BaD Twenty: Disney Infinity Gets Complicated

On 02/20/2016 at 04:15 AM by KnightDriver

Alright, so today I learned something new (and kind of annoying) about Disney Infinity and what you need to play two player online co-op in the story missions (called "playsets"). There are special figures that unlock the playsets.

I got two portals and two copies of DI 2.0 today, and then realized I needed these special figures to actually unlock the playsets, two of them actually, one for each online co-op player. Well I had, by good luck, bought two Avengers figures already, so I got two Avengers playset unlock figures. Then, with the buy-2-get-3-free sale (portals count), I got a playset unlock fig for the Guardians of the Galaxy playset. See pic. below:

Those clear figures, that are hard to see, are the playset unlock figs. If you look at a portal, it has a special spot just for the playset unlock fig, and two spots for action figs. Of course, all this doesn't matter much if you just want to play in the toybox - no playset unlock fig needed there, But I like story modes and, especially, co-op story modes.

I wanted to spend $20 today but it ended up at $40 because of those darn level unlock figs. Well, now at least, I know what to get next time: 2 playset unlock figs and 2 action figs for that playset.

There are three playsets in Disney 2.0: Avengers, Spider-Man and Guardians of the Galaxy. I have Avengers now, so I'll work on Guardians next. Hopefully, this weekend, Mark and I can give Avengers a spin.

Almost picked up Black Widow today because I thought she was a Spider-Man character. Stupid me. Of course she's with The Avengers.

Yeah Black Cat is the pider-Man charcter I believe. I know there are typos in that last sentence. Not gonna fix 'em.

Yeah, like I tried to tell you on your last blog, those clear pieces are key. Glad you got some.

They tend to cost more than the figures, which is kind of annoying. Being clear, they're not very interesting as figures.

Don't forget for even more fun you buy the discs and you get in game vehicles and other stuff. It's like Disney wants ALL your money!

I've just started using the discs, and I think I've found something else to collect. Those things are pretty cool in-game. There's not too many of them in the wild around here though, but I've got a few places I can go.
