Thing is, Disney's already come right out and said they plan to release a new Disney Infinity game once a year, that will be forwards and backwards compatible. Players not wishing to buy the new game disc will be able to download a patch to make new characters work in Infinity 1's Toybox. Will that mean new statues in Hall of Heroes? I doubt it. I think there will always be some borders between the annual editions, but that all characters will always work in Toybox mode. Disney has made no mention of downloadable playsets, and--considering that a HUGE part of their customer base still has no idea what downloadable content is, I really think they're going to put all their effort into making Infinity 2 a must-have purchase 10 months from now. Any playsets they would release before that would rob content from the sequel, and they want that sequel done on time.
