Knowing Aliexpress, the Peter Pan fig is probably a bootleg, ordered one anyways

As stated it works in the game, it just needs an update.

This figure was never released but was produced. More then likely the manufacturer in China ended up with a ton of these and were never paid for them due to DI going under. As such they sold them to local businesses who are now selling them in Ali.

The seller does state that the figure won't work in the game and that the image included shows all that will happen. I take this to mean that there is no update.

However, thanks to you, I ordered the figure and am holding out a sliver of hope that a developer sometime down the road will leak the file to play as Pan as has been done with games like Propeller Arena for the Dreamcast.

It's simply not going to happen on current gen of consoles with its much tighter security even if the code is leaked. I'm quite certain you won't be able to apply unofficial patch. It's not the Dreamcast which you don't need any chip or mod to hack.

The only possibility is the PC version (I've made backup of both Steam, Standalone and Windows version just if something could happen) but its development was stopped before Zootopia. And PC doesn't use figures anyway.

So, regardless the figure is just a collectible piece that will never work with the game.

I've never order from AliExpress before, but I noticed something interesting while looking at my order on their app. If the seller doesn't ship in a certain amount of time, mine was at a little more than 4 days actively counting down, Ali will just flat out cancel the sale. Sounds like an easy way not to fill orders. This doesn't fill me with confidence. 

 
My Peter Pan order got cancelled for a "coupon violation" and now the price has tripled. Didn't get an email or anything and still no refund on Paypal, just noticed it when I went and looked at my order page.

 
For those still interested, I found a box full of these that I thought I got got rid of while organizing. It's mainly star wars, and guardian of the galaxy and black suit spiderman . Oh and some of those disc packs. All are still in box untouched. I can get a full list of them if anyone still interested in buying these?

So, this morning I came across this here

https://www.reddit.com/r/Disney_Infinity/comments/7o7ipj/hundreds_of_peter_pan_figures_are_being_sold/

Which lead me to buy this here:

http://s.aliexpress.com/niYfYfmA?

Price for me was 5.85 in the app. I bought 2 with a 4 dollar new user coupon.

Not sure if legit or not. But it indicates here (http://disneyinfinity.wikia.com/wiki/Peter_Pan) that some production was made of these and I kind of feel its a pretty low buy in the check it out.

UPDATE: Order is listed as shipped. I was a little nervous yesterday as the order still hadn't listed as shipped and the seller suddenly had more stock listed at 15 bucks each. So, good luck everybody that got in.
 
Mine was canceled and I had ordered within an hour if it being posted. Seems sketchy, I wonder if they bumped the price and sat on original orders until they were auto cancelled after the 4 days.
 
There are a couple sellers out there selling at $7 each, a little more than the $5 from earlier, but not as bad as the $15. Hopefully this order isn't cancelled.
 
Strange, it's actually the same company and they just slashed their $15 price. My guess is they inflated it so they could slash it and make it look like it's on sale. Well see if this order goes thru.

I ended up changing my auto-cancel to the max, which was around 150 days. I then got a shipping confirmation the next day. I'm still holding my excitement back until the figure is in my hands.

 
I got the Peter Pan figure delivered today. According to someone on reddit who spoke to a seller these are figures that had defects and the figure I got does have some damage. There are scratches where his hair is and the bottom of the clear base has some marks in it. I don't mind that much since it was so inexpensive and cool to own an unreleased figure but I can see someone who is a collector being disappointed.

Nice to see they implemented some form of quality control with the later figures after the crap that went down with the 2.0 line and some developing a cloudy film because they were packaged too soon after glue was applied.

My two figures arrived yesterday. I just looked at ebay expecting it to be flooded with them, but it's not really. One of my pans has a scraped knee, the other has a chip in the base like Yoshifan's. 

Can't believe people are spending $100+ on these things. 

 
Received my Peter Pan today. Outside of some extra glue around the neck (which came off), it's in excellent condition. I even got some a new Mickey and Minnie sticker set, but I'll give that to my friend's kids.

Just receieved my figure today and i also got the mickey and minnie sticker sheet haha
 
Ordered from Pop Collectibles Store on 1/9 for $7.39 and it arrived in a small skimpy bubble mailer on 1/26.
It has a two chips in the base which I attributed to the packaging, but after reading these reports, I'm thinking maybe not.
I'm not going to complain for that price.
 

 
Waited a month but didn't receive anything from the seller, the epacket tracking number is not working.

Filed a dispute at aliexpress for refund. But that's not the problem, I now don't have the peter pan and seems out of stock now.

Should have bought some backup.

Anyone has an additional to help a fellow out at reasonable price?

when i order stuff from overseas it takes about 2 to 3 weeks.

But that isn't what that guy said.

It has been sitting in customs for 2 to 3 weeks so it's been at least a month since they ordered it.

But to answer the question, I don't order a ton of overseas stuff that comes with tracking so it's hard for me to say how long it sat in customs.
 
Yeah, it was shipped on Jan 8, and left China on Jan 10. It arrived in the US on Jan 25, where it has been sitting with a status of "Arrived in destination country; awaiting customs clearance".

Not the end of the world, just curious if someone is in the same boat or if maybe I need to start doing something. My searches seem to be equal parts "the shipping party probably filled out the paperwork wrong" and "this is normal, wait it out".
 
gamercandy has new Disney Infinity figures for $1.12 - $1.67, Finding Dory Playset for $2.12 and starter packs for $4.33 - $4.70 all with free shipping.

https://www.ebay.com/sch/m.html?_odkw=&_ssn=gamercandy&_sop=15&hash=item3d5831255a%3Ag%3Av8IAAOSwDVtadHLp&item=263472620890&LH_ItemCondition=3&_osacat=182180&_from=R40&_trksid=m570.l1313&_nkw=disney+infinity&_sacat=182180

I don't know how they can afford to sell anything that cheap with postage more than what the item sells for but I have bought cheap Amiibo before from them and they are reputable.

It just clearance, they probably got them for next to nothing. Those things take up lots of space and they likely don't have it to spare - the space is probably worth more than the loss. They are priced to move, and are probably using USPS media mail which is really cheap because there is no insurance or return postage included (if the post office loses it, it is pretty much just a loss).

I have a full collection I've been meaning to EBay. I figure maybe some of the harder to find ones might sell ok. I intend to keep the Marvel ones though. It's a shame because they are really nicely made figures of popular properties, just made in way too high numbers (which is why this franchise was the first one to go down).

What I have marvel and star wars and some accessories. Some are hard to find and all of them are still in the box untouched lol.
 
Mannn, I was just thinking about this stuff today and how good the toy box editor was despite being waaaaay too advanced for its target audience. Too bad the save files weren't broken up for the various modes, we could still be swapping creations today even with the server shutdown.

 
Those prices are insane! I'm wondering if they're just trying to pad their feedback numbers or do a tax write-off, because it seems like throwing them out would be less of a loss than shipping them. Trying not to order extras of characters I already have just because they're so cheap.

There's a few figures that skyrocketed in price and I think back to when stores had stacks of them for under $5. I also feel stupid that I didn't jump on those $12 Peter Pan figures from that shady seller way back when because it seemed like a scam. Apparently there's a few Peter Pans out there that are in retail packaging, though don't know if those are real.

I still need a Dinosaur World power disc to complete my collection, so if anyone has one to trade...
