How to Cancel Disney Infinity: Complete Guide
What is Disney Infinity
Disney Infinity was a toys-to-life action-adventure game series published by Disney Interactive Studios and developed primarily by Avalanche Software. The product combined a base video game (console and PC editions) with physical collectible figures and accessory bases that unlocked characters and content in a shared "Toy Box" sandbox environment. The series ran across several editions (1.0, 2.0, 3.0) between 2013 and 2016 and emphasised cross-franchise play using Disney, Pixar, Marvel and Star Wars properties.
From a consumer perspective, Disney Infinity was sold as retail starter packs and add-on figures rather than a subscription service; there were no widely publicised recurring subscription plans tied to Infinity itself. In terms of value, buyers purchased hardware and physical figures (starter pack, play sets, power discs) that unlocked in-game content. Typical Australian retail pricing for starter packs and single-figure add-ons varied by retailer and time; example retail listings show starter packs around A$79 and individual expansions or figure packs commonly listed between A$32 and A$40 in secondary or specialist outlets.
| Item | Typical AU price | Notes / source |
|---|---|---|
| Starter pack (game + base + 2 figures) | A$79 | Major retail listing example. Price varies by store and edition. |
| Play set / expansion | A$40 | Example AU listing for Toy Box expansion. Price varies. |
| Single figure / power disc pack | A$32 | Typical marketplace listings and third-party sellers. |
| Replacement portal base | A$209 | Specialist import listing for replacement portal hardware. |
Why did they cancel Disney Infinity
From a financial perspective the cancellation was driven by market and cost factors: Disney announced in May 2016 that it would discontinue Disney Infinity after a strategic review that found limited growth in the toys-to-life market, high development and inventory costs, and a decision to move away from self-publishing console games toward a licensing model. The company recorded a material charge to write down the business, and closed the internal studio that produced the series.
Key financial drivers reported at the time included a sizeable one-off Infinity charge to Disney’s accounts and rising inventory reserves tied to unsold physical figures. Analysts and reporting sources cited both fierce competition from established rivals in the category and the capital intensity of producing hardware, software and ongoing community support. In short: unit economics deteriorated and the company chose to cut losses and reallocate capital.
How Disney Infinity service termination typically affected purchases and access
Disney's public schedule for winding down Infinity included staged removal of app-store editions and a planned shutdown of online services and community features, with several platform-specific cutoff dates announced after the cancellation. Where digital community or online features were required for gameplay, those features became unavailable following the shutdown. This affected the functional value of some purchases that relied on server-side features.
Practical financial implications for purchasers included: potential loss of online-only features, variable eligibility for refund or remedy depending on the retailer and how the purchase was made (physical product vs digital in-app purchase), and secondary-market value shifts for unopened or collector-grade figures. From a value-demand perspective, inventory write-downs and discontinued support reduced future content supply and therefore altered resale dynamics for collectors and families alike.
Customer experiences with cancelling or coping after Disney Infinity ended
What users report
Players and purchasers who followed the shutdown reported two main emotional and financial reactions: frustration about lost online/community functionality and concern over the residual value of physical figures and play sets. Coverage at the time captured fans expressing disappointment at a beloved Toy Box community being wound down, while other voices focused on the business reality of unsold inventory and corporate reallocation of resources.
There were also reports that app-store editions and some platform variants were deprecated earlier than others; owners of mobile or app-store versions noted limited updates and eventual removal from app stores, which meant purchased app copies could become unsupported even if still installed. MacRumors and other coverage summarised the staged removals and loss of server features.
Recurring issues and practical takeaways
- Loss of server-dependent features: If gameplay relied on online services or community sharing, functionality could stop working after the shutdown. Keep that in mind when assessing value of similar purchases.
- Retail vs digital purchase differences: Physical starter packs retained offline play value; digital-only items tied to online services lost more value when servers closed. Assess purchases by how much they depend on continuing service.
- Inventory and resale effects: Overproduction at scale can depress collectible value; some reporting identified excess figures and inventory reserves as a corporate cost driver. That can reduce the recoup potential through resale for buyers.
- Refund outcomes vary: Remedies depended on where the game or accessory was bought and which consumer protections applied; centralized online services removal does not automatically mean refunds for all purchasers.
Documentation checklist for Disney Infinity issues
- Proof of purchase: order number, retailer invoice or receipt, date of purchase.
- Product identifiers: edition (1.0/2.0/3.0), SKU, figure names, portal serial if present.
- Payment evidence: bank or card statement entries showing the transaction.
- Screenshots or archived pages: store listing or product description present at time of purchase, especially if a feature was later removed.
- Timeline notes: dates when services stopped working and any official notices or press statements you relied on.
- Condition photos: images of physical items if seeking remedy for faulty or damaged goods.
How refunds, proration and consumer rights applied to Disney Infinity purchases
From a legal/consumer-rights perspective, remedies were determined by the type of purchase and existing protections under Australian consumer law. Digital content and services are covered by consumer guarantees; if a digital product or service is not of acceptable quality or does not perform as described, a remedy may be available. Remedies vary by seriousness of the failure and purchase circumstances.
Because Disney Infinity was primarily retail/one-off sales rather than a recurring subscription, typical issues were not about cancelling a recurring billing stream but about the functional loss of purchased features or the quality of goods. Where ongoing online features were essential to what was sold, that could affect the assessment of whether the product met consumer guarantees.
| Issue | Typical legal/financial effect |
|---|---|
| Server shutdown for online features | Possible remedy if online features were a core part of what was sold; outcome varies by merchant and platform. |
| Physical product damaged or faulty | Standard consumer guarantees apply: repair, replacement or refund depending on severity and reasonable expectations. |
| Digital app removed from store | Loss of updates/support; remedies depend on how the product was represented and whether core functionality was lost. |
Costs, resale and budget considerations
From a budget optimisation view, Disney Infinity purchases combined hardware, software and collectibles, creating different risk profiles: the physical items had resale/collector value but that value is volatile and sensitive to corporate support decisions. When evaluating the cost-benefit of similar purchases, separate the one-off hardware spend from ongoing content risk. For example, a starter pack purchased at A$79 that retains offline playability preserves more of its intrinsic value than a digital-only item whose servers are essential.
If you are assessing whether to keep, sell, or hold stocks of figures, compare current market listings and recent sale prices rather than relying on original RRP. Secondary-market prices seen on AU marketplaces can vary widely.
Alternatives and comparisons to Disney Infinity
| Service / product | Model | Support / status note |
|---|---|---|
| Skylanders | Toys-to-life with starter packs and figures | Historically a category leader; market trends and lifecycle similar to Infinity. |
| Nintendo amiibo | Figure-based unlockables integrated with console/handheld Nintendo titles | Different model: figures are broadly compatible across multiple Nintendo titles and have longer-term collector demand. |
| Lego Dimensions | Toys-to-life with licensed play sets | Also discontinued by its publisher; illustrates category volatility. |
Practical dispute and financial pathways (what to expect)
If you consider seeking a remedy for a purchase that materially lost value because of Disney Infinity’s service changes, expect case-by-case outcomes. Remedies are influenced by where the purchase was made (retailer, third-party marketplace or app store), how the item was represented at point of sale, and whether the loss was a major failure under consumer law. Keep documentation and a clear chronology to support any claim.
In many instances consumers reported mixed outcomes: some retailers treated the product as a standard retail sale and offered limited remedies; others faced public scrutiny over representations about refunds and consumer guarantees. The ACCC’s enforcement activity around misleading refund statements highlights that statutory rights cannot be contractually excluded.

What to do after cancelling or after service termination for Disney Infinity
Actively monitor your payment records and any entries linked to the original purchase; document unexpected or duplicate charges. Keep the checklist items above in a single folder so you can reference transaction dates and product identifiers quickly.
Evaluate whether the physical items retain collector or functional value; if resale is an option, collect market comparables to set a realistic price rather than assuming a full RRP recovery. Factor in resale fees and postage when modelling potential recovery.
Review the product listing and any contemporaneous marketing copy that described features you relied on; this helps establish whether a core feature was removed in a way that could qualify as a major failure under consumer guarantees. If you pursue remedies, present a clear timeline and evidence of the loss of function or misrepresentation.
Finally, treat the Disney Infinity case as a financial lesson when budgeting for future entertainment purchases that mix hardware and cloud or server-dependent services: discount the future value of server-reliant features when calculating expected total cost of ownership. From a financial perspective, prefer purchases where offline value is retained if you seek lower long-term risk.
