Could We See More Disney Infinity Single Figure Play Sets Like Star Wars Rebels?

This past week saw a massive shift in Disney Infinity, with the reveal that the new Marvel Battlegrounds play set would only come with 1 figure (click here for that information).  Which brings up some more questions about the future of Disney Infinity, is this going to become the standard way of packaging play sets in the future?   And does mean a Star Wars Rebels play set is much more likely?

By only using a single character, it frees up the need to package up play sets with two characters, while Disney have tried to team up a male and a female character (Spider-Man and Lone Ranger excluded), moving to packaging one figure with a play set does have some advantages, though its not so good on the pocket.

When the Star Wars Rebel figures were first released, we got Zeb, Ezra, Sabine and Kanan, but there wasn’t a Hera figure, who was a major part of the TV show.  Since then, we have been teased with the idea we could get some more Rebels characters like Hera and many people wondered who she could be paired with for a future play set, the Inquisitor or Chopper, but adding a villain or a droid would be new and difficult for Disney.  Also a new play set would encourage purchases of the existing figures and with characters like Darth Vader and Princess Leia now appearing in the show, this could also help sales of those figures.

With 3 Star Wars play sets released in 2015, holding back on a Star Wars Rebels play set, makes sense, while there is a Rogue One movie out this year, it does mean Disney can spread out the content and not including Hera could make more sense if Disney are going to only package one figure with a play set from now on.

Now this is just a theory and there is no information that a Star Wars Rebels play set is coming to Disney Infinity, but missing her out from the initial launch would make more sense if this idea is correct.
