PHOTO - New MagicSlider accessory brings a functioning watch face to MagicBands

[FrostyNaples]

I'm willing to bet more sad grownups will be seen wearing them than children.

Doubtful - they will buy them for sure, but the adults would rather grab their cellphone to check the time.. or their smartwatch.

These are fun for the kids.

My kids wouldn't wear them. But I know some adults who would.

I know some kids who would, and some adults who won't.

Congratulations?

The focus groups told them this is how to start...

Yeah, sticker shock is becoming a bit too frequent out there. I work in pricing (insurance) and realize profit goals need to be met, but at the same time, you aren't going to hit any goals unless you sell product.

Guest spending on both merch and F&B is through the roof quarter after quarter so...

$12.95

I wonder if I could just cut the magical portion out of the existing band and find a way to thread it on to one of my current wrist watche's NATO or ZULU straps?

Might be easier to fit a watch face onto the band that to hack up the band and attach it to a watch.

I think the character ones are maybe $14.95.

This has been an often requested feature that I've seen posted on the forum.

I posted about it in the FP+ forum earlier today. Might want to merge them: http://forums.wdwmagic.com/threads/watch-face-add-on-coming-for-magic-bands.900851/

Over priced for what it is, considering you can get either at a Target or Walmart outside the property for less than what Disney is asking. Watch face not able to go in the correct spot....eh yeah right. Sorry, I will wear my watch as normal.

[Mad Stitch]

Why do I need a watch when I am forever sticking my phone in my face when utilizing MM+?
