A separate Age of Ultron playset was confirmed?

Well, what it says is that it is a playset "focused on Marvel characters including Hulkbuster Iron Man, Ultron, and more."

 

[TheSlySoul]

I called it saying that Star Wars would have 2 playsets.
Hope the original trilogy has good figurines.

Edit: Ok, I get it now. Two on release day and the third one will be later.

 

[Hoho for breakfast]

Toy Story 3 Toy Box Mode please.

For real. What the hell happened?

Why does every single character look pissed off?

American marketing.

I just ran a search for "Age of Ultron" & "Avengers", so I guess that's why I missed it. Thanks for the correction.

Now Disney, announce the Twins.

Now Disney, announce the Twins.

And Vision

 

[Neoxon]

And Vision

Vision's been getting tons of merchandise, he's safe.

Star wars is action focused so they're supposed to look 'badass'. If you look at the other side of the cover the inside out characters and mickey are happy

They typically give us roughly 30 figures. This is what I expect to be announced with 4-5 additional figures coming later this year with the Force Awakens playset.

1 Anakin
2 Ahsoka
3 Yoda
4 Obi Wan
5 Darth Maul
6 Luke
7 Leia
8 Han Solo
9 Chewbacca
10 Darth Vader
11 Classic Mickey
12 Minnie
13 Sam Flynn
14 Quorra
15 Joy
16 Anger
17 Disgust
18 Fear
19 Sadness
20 Mulan
21 Olaf
22 Hulkbuster
23 Ultron
24 Vision
25 Quiksilver
26 Scarlet Witch


Only 10 minutes until the official announcement and trailer!

That's actually a plausible list. Though you're missing some space for the mystery Disney playset.....& Ant-Man.

While we're wishing...

Probably the figure I want most.

Looks like there's a Grevious-esque figure on the table at 0:25, I would put him as likely.

They can put Olaf in the Star Wars Universe for the trailer but not in the actual game? Boooo.

 

[curb]

Same here but I've got a feeling that's not happening this round. It's a shame too since she's available as a power disc assist so in a lot of ways, it should be easy to do.

I'm interested in seeing more of what's going to be in the Toy Box Takeover and Toy Box Speedway. I wonder if GI will have anything about those this week.

That's this guy, right?

(From an earlier leak)

 

[Vanillalite]

Screen cap from the trailer. Add it to the OP as it shows the 3.0 SW starter set!

Captain Marvel may be saved for whenever her movie comes out.

Olaf was already leaked, he's getting a figure.

I know and that makes me sad. Her movie isn't until what, 2017? I hope I don't have to wait that long.

I assume we will be getting a baseless version as well.

 

[Hoho for breakfast]

Yeah I mean he's only in the Toy Box mode though along with half the other figures they've made. They give some excuse about not wanting to cross over the characters and worlds as the reason you can't for example play as Olaf in the Star Wars universe.

Oh well, maybe the "Toy Box Takeover" mode won't suck? I don't have my hopes up but it'd be nice.

 

[Neoxon]

November 2018. It would have been July 2018 but the addition of Spider-Man pushed her back.

 

[Blues1990]

I'll take it that Luke Skywalker and the droids come in their very own package? Seems fitting, given the context of Episode IV.

 

[enzo_gt]

I assume we will be getting a baseless version as well.

Is that usually the case with each new release?

I definitely don't need another base.

Also the $65 price is a bit more tolerable for 2 packed in characters.

The Original Trilogy is getting its own separate playset, so yeah.

They normally release a separate digital version for those who already have a base.

 

[Dantis]

I love the figures, but my problem is that the actual game isn't very good. I got some mild enjoyment out of the challenge mode in the first game, but 2.0 was basically trash.

 

[curb]

That's even more depressing. I knew it's now between Infinity War I and II but I guess I forgot what hear IW will be in. Yuck

With Avengers the baseless edition came out a month later, I hope that won't be the case this time. I already got two bases.

Are the bases always the same? (unlike the Skylanders ones?)

 

[Neoxon]

Yes, so you can use your old base in the new game.

Like the Avengers playset, they'll likely release a separate Clone Wars playset for those who already have a base & a digital copy of the game.

I hope so. It won't happen but I'd love a solo Ahsoka for my desk.

Edit: separate base-less Clone Wars playset shown in the Toy Box TV video.

 

[Vanillalite]

This fall there goes all of my money!

 

[Effect]

I wonder what the odds are of the Wii U version not running like crap this time around?

Was so disappointed by the performance of the first game (not just in gameplay but the same menus lagged) l I stopped after a few hours. Haven't put the game back in. Held off on 2.0 but what I saw and read made it seemed like nothing had improved so I didn't even bother buying it. I would like for this to be the third times the charm but sure this is false hope.

 

[RPGCrazied]

Wonder what star wars character will be in the starter pack. I must have Yoda and Vader along with the old cast.

 

[Endless]

Sam Flynn and Quorra figures (TRON)

The 3.0 Starter Pack has the Clone Wars playset with Anakin & Ahsoka (also available as a separate playset). The Original Trilogy is its own playset that can be bought separately including Luke & Leia.

 

[curb]

I really like that Hulkbuster design.

So I haven't played and DI playsets beyond the Marvel ones from 2.0. Have the other playsets been more level based? They're indicating that the OT Star Wars stuff will be a "greatest hits" style trip through the movies so I'm assuming they're not just one open level like the Marvel stuff.

Really liking that Quorra figure. Definitely will snag a few figures, even if I don't bite on the starter set.

Just download the digital copy of the game, problem solved.

Loving this. Fingers crossed for a Star Wars or Marvel-game with combat design by them in the future.

PS: I feel like we need a mod to come and make a new topic cause all of this news and trailer shit is buried in the thread vs the OP

 

[Certinty]

Feels like they're going backwards with the content. From original and awesome Disney stuff, to Marvel and then to this.

I have 2.0 and doubt I'll get this unless they make the upgrade fairly cheap and the gameplay is massively improved.

 

[Baron von Loathsome]

Sumo and United Front? Wow.

 

[enzo_gt]

Just download the digital copy of the game, problem solved.

Is that usually sold at a big discount?

Cause it's going to need to be like $30 to offset the cost of buying a playset separately.
