Disney Infinity 2.0 variant is black suit Spider Man

Maybe this means Nova will be released as a standalone in May? I wonder if they will rework cutscenes for Black Spidey as well. It's such an odd option. I'm assuming the costume disc will now make him red and blue.

It looks like it doesn't have the webbing regular Spidey has!

I was hoping for something more like the toybox pack with the other two game discs...

What if it is Peter Parker's friend who's name escapes me who wears the suit in the show

They better release another Disney version with a Maleficent variant.

Cool, though I was personally hoping for a different character, like US Agent or Red Hulk.

To be honest, based on the replies, I think they actually made a good decision if they are going to put exclusives in starter packs to begin with.

As has been pointed out - we already have the costume disc, so unless there is some other exclusive content in-game, it's not necessary to expand the game (wonder if it will even have a hologram in HoSH? Since the holograms are all the same color, that would be kind of redundant). So folks don't have to feel like they "need" it if it's in-game content they care about. And for figure collectors (example, folks that have collected both the "silver star" Mickey and the regular) they have a new lower-run figure to go after.

That's kind of nice - because how many folks really want to spend the $$ on a PS Vita pack just to get him if he had some exclusive in-game use?

Just how I am looking at it. Though it is kind of funny that it's a variant that even I with my lack of paint skills could probably emulate myself - and if you permanently attach the power disc chip, you pretty much can make your own.


Oh, and to build on what a few others have mentioned - yes, I do think this is very well both the costume discs and the variants are a test - for Star Wars. Many Star Wars characters have alternate outfits, and I think they are trying to figure out the best way to do that. There are quite a few things about Marvel Infinity that I think are really just precursors to Star Wars - testing and implementing certain systems in advance. For example, there isn't a lot of vehicle combat in Marvel films, but we sure have a lot of it here - when I was playing some of the vehicle combat in Spiderman Playset, all I could think of was Speederbikes. The turret stuff as well - that just screamed Star Wars to me.

Talk about a lazy choice...
I already have the disc, so I will not be picking this up.

It should have been Original Mickey, Hero's Duty Wreck it Ralph, etc.
Something we don't have.
