Oh man, when I check the order status page, it says it's Ready for Pickup. I just got an email that it would be ready for pickup tomorrow, 9/19. Is anyone planning on making a trip this morning? It's kinda far for me to drive out and get shot down.I just got my "your order is ready for pickup" text. It shows ready for pickup online as well in my order.
ebay = ) and me i just got my confirmation from bestbuy to pickup my disc pack tomorrow that the release date of the figures and disc changed to 9/19 but the game doesnt come out till 9/23 good for me i can start looking for the discs i want hahaWhere are you getting this info?
You need to buy the disc for the platform you want to play on. All the discs, figures and playsets are compatible across all platforms. The 360 base is only good for the 360. The XB1 base only works on XB1. Now, the Wii, Wii U and PS3 base works with each other and the PS4. Hope that helps.I had the Xbox 360 Starter kit and based on compatibility I'm screwed with Xbox One.
In order to ditch that platform, I have a Wii U, and plan on buying the Wii U Starter Kit to get the 2.0 version, since I believe the Wii U 1.0 game is free digitally.
I am hoping the disc/figures/playset crystal from the 360 will work on the Wii U.
My question is from past time generally how much do these starter kits drop in price near BF? I have BB GCU but wasn't sure if I should just wait till BF.
Thanks yeah the Wii U is offering the Infinity 1.0 digital disc download so I guess I should just buy the Wii U pack.You need to buy the disc for the platform you want to play on.

Sorry for my ignorance but what $10 RZ certificate?Just called my Best Buy and they said the email popped up because it was scanned in the system since they just received them, but they wouldn't be able to sell anything until release date. Boo.
Side note: I was figuring out the deal between Amazon's Premium bundle and Best Buy's promotions. I've been backing Amazon's bundles since they released but I figured I'm going to get an extra figure on top of that. When I figured it all in, including BB's buy 2 get 1 free figure + their free pre order figure + the $10 RZ, you're getting pretty much the same deal exactly. You actually come out on top at Best Buy thanks to the $10 RZ cert.
Same hereJust got the 2nd date change email that moved the pickup date back to the 23rd. /sadface
Disney Infinity Does Not Qualify for a $10 RZ certificate. Not sure what that reference is referring to above.Sorry for my ignorance but what $10 RZ certificate?
For preordering certain games you get a $10 certificate from Reward Zone. But I was mistaken so it doesn't matter. Go me!Sorry for my ignorance but what $10 RZ certificate?
I think the Best Buy site is down right now. Trying to buy a movie and can't add it to the cart without it failing. Tried two different browers so not sure what is going on with them at the momentI could've sworn it did qualify for a $10 RZ (Reward Zone) cert!
Also, I have all the stuff in my BB cart that comes in the Amazon bundle. Just refreshed it and it's almost all sold out!! Did the word of it being available for pick up tomorrow spread to slick deals or something?
Edit: Just checked. Yeah, no RZ cert. Guess I got excited and just assumed. Oh well, makes Amazon the best again (like it ever changed)
It might just be the Best Buy site being glitchy. I was having a lot of trouble checking out with an order last night. Someone mentioned in another thread that they updated the site earlier this week and it's been really unstable.I could've sworn it did qualify for a $10 RZ (Reward Zone) cert!

No one knows for sure, but I will be extremely upset if they ship my Marvel pack and then do not ship the PS4 Toy Box pack in November. In fact that could probably be called fraud, so hopefully they won't do that.Here's my question. A lot of us pre-ordered the starter kit from Best Buy with the Toy Box Pack for free. After we pick up the starter kit, are they able to cancel the Toy Box Pack? And if so, would they even give us just a single figure instead.
Same here, I went for that instead of the free figure at first since it was first posted as free with the starter pack and not just on it's own.No one knows for sure, but I will be extremely upset if they ship my Marvel pack and then do not ship the PS4 Toy Box pack in November.

I believe that's the literal definition of bait and switch. It's illegal.Here's my question. A lot of us pre-ordered the starter kit from Best Buy with the Toy Box Pack for free.

Actually, it's not. There was no connection between buying the starter pack and the "free" toy box pack. Many people apparently just "bought" the free toy box pack without any starter pack. Bait and switch would be advertising that if you buy a starter pack, you get a toy box pack free. That was never the case.I believe that's the literal definition of bait and switch. It's illegal.
If that happens, I will be furious.
This. Just because the system allows you to checkout with the item guarantees you nothing. In fact, the fine print on the website says they have the right to cancel any order, for any reason, at any time. and by using the website you agree to those terms.Actually, it's not.

All of that stuff will work together. The 3DS game is a steaming pile but the stuff that comes with it works on the base you'll get with the PS4 version of 2.0. Just don't mix in any 360 stuff and you'll be OK.Hello all,
I am new to Infinity. My wife isn't much of a gamer but enjoys Lego games and Skylanders so we thought we would give it a try. I have 2.0 preordered but I am somewhat interested in picking up 1.0 but I've been waiting to score a deal.
I am in the unique position that I have all consoles. Does anyone know if the following will work to play Infinity 1.0 content?
2.0 PS4 Marvel Starter Pack
Free 1.0 Wii U Download or PC
Cheap 3DS copy of 1.0 (for figures, power discs, and playsets)
I can't seem to find a clearcut answer if the 3ds playset is the same as the console versions. Anyone know offhand?
I would have no problem if Best Buy simply canceled my whole order. But if they ship me part of it and then cancel another part, I will be pissed.This.

Yes it was. When you went through the ordering process, it made it very clear that you were selecting a free item to go with your starter pack order, and the PS4 Toy Box pack was one of those free options. It's true that you could order it separately for free, but that was a different ordering process.Actually, it's not. There was no connection between buying the starter pack and the "free" toy box pack. Many people apparently just "bought" the free toy box pack without any starter pack. Bait and switch would be advertising that if you buy a starter pack, you get a toy box pack free. That was never the case.
Why? Getting the toy box for $0 was a glitch and you didn't need to order the starter set to get that pricing. They never promised you a free toy box pack if you bought the starter set. You took advantage of a glitch and if it works out fine. If it doesn't, that's the risk you took.I would have no problem if Best Buy simply canceled my whole order. But if they ship me part of it and then cancel another part, I will be pissed.
The base you get with the PS4 2.0 Starter Pack is compatible with the Wii U and the free digital download, so all you'll need is the figures/play sets from 1.0. I know they've said that Mr. Incredible/Jack Sparrow/Sully will be available as individual figures eventually, but the triple play set from the 1.0 Starter Pack won't be, so you'll have to hit eBay for that Incredibles/Pirates/MU play set piece. 3DS is not the same, I wouldn't both with it honestly.Hello all,

Incorrect, see my message above.They never promised you a free toy box pack if you bought the starter set.
I thought the 3ds came with the triple play set. Is this not the case? It looks like it does from the video I saw.The base you get with the PS4 2.0 Starter Pack is compatible with the Wii U and the free digital download, so all you'll need is the figures/play sets from 1.0.

Agree the game you get with the 3DS is not the same as you get some hybrid version and a different Portal. The key to the 3DS set is you get the three figures (Jack Sparrow, Mr. Incredible, and Sully) and the Playset piece.

It does come with the piece. You should be all setI thought the 3ds came with the triple play set. Is this not the case? It looks like it does from the video I saw.
The only reason I even consider it is because the cost of the 3ds version is only $27.99 at best buy. Factor in Gamer's club and for about $22 you get three figures, power discs, and the triple play set.
Now if it doesn't come with the triple play set, it may not be worth it.
Are you sure you're not confusing the Guardians of the Galaxy or Spiderman playsets with the toy box? As far as I recall, the toy box was never offered as the freebie. People ordered it with the starter set to hide the fact that there was a glitch, but I never recall seeing it as a check box option included with a starter kit purchase.Incorrect, see my message above.
Thanks, this looks like the cheapest ticket to entry for a new comer. Wii U or PC for the win.It does come with the piece. You should be all set

Looks like it does, sorry for my mistake on that, lol, you should be able to find some great deals around Black Friday as well, to catch up on figures, etc... Best Buy has Phineas & Agent P for $10.99 as a 2-pack right now.Agree the game you get with the 3DS is not the same as you get some hybrid version and a different Portal.

So buying a 2.0 version for Wii U, PS4, PS3 will get you the same portal that is compatible with the Wii U free download. Buying the 3DS version of 1.0 will get you everything else you need to get started.
Hope that helps
No, I am not confusing it. The PS4 Toy Box set was absolutely one of the check box options that you could select when purchasing a starter pack. In fact that was how people first found the deal/glitch - it was only discovered later that you could order that pack alone for free.Are you sure you're not confusing the Guardians of the Galaxy or Spiderman playsets with the toy box?

Yes. Picked that up and the three $24.99 playsets which are $20 with GCU. Cars, Lone Ranger, and Toy Story.Looks like it does, sorry for my mistake on that, lol, you should be able to find some great deals around Black Friday as well, to catch up on figures, etc...

It's still on the list today, in the "free figure" group toward the bottom, it just doesn't show up in the cart as $0.00 anymore.Are you sure you're not confusing the Guardians of the Galaxy or Spiderman playsets with the toy box?

We are all in the same boat here as most of us (I believe) took advantage of this but lets call it what it is. It was a glitch. The intention was clearly to get a free figure with the preorder of a starter set. The option was there to get the toybox set for free but that does not imply consent by Best Buy in the slightest.Yes it was.

Of course it's a glitch. And as I said, I will have no problem with Best Buy if they simply cancel my whole order because of that. But if their ordering process promises I'm getting two items for a certain price, then they ship one item and don't ship the other, I have a big problem with that. If it happens I'll just return the original set (it will still be sealed since it's intended as a Christmas gift) for a refund. If they refused the return for any reason I would go as far as doing a credit card chargeback.We are all in the same boat here as most of us (I believe) took advantage of this but lets call it what it is.

If it goes through, awesome. I will gladly take it. But lets not act like this was intended to be the case and there is any outrage to be had if it doesnt go through.
