Toy Box Takeover, originally known as "Villain Takeover", is a Toy Box Expansion Game in Disney Infinity 3.0. It is an exploration type game, similar to Escape from the Kyln and Brave Forest Siege. Any playable character except those from Cars and Finding Nemo can play the game.[1] It is sold separately[2] from the Disney Infinity 3.0 Starter pack, and is priced around $19.99 U.S.[3] Most major retailers offered this for free when you pre-ordered the Disney Infinity 3.0 Starter Pack. The game's release date was October 13, 2015.[4]
Premise[]
The storyline of this game is that Syndrome from The Incredibles has stolen Magic Wands from Mickey Mouse and Merlin, and has used them to create several zones - all based on Disney, Pixar, Marvel, and Star Wars - and has added villains to them.[5] The player must make their way through each area, continually moving in order to avoid the "Hero Destroyer": a destructive force that continually follows the player, obliterating everything in its path, enemies included. To help, the player has their Sidekick, as well as Merlin to assist them by telling them important information.
It has been estimated to take around three hours to complete.[6]
Zones[]
There are a number of different zones for the player to explore, each of which include a number of Loot Chests. A Loot Chest may award a food item or a random piece of Sidekick Gear, including "epic" quality[7] Sidekick Weapons such as Elsa's Ice Crystal.

Hero Destroyer[]
"A legion of Sidekicks are waiting to be unlocked from the Hero Destroyer! Keep playing to unlock 'em all!"
This zone is randomly generated each time, and consists of three Toy Box levels. The first is a random set of enemies. The second usually involves Syndrome forcing you to fight with a random Pack or Tool while riding a random Mount or driving a random Vehicle. The third is a random boss either being: Barbossa, Boba Fett, Darth Maul, Darth Vader, Davy Jones, Green Goblin, Loki, Ronan, or Venom. Each time you complete the zone you unlock the next Sidekick in the list.
The full list of all 25 Sidekicks from the Hero Destroyer in the order they are unlocked: Chip, Mrs. Incredible, Barbossa, Dale, TRON, Baloo, Mulan, Mr. Incredible, Flynt, Goofy, Jack Skellington, King Louie, Lewis, Oswald, Pinocchio, Tigger, Yeti, Peg Leg Pete, Stitch, CLU, Peter Pan, Launchpad McQuack, Baymax, Buzz Lightyear, Mickey Mouse
Escape from the Kyln[]
Toy Box Takeover is somewhat different from Escape from the Kyln in several ways.
- Rather than simply re-using enemies from other areas of Disney Infinity, new enemies have been created specifically for the Toy Box game.
- Enemies take less time and effort to defeat in this game, and the player takes less damage from them. As a result, there are more enemies per level.
- Sidekicks work differently in this game than they did in Disney Infinity 2.0. To level them up now requires more than just a change of gear: it takes work, and you have to feed them items grown from farming in order to raise their Stats. Additionally, a Sidekick's level is not limited to Toy Box Takeover, but applies elsewhere in Disney Infinity 3.0 as well.[17]
- The designers of this game purposely created it so that it was not something that could be easily replicated in Toy Box; the game is full of game-exclusive content. [18] For example, in The Caribbean zone, the player and Sidekick can interact with water and boats, including The Flying Dutchman, to reach their goal.[6]
Trivia[]
- According to GameInformer magazine, the game was expected to unlock fifteen new Sidekicks. Once released, over 40 sidekicks were revealed to be unlocked from this game.
- The Old West is the only level that does not have a boss battle.
- Imperial Base is the only level that does not take the player to the Hero Destroyer after completing the level.
