Preservation edition · October 3, 2026 · Geekenstein Editorial
Historical source: David Rhinehart; August 5, 2013. This is a newly written, condensed account of the retained coverage, with original opinions attributed to their writer. It is not a full-text reproduction or a new firsthand review.
The historical coverage
Rhinehart’s feature argued for anticipating Disney Infinity despite comparisons with Skylanders. Its five-reasons format was an expression of enthusiasm before release, with the prospect of constructing a personal Disney playground central to its appeal.
The writer’s interest extended beyond a list of physical figures to the worlds and creative possibilities associated with Disney properties. That is a different intent from a technical compatibility chart or a later judgment of the finished game.
This edition preserves the feature as a dated anticipation piece, rather than converting it into a current recommendation to buy an unsupported online product. The subsequent review and John Day interview are separate historical coverage. The new collector guide distinguishes Toy Box use, Play Sets, figures, discs and bases so that the feature’s creative promise is not confused with universal compatibility.
A present-day reading note
The following is new editorial analysis, separate from the historical writer’s words and play report.
For a household interested in one story world, begin with the edition and Play Set that support it. For an open-ended building session, verify Toy Box figure compatibility. A large figure collection is not automatically a better starting bundle if the base or software is missing.
