We are now less than 20 days out from the release of Disney Infinity and while the search will be on for characters to play with in the game’s Play and Toy Box Modes there is something else that will enhance gameplay and that something is the power discs. I just received a press release detailing the 20 power discs that will be in wave 1. There are even 3 Rare Hexagonal Discs. Some discs power up your figure. Some give them items or vehicles to use and some change the look of the terrain. There are so many possibilities and combinations for you to use in the game. Check out this fun trailer of the different things that power discs can do.

Pretty fun, huh? I thought so. I’m really looking forward to playing this game when it arrives. I’ll be telling you all about it, too. Below is the full reveal of the power discs from wave one. Check it out. Continue reading Wave 1 of Disney Infinity Power Discs Revealed →

Photo-A-Day #3034

This is one of those times where I shot the photo yesterday but am doing the write up today.

I received an Air Hogs Stunt Plane to try out and review. I’ll be reviewing it soon. I wanted to try out the plane while on the Cape because of the huge ball field where I could fly it. Thing was, it was way too windy to do any sort of flying. So, I had this charged plane and no place to fly it.

I figured that I would try and fly it in the yard. I wanted to see how powerful it was and see if I could control it well. The second time in the air I flew it right into the neighbor’s tree, on their side of the fence so I went over with Andrew and a SkyBall and got it out of the tree. A SkyBall is a handy thing to have when getting planes out of trees.

Tomorrow morning I’m going to take the plane, and Eva, over to the big field across the street and see how well it flies, and how well I can fly it.

Okay, so I did fly it this morning (the day on which I am writing this post). Man, it is fun to fly. I’ve got to get a better hang of it and that would be better accomplished on my own without the princess of commentary along for the ride. I did get it stuck in a tree once but used the SkyBall again and got it right down, at the expense of the SkyBall, which stayed in the tree. It is firmly wedged there on a very high branch. Whoops.
