Starlink: Battle for Atlas is a significant step forward for the toys-to-life movement. This petered out after Disney killed Infinity and Activision didn’t make plastic figures for Skylanders in its last go. And that’s fine. The games were OK, but those action figures lacked one key ingredient: action. They were stuck on plastic bases, and you couldn’t pose them.
That’s not a problem with Starlink’s spaceships. You can zoom them around the room without any silly bases, and even more, you can switch out different pilots, weapons, and even wings on the dang things. My kids had a blast just flying around and pretending to engage in space battles and swapping out different configurations.
