Two new Limited Edition MagicBands have launched today for the release of the new movie Star Wars: The Last Jedi. You’ll be able to find these throughout the Walt Disney World resort and online. There will only be 4000 of each Limited Edition band, and these should make special effects at touch points, at least in Hollywood Studios (but I only have a video for the Rey/Kylo band, not the First Order band). They are $32.99 each.
The first band is a light side / dark side band, featuring Rey and Kylo Ren. The barcode SKU for this item is 400020639042.
The second band is a First Order dark side band featuring one of the Praetorian Guard characters from the new movie. The barcode SKU for this item is 400020555397.
I just got mine. They are fantastic looking. They have good availability in Magic Kingdom.
Happen to notice where the lights/sounds activate at?
I think only at hollywood studios the effects work at. My epcot 35 ones only work at epcot as far as sound and effects.
I have the first order one and didn’t get any special touchpoints at DHS
Nothing yet, but hoping they will do something cool for the event tonight!
Hi All,
We received some new information regarding special lights and effects from a magicband IT person yesterday. Disney has been updating and fixing bugs in their system (MDE & Parks). Most fast pass touch points and fast pass signup kiosks should be working now. Entrances are for the most part still down. However, Disney is aware of the issues and until it has been completely fixed service of special effects could be intermittent. We also found out it could take up to about 3-4 days once you link a band to your MDE account for the effects to work at the park. Hope this info helps.
Thanks for the info
Thanks for the info! My purple Pandora magic band has never done the special effects and I’m always disappointed!
Got the light/dark side one! Looks amazing and I love the white. Currently no effects at Magic Kingdom
Where can I find these bands at Hollywood Studios?
They can be purchased at The Dark Room, which about 50 feet past the entry point on the right, at the start of Hollywood Blvd.
Plan on purchasing one today and visiting Hollywood Studios today or tomorrow to check.
No sound effects for me so far at any Park, even Star Tours. Kinda sad and hoping they fix this before I leave
Just used mine for a Tower of Terror fastpass. The icon lights up red and then blue and I believe you can hear lightsabers swinging.
Does anyone know which touch points this works at? I’ve seen a few videos of the band working, but can’t tell location.
Any update on if the First Order band makes sights and sounds?
Can i still buy this somewhere?
Both are out of stock. The only place is eBay now.
Hi all where can I purchase a star wars l limited edition first order magic band and other star wars limited edition magic bands?
