Have you ever imagined a world with no hypothetical situations?

You know, I hadn't even thought of the fact that the figures are playable characters in a game! All I'm thinking about is completing these sets of characters. Sorry, the collector is stronger than the gamer!

I'm thinking of buying some bricks to replace the figures on the bases because you are picking the figures up so often, that your grubby fingerprints might start to have an impact on them. All the info is in the disc after all!

Well, that sucks. Disney is no longer making Infinity games, so I bought all these freaking characters and now they will be gathering dust.

That does suck. Can't say I'm surprised though.
At least my Star Wars figures still look good on my desk.

can't say I'm surprised either. I Think Lego Dimensions played a part in taking the wind out of their sales. Didn't help that you could only play one character at a time on the pad either

Maybe, and that's a big maybe, but I think it had more to do with Disney's business model with this product. Too many restrictions with how the game was played and too high a price point for each expansion pack had to have hurt sales. They banked on parents eating this stuff up for their kids instead of relying on making the product more accessible for those interested in gaming in general.

I think that is exactly where Lego Dimensions killed this game. My kids were endlessly frustrated that they couldn't play with their favourite characters as they liked and where they liked. Dimensions is so sweet in that they can parachute Owen Grady into the Wizard of Oz for no other reason than little kid crush on Chris Pratt

I'm hoping that now there is the possibility that Disney might see sense(BWAHAHAHAHA!), see how well LD is doing and come to an arrangement with WB so that the Marvel, Disney, Pixar, Indiana Jones & Star Wars Licenses can be used in LD
Pleaselettherebea LEGO Marvel Vs DC!!!
