There are Lightsabers in Disney infinity – if you have the cash

These are not the toys yu are looking for

People have been worried since Disney acquired Star Wars that it would use the licence in ways intended to extract cash from fans. Worry no more, star Wars aficionados…because that’s exactly what they’re doing. 

A super secret crossover Easter egg has been found in Disney’s digital toybox, Infinity. Yes, you can unlock a Lightsaber for use by any of the characters. Before you get giddy though, realise that it’s going to cost you. A lot.

The only way to unlock said magic sword of light is to purchase every single character available for the game, level them up to bronze and then find your shiny new digital toy in the hall of heroes. the only reason it’s not been found to now is that the characters themselves have been released in waves, and the final piece of the puzzle, the Phineas and Ferb Set is still unreleased. One lucky person who won a set at Comic-Con now has the complete collection and has shown the thing off.

This Disney Infinity starter pack retails locally for about R700, plus 6 play sets of nearly R300 each plus a handful of standalone characters and you’re looking at quite bit of cash just to unlock a damned Lightsaber. On the one hand, it’s a neat little Easter egg for those who love Disney Infinity – but for those Star Wars types who must have everything related to the series, it’s a very expensive endeavour.

          Do you have a red mark on your desk by any chance, and if so does it seem to get darker every time Darryn walks past?

      I don’t know, I don’t think it’s bad really. It’s not like, buy EVERYTHING for the lightsaber. People who are into this game are already buying the figurines so it’s an added bonus for them

        “It’s not like, buy EVERYTHING for the lightsaber.”

        Actually that’s exactly what it’s like. Yes, peeps are collecting the figurines. But the fact is you have to buy every figurine to unlock. It’s an abuse of the franchise on both ends

          The whole game is an abuse of the franchise. It plays on Disney and Lucas nostalgia. Is it really that surprising they would do this? It’s an already expensive game. It is an actual if not dumb incentive to collect them all. If some one who is really into the game collects all the figurines, shouldn’t there be something special for him? Which is why I say, it’s not a go buy it all now for a Lightsaber. But it is an incentive.

            Kids are going to be begging their parents for the lightsaber. It’s not an incentive. It’s a headache waiting to happen for parents.

            Do kids these days even know what a lightsaber is? I would be a proud parent 🙂 and then I would take away the game and make them play something better lol

        Completely off-topic. I built my first energy weapon in Warframe (from the labs).

          I built the pistol and the melee weapon, but I cant build the Supra even though I have all the resources… Also I’ve been jamming PS3 a bit. Kinda feels like I’m neglecting a third wife.
