Marvel’s unlikely band of galactic criminals on the verge of achieving heroism will be up to something good, something bad, and a little of both with the official announcement of the Guardians of the Galaxy Play Set for Disney Infinity 2.0 Marvel Super Heroes.
Groot, Rocket Raccoon, Gamora, Drax the Destroyer and their leader, the human known as Star-Lord, are all receiving the plasticized treatment for inclusion in their own Disney Infinity 2.0 Play Set. They’ll be joined on select missions by Iron Man and Nova, both of whom appear within the Play Set in the reveal trailer that you can watch below. Mission givers include Cosmo, The Collector and Yondu.
In addition to finally confirming the Guardians of the Galaxy Play Set, Disney Interactive has revealed a total of six Power Discs based on the upcoming film. They include:
- Space Armor – Unlock Gamora’s out of this world Space Armor costume for added protection against enemies. Who says fashion can’t be functional too?
- Marvel Team-Up: Yondu – Fight alongside this powerful, arrow shooting ally and send enemies running for their lives
- Groot’s Roots – Theme out your Toy Box world with Groot’s Roots. It’s sure to grow on you!
- Groot’s View – Embrace your inner green thumb and theme Toy Box skies out Groot-style
- Star-Lord’s Galaxy – Turn your Toy Box into Knowhere – Star-Lord’s home base in the Galaxy
- The Rip – Turn Toy Box skies into the skies of Knowhere with this Power Disc and transport yourself to the outer edge of all space and time
Over in the new Toy Box 2.0, a new structured game called Attack on Asgard will allow the Guardians of the Galaxy characters to repel the attack of Frost Giants on Odin’s Palace at the command of Loki.
Here’s the official synopsis for the Guardians of the Galaxy Play Set:
The Guardians of the Galaxy Play Set follows Star-Lord and his fellow Guardians as they arrive at Knowhere, having just stolen a powerful cosmic object from the villainous Ronan the Accuser. Players will guide the team as they race to protect Knowhere from Ronan and his attacking Sakaaran fleet while keeping their newly liberated item safe from the villain’s evil grasp.
The Disney Infinity 2.0 Guardians of the Galaxy Play Set and figures will be released this fall, presumably after the release of the Starter Pack in September.
