[@CoinOpTV]

Disney Infinity ended way too early just as it was getting legs!

[@Ferdoe]

CoinOpTV I bet if they made one more game in the style of what it was leaked to be it could have really succeeded.

[@blip7882]

I wish it would have stayed but getting it's legs 3 games later is not the best

[@Andi_Thy_Is]

CoinOpTV I agree, they even said they wanted to do Kingdom Hearts for 4.0 and that's what I was so excited for. Even then I really liked the first three games.

[@ajshim]

CoinOpTV I could not agree more. I also think if Disney listened to the fans and gave more characters that we wanted. Like more princess movie characters or lesser shown like Robin Hood or even more tv show characters like Gargoyles.

[@0Gumball6470]

CoinOpTV that’s facts

[@downscale]

The fan base for Disney Infinity was not that of Skylanders. Disney fans are different and this would've kept strong despite the decline of Skylanders. It's like if Disney closed EPCOT because Universal was doing poorly, uhh..what were they thinking?

[@walkerman2001]

downscale it's not like they closed it down because they thought it would do poorly in the future, it was doing poorly in the present due to the massive budget.

[@Shakiahjprod]

Not really. It was stated that Disney didn't expect Infinity to be that big. They only renewed it to get the other major franchises out, then when the market got scarce they announced there would be no more. I think the last play set was Dory

I just watched both movies for the first time and I absolutely love them!

[@rileyanddaddysavetheworld7775]

My son and I still play Infinity from time to time. The world-building aspects are a lot of fun, and I think its terrible form for Disney to have essentially turned their back on people that made significant investments in one of their products. I wish someone else would pick up the reins, but I'm sure Disney would never release the licensing to all of the figures and storylines. Frustrating.

[@pwrbttmbarb]

Riley and Daddy Save the World I kinda feel bad for saying or really asking this but, I am selling my Disney infinity figures for around 100 dollars, and I do have a lot. It's not like you'll ever see this but, why not put it out there just in case

[@rileyanddaddysavetheworld7775]

Thanks for the offer but we have a lot of them. I think we're all set.

[@Klonoahedgehog]

I wish Disney infinity had a fourth game. I would have loved a Sora figure.

[@downscale]

I think one of the best things that was going to be in 4.0 was the ability to link several user made ToyBox worlds into a campaign. That would've made Disney Infinity's replay value incredible.

[@MikeJehmszClassic]

I almost forgot about that! If only they weren't cancelled so abruptly.

[@trickypigletmeep3980]

Don’t bring up sora you’re breaking my heart

[@Webshooters1]

Well there was a BIT of KH in Infinity. You could unlock the Kingdom Key but the requirements were insane and at D23 they gave away a power disc that unlocked Mickey's KH2 outfit.

[@thegeekingchannel4711]

Crystal Keyblade same I would have gotten that Doctor Strange figure that looked sick

[@Epic24123]

I think they did it at a bad time. They got it good with 3.0 and had their chance to continue it.

[@Ushio01]

The market was flooded by that point. Toys to life was a huge money maker for one franchise, profitable for two and crippled with 3+. When Activision revives Skylanders if it becomes a hit again I doubt we will see as much competition with how burnt Disney and WB got the first time.

[@OhtheHughmanity]

3.0 was my favorite Disney Infinity Game. The inclusion of Star Wars was probably the biggest draw. And I should point out they didn’t make a play set for the prequels instead choosing the clone wars and that was a smart move because the prequels weren’t the best films.

[@MRGOHST-mn6xw]

they still had a jar jar mission

[@OhtheHughmanity]

Efan Taylor they were better than the sequels but I hold the original trilogy as the best

[@FrigginBoomToys]

I was immediately put off from Infinity based purely on how much stuff there filling the shelves at the store. It didn't make me say 'wow, there is so much cool stuff to get' it was more like 'Why is there so much stuff you have to get?'

[@jamesanthony8438]

We've only just started collecting these things this year (for the PS3, although I'm probably going to pick the games up for the Wii as well). My great-niece really enjoys picking them up off the base, switching them out for other characters, running around, and repeating the process ad nauseam. So far, my favorites from the set are Jack Skellington with Victor's Experiments (Frankenweenie) + Halloweentown Sky (Nightmare Before Christmas) + Ghost Rider's Motorcycle. Picked those up a week ago at Game X Change and nearly fell out of my chair when I placed him onto the bike to test the pieces out. His head burst into flames and I'm like, "Okay, Kenley, you're getting _all the rest of these_ when you get older, but these are right here MINE!!" She proceeded to remove jack and put Elsa on the platform. =)

[@edengilliam7423]

Fun fact: if you put a play set piece from a previous infinity game you would get ALL of its items for free! And if you touch a magic band on the pad you get a statue of Walt and Mickey!

[@MikeJehmszClassic]

The MagicBands had different unlocks in each game. In 1.0 it was the New Fantasyland Dragon's Gate, in 2.0 it was the It's a Small World building, and 3.0 had the Partners Statue. 3.0 also had unlocks with the Cruise Line Oceaneer Band.

So sad that we never got 4.0 to ever come to fruition. Alpha footage of it was leaked not too long ago, and showed a story mode filled with interactions between Yoda, Alladin and Judy Hopps in the world of Alladin. Seemed fun. And just imagine the potential figures... new Mcu inspired figures like Thanos, Hela, Mantis, Thor with Stormbreaker, and Doctor Strange, new Star Wars figures like Old Luke, Revan and Snoke, and new Disney•Pixar characters like Simba, The Screenslaver/Underminer, Dumbo and Bo Peep to promote their upcoming films. The series was killed before it even started. May it rest in peace. R.I.P. Disney Infinity 2013-2016

[@alexslusher16]

Let's face it. As fun & unique as the Toys to Life concept was when it started all the way back in 2011 with Skylanders, I think it was the right move to kill it off when they all did. I mean it took the world by storm at first, but after a few years, it just got repetative & predictable. I mean sure, I am going to miss Skylanders, Disney Infinity & Lego Dimensions, but it is probably good that we are finally saying good bye to this 7 year long era. As much as I want to see a Skylanders 7, 8, 9, & 10. We have to let things go. I mean look at Toys R Us. That was the best store to buy toys, but sadly, because of newer technology & just the click of a button with Amazon Prime, Toys R Us had to go. It sucks that we are now living in an era where DVDs are becoming the new VHS tapes, new game concepts only last about 7 years, Star Wars isn't (cough) as popular as it used to be because of SJWs & the Critically Acclaimed The Last Jedi recieving bad reviews from Audiences (cough) it pained me to say that because I'm always going to remain loyal to Star Wars no matter who's in charge & who owns it.

[@MRGOHST-mn6xw]

[@SilverStarBlaze766]

Technically the genre itself isn't dead, it may not have dedicated games anymore (although there is that new starlink thing coming out this fall), amiibo are still alive and well, especially with the new smash game coming out, and that every new character announced will get an amiibo, and the interest in amiibos will spike again. I think Nintendo took a good spin on the toys to life market, making them optional, but making pretty good quality figures of beloved characters, and making them useable in more than one game (whether they worked as a fighter in smash bros, unlocked a costume, unlocked extra gear, gave bonuses etc.) like even some third party Nintendo games support amiibo (Skyrim for switch, the dark souls remastered will have its own amiibo, bayonetta 1&2 and probably 3, shovel knight, etc.)

[@peterhalliday6492]

Excuse my ignorance but what do Social Justice Warriors have to do with Star Wars not being popular please?

[@marvelous_saint6887]

I was hyped because of Disney Infinity Next, or whatever it was called back in 2016 i'm pretty sure, but then Disney Infinity died. I started in 2013 and stopped playing 2016. Rip Disney Infinity 1.0, 2.0 and 3.0.

It’s funny cuz you can still buy Disney infinity 2.0 and 3.0 on the PlayStation store, but stores don’t sell the stands or play sets or characters anymore😢

[@Pokeforce1GetRickRolled]

I liked how they made the sidekicks 3 pack and the villains 3 pack to be able to do co-op in the starter playset, instead of having to get all them individually

Disney infinity is a fantastic series, I love how this video highlights the evolution into the great game it was. It would've been awesome to see where it could've gone with 4.0 and beyond.

I loved the incredibles but one of its major flaws was that everyone was able to get their “special attack” after you got the dojo. I also loved cars and toy story, and I have so many vivid memories to revisit. Disney infinity 4.0 would’ve been so fun to see, some sort of crossover where no one character from one universe would make a difference, relying on the older characters to have unique buffs and the newer characters to have fun movement options.

[@WarioLand3]

You can buy "Disney Infinity Gold Edition" 1-3 on Steam which don't require any plastic to play, and correct me if I'm wrong but I think it includes everything released for Disney Infinity.

I used to play this game religiously. I still to this day torture my friends with my custom made Kaizo levels with special rules like: No weapons, items and transports unless provided in the level and ONE checkpoint ONLY that is located right at the beginning. Their reactions to trick jumps and hair pulling death traps are priceless.

[@wolkaiserdrake9946]

toys to life isnt really that, its more figurines to life or statues, not really toys, lego dimensions was the only one to really be toys because even after finishing the game and the game being over, you could still play with the toys as lego, add parts, give select tools and weapons to a character that would never use them normally, skylanders and infinity didn't have that aspect really, if the figures were partly pose able then it may have helped because then they would have been toys that could be played with outside of the game, granted, this is only an opinion and should be seen as such, also, distribution is a factor to consider, some places get the game, others down, my local tescos didnt have ether infinity or skylanders for a month or so even though other places already had them

Fun Fact: there was a special version of Disney Infinity 2.0 which contained the Avengers Playset, every Avengers character except Falcon and Loki and a special Frost Giant Base. 3.0 got a similar one but it was just a bundle of the Twilight of the Republic and Rise against the Empire playsets with a limited time exclusive Boba Fett Figure.

[@NidorinoAlliance]

I think the problem is that 2.0 is the awkward puberty of the series, and it was right when they could have gotten new players. 1.0 was simple and fun and similar to a lot of LEGO style collectathons, but with a complex and intuitive creation tool. 2.0 had a bigger emphasis on combat, and that was expanded upon, but the combat was still really repetitive and uninvolving. It’s also bad that the only one of the playsets they released for 2.0 that had interesting and involving combat, mission design, and really solid level design for platforming was the Guardians of the Galaxy one (which was done by the people who did the Pirates play set). For 3.0, they got Ninja Theory (DmC, Heavenly Sword) to reinvent the combat and they made it this combo focused and incredibly fun and satisfying DmC-lite melee attack system with all the force powers and newer Marvel characters, and all three of the Star Wars playsets play like polished PS2 action platformers, like Ratchet and Clank, or even (once again) the platforming focused DmC. It was so good. And with a few more additions, like the Doctor Strange and Spider-Gwen figures and the Rogue One and Moana playsets, it could have ended with a bang instead of a whimper. C’mon Disney. AT LEAST release them as figurines. The Spider-Gwen one looked SO GOOD.

[@brandonbaggaley2317]

I have a problem with Disney Infinity. The game was advertised with crossover play between characters. However, the only way to have the characters crossover is in the toy box mode or a very limited amount of the play sets and NEVER in the playsets that serve as the game's story modes. The only way to have Elsa fight Darth Maul or General Grievous is in the Toy Box mode. The Crossover tokens that are found in the Story Mode playsets like Twilight of the Republic or The Force Awakens only unlock the ability to use Star Wars characters that weren't the main playable protagonists for that playset. An example would be for the Twilight of the Republic playset, the crossover tokens unlock Darth Maul and every Star Wars character not featured in Star Wars: The Clone Wars. Skylanders didn't lock characters out of story levels. You can play as Kaos even though it didn't make sense. The only characters that worked similarly were Turbo Charge DK and Hammer Slam Bowser not letting players use them on Playstation or Xbox versions of Skylanders Superchargers and Imaginators due to being Nintendo characters that were promoting the Nintendo versions of Superchargers. Since the Crossover tokens unlock characters from the same property, they shouldn't be called CROSSOVER tokens at all!

[@paleo2359]

The solution is you make your own levels where Elsa has to fight Star Wars characters. Problem solved.

[@brandonbaggaley2317]

@@paleo2359, that is the main component of the problem, not the solution. I want story and adventure from out of the box, not the requirement to build one from scratch.

Wait, did you just say Infinity was monetized more than Skylanders? Skylanders put paywalls to unlock areas to allow you to 100% the game, requiring you to buy one of each element figure (and not the cheaper ones).

[@Kohdok]

Infinity topped that. There are certain item and treasure chests that can only be opened by SPECIFIC characters and even huge vaults that can be opened only if you own every character from that world. Skylanders only makes you buy 1/4th of the characters to unlock nearly everything and doesn't try to hock an extension cord on you on top of that.

[@KelliAmandaHoward]

I miss this game sooooooo much still buying and collecting figures (anyone got a baymax they dont need) the thinking was that in the playsets the characters would interact as they would within their franchise hence the franchise lock the toy box was where a "child could pick up their toys and race dory vs Darth Vader in a sugar rush candy car and have olaf dance with Darth maul" (sorry for essentially the same analagy it's just funny to envision Sith doing these fun things)

For me being a kid at that time. The main reason I didn't get very many infinity stuff was because once I got the first one the second one came out of the blue a little less than a year later and because it was expensive at the time even I didn't think it was worth it.

_John The Gamer _ yes i know that,but in 2018 disney and fox have signed a deal so i believe that disney could use fox property's with permission

[@x-menlol1613]

_John The Gamer _ this isn't Lego dimensions this Disney infinity and Disney now owns some of Fox so the Simpson's could have been it

[@DripAlucard]

Killing it with the background music Ok just the JoJo one

[@otaking3582]

There might've been some consumer burnout in terms of toy-to-life (which I blame mostly on Nintendo refusing to make enough amiibo's to meet demand), but to say that there wasn't any more potential, when they have access to THOUSANDS of characters and IP's at their disposal? I call BS on that.

Gosh I remember the DI Star Wars games were a lot better than most previous Star Wars games I played growing up. It’s kind of interesting that Disney had foresight on the end of Toys to Life games, my personal annoyance is that the Hera figure never made it past planning stages and recordings of her voice actress.

I want a dark wing duck figure with the moana play set as well as a gravity falls play set, with x men characters.

[@AngelJD]

I'm a Spider-Gwen fan and they were making a figure for her for this game. Plus they were making a storyline mode and single player storyline Multiverse crossover storyline for the game (which the internet world building is nice but I always hope for a good challenging and fun and well writing story mode in these games). I like the art style of the toys and ad how it was ended just as the game was starting to feel more complete and worth it. At the time I got a few figures just for the characters and art style but I didn't own a console just a pc. I wished the game stands worked and was patched to work with PCs (they were connected by USB for consoles). Reading about what was to come had me very hopeful and in the beginning Disney marketed this game but then just pulled the plug out of nowhere. Also as a few people wrote many of the sets didn't have a storyline mode (a draw for the game was that each playset was its own individual game but many of the playsets didn't get one like Frozen playset) plus couldn't crossover (example Elsa and Captain America couldn't play together and that hurts imagination and fun forced to do things plus ruins the crossover factors). What you could do sometimes felt had to much repetition to be long term fun.

Disney infinity was an experience entirely of its own and boy was it amazing

[@perreh298]

I still play this game it's still fun to experiment with the toy box and everything it's also cool to see all these Disney characters put into a game the figures are pretty cool to cause you get to play as your favourite Disney characters in this open world and creative game and with the figures you get a cool little display with them I like the Nick Wilde figure and Perry the platypus

[@bugenthusiast8892]

So true about yondu .Hes way more likable in guardians of the galaxy volume 2.

[@andypandaman1607]

there was still brave figures in 2019 at walmart

[@awsomebstudios2146]

Still see star wars in homebargins

[@YoSoySrRojo]

I still have all of my Disney Infinity characters! I would always ask for them in my Christmas list, good times

[@kanalintu9246]

Pirates of the caribbean set is like AC Black Flag for kids :D

[@Kamiyouni]

Nice! I like Retrospectives.

[@princessloveheartglitter]

Apparently they're releasing 4.0 in 2022

[@hectormanuel8360]

I loved Disney Infinity.

[@gordobrigadainviernoel8216]

Got disney infinity collection on pc and everything comes unlocked and it's digital. Best collection ever. Recommend it. Disney infinity lives on

[@joeykette6834]

I’m sorry that Disney infinity got canceled 2 years ago but they couldn’t create the Moana figure. They also can’t create Avatar figures, Bug’s Life figures, Peter Pan figure, a Goofy figure, and a Russel figure.

[@jcosmos27]

I had a lot of those. Nick Fury, Iron Man, Thor, Donald Duck, Sorcerer’s Apprentice Mickey (Clear one), Tinker Bell (i know), Luke, Vader, The Tron Dude, Buzz (Clear one), And others I wasn’t able to mention, Have fun in the shelf.

[@goldmyr22]

Thanks for doing this :) Sometimes when I look at my collection that I also mostly collected just at the tail end of the fallout and after, I wonder about it. It felt as though part of it was still confusing. Why DID the 2nd best selling toys to life company *Disney* Jump out so suddenly? What happened? And you just put it the best way for me to understand. Bad management. They had several game developing companies to pay and not enough money to do it. Okay, I'm not good at quoting but your explanation was solid and thank you so much. I still wish they could've planned an ending around 4.0 because it seems as though that would've been the gameplay that could probably continue to be the most entertaining. Like "Hey friend of mine! You feel like stopping the clone wars with Jack Skellington and Rapunzel? Because pumpkins and frying pans!"

[@SourRobo8364]

I'm still mad they never released Hera. We have the main rebel crew, except Hera. And she's the best character, to me anyways.

[@lcddrownd874]

I really wish this genre didn't crash. Because I'm in a broke family I never got to play then very much cause it's expensive. But I really wanted to.

[@TheObbster]

Disney Infinity was my childhood; all 3 of all of em. I was devastated when it was cancelled.

[@jimbryant2157]

I know I am WAY late to this game, but I have a question: I just bought 3.0 (for the PS3 - have not received it yet), but my daughter really wants the Loki figure (from 2.0). Question: Do I have to now buy 2.0 so she can play with the Loki figure? Are 2.0 figures only playable with 2.0 (and 3.0 figures only playable with 3.0)? Sorry for the newb questions - just trying to NOT waste money. Thanks!

[@GELTONZ]

Disney Infinity ABSOLUTELY killed Toy to Life. Skylanders was making some screw ups but nothing irredeemable, but the sudden cancellation of Disney Infinity shook the world and everyone was SHOCKED! I have a friend in the toy business and the general consensus was "If DISNEY can't make it work, then it's all over! Abandon ship!". As for 4.0? I just LAUGH. "Oh this one TOTALLY would have had a cross-over campaign" what you mean the very thing 1.0 was marketed as? You mean the whole reason they're TOYS instead of the actual characters? Yeah no sorry, this has the stink of executive meddling all over it. Disney is NOTORIOUS for their "No Cross Overs" rule and ABSOLUTELY would have enforced it to ruin 4.0 the same way they ruined 1.0-3.0. To be blunt, I HAAATED Disney Infinity and I did indeed try all 3. Why? Because all the characters I WANT to play as were Toy Box Only and the Toy Box sucked. It was clunky and incredibly limited in what it can do. I downloaded all the top rated Toy Boxes I could on every game to try and find SOMETHING worthwhile to do with Tinkerbell and Jasmine but it was just a no-go. Disney utterly missed the entire POINT of Toys To Life which hurt both the consumer and (ironically) themselves.

[@ruledbyvenus2041]

That franky background theme thooo

[@aleaiactaest6503]

Played both swap force and 1.0 on the Wii. Must say, they were entirely different and infinity was the better game.

[@bryanjennings6168]

Love the Jojo music in the background

[@jluke1212]

I only ended up playing the IOS version of Disney Infinity. It was pretty decent, just never decided to touch the console version due to having to buy the characters.

[@MrDeadCardGamer]

Hoping for a lego dimensions retrospective as I never played the game

[@fruitlion8]

Road to Infinity is one of my favourite tunes from video games.

[@Lanosrep]

Who remembers the Toy Story 3 game Toybox? That was the stuff
