Earlier today, Disney vice president of of production John Vignocchi did an interview with IGN at E3 and he was asked if Star Wars was ever going to be in LEGO Dimensions and not surprisingly, the answer was an adamant no.

Don’t count on it.

Since Star Wars was announced to be released on Infinity 3.0 yesterday, it was pretty much guaranteed that the theme would not be coming to LEGO Dimensions. Vignocchi notes that “introducing Star Wars to LEGO Dimensions would cannibalize the Disney Infinity business. Good for everyone except Disney Infinity.” I pretty much said the same thing in April when I was speculating on possible LEGO Dimensions themes. Vignocchi also stated that the licensees of Infinity don’t want to mix franchises which is pretty much what LEGO Dimensions is doing.

With the exclusion of Star Wars as a theme for LEGO Dimensions, I really don’t see fans being that disappointed because Dimensions is already filled with many different characters from a lot of themes including some new ones like Portal 2, Wizard of Oz, and Doctor Who.

There have been readers who have asked the same question about Marvel being in LEGO Dimensions and the answer will probably be the same as Star Wars since Disney owns them as well.

Interactive Entertainment has released another video today showing off the details of the Toy Pad and how it works in conjunction with the game. The Toy Pad allows a combination of seven different characters, objects, and vehicles to be simultaneously be brought into the game at a single time. It features three distinct areas of RGB light technology that gives a range of colors to provide the players hints and puzzles to solve.

There are five modes available on the Toy Pad: SHIFT, SCALE, CHROMA, ELEMENTAL, and LOCATE. SHIFT mode is activated when characters need to use colored vortexes to move around the area or to avoid danger. The player must physically move the LEGO minifigure to the right colored light section on the Toy Pad which allows them to transport the character to the vortex of their choosing.

By using SCALE, players can physically place the LEGO minifigure on a distinct colored section of the Toy Pad and they can either grow their character to a larger size or shrink them down to micro-size to be able to compleze puzzles or access new areas.

With CHROMA, you change each character into a specific color and you use them at certain points with their respective colors to progress in the puzzle.

For ELEMENTAL, the characters can gain different elemental abilities to use including lightning, fire, water, and wind. You can use those abilities to fight enemies or to use on puzzles.

Finally, LOCATE is … Continue
