Hi Kelly!
The new
Build-a-Band option has been very popular. You are not alone in your quest for that perfect
MagicBand. I too have been stalking the site regularly trying to score the Disney Vacation Club MagicBand. So far, I have come up empty-handed, or “empty-wristed” might be more accurate. I did see the Thanos MagicBand on the site again this afternoon, so it does come back into the rotation, in case you have luck snagging it.
The
Thanos MagicBand is currently showing as available from the Shop Disney Website, so you could order one for your husband that way. You would have to pay full retail price, however, and it would be shipped separately from your resort MagicBand shipment. Maybe it would be fun to tell him you just couldn’t get Thanos for him, then surprise him with the MagicBand ordered from Shop Disney? Snap your fingers and pull the box out from behind your back!
While the Build-a-Band secured through your Walt Disney World Resort reservation will already be linked to the party member, if you purchase from Shop Disney you will need to link your band to your My Disney Experience Account yourself. It is a pretty easy process and I have done it myself on the
My Disney Experience Mobile App while walking through the parks. Just be sure to link it before your trip so you are ready to enjoy the magic as soon as you arrive!
Sending you pixie dust for that perfect MagicBand, Kelly. Good Luck!
