Towards the end of the Disney Interactive panel at D23 Expo 2015, the Disney Infinity team had several surprises. While we knew there was something coming for Star Wars: The Force Awakens, exactly what was a mystery until today.

John Boyega, who plays Finn in the film, and Daisy Ridley, who plays Rey, both took the stage with a reveal in hand (literally). Showing off their figures for the game, they confirmed their characters would make it in for the Force Awakens play set, and thus be playable throughout the Star Wars sets and toy box in Disney Infinity 3.0.
Boyega said, “This is crazy, I have an actual action figure! I’m so honored. My toy box on 2.0 isn’t as good as some, I’m still working on it.” “Finn’s rifle is “the most powerful weapon in the game,” and Boyega shrugged. Ridley said, “I don’t need the most powerful weapon in the game, because I am a bad ass!”
They were given the figures on stage, and Boyega and Ridley said they’d rather give them to fans in the crowd, signing the figures first.
“It’s so cool to have the actors here to help with the reveal,” John Vignocchi, VP Production Disney Infinity told ComicBook.com. “I mean, getting to work on Star Wars and getting to reveal at D23 is cool enough, but this makes it extra special.”
