very cool video to watch. great quality too. thanks for posting this mightyman! it's 30 minutes long so here's the run down of new info:

each character figure will have a ~20 minute adventure level in the toy box that explains and demonstrates their unique powers and abilities.
figures can level up to level 15.
figures are platform agnostic. (i think we knew this already but i'm not sure)
3DS has a different infinity base that can support one figure.
over 1000 virtual toys can be unlocked for the toy box.
3 initial series of power discs for a total of 60 released in 3 waves.
Combinations of two power discs yield a new 3rd buff. (frankenweenie health + jack sparrow money = 3% health regen)
terrain discs change other aspects such as trees/road/water in the toybox. a prompt will come up when initially placed asking the player if they want to do a total reskin.
not sure if it was the terrain they sky or having both but once it was nightmare before christmas themed "this is halloween" started playing in the background! (my favorite bit of news!) same happened with tron.

Nice find! And nice quality, too! It's great seeing an in-depth look into the game finally.

Oh wow. toops got everything of note.

When they are talking power discs they start talking about putting the discs in other things besides blind packs. The Disney Guy, sorry I don't know his name, blurts out Blu-Ray straight away. This sounds good and bad.

Great for anyone that collects the blu-rays, ie me, but not for the people that dabble. It also worries me that they'll have ones that are exclusive to DisneyLand/World and other vendors that are not accessible to everyone.

I am still hoping for Disney Infinity products to at least be redeemable via Disney Movie Rewards or even for the figures to give you extra points, probably 75 each sounds fair.

Just my past midnight thoughts.
MPK for short.

Awesome videos. Was hoping for some cars gameplay want to know how that feels. Love the combination of power disks and the fact he mentions new game features not yet announced.

Love the idea they worked with Pixar for violets back story and how she progressed in her older years. So much thought. However makes me crave a sequel :).

Oh my gosh this video was an overload of awesome! I was so happy seeing how the domes/themes would work, very very cool. It was nice to also hear a bit more clearly how the voices will sound/work, as I've been really curious about character voices in the game. The conversations were very enjoyable too.

I can see the whole BluRay exclusive Discs/etc becoming a very real thing. I also worry about exclusive discs that will end up being extremely elusive thanks to the sparsity of parks, and event areas.

@ Mr Penguin Knight - Points are a great idea, I would love to see them implement something like that to keep an incentive with collecting.


Thank you for sharing!!

Disney never shies away from doing cool little limited edition and/or exclusive things. There are Cast Member-only Vinylmation figures, for example.
