GN Version 5.0

A portion of a GamesBeat interview with Disney Infinity vice president of production John Vignocchi and studio founder John Blackburn...

Blackburn: That one’s (Captain EO) a challenge for all the approvals. A lot of times, when we’re working on these things, the stakeholders have rights as to whether or not we can do things and we need to make sure we’re happy with what we do. It happens that Captain EO is the most complicated one that we’ll ever run into.

Vignocchi: I’m working on it! It’s like, George Lucas, Steven Spielberg, [Francis Ford] Coppola, and then the Jackson estate. We’ll make it there one day.

GamesBeat: I want a Figment figure.

Blackburn: That’s the one that comes up the most frequently when we talk about characters from the parks that people really identify with.
