Remember the good ol’ days of the 1991 Sonic the Hedgehog game from Sega, when it was just Sonic rolling around at the speed of sound? Well, it looks like someone wants to remind us of those days with this new Sonic dol…action figure.
JAKKS Pacific is responsible for giving us this nostalgic Sonic the Hedgehog collector edition action figure for Sonic’s 30th birthday. They’re selling this through Entertainment Earth for a mere $49.99, and is scheduled to be released sometime in March 2021.
Yeah, I kid. $50 is definitely a bit on the expensive side for a taste of nostalgia. The somewhat vague release date combined with the estimated shipping date being subject to change only makes it more iffy to buy. You might change your mind when you check out this Sonic the Hedgehog action figure in detail though.
Sonic the Hedgehog: Ye Olde Action Figure Details
This Sonic the Hedgehog collector edition action figure measures 6 inches tall, and features 9 points of articulation. You know, so that you can pose the little guy however you want. He also comes with interchangeable eyes, face, and hands so that you can change his look however you want too.
Even better, this Sonic the Hedgehog action figure comes with a display base with a lenticular scene printed on it. Yeah, you know that blurry, eye-watering image just below Sonic here? It probably looks a lot better in person. Because on the computer screen? You can’t even look at it for long without feeling like your eyes are trying to go cross-eyed. I can’t even tell what it is thanks to that blurriness. You’ll have to trust the company for the info that it looks good.
Conclusion
JAKKS Pacific, courtesy of Entertainment Earth, is offering this Sonic the Hedgehog collector edition action figure for $50. It’s definitely on the pricey side for a 6-inch tall figure, and that lenticular scene on the base is making my eyes water. But if you’re a big Sonic fan, this is a pretty nice present to celebrate Sonic’s 30th anniversary with.
