Disney Infinity (& giveaway!)

You may have heard!


Disney Infinity, a game I worked on, just came out on Sunday.  You can probably find it at your neighborhood friendly Target or Walmart, or even your neighborhood unfriendly ones.  It was funner to work on than feeding a stork sugar.  

I'm actually pretty terrible at playing video games.  In fact I'm so bad I couldn't even finish a race on the Cars game.  No no...not place...finish.  I'd always end up going the wrong way and then careening off the cliff like a maligned Prognoviach.  My coworkers and I would all have a jolly good laugh and then they would tie me up and throw me in the dumpster behind the building and then they would lock all the doors and not let me back in!  Hahaha!  What scamps they are!

I was lucky enough to help with the Cars & Monsters U cinematics, & some of the Lone Ranger & Pirates boards as well.  AND if you want an insider secret...the Violet Parr action figure is by far the most powerful character in the game.  She has force field and invisibility.  This girl packs a punch.

SO!  In honor of Infinity, YOU can get the most powerful player in the game!  Cos I'm giving away Violet Parr!


 All you need to do is comment below and say "want!" and at the end of 1 week...midnight, August 27th...a winner is drawn!  The giveaway is open to anyone from anywhere, and I'll be sure to get your address after the drawing.

So you know how cool the Violet figure is...here's a top view:

 I took these pictures in my car, late at night.  I felt like a drug dealer.  Tee hee.

Great fun to work on!  I am a lucky kid ^_^

    Aw man, I've been really excited for this game, but I don't have the money for a WiiU. If only there were a Gamboy version...
    I will definitely purchase it when I have the funds.

    Question: Is this similar to Skylanders, where you get figurines, put them on a platform, and then they are available to play in the video game?

    @Kim Reid... Don't know if you'll see this. I don't know Heather (although I hear that we work in the same department. I'm worried that this makes me sound like a stalker). I read her book Entwined and found her blog. She makes me laugh with her posts.
