Fun facts (Bonus at end)

Hey everyone! I hatched an idea! I'm going to give you 5 cool facts about Sonic Toys. Plus a bonus.
1. Toy Island Big the Cat is the first action figure to be labeled as a Sonic X toy.
Big surprise huh? Why did they make him first? Oh well.










2. This is a rumor. Not true or true. Very first Sonic Toy! Cool right!




3. The 5" Werehog is the first Sonic Toy made by Jazwers. Its a good start for them. WARNING PERSONAL STORY ALERT: On Black Friday, I got in the huge line at Toys R Us. I got in there and I got one. In the car I opened him and tried to put him in a cool pose. His legs broke off. And I was all like D:<. So I super glued them back on. That's why I don't use him much in stop motion on my youtube (may196611).





4. Getting happy meals pays off in the long run. This is the very first Eggman toy. He's a wind up toy. I don't know if he's the first Sonic wind up but yeah. I got this dude at a flea market. I got cool Sonic stuff at the flea market. Comment if you want to see the stuff.



5. Chris. Seriously. If you make a Sonic X exclusive character make it Cosmo or Bokkun. Bokkun is better than this guy. But this is the first cartoon exclusive toy ever made. And he is the least articulated action figure with only 3 points, head and arms.












The villain 2 pack. Its a great addition to any collection! Metal Sonic has already been released once. So he already has a review. But just look at the box. EGGMANS BASE! It comes with that tube Metal Sonic is trapped in. In my opinion this is the best box yet for any Sonic toy. Oh and one more thing, Eggman's mustache is brown in this box! I wonder what the Super Hedgehog's background will look like?

First 4 Figures Update!

I forgot to cover them in my very first post so here is line 2. Lets do Metal Sonic first. Metal Sonic. Metal Sonic looks good for his classic style. His sculpt is decent. His legs are a little chubby. The got all the color right to. Remember that these guys joints don't move so don't force their parts.










Amy looks EXCELLENT for her classic look. I think this is the first classic Amy figure.They got her sculpt right. Her tutu is in proportion to here body. She has a nice smile added. The only thing I have to complain about is... well nothing. I think this is the best figure in the line!







Super Sonic. Better than the Super Poser Version and worse than the 3inch action figure coming out. His sculpt is on track but... Look at his eyes! He looks like he's confused of something. They could have gave him a better pose more "Super Sonic" like. And remember this is classic Super Sonic so his eyes should be green. Other than the eyes they have his color right. The bottom line is buy this line! Clear off a shelf to display these guys at. There worth it by the looks of the pictures.

Hey everyone!

Hey. Just started a blog. Its about Sonic Toys that will be coming soon. Now... UPDATE TIME!Check out Espio! Thats right the first Espio action figure! From this picture he looks great in sculpt wise. They gave him the cuffs and shoes exactly as they where is Sonic Heroes and Shadow the Hedgehog. He has everything in proportion to his body, not to fat not to skinny, just right. The only thing I can complain about is his spikes on his back are pink. They are supposed to be black. Oh well. WAY TO GO JAWZERS FOR MY 3RD FAVORITE CHARACTER!
 Now on to Vector. I feel bad for Vector. He cant be in video games anymore because he just got pulled out! Look at this! Great sculpt! Awesome job on the headphones, necklace, gloves, and shoes! They even gave him black shoulders! He is confirmed to be a 4inch in the 3inch line. So they are paying attention to proportion! There is nothing wrong except the spikes on his back are not visible. But they are probably behind him we just cant see them. THEY CANT MESS THIS ONE UP!
So Eggman and Big. This picture was taken on Jawzers desk. Lets start with Big. They made big... well big. In his sculpt he has his sandals his trust belt and his HUGE ears. They got the gloves right to. Big is also said to come with (no big surprise) FROGGY! Now on to Eggman. If you missed getting toy island Eggman (I didn't) you are about to get a chance. OK the sculpt on Eggman is GREAT. Shoes are on course, is shirt is on the right track, and they didnt do anything wrong with the head. He does not look good in proportion compared to Big. The only thing I have to say is Eggmans mustache color.
                                                          
Your favorite hot wheels, give it up for the MINI RACERS. Sonic is the only old one in the pack. The rest are new. Beat is in there but he's not Sonic so were not touching him. The first Tails toy made with his plane (I sense creative stop motion). And the second Eggman in a vehicle (first was McDonald's Eggman).




Nobody talks about plush allot. But plush are toys so I'm touching them. Black Knight Sonic. They came out with a plush like this so all I have to review is the sword and glove. The sword is decently made. Along with the glove. Nuff said.









If you haven't heard of Sonic Colors its a game coming out about Sonic traveling
to other planets getting power from little creatures called whisp. This is one of them. The whisp looks like a cool collectible. They said they are trying to make a toy for each game coming out and this is for Sonic Colors. The whisp looks like the blue whisp from the game. When the game and toy comes out we get to learn more about this alien






This is one I looked at VERY carefully. In the top box Super Sonic, Shadow, and even Silver are in it. The bottom box I found Eggmans arm and I zoom into the image in paint and I found the corner of Metal Sonic's head. But the mystery remains. Who is in the box with Eggman and Metal Sonic



Well thanks for reading we will find more soon! Pictures found on Sonic Gear.
