We can modify ours until the 15th May? I wonder will we get them or just miss?

Part of me is hoping we cant so I'll save $75, but mostly I just want the fox and the hound one! 😁😁😁

Yes UK Guests can upgrade there magic bands , as stated should be available as an option on MDE from 15th May.

As usual UK guest's will collect on check in to their resort hotel.

I think it's a good idea even if it is a Disney money making scheme as the last few years we've bought custom ones anyway as have got bored with the plain colored ones.

Yes, anyone staying onsite will be able to pay to upgrade the normal MagicBand to a fancy one, once the option becomes available.

UK guests will have to pick the MagicBands up when they check in. They can't get them delivered to their home like Americans can. That's the only difference.

There's a bit of information of the Disney Parks Blog page:

disneyparks.disney.go/bl...-world-resort/

"Your credit card will be charged when you place your order. Once personalized, upgraded MagicBands cannot be canceled, returned, refunded or exchanged, even if the hotel reservation is canceled... "

Looks like you'll need to supply a credit card and the money will be taken out as soon as you order the upgraded MagicBand.

One of the comments from the blog says that this option will only be available for new bookings from 15th - is this true or just a rumour does anyone know?

I would be surprised if they stopped existing bookings from upgrading their bands.

It’s a rumour from someone allegedly phoning Disney and asking them.

Like the greater customisation, though I reckon I'll stick with a solid colour myself... may shout a design for the missus and DD...

There's a Marvel Black Widow one on the Disney Store - I do hope that's still around and included in the options for our August '20 trip; she's the (not so) little one's favourite character Would be a nicer surprise us having it at pick up than buying it in the parks.
