That is what we did last night! Never seen that many designs in all our trips!I just went on MDE to see if there was anything new, and theres a bunch on their I haven’t seen before. grab’em before they are gone!
Yup! The older magicbands (version 1) were all one piece, the newer ones (version 2) are the ones with the puck.Okay, I'm a Disneylander, so I am not familiar with Magic Bands. Coming in November. Are all of these Magic Band 2 versions? My daughter wants to get a magic keeper but wants to make sure it will fit.
Hope this isn't a stupid question. Thanks,
I've had bands where the battery only lasted about 2 years... There is no way to test the battery. The only way to know is to go on a ride that auto links pictures (like Pirates or Seven Dwarfs) and see what happens.Thank you, it’s the battery life that I was wondering about. I have a slew of MagicBands from past trips. The other ones are almost 3 years old or older. I haven’t stayed off property in about 10 years when my daughter was on a high school band trip and I was a chaperone.
Great idea, its always good to have an extra MB with you - just incase. We do the same thing - on the backpack that accompanies us to the park, we have our extra pucks in Magic Keepers - the ones with the carabiner - attached to our backpack. It helps to know that if you lose the MB that you are wearing, at least you have another one with you. I say this because I have lost mine before, it came off in the Yacht Club and I didn't notice until we were at the International Gateway - going into Epcot. So walked the whole way back and thank goodness a CM had found it and I was able to get it back.I've had bands where the battery only lasted about 2 years... There is no way to test the battery.

So when using older graphic bands (like my MK45 Tiki, or Pandora opening) that make special effects at the tap styles, I also keep an icon/puck from a new solid color band (which is also linked to me in MDE) in a magic keeper attached to my bag or belt loop. (I replace the lanyard clip with a 2" carabiner) That way I get the best of both... effects when tapping the older special band, and long range stuff.
sure, updated with today's MagicBands (51); still no holiday MagicBands if anyone was looking for those
three changes ...
- everything is now in alphabetical order instead of grouped by price (too much to manage)
- the second view of the MagicBand has been added if it's available
- prices reflect 2021+ arrival (only change is the basic colored MagicBands are 5 USD instead of free, everything else seems to be the same)
It's annoying that they don't provide both sides for all the bands! I want to Fantasmic! MB but want to see the other side before buying...Thanks for the updates - especially adding the second view of the MB's! I wish they would add them all. I've found a few second side views by googling, but not all of them grrr...
