Thwarts the leakers? The Tron stuff was in the game and most of it was viewable in the Hall of Heroes without any shenanigans. You should probably be hoping it thwarts Avalanche pushing the wrong button when they update next time.

Perhaps I may have phrased it wrong. What I meant was that there was so much information that leaked out early, whether through unofficial sources or through employee error, that we've had very few real surprises like Jasmine and some of the Power Discs. I know that JV hasn't been happy about all that info getting out early. I'm just hoping we get one last surprise, straight from the developers, that we did not see coming. And I think that actual internet DLC would be the perfect opportunity for that.

"Thwarts the leakers" may have not been the right term to use and I'm sorry for that. :(

Does anyone know a release date for these two yet?

Like others here, I am concerned that his face is permanently hidden, they may as well have marketed "faceless Tron figure who we are calling Sam".
I don't want him to keep spamming the lightcycle as an attack, especially as it's a vehicle.
Hopefully it's an optional attack and I can disable it just by not going down that route in his skill tree.
But realistically, he'll probably be one of my "inactive figures", these are the ones that disappoint me for one reason or another and I just put them on a shelf never to be used again.

I was concerned that Quorra is using a weapon I'd never really seen to websling, but if it's in the movie, then it's okay to do so.
I hope I can control when the cable is used though, I don't like it when the game inserts a ranged weapon attack during your melee weapon combo.
I want her fighting to be like Spiderman, where he fistpunches, but you use another button to use his weblines as a ranged attack.

Sams helmet with Mask is in the movie, ITs a transparent face shield with his mouth and chin peaking out. In the DI model its the same except the dome isn't transparent but his mouth and chin are visible. Its no different to Ironman always having the helmet on.

Quorra does actually have a websling thing in the movie too. Its only used once when shes getting past Clu to defend Sam at the portal, She also has a sword in the film a bit like a lightsaber.
I'm really hoping the Clu modelis a sign hes going to be a figure as while is looks like hes a costume disc figure its not a really thing that makes sence.

I checked the movie, the only time he wears a helmet is on a lightcycle or in the battle arena, the rest of the time he doesn't.
So it's still abnormal that his figure has the helmet.

And yes, it is different, we know why Iron Man always wears the helmet, because it's where the display interfaces and neural scanning field is.
Sam's helmet is just something to keep his head intact.

Additionally, Quorra initially wears a helmet the first time we see her, but does her figure come with one?

It may come down to likeness issues. Maybe Olivia Wilde was okay with it, but Garrett Hedlund wasn't?

^This is true. But usually there are work around ways in designing look-alike characters. Tron in Uprising looks like Bruce Boxleitner, but still looks unique. Maybe they might have just felt that Sam would look cooler with his helmet.

That being said, I think Olivia Wilde gave permission to use her likeness in Tron: Uprising. I think she may have even provided the voice as well.

Olivia did provide the voice of Quorra in Tron: Uprising. I think they just wanted to have one of the figures wear a helmet because it's Tron figures and one of them should have a helmet.

That also makes sense too, haha. I'm not complaining though. The helmets are neat. :D
