Disney Infinity Stars Wars play sets, characters and trailer officially revealed
Here's your first official look at Star Wars Disney Infinity. The gang's all there and they look great. So far two play sets have been announced with Twilight of the Republic and Rise Against the Empire joining the previously leaked starter pack.
Lightsabers are in, although Disney Infinity's Star Wars is unlikely to have quite as many bits being cut off as the films.
That's Speeder Bikes confirmed as ride-able at least. But what about...
... Snow Speeders and AT-ATs? We're guessing that this little Hoth battle is part of the Rise Against the Empire play set.
Here's a good look at the full Disney Infinity Star Wars cast.
Here's the original Disney Infinity Star Wars Character set listing on Saturn's website. Oddly, the German retailer has since blanked out the post and stated 'Product not yet available' but you can still see all the info and zoom on the image, of which there are some interesting details...
Here's the hero shot of the Starter Set showing Anakin and his Padawan Ahsoka Tano. That suggests this is focusing on the Clone Wars animation BUT, let's take a closer look at the box...
This is probably the most interesting detail - Princess Leia in her Episode IV dress, on an Empire Strike's back Taun-Taun. C3P0 and R2D2 are given, natch, but Obi-Wan in a Pod Racer might give an idea of the activities the Play Set might include. It all suggests the Infinity sets are planning more than just the Clone Wars.
Here's a close up of the Play Set which seems to be the emblem of the Galactic Empire and two crossed lightsabers.
Here's some more box detail, showing some Star Destroyers in their original movie configuration, again suggesting the wider universe will be included later.
And, finally, a close up of the Anakin and Ahsoka Tano figures. Just imagine a classic Han Solo and Chewie styled like that.

ORIGINAL STORY: With Star Wars fever running hotter than it has in decades as Star Wars: The Force Awakens and Star Wars: Battlefront draw closer to release, now's the perfect time for a good ol' Star Wars leak. German electronics chain Saturn posted a premature listing for a Disney Infinity 3.0 Star Wars set today, giving fans a good look at what the new playset might look like.
The ad shows what's presumably a Clone Wars starter pack, containing figures of Anakin and Ahsoka Tano and a playset stylized after the Clone Wars rebel logo. However, there's also an anachronistic cast of characters in the background, including Leia riding a Tauntaun with C-3PO and R2D2 (on what looks to be Hoth) and Obi-Wan Kenobi podracing against Darth Maul. This suggests that the Clone Wars pack is only one of several Disney Infinity Star Wars releases we can expect to see, covering a wide swath of the Star Wars canon.
Little else is known about the pack at this point, since only digital specifications and price (€69.99, or $78.50 and £51.00) appear in the listing. We can likely expect an official release later this year - undoubtedly before Star Wars arrives on the silver screen - but as of this writing the ad is still online, in case you're desperate to pore over it yourself.
