These two might be a kind of test: If people buy them digitally, they know if figures will sell. Since Rocket Racoon is the most bought figure (I think that's correct?), I think there would be a similarity with digitally bought rockets, being that they would be high. If they are in the works for DI3 maybe this was just a sneak peek/test to see how the consumers react to TRON, since it's more for older generations. If they sell x amount of digital figures, they can forecast that they can sell x amount of physical figures.

It's only slightly better than "the possibilities are infinite!"


Not trying to call anyone out here, but I'm still annoyed that JV apparently just decided to break his promise to "do something nice for iOS users". A few vague "hang in there guys!" isn't going to win me back yet.

as i have stated previously this is not a decision that will have been made by JV. do not personally attack or blame him for this decision.

Not blaming him, but if he is going to put himself out there no answer is better than PR double talk. I feel for him I do but his best bet right now would be to let the Disney Infinity accounts address these issues.

Sorry just realized the warning not quite sure what I said that was construed as an attack? However I realize I'm a guest here and you all have been very helpful to me. I'd hate to be banned over an issue like this.

JV is the VP of Disney Infinity, right?
That means no matter what other people do in the company he is and always will be responsible for what others created.
No matter what, he is the head of it.
I'm sorry for saying this, but thats the unsalted truth.

There are people higher within the company and in other departments of Disney that have the power to override or disrupt the decision making process. JV does not have the final say, there are many parties that need to be consulted on even minor decisions. The politics within a large corporation like Disney are complicated. John is a huge supporter of the community and we must show a little respect, I can't think of another VP within a multinational corporation that communicates as openly and frequently with fans and consumers, (he does this off his own back, it's not part of his job description). You can bet that the outcry was noticed by whomever called the shots on the digital tron characters, hopefully that will inform any future decisions regarding this type of content.

Did they ever make the light cycle and jet available? It seems weird to me that the light runner and recognizer were made available but not the light cycle. Equally disappointing to not getting the figures if you ask me.
