I'm pretty sure Star Wars is getting 3 playsets. Two of which will definitely be for the Original Trilogy & Rebels. If The Force Awakens will get one remains to be seen, but I could see the Prequels getting a playset if Lucasfilms doesn't want to show their hand for Disney Infinity 3.0 just yet.

As someone who spent Wayy too much on 2.0 they need massive changes for me to come back.
More players (why I can't play 1.0 playssets is rediculous ) , better toy mode which is just boring and being able to use all figured in any playset .
Waste of time buying new ones because it's just boring toy box levels .

I wouldn't hold your breath on that. They've made two games and have thus far not created a compelling game in practice, imo.
On paper, the idea sounds great which is why my kids have both games and quite a few of the characters. The reality is that they play with the figures on their own far more than they ever boot up the games. The same can't be said for Skylanders at least, where the games are pretty good for the most part.

But your tag says you love it!
They must be betting big on Inside Out. Mulan's gonna make a man out of you. I wonder if they're going to bet a lot on SON OF FLYNN this go round
Didn't the Marvel figures sell like hotcakes?

Also wait why the hell are we getting another Mickey? He was first, then 2.0 brought Donald, 3.0 is clearly Goofy's turn.
Anyone else waiting for Disney Infinity for Disney's clasic films of the 40s and 50s? Would love some Peter Pan and Pinocchio. Guess they'd rather market their new stuff though.
1 was Pixar and Johnny Depp Edition. 2 is Marvel Edition. This one seems a bit all over the place. Just go for the classic films, those are timeless and would make great playsets IMO.

I understand that they want to stretch this series for as long as possible (They called it their platform at one point), but this whole release of classic/traditional Disney figures is just mismatched. All 5 IO emotions? (2.0 only had Hiro and Baymax from BH6, not the whole team.) Two Tron figures but nothing from Lion King yet? A 3rd Mickey instead of Goofy? And as previous members have said, what about the Muppets or the 40's/50's characters? Are all unused series going to be just Power Disc fodder?
For that matter, what about 4.0? Something's going to be added to act as the marketing punch for the game, (Like Marvel with 2.0 and Star Wars with 3.0) but what? Kingdom Hearts? Ghibli? Lucasfilm?

With Star Wars being the main theme, I'm surprised this wasn't announced at SW Celebration. Also, it's been a year since the previous one was announced. Skylanders Trap Team too. Guess both companies are announcing them later than usual this year.
Fuck all that when's MABEL ?!
4.0 will be centered around the crazy happenings of gravity falls. i need floating flaming head stan.

They were. They're even have statues if you unlock them in 2.0 and the tablet versions have them for free. This is the first time brand new figs will likely be BC with a previous version of the game.

They are, same with the figures last year and Skylanders figures for the last four years. Toys 2 life figures are outselling normal action figures, they're not going to go anywhere because people outside the targeted audience think the games are underwhelming.
3 will be Star Wars, & 4 may be Classic Disney.
Fuck all that when's MABEL ?!
I'd get an Infinity figure of Grunkle Stan in a heartbeat.

I have a gut feeling it'll just be 3 playsets like they did for the Marvel ones.
Few thoughts as someone who recently got into Infinity with 2.0:
1) Glad they're making physical figures of the Tron characters. Was afraid they might stay on iPad or whatever. I'm wit it.
2) Seems like the release is similar to 2.0 in the sense of limited, SW-specific playsets and that's it? Shame, because I really think they should be going all out on playsets above everything else. I mean, if anyone has played the games they know replayability and the limitations of playsets are really what are stopping this franchise from being on another level (furthermore, the Spider-Man one is so painfully mundane and repetitive coming off of The Avengers), and IMHO they should just be churning them out, and digging more into classic/properties that are just turning into a mound of missed opportunities they might not have later on.
3) I don't think Marvel figures will be neglected, but this time the non-SW figures will be sharing space with what was only Disney Originals last time. I expect 2-4, also anticipating more figures in general. Then again, if these are all the Originals, I presume we might see the same amount of Marvel Super Heroes too. If we're being conservative, I'd guess:
The Vision
Ant-Man
Ultron
Dr. Strange
Black Panther
Would love Captain Marvel as her in-game model is just wonderful.
4) I wonder where they'll go in terms of Star Wars figures, specifically. Will kids of today buy another lightsaber-wielding figure with similar powers in robe? I think there's a lot to choose from and we'll see fan favourites like Maul make an appearance because of how distinct they are. Regardless, count on someone like Vader not being part of a starter pack.

Wait Mickey wasn't in the first two games? The hell?
He was, but in the sorcerer's apprentice outfit.
FTFY
We aren't sure if they'll do villains without a playset since none of the 2.0 Disney Originals had villains. If they do, then I'll say Ultron is a safe bet.
He's not really a villain in the story I guess, but Venom is a well known Spidey villain was one of their highest selling figures, and given the nature and theatrics of Ultron I can see that being something to pursue.
Pretty hard to bet against anything from Age of Ultron TBH but I was just being conservative because they can only push out so many figures to shelves. I wouldn't even throw out the idea of a Hulkbuster figure that's plays like Hulk/Baymax etc.
EDIT: For reference, recent surveys also polled for an Ultron figure, so there is hope. Also gives some better expectations for SW and DO figures.
DO?

Sorry, i haven't kept up with disney Infinity at all, but is there an Agent Coulson figure?
Razgriz-Specter
Member
Minnie? No
Mickey was in Infinity 1.
Donald was in 2.
Seems like they are doing one original classic per game. Minnie is 3, Goofy will likely be 4.
Just like their 90's classics there is no way they'd blow them on one game.
1 was Toy Story, 2 Aladdin, 3 likely Mulan,
4 will probably be Beauty and the Beast, Little Mermaid will come whenever they work water in and so on.
Kinda hoping 2nd versions of characters(Mickey) are mostly just a costume swap.
I wouldn't mind a classic Maleficent, then i'd be likely to buy here.
Not at the moment, but he may be one of the Marvel figures for 3.0.
His car Lola is in 2.0, though.

Thanks, my wife stopped by the Infinity section and was looking for him. So there's Yondu but no Coulson? Odd priorities.

Guardians of the Galaxy was pretty hot so they milked it a lot. Yondu was a mission giver and a Team up disc, yet they released a figure later.

They made an Ultimate Spiderman set based on the cartoon but didn't even make Powerman or White Tiger playable.
Marvel was awful with their picks.
Really shows the immaturity of a fandom when 2 characters can't love each other without them wanting to fuck. Friends and family members love each other all the time.

Interesting. So they are going with the prequels for the main content? I'm not a big fan of anakin, not sure how I feel about this.
Be still my beating heart.Leak looks pretty legit.

I wonder how many more figures we'll get and from what eras.

This website had the leak, but then Disney asked them to take it down.

Since the new movie only will be out at the end of the year, I guess they cannot spoil anything right now
But only 2 figures at the starter set???
