Disney Emoji Blitz is a match-3 puzzle game that has you beating high scores and unlocking your favorite Disney and Pixar characters. The game also features keyboard support for your mobile device with over 400 unique emojis to unlock.

Each character has a unique ability that can be unleashed once the blitz meter is filled. For example, Sully can scare emojis off the board for extra points, while Elsa can Freeze away the entire board. The game features tons of prizes and wonderful animations.

It is really exciting to unlock new emojis for your keyboard that you can use to send to your friends through text messages. Some of the more interesting emojis include: churros, Mickey ice cream bars, Mickey ears, and the Matterhorn.

Disney Emoji Blitz is available now on the App Store and Google Play.

We now have images of three more of the cancelled 12-inch premium figures that were in development for Disney Infinity.

Thanks again to Infiniteer Adventures for digging up and sharing all the latest news on these cancelled Disney Infinity plans. Just as a reminder, these figures were going to have unique moves and animations separate from their standard figure counterparts. These figures also would have lit up on various places.

The Darth Vader one looks a lot more menacing that the regular Darth Vader figure. I imagine this figure would have lit up on the lava base and throughout the lightsaber.

The premium Elsa figure looks like a huge improvement over the 1.0 Elsa figure. She is noticeably wearing her outfit from Frozen Fever rather than her dress from the film. The cape of her dress would have looked so pretty glowing, but it seems like we will just have to “Let it Go” seeing as plans have been scrapped.

Finally there is the Buzz Lightyear premium figure. Alright, this one is just straight up awesome. It is clear that the blue streak coming from action wing pack would have been the part that lit up. Buzz Lightyear could have benefitted so much from all the improvements of a 3.0 figure. It is a shame that we will never get our hands on this one.

Disney Infinity would have possibly had miniature figures based on NPC characters from the game.

News comes from the latest episode of the Inside Infinity podcast, where Will Kelley and Steven Operach were joined by Disney Infinity artist Thomas Estrada. You can watch the video version of the podcast below, many more fun bits of information were provided.

Though it is unclear what role these miniature figures would have played, we do have a concept of what they would have looked like.

Perhaps these figures would not have made it into the game at all. They were never official by any means, but they were far enough along that they had this awesome concept art.

It is believed that perhaps Disney would have used the figures purely as collectables for those who wanted the toys, but did not necessarily want to play the game. This would have been a similar concept to Disney’s popular Tsum Tsum plushes, or their Funko Pop line of Disney licensed characters.
