Does Amazon do any post purchase price adjustments? Just bought kanan last Wednesday.

If it's within 7 days of delivery they will adjust the price. You just have to send an email or do the chat. Usually the email is enough. I had a Blu-Ray that kept going down in price after I ordered it and they finally just ended up giving me a $5 gift card since I had to keep contacting them.

 
Well my kanan light fx just got an estimated delivery of January 5th. The hell amazon?

I think I'm going to wait to see if we get an FX ren. My wallet could use some breathing room anyway. I can't really figure out what's giving them such issues with the lighting of the sabers on certain figures. I haven't taken mine apart to see how they work but I'd really love to. Too bad I won't.

E. I did get a free kung fun panda movie voucher from amazon with my kanan purchase, if that'll help anyone decide. Not sure why I got it but I guess I'll take it

Just dropped in here to tell you that I saw some of these figures at "five below". They seem to have some type of starter set that must have come in a bundle. It is a powder blue box a little bigger than a smaller box pc game. I seems to have a base a figure and the game? for $5. I assume they are all 1.0 figures that they also have in bags for sale. I saw the pirate, the guy from incredibles, and one other.

 
I grabbed Vader FX from TRU a few days ago. I went to Gamestop last night and got Obi Wan FX. I ordered Kanan FX from Amazon last night. I ordered Poe, Hulkbuster and Anakin FX this morning.

I could not find Luke FX at Wal Mart. I already have a regular Yoda so I am not happy with having to buy him again. Buying Anakin again is not bad because my son broke the other one.

I was at Five Below a few days ago myself and saw what you are referring to. They basically took the 3DS version of the Disney Infinity 1 Starter set and disassembled/repackaged it, selling the 3DS game and base for $5, and each of the three figures (Jack Sparrow, Sully, Mr. Incredible) for $5 each.

 
I had just been wondering if any DI figures would ever show up at Five Below. I might buy the 3DS version at that price just out of curiosity.

 
Anyone know how much anakin trades into GameStop? Can't find it online. Doubt it's much but something is better then nothing since I rebought his light fx version.
 
Target has Yoda FX for $11.24, but I was able to get it for $10.49 as their listings weren't labeled correctly on which is which.

Yes that is what it was. I didn't have my phone with me, so I was going from memory. :)

They'll give you $2.50 for Anakin, and $6 for Luke. I traded both in, as demand for the FX versions will probably kill the price on regular versions, especially these two, as they're playset inclusions which most everyone has.

they most likely won't be doing a kylo ren fx figure. same reason ashoka and darth maul won't be getting them. the multiple lightsaber thing was a problem. can always hope the hall of galactic heroes thing wasn't a mistake

Ahsoka's dual sabers and Maul's double-sided one require too much power to work properly (J.V. said they had a Maul prototype working, but the glow was too dim to be acceptable). Ren's crossguard adds a comparably small amount of space.

Regardless, if there was going to be a Ren FX I think they would have announced it by now. It makes absolutely no sense for them to skip the entire holiday season and all the mania surrounding the movie premiere if they are going to have a special edition figure from that movie. I think the hall of heroes thing is just leftover code from a scrapped plan.

It makes complete sense because they would get some people to wind up buying doubles they normally wouldn't have if they had been released at the same time. It's all speculation either way at this point, but the idea someone had that they might release the FX one when the bluray releases seems plausible.

Son of a ... Amazon just cancelled my Rise against the Empire Power Disc order because they said they couldn't get more stock before Xmas and meet their delivery schedule.

Between this and that FX character being delayed Amazon must be missing /not getting a shipment or something
 
Someone had said that maybe there were no more FX exclusives because there was no other retailer that would carry it. What about the Disney Store? They can afford to take the risk and they have the means to dump their extra stock on another retailers if necessary.

Just go to an actual B&M store and price match this stuff, problem solved. Seems like more and more people just order online because they dont feel like leaving the house...

 
Do you think we'll ever see an FX Ezra Bridger? There's no technical reason why they didn't make him into one. Maybe there is truth to the "no more retailers" rumor.

 
Gah!  I am weak.  I wasn't going to get all the Light FX figures, but I got the Obi Wan for $5 after the price drop + $5 reward coupon, got Anakin for free after BB rewards, then found Luke at WalMart while waiting for an oil change......I already had Kanan from amazon and, well, if I have four, I might as well get the last two.  Then I found Vader was on sale for $9, so I ordered that and grabbed Yoda from Target.  Damn these figures!  Even my kids think I'm cooky for keeping the collection complete with every new release.

Lol, I got that email too. I was surprised, but figured that must have been the reason.

Oh, so they confirmed it was due to power? I knew it was due to a technical reason and figured that NFC might not be able to power two LEDs.

 
Does anyone need just one 3.0 figure? I need to buy 2 more to finish up my collection so far and need a 3rd figure to get the 3 for $24 deal with GCU.

I'd be happy to have Best Buy ship a figure to someone if you want to send me PayPal to cover the figure. Shipping is free and tax might be as well since I'm in Oregon.

Shoot me a PM if you're interested.
 
What's the deal with the GameStop Exclusive 2.0 Vita starter? I vaguely recall it being less than $39.99 in stores at one point. Has the price gone back up or is there a way to get it for less?

Looking for the cheapest way possible to get spider-man, aside from waiting for the 3.0 black suit re-release. Seems like he's actually kind of rare at the moment. Any recommendations?

Well like usual, word got back to Gamestop that Black Suit Spider-Man was in demand/valuable so Gamestop in typical fashion raised the price they previously lowered... Personally I would try to find one used, trade, or just wait. Gamestop might lower the price again once the new one is released but for now just like xenoblade, legend of Zelda 3ds, and countless other games gamestop exploits, please just wait and don't over pay.
 
OK, I had held off on DI 3.0 but that figure deal is too good to pass up.  I'm buying all the Star Wars stuff.  I can get the game digitally and use the DI 1.0 or 2.0 portal on PS4 right?  Then I guess I need to buy the original trilogy play set...

Getting every Star Wars character on the list worked out perfectly:

Order #1: Vader, Han, Light FX Anakin (didn't even know Light FX was a thing till I just read this thread just now)

Order #2: Chewy, Darth Maul, Kylo Ren

Order #3: Poe Dameron, Obiwan, Yoda

Meh, probably. If I can find them for that cheap ($8) any time soon I'll just return the regular ones. Which ones are at which stores so I can hold off on opening those?

By the way, I also just bought both expansion packs and picked up the two Inside Out figures that aren't part of the pack ;). I'm giving my daughter the blu-ray for Christmas so she'll like those. I just wish I had bought the 3.0 Starter Pack at Fred Meyer the other day when it was $34.99 and there were all the bonus coupons ($10 off $50 and such) that would stack with it. Now I kind of feel like I just need to snag the digital version. I also wish I had grabbed that when it was on sale on PSN... I was really trying to hold off entirely which is why I didn't get either of those when I had the chance. We've decided to play (and go all-in) on Lego Dimensions. I'm not sure I can play another one of these games. I never did play Disney Infinity 2.0 more than about an hour - the Marvel stuff bored me to tears. Star Wars is... different though...

Here's your list (remember their permanent exclusives, unlike most characters you will collect from Disney infinity, with limited stock)

Gamestop: Obi Wan
Amazon: Kanan
ToysRUs: Vader
Walmart: Luke
Target: Yoda
BestBuy: Anakin


Man it so crazy because last week would of been great for you all playsets for 3.0 were 24.99 (19.99 GCU) but just forget about that... I would definitely recommend now that your part of the team (again) is that you don't pay retail (might have to tell your daughter to enjoy what you just bought and wait on the playsets) prices are always fluctuating on theses. $19.99 is not bad for the digital copy, I'll go that route too (I own the wii u version but want the Xbox one version too, if I didn't have to get another portal). Personally I started collecting at 3.0 and did minor back tracking (Toy Story set for my daughters/wife). To me, while Lego dimensions is really cool idea of just not Disney Magic to me.... I like knowing I can have Vader riding Arlo or a T-Rex... That I can play Star Wars themed levels... And the characters themselves are just a joy to have in the house (something that Legos doesn't have). Disney magic is real and powerful with a long beautiful timeliness history... That's why they can charge crazy prices for a ticket and wife's will gladly pay

I wouldn't count on finding any more FX at $8. Yoda is $11.25 ($10.50 with Redcard) at Target and Kanan is $9.99 at Amazon. Obi Wan was $10.00 at GS on Saturday, and Dath Vader was $9.00 at TRU, but those sales are over, though they might have new sales again soon. WM hasn't had a sale on Luke yet, and they don't usually have sales except BF. A lot of stores are sold out of him at regular price, so some, but not a lot, of hope of a sale there. Luckily, this time of year, you can often get good deals from after Christmas to the week after New Years. On the other hand, they said these FX figures were of limited availability, so I wouldn't wait too long. I'd get a Yoda and Kanan now, and keep an eye out on the others.

Don't waste your money on playsets if you've gone the digital route - you can buy the loose shards (crystal pieces that activate the set) on Amazon for less than $5 on the first two Star Wars games. Inside Out is a little more (around the $10 range), and TFA is too new to get good deals on, but wait a while.

Here...

I read it so you don't have to. The only 2 items that interested me (because who cares about peter pan....)

1) Boba Fett delayed (should have bought the playstation saga pack)

2) "“Play Sets with an S on there on purpose, correct”.

So yes, there will be at least another play set in addition to Marvel Battlegrounds coming to Disney Infinity 3.0 in 2016."

You're probably one of them toybox only character lovers :p

I hate that characters like Jack and Tink are under utilized.

BUT thanks to BB's sale, I finished off my collection (so far) until next year :)

 
Ha. I haven't even played with the Toy Box. Marvel and Star Wars definitely have better value with the playsets, but I prefer the character models used for the classic stuff. Worst are the early Pixar ones in that regard, for me.

He said "no comment". When someone asked, when the FX figures were originally announced, if Darth Maul was getting a figure, he said "no," and gave the reason (inadequate power to light both sabers). Were they not planning on releasing Ren, either due to the crossguard, or some other reason, he'd be smart to say "no" now, and myself and all the other holdouts would rush out to buy the regular version.

Sucks about Boba, especially since there's side missions in Twilight and Awakens that require him (or a flying character, of which there are no others) to complete, though I don't think the January date came from official sources.

They need a set that involves all the Disney Originals, maybe using the hero coins like Star Wars, but with Disney characters. I'd even be happy if they just re-themed and re-skinned the Marvel Battlegrounds, swapping the Marvel out with the Disney, like they did with the Toy Box discs last time.

 
I'm glad i let the kid's love for Boba solidify us getting the Saga Bundle. With him up in the air it sucks for those who were waiting for him. Really is an amazing figure.

And here's to hoping for a Rebels play set. Because I would reeeeeeeeeally love that.
