A new special Limited Edition 500 MagicBand has been released at the Walt Disney’s Animation Celebration pin event at Epcot today. The event has long since sold out and cost $150 to attend. This band should make special effects at entry touch points, but I’m unsure what those effects are just yet. The price for this band is $32.99 and the barcode SKU is 400020989345. This is one of the lowest Limited Edition MagicBand ever released.
This MagicBand is not available directly from Disney unless you got it from this specific event, but you can buy it from eBay online by clicking this link which will take you right to the product listings.
There is a mistake on the back of the band. There is a comma on the 500, when commas should only be used for numbers in the thousands or more.
The special effects the band makes at the touch point appear to be that of a old-time film strip sound and movement. Thanks to MagicBand Effects for the video:

The comma between the five and the first zero is killin me ?
It’s crazy people are trying to sell it for $100 plus dollars.
It’s not that they are trying, they are selling them at that price. Look at the eBay completed listing. Supply and demand. Some MagicBands sell for much more than that depending on rarity.
You really, really don’t know want to know how much I paid for my 45th anniversary Haunted Mansion band. I jumped it on because it’s the first new one I saw in like the last 2 years or so.
So the only way to buy it (if you didn’t attend the event) is to buy it on eBay? It won’t be at the parks?
Not related to this band, but do you foresee a Food and Wine band being released this year at the festival?
Yes! There will be one. More details soon.
I just bought this band and the effect is not happening in Magic Kingdom can anyone confirm that it is every park that the effect goes at?
