And you gotta admit, if you like or hate current Sonic, their figurines are still pretty nifty.
First 4 Figures is a "collectible toys" company. They already made a couple of Sonic figurines and worked with other gaming franchises such as Zelda, Metroid, Assassin's Creed, Gears of Wars, etc..
Their work is pretty professional and I'd say rivals if not beats the competition, Neca, McFarlane Toys and others!
Yes, those are actually on my wall, I like to keep some trophies around.
Their new figurines won't be giant 15 inches collectors nor more of the series started with Sonic, Tails and Knuckles above this text.
It will be instead a whole box of various characters "all in one".
Still using the retro 16-bit Sonic designs!
Wow!
I gotta say, they look pretty lovely^__^
Retro Sonic still has his charm!
The pack will contain those 6 characters from Sonic The Hedgehog; Sonic himself, Knux, Tails, Metal Sonic, Amy and Suuuupaaaaa Sonikku!
These six 2 inches Sonic characters will be available in this neat pack in September 2010 for around ~30 dollars.
And now, here's some dramatic pictures:
And more pictures:
I gotta say, they all look great...
Let's criticise them a bit, shall we?
Well, shouldn't Super Sonic have greenish, if not red-ysh eyes? I clearly remember S.Sonic sprite having green eyes?! :P
They all look sorta Chibi/Super-Deformed too, no?
Well, at least the colors are flashy and they look pretty cool... Tails does look a bit weird/out of model...
Also, no EGGMAN love? :(
Anyway, I'd get it for Metal Sonic alone!
Look at that!
Eyz smart advice of the day:
Don't rush to buy those, even if you want to grab a copy of this pack collection! First 4 Figures are easily available and mass produced! I pre-ordered the original 3 Sonic figurines at full price..and could easily find them as soon as they were released on most gaming/electronic/media stores and cheaper too!!!
But those will come boxed, all 6 of them :P
ReplyDeleteYou're probably talking about that articulated Metal Sonic figurine.
