Topps Disneyland 70th Anniversary Card #104 - Churro Purple Glitter Foil Hidden Mickey Magic
Hey there, Disney card collectors! 🎆
Can you smell that? The warm cinnamon sugar, the golden fried dough, the sweet promise of pure Disneyland happiness? That's right - we're talking about the most iconic snack in all the parks, and today I'm absolutely thrilled to share the Topps Disneyland 70th Anniversary Card #104 featuring everyone's favorite treat: the Churro! But this isn't just any churro card, friends. This is the stunning Purple Glitter Foil Hidden Mickey parallel, and let me tell you, it's as delicious for your collection as the real thing is for your taste buds.
A Snack Time Icon Gets the Purple Glitter Treatment
This card is part of the beloved Snack Time subset from the Topps Disneyland 70th Anniversary collection, celebrating all those yummy bites that make a park day complete. The churro has been a Disneyland staple since the park's earliest days, and seeing it immortalized in purple glitter foil is just perfection. The foil catches the light in the most magical way, with that signature Disneyland shimmer that reminds me of walking down Main Street at dusk when all the lights start twinkling.
The purple glitter foil gives this card a premium, almost regal quality. It's like the churro is wearing its Sunday best! The foil treatment makes every detail pop - from the ridges of the fried dough to the sparkle of cinnamon sugar. And because this is a Hidden Mickey parallel, you know there's extra magic tucked into the design. I spent a good five minutes hunting for those three circles when I first pulled this beauty, and finding them felt like discovering a secret on the Matterhorn.
Nothing says "I'm at Disneyland" quite like clutching a warm churro while watching the fireworks paint the sky above Sleeping Beauty Castle.
Parallel Sets and Hidden Mickey Magic
As a Hidden Mickey parallel from the Purple Glitter Foil subset, this card is significantly harder to find than the base Snack Time cards. Topps Disneyland 70th Anniversary has given us some absolutely gorgeous parallel variations, and the Purple Glitter Foil series is among my favorites. These parallels add layers of rarity and beauty to the already wonderful base set, making cards like this churro a true collector's prize.
The Hidden Mickey element is what really seals the deal for me. It connects directly to that park tradition we all love - spotting Hidden Mickeys throughout Disneyland. Whether you're waiting in line for Pirates or exploring the queue for Indiana Jones, those three circles are always hiding somewhere. This parallel brings that same sense of discovery to your card collection.
My Churro Card Story
I remember getting my first Disneyland churro when I was seven years old, standing near the Matterhorn with my family. My dad handed it to me right before we went on the Storybook Land Canal Boats, and I thought it was the most magical thing I'd ever tasted. Now, every time I'm at the parks, I have to grab one - it's tradition. There's something about that crunchy-on-the-outside, soft-on-the-inside perfection covered in cinnamon sugar that just tastes like childhood and happiness.
When I saw this Purple Glitter Foil Hidden Mickey parallel of card #104, all those warm churro memories came flooding back. I actually squealed a little (okay, a lot) when I realized I had pulled it from a pack. This card captures not just what a churro looks like, but what it feels like to be at Disneyland with that sweet treat in your hand.
Who Needs This Card?
If you're building the complete Topps Disneyland 70th Anniversary set, you absolutely need this parallel. The Hidden Mickey variations are essential for serious collectors who want every version of every card. But even if you're not chasing the rainbow, this card has special appeal for anyone who loves the Snack Time subset, parallel collectors who appreciate the premium foil treatments, or Disney Parks fans who have their own churro traditions.
This card would also make a perfect gift for that friend who always insists on stopping for churros before getting in line for Space Mountain. You know the one!
Displaying Your Churro Magic
A card this special deserves special treatment. I'd recommend a good quality top loader or magnetic one-touch holder to protect that beautiful purple glitter foil. The foil can be susceptible to fingerprints and scratches, so handle with care! If you're displaying it in a binder, make sure to use archival-quality pages. I keep mine in a section dedicated to Snack Time cards, right next to my Mickey Premium Ice Cream Bar and Dole Whip cards. It's like a whole page of delicious park memories.
Some collectors even frame their favorite parallels, and this churro would look absolutely stunning matted alongside some vintage Disneyland churro cart photos or paired with an actual paper churro wrapper from the park (if you saved one!). Get creative with your display - your collection should tell your Disney story.
The App Question
This particular Purple Glitter Foil Hidden Mickey parallel is still on my need list in the Collectiblz app. I've been hunting for it since the Disneyland 70th Anniversary series dropped, and I know exactly which trader I need to connect with at the next card show. The app has been incredibly helpful for tracking which Snack Time parallels I still need - there are so many beautiful variations in this anniversary set that it's easy to lose track without a good organizational system. If you're collecting this set, I definitely recommend using Collectiblz to keep tabs on your progress. Nothing beats the satisfaction of marking a tough parallel as "Have" after finally tracking it down!
Whether you're team churro or team Dole Whip (why not both?), this Topps Disneyland 70th Anniversary Card #104 Purple Glitter Foil Hidden Mickey parallel is a must-have for your collection. It's sweet, it's sparkly, and it's pure Disneyland magic in card form.
Happy collecting, and may all your packs contain Hidden Mickey parallels!
💜 Tilly
