Game-Breaker: Sorcerer's Apprentice Mickey Mouse was by far the most powerful character in 1.0, being easily capable of wiping out rooms of enemies with his strong, far-reaching melee attack and a spammable, multi-hit projectile that could stunlock and destroy numerous enemies by itself."Funny Aneurysm" Moment: One of Vanellope's idle quotes in 1.0 was "Hope they don't miss me in Sugar Rush." This may be seen in a darker light when she eventually says the other racers wouldn't miss her (because she's one of 16 racers) in Ralph Breaks the Internet.
One can see this with the praise heaped upon Baloo when his design was shown to be based on the 1967 animated movie instead of the 2016 remake compared to the mixed reception that the Alice in Wonderland (2010) figures have received thus far. As a result of this, figures that do end upon being based on their animated versions tend to be better received than those that are based on remakes. Fan requests for Disney Animated Canon characters with existing or impending remakes of their original movies usually are asking for the characters as they appeared in their original movies rather than those of the remakes.In general, most of the Marvel characters more closely resemble their Marvel Cinematic Universe or recent animated counterparts, rather than their classic comic incarnations.It also features Carol Danvers in her Captain Marvel persona rather than as Ms. In a notable exception, the game uses Sam Alexander, the second Nova, rather than Richard Rider, the original Nova. This makes him the second oldest character in the entire game behind Mickey. The exceptions are Mickey Mouse (of course), Jack Skellington and Maleficent, and that's not counting the Marvel heroes: the oldest character amongst the latter group is Captain America, who made his debut in 1941. The majority of the roster is comprised of characters from source material originating from the 2000s. Of course, that didn't happen, and Dimensions eventually went the way of the others and was cancelled. The possibility of the Disney, Marvel, or Star Wars characters being added to the game didn't sit well with some parts of the fanbase, who wanted to see Infinity Un-Cancelled and have new characters added to that instead. There was also a minor rivalry with the fanbase of LEGO Dimensions.Of course, Skylanders withering on the vine shortly afterwards thanks to the "interactive toys" craze dying out rendered this rivalry moot. Activision's announcement of the next installment of Skylanders - Skylanders: Imaginators - had the Infiniteers already understandably miffed, seeing as how soon it had been since the announcement of Infinity's end.but then the official trailer chose to use the term "Infinite Possibilities" ( one of Infinity's own Tag Lines) to describe their gameplay. Disney Infinity fans clashed with those of Skylanders after they were still reeling from the sudden cancellation of Infinity.Unfortunately, the series' cancellation meant that ultimately none of them got in the game. There was a bit of an in-fandom "pick-me-no-pick-me" rivalry between those who wanted Dipper and Mabel as playable characters in the game and those who wanted Darkwing Duck instead, with folks on either side insisting that their character(s) be added instead of the other(s).Back before 3.0 was cancelled, the voice actor for Kim Possible, Christy Carlson Romano, tweeted that she was apparently recording for something.The fact that he's based on the classic animated film certainly helps. While Big Hero 6 fans made Hiro a fan-favorite for being such a powerful character.Speaking of top sellers, the top 3 most pre-ordered single figures in 2.0 are Rocket Raccoon, the previously mentioned Venom, and Groot.Elsa, a Toy Box only character who wasn't even included in the original game intro, was name-dropped by Infinity's executive producer as one of the top selling figures from the first game.According to the developers, this was the reason Stitch and Tinker Bell were added in.By the time of 2.0's release, she was hard to find in stores due to high demand. Fans have said she's the most powerful playable character in the game. Parodied in the Toy Box Takeover where Syndrome complains about Wreck-It Ralph, Randy, Hector Barbossa, and Maleficent representing villains when they're more "grey area" characters.
