthat the Batman tin is “collectible AF.”
A third evenadmitted, “Now, this is the bucket I would spend money on.”
However, others did note the potential problems a popcorn bucket with a giant Bat-Signal light function could cause in theatres; another X userexpressed, “This is gonna cause an unspeakable problem I can sense it.”
