  1. First4Figures has offered a first look at the final statue in its Sonic Movie-inspired 'Standoff' statue series - and it's none other than Miles 'Tails' Prower! Following the Sonic and Knuckles reveals, the Tails statue completes the Sonic 2 Movie triple threat and even works alongside the other two characters to form a unified mega-statue. As you can see in the video teaser below, this looks to be a high-quality rendition of the the Paramount-designed two-tailed fox, right down to the fuzz and whiskers. 2024-f4f-tails-statue-video.mp4 F4F released the video above on social media, with a note that pre-orders for this little guy open on 28th March 2024 - that's eight days from now! If you're interested, you can sign up to the F4F website here and get a $10 discount on your pre-order. Who's keen to get one? Let us know in the comments section below!

  3. Ho ho ho! Christmas is round the corner, isn't that exciting!? And what better way to get hype for the festive season than to spend each day painstakingly opening doors of a cardboard box and munching on delicious chocolate. Nah, who can be doing with that? Tasty treats, who needs 'em? Well, if you're looking for something a little more interesting to do, Numskull is hoping they have you covered with this official Sonic-themed build-a-figure Countdown Calendar. Now, this isn't exactly a new concept - Numskull launched one of these last year featuring Sonic the Hedgehog having fun on a snowboard - but the concept must have been really quite successful because the merch company is doing it again in 2023 with a statue focused on Sonic's trusty sidekick, Tails, instead. The character might be different, but the idea behind it is very much the same - inside the rather hefty 'calendar' box are 24 individual little boxes, each containing a small piece of a figure puzzle that you put together over the course of the holidays. Each piece is organised to that everything you unwrap connects to the existing work-in-progress statue, so you're not just sitting around for a whole day with a rogue piece with nothing to stick it to. That's all well and good, but it also means that, due to the logistics of the thing, you are going to have periods where you're unboxing nothing but boring-looking (out of context - it all looks rather good when put together) pillars or parts of a star-post. Things start to get exciting towards the end of the run, where you have bigger pieces to connect and it all feels a little more worthwhile. Having said that, when you do finish putting it all together you end up with a cool-looking figure that looks like this: The build quality of the finished article, in general, is pretty good! It was a little fiddle to put together at first, but thankfully there are helpful instructions on the back of each box to let you know exactly where each piece is supposed to go (which is useful because some of the objects double up and you want to make sure you're putting the right gem on top of the right pillar, for example). I did also have a little trouble with one particular part of the statue - the star post didn't seem to want to connect fully, and I'm not entirely sure if there's a means to 'click' or 'lock' it into place, or if it's meant to be sort of 'spongy' when connected to the post base. I've managed to wobble the star post pole off its base a couple times because of this, but I figure as long as I'm careful with it (what else am I going to do with a statue besides have it sit idly on a shelf?) it shouldn't be too much of an issue from hereon out. I might have just had a wonky sample in that case, but it's something to be aware of. Anyway, here's a little montage video of me setting it all up - you're obviously supposed to open one box a day, but for the purposes of this review I cheated, didn't I? Tails Countdown Character Building Montage.mp4 At the end of it all, it was a pretty painless experience, beyond the trouble with the star post. And I get to keep a cool mini-statue that really does look rather cool - I love the action pose of Tails here, and the base is quite inspired (even if it is Ice Cap again from last year - although I do like to pretend that it could be Robotnik Winter instead sometimes). I won't lie though, the asking price of £79.99 may be a little steep for those looking for an advent calendar, so you have to know exactly what you're getting here before putting your money down. Especially seeings as a similar Sonic character model was released last year at a much cheaper price point. BUT, considering that you get a pretty decent figure out of it - that you can stand on your shelf forever and ever - AND considering the price of some of the other hi-spec statues and figures out there, relatively speaking, I wouldn't say this is super outrageous. It all depends on whether your love for Miles Prower burns so brightly that you're willing to lovingly and masochistically build each part of him, bit by bit... day by day... I hope Tails isn't self-aware on the days he has to sit there without a head! If you're the kind of Tails fan that would get a kick out of a novel new way to obtain an otherwise-quite-rare statue of him, then you can't go far wrong than the Official Tails Countdown Calendar. You can purchase the Official Tails Countdown Calendar from SEGA Shop UK or Europe here [affiliate link]. View full story

  5. Time to dig deep into your pockets, it's Sonic Statue time once again! Model specialists First4Figures have just opened pre-orders for its brand new Sonic movie-inspired piece, which features the blue blur racing along the streets of Green Hills smashing robot drones along the way. This new "Sonic Standoff" statue comes in two different varieties - the Standard Edition offers the resin-painted figure of Sonic, alongside an authentication card and limited edition numbering, while the Exclusive Edition adds static and animated LED light-up functions such as blue streaks of electricity and light-up eyes on Sonic and the drone. Check out the reveal video below: f4f-sonicmovie-statue-preorder.mp4 Both versions of the statue come in at the same dimensions - 26.5cm H / 25.2cm W / 21.5cm D - with the Exclusive Edition being a touch heavier than the Standard at 2.9kg versus 2.8kg. Pre-orders are open now on F4F's website, and there are Early Bird prices currently active for the next month that offers some $25-30 off the base price (Standard is currently $383.99 on this discount, while the Exclusive is currently $413.99). F4F has also teased that this "Sonic Standoff" statue is just one of three new models coming out, with each figure designed to work together to build a complete scene. The company has not yet revealed what the other two figures are, but its clearly done a fantastic job of making it really difficult for us to guess who it is. In the meantime, pre-order the Sonic Standoff here: PRE-ORDER STANDARD EDITION @ SEGA SHOP - £299.99 PRE-ORDER EXCLUSIVE EDITION @ SEGA SHOP - £329.99 It's clearly Ray the Flying Squirrel and Mighty the Armadillo, guys. Come on! Will you be partaking in this Sonic statue? Let us know in the comments section below!

  7. First 4 Figures have today announced the launch of their Sonic the Hedgehog 30th Anniversary statue. The Statue, modelled on the 30th Anniversary logo depicting modern Sonic leaping through a ring was teased via social media, with the official launch day being pinned as April the 5th, 2022. The statue will be revealed in full via stream (including YouTube) at 16:45 BST. The only detail currently confirmed by First 4 Figures is that there will be both a standard and exclusive version of the statue available. Following the launch stream, the statue will become available for pre-order, however the price of the premium item is yet to be confirmed. In the meantime, fans can also enter a free competition for a chance to win a statue of their own. More information as it comes!
  8. One of the highlight's of today's Sonic Central was merchandise partnerships currently available and through this fall. Following last year's Eggman Robot set, this year's big Jakks Pacific set is Eggman's hovercraft with accessories to recreate multiple boss fights. Razer will be releasing a Sonic themed Xbox series controller with matching charging stand. EXG Pro, makers of weird statues that hold your phone, will add modern Sonic to their collection. A collection that currently includes Classic Sonic, Classic Tails, Classic Amy Rose, Classic Super Sonic, and two other variants of Classic Sonic. First4Figures will be releasing a duo of character statues, featuring modern Amy and Tails. No details have been stated regarding the scale or price of these statues. On the much, MUCH more affordable side of merch, Pez has already released a trio of classic Sonic, Tails, and Knuckles dispensers. At time of writing, Knuckles is already sold out on their online store. Clothing brand Hype released a line of Sonic clothing that is... basically already sold out. You can look at it if you want but the size scale on this line aims at 16 and younger. Moor Art Gallery will be adding several more poster designs to their... you guessed it, largely sold out collection. They're nice (and pricey) posters, but be prepared to grab them as soon as they're in stock. Neamedia Icons, a resin figure group, currently has available resin 5" classic Sonic figures on their official store, and (checks notes) they are apparently in stock at time of writing! If you want a monochromatic Sonic for some reason, seems like now's your time! Pre-orders for Japanese figure maker Bellfine's 12" soft vinyl Sonic figure are available among many online toy stores. Despite the "Available Now," Bellfine's website lists the release date as November, and international sellers don't expect to get stock until early next year. ...No, not again. I can't handle this again. At any rate, I think we can all agree, that Eggman hovercraft toy looks really cool, and may have been the highlight of the entire Sonic Central. Look forward to it and maybe some of these other licensed Sonic collectables throughout 2022 and beyond. But not too beyond. The patterns here indicate that things seem to be selling out rather quickly.
  9. It's that time of year again! Pop culture statue manufacturer First4Figures has teased a brand new Sonic the Hedgehog product due for release in 2023. But, unlike previous 'diorama' and standard character releases, this latest statue goes a little retro in offering a PVC rendition of the classic Sonic Adventure cover art pose. Unfortunately, all we have to go on is the above cheeky tweet, in terms of hard details. You can see a close up of Sonic's Dreamcast-era toothy grin, as well as some of the textures that you might expect to find on the final product. The quality of the image itself leaves a little to be desired, but we imagine that's intentional so as to reveal a more high-quality photo when the full thing is officially unveiled. Are you in the market for a high-end Sonic the Hedgehog Dreamcast statue? Let us know in the comments below. You can follow the link in the tweet to register your interest with F4F too.
  10. If you've got a few hundred dollars burning a hole in your pocket, high-end statue designer First 4 Figures has opened pre-orders for their latest Sonic entry, this time featuring Amy Rose! The 14" (35cm) tall resin statue comes in three flavors, all three featuring Amy with her trademark hammer posing in a grassy base. The standard model ($499 USD standard, $459 with pre-order discount) includes just Amy, while the "Exclusive Edition" ($499 / $459) includes a swappable arm showing her holding an Amy Chao. The "Definitive Edition" ($549 / $499) adds an extra layer to the base with several Chao. Though pre-orders are open now, the statue itself isn't expected to ship until Q4 2023.
  11. First4Figures’ latest Sonic PVC statue, based on Sonic’s iconic Adventure 1 box art pose, is finally priced and up for pre-order. The statue comes in three variants including basic, collectible, and definitive, though only the latter two are currently available on F4F’s website. This is notable, since the website won’t charge you the full price immediately, and also allows for installation payments. F4F’s website gives the statues a broad Q4 release date, while Entertainment Earth says they will be released in November, and SEGA Shop Europe gives them an October date. Details on the statues, including photos, pricing, and pre-order links are below: Basic Edition The cheapest statue, it lacks any sort of the bells and whistles of the other editions, including the circular base. It’s dimensions are H8.3" (21cm) x W6.3" (16cm) x D5.6" (14.2cm). Not available on F4F’s website. Can be bought at Entertainment Earth for $89.99 here. Europeans can obtain a statue from SEGA Europe’s shop for £79.99 here. Collector's Edition This statue includes a circular base illuminated by an LED. The lighting can either be static or animated. It’s dimensions are H9.1" (23cm) x W6.5" (16.5cm) x D6.9" (17.5cm), and it’s priced at $119.99/£99.99. You can get it from F4F’s website here. You can get it from SEGA Shop Europe here. Definitive Edition This edition adds a resin ring around Sonic, illuminated by LEDs. The LEDs can either be static or animated. The speed of the animation can be adjusted with a dial on the back. Only a limited number of these statues will be produced, and each statue will receive its own number and authentication card. Its dimensions are H10.8" (27.5cm) x W10.6" (27cm) x D7" (18cm). The statue currently has an early bird price of $279.99 on F4F, which will last until June 26. After that, the statue will be priced at $299.99. It’s £259.99 at SEGA Shop Europe. You can pre-order it from F4F’s shop here, or from SEGA Europe here. Finally, if you want to see these statues in motion, you can check out the Youtube video below:
  12. First4Figures has been on a roll with their line of Sonic statues lately, and this latest one appears to be no exception. After an initial tease last year and a confirmation of pre-order dates last week, the company has finally revealed its upcoming Sonic Adventure PVC statue. As you can see, the statue looks incredibly faithful to the iconic Dreamcast Sonic cover pose, and comes complete with the Sonic Adventure logo and base. F4F posted a brief video teasing the product further on social media, alongside a reminder of the May 25 pre-order date. We won’t know the statue’s price until pre-orders open, but it will surely be in the hundreds of dollars/pounds/euros and will almost certainly come in a multitude of variations. You can register your interest here. Check out the teaser video below.
  13. Purveyors of high-end Sonic the Hedgehog merchandise First 4 Figures are due to begin taking pre-orders for a Sonic Adventure-themed statue at the end of this month. Last year, First 4 Figures teased a statue based on the infamous Sonic Adventure “spaghetti” pose. It appears that the product will be one or two variants of the statue as two different height and material options are available. Interest can be registered via the following link. Will you be preordering? Let us know in the comments!

  15. Sonic Team has just opened up their 'Sonic Factory' store online, and revealed the first exclusive set of products to be sold from the outlet; a statue, a silver ring and a crystal cube with a wireframe model of Sonic etched inside. These classy items aren't your usual Sonic action figures. Read on for more details and pictures! Sonic Silver Ring The first item on the production line is the Sonic Silver Ring. It’s a rather spiky little pieces of jewellery that fits on your index finger, designed in the shape of Sonic’s head. The ring itself had to be specially modelled, simply because of Sonic’s spines and his nose. It comes with a 10th Anniversary-branded box and inlay, and can be purchased in three sizes: ‘S 14’ (about 16mm), ‘M 17’ (about 18mm) and ‘L 21’ (about 19mm). Only 500 Sonic Silver Rings will be made. It will be available to buy on November 8, 2001 for 15,000 Yen (around £86 / $125). Pre-order here. Sonic Statue This cool looking number is a limited edition statue, the first time that such a piece of merchandise has been created for Sonic the Hedgehog. Created from 'poly-stone, hard material that is similar to pottery', this is quite a weighty item at 1410g (1000g for the 10th Anniversary-branded base, 410g for the figure itself) and with a height of 210mm. The statue will come in the box shown above, which will have the dimensions of H 30cm x W 20cm x D 20cm. 500 pieces are being produced and sold, and will release on November 15, 2001 for 12,000 Yen (around £68 / $100). Pre-order here. Sonic Crystal Cube Possibly the most striking item of merchandise of the lot is this crystal cube, with a Sonic wireframe model etched within it. Designed and etched using the latest computer technology, this is being described on the Sonic Team website as a new version of the old pirate ship in the bottle (in the 'how did they get that in there' sense, I imagine). It's not very big at all, sizing up at H 80mm x W 50mm x D 50mm, but it's certainly one of the most impressive-looking pieces of merchandise I've ever seen for a Sonic product. Like the other two items, this will be limited to 500 pieces, and will be sold on February 14, 2002 for 8,000 Yen (around £46 / $67). Pre-order here. You can learn more about each item on the official Sonic Factory website here.

  18. Model maker First4Figures has revealed that it will be producing a brand new Tails statue from the Sonic the Hedgehog series. The figure will be made of resin, feature a Modern Tails design with a Miles Electric-themed base, and will go live for pre-orders on March 14. Unveiled via teaser videos and social images on the company's Twitter channel, F4F is also announcing a special promotion on the upcoming product. Any customer who has already ordered a Sonic product directly from the company will be eligible for a $35 voucher off the price of the Tails statue (although there is currently no price on this new model... we're bracing our wallets...). Pre-orders will go live for a month, starting March 14 and ending April 14. You can head to their website for more details.
  19. Here it is. It is apparently based on Sonic Adventure 2, given Sonic's shoes. It looks very cool, if you ask me. Pretty neat, huh? Reservations are said to begin this summer.
  20. Japanese anime figure company S-FIRE has revealed an updated prototype of its upcoming Sonic Adventure 2-inspired Sonic and Shadow statue. First announced at the Wonder Festival Japan expo in 2022, the model manufacturer has showcased the latest version of the product at the same convention over the weekend. Pre-orders for the statue will start in Summer 2023. As you can see from the high-res images S-FIRE posted today, the "Super Situation Figure: Sonic & Shadow" statue is looking much more vibrant and intense since we last saw it a year ago. Sonic franchise creative director, Kazuyuki Hoshino, revealed that some alterations were even made since the figure's last appearance, based on fan feedback: Shadow's mouth has been moved to the front side The rings now have a shiny effect on them Sonic's SOAP shoes have been completely redesigned, referring more closely to the shoes that feature in the Sonic Frontiers DLC last year SEGA Japan's official Sonic Twitter channel was present at the Wonder Festival Japan 2023 and shared some photos of the statue on display. You can check them out below, or by clicking the link to their Twitter post.
  21. First 4 Figures announced on Twitter today that they are looking into doing a series of statues featuring Chao. While there are no actual announcements, they provided some quick-and-dirty concept art for a Dark Garden statue featuring three dark Chao including a Shadow Chao. Chao were most recently featured in First 4 Figures’ Amy Rose Definitive Edition statue, but have not been prominently featured in their own statue. If you are interested in the potential line of high end (and likely very expensive) Chao statues, you can let First 4 Figures know via this form. Thanks to Hyper Metal Sonic for the news tip!

  23. If you've got a few hundred dollars burning a hole in your pocket, high-end statue designer First 4 Figures has opened pre-orders for their latest Sonic entry, this time featuring Amy Rose! The 14" (35cm) tall resin statue comes in three flavors, all three featuring Amy with her trademark hammer posing in a grassy base. The standard model ($499 USD standard, $459 with pre-order discount) includes just Amy, while the "Exclusive Edition" ($499 / $459) includes a swappable arm showing her holding an Amy Chao. The "Definitive Edition" ($549 / $499) adds an extra layer to the base with several Chao. Though pre-orders are open now, the statue itself isn't expected to ship until Q4 2023. View full story
  24. It's that time of year again! Pop culture statue manufacturer First4Figures has teased a brand new Sonic the Hedgehog product due for release in 2023. But, unlike previous 'diorama' and standard character releases, this latest statue goes a little retro in offering a PVC rendition of the classic Sonic Adventure cover art pose. Unfortunately, all we have to go on is the above cheeky tweet, in terms of hard details. You can see a close up of Sonic's Dreamcast-era toothy grin, as well as some of the textures that you might expect to find on the final product. The quality of the image itself leaves a little to be desired, but we imagine that's intentional so as to reveal a more high-quality photo when the full thing is officially unveiled. Are you in the market for a high-end Sonic the Hedgehog Dreamcast statue? Let us know in the comments below. You can follow the link in the tweet to register your interest with F4F too.

  25. One of the highlight's of today's Sonic Central was merchandise partnerships currently available and through this fall. Following last year's Eggman Robot set, this year's big Jakks Pacific set is Eggman's hovercraft with accessories to recreate multiple boss fights. Razer will be releasing a Sonic themed Xbox series controller with matching charging stand. EXG Pro, makers of weird statues that hold your phone, will add modern Sonic to their collection. A collection that currently includes Classic Sonic, Classic Tails, Classic Amy Rose, Classic Super Sonic, and two other variants of Classic Sonic. First4Figures will be releasing a duo of character statues, featuring modern Amy and Tails. No details have been stated regarding the scale or price of these statues. On the much, MUCH more affordable side of merch, Pez has already released a trio of classic Sonic, Tails, and Knuckles dispensers. At time of writing, Knuckles is already sold out on their online store. Clothing brand Hype released a line of Sonic clothing that is... basically already sold out. You can look at it if you want but the size scale on this line aims at 16 and younger. Moor Art Gallery will be adding several more poster designs to their... you guessed it, largely sold out collection. They're nice (and pricey) posters, but be prepared to grab them as soon as they're in stock. Neamedia Icons, a resin figure group, currently has available resin 5" classic Sonic figures on their official store, and (checks notes) they are apparently in stock at time of writing! If you want a monochromatic Sonic for some reason, seems like now's your time! Pre-orders for Japanese figure maker Bellfine's 12" soft vinyl Sonic figure are available among many online toy stores. Despite the "Available Now," Bellfine's website lists the release date as November, and international sellers don't expect to get stock until early next year. ...No, not again. I can't handle this again. At any rate, I think we can all agree, that Eggman hovercraft toy looks really cool, and may have been the highlight of the entire Sonic Central. Look forward to it and maybe some of these other licensed Sonic collectables throughout 2022 and beyond. But not too beyond. The patterns here indicate that things seem to be selling out rather quickly. View full story
