Yea - don't have enough of those magic bands! And some of these will be tempting to add to the collection! Discounted pricing? Or another $10 we wouldn't have spent otherwise!?!
I think I agree with the general thoughts. These are cute, and I'm glad there is a discount … one of the reasons I've avoided buying the cool MB's in the past is because I didn't want to pay full price for something I could get for "free", but at the reduced price … Disney just might get my $$.
Do we know when these will be available? I don't see the options for my August trip yet.
I'm not a fan of the bands in general, which is why I have a fob for my disk. Are the disks for the specialized bands also graphic, or just plain?
They are just a solid color, but many of them are non-standard colors.Quote:

As of about 6am (Eastern) this morning - 5/20 - the new Premium band option is available. It's unstable, i.e. glitchy, -at the moment, but it's there. There is an interesting selection of Premium bands available. FYI , the second wave of the solid colors (black, white, teal, millenial pink, etc.) are NOT included.

Wow! These are selling fast!
I looked today at work, and saw a few that I liked, but they aren't there anymore this evening. I'm sure they will come back in stock, but crazy!
