South Island - The SegaSonic & Sonic Team Forum! Welcome to South Island! Pull up a chair, grab a daquiri (non-alcoholic of course) and chill next to the old airplane for a while. ^_^ This is the spot for the gamers to come in and chat on the ORIGINAL Sonic. It's not just SegaSonic on discussion here, but Sonic's anime incarnations(Sonic X, the Movie/OVA, etc.) and general Sonic Team - Yuji Naka, Naoto Oshima, Phantasy Star Online, NiGHTS Into Dreams, and Samba! By the way - watch for falling Chu Chu's! ^^ |

Metal Sonic action figure.
That--- that--- Damn it, my lust for Sonic collectables has been ignited oncemore. $16 is a small price for something that cool to stand next to my Yuki, Ryoko, Batman, Belldandy and Fierce Diety models. |

wow craig you have that many... all i got is miniture sonic and tails dolls i won at the arcades, and a final fantasy 7 cloud action figure, the only prized
item i have <crying in shame>
hey sonic is a kids game, why havent they made a hand painting sonic stationary collection. i have a warhammer one and it's very fun, there's no doubt painting sonic and the other characters ourselves would be even more enjoyable. we can change the colors or keep it close to the original. if i could change their colors, tails would be brown and cream would be purple..... hmm... silver would be gold sonic will go light blue and amy dark pink.

The knobby joints ruins each of the figures with sole exception of Metal Sonic.

More action figures. This time is from Sonic & Sega All-Stars Racing. Please let there be a Ryo
Hazuki action figure.

umm shadonic, you really can't see the action figure, all i see is a drawing. i'm sure the plastic model would look very differnt (alhtough i hope it
has the characters inside like the illustration does)
i'm interested in seeing only Amy and Sonic's race cars, the rest arent too original. |

They're probably just advertizing that in Feb 2010 these will exist, but as they are not built yet they don't have detailed shots.
I, too, am holding out hope for a Ryo Hazuki. If he is in a forklift truck it will win my world. If it is capsule sized, it will make me even happier. ---man I am so glad he is in this game. |

can anyone list the naems of all the other characters in sonic and sega all star racing? so at least we can guess what are the rest of the action figures.

Confirmed characters:
Sonic the Hedgehog Miles "Tails" Prower Knuckles the Echidna Doctor Eggman Amy Rose Shadow the Hedgehog Big the Cat AiAi (From Monkey Ball) Amigo (Samba di Amigo) Ryo Hazuki (Shenmue) Beat (Jet Set Radio) Alex Kidd Billy Hatcher (from Billy Hatcher and the Giant Egg) Zobio and Zobiko (House of The Dead) --- Yes, a zombie couple. Those are the confirmed characters. People theorize that Ulala from Space Channel 5 will be there (and her action figure will sell for the sheer virtue it exists), aswell as rumors of Gilius Thunderhead from Golden Axe, Akira from Virtual Fighter and Vyse from Skies of Arcadia. Those last ones are purely rumor, however. Oh and Segata Sanshiro, also... maybe. (Would buy 10 Segata statues if given the opportunity. Just saying.) |

Akira? what's he gonna ride on? the most sensible choice from the virtual fighters is Jackie since he's the only one with a race car.... although
i'd rather have a sarah action figure.
anyway they really picked out some bad choices but mostly it's good. <Oh and Segata Sanshiro, also... maybe. (Would buy 10 Segata statues if given the opportunity. Just saying.) > he looks awsome, i always felt like samurai jack was inspired by segata...... although i don't know if he has a game or who he is, other than he makes dreamcast adds. what they could've done really is bring panzer dragoon one, i just love that dragon it was a sega satrun icon. and since tails is on a plane why not get a dragon rider. |

He was in Japan's ad campaign for the Saturn. He did have a Japan-exclusive game.

I doubt we'll be seeing action figures made of any of the characters not in the final line-up of the launch title, so it may very well be limited to the
ones we already have confirmed.
Though, as some internet fools have pointed out, the lack of NiGHTS is highly conspicuous. |

So, thanks to a Secret Santa and a trip to Toys'R'Us I now possess the 10" T'R'U exclusive Metal Sonic figure.
HOT DAMN. A large portion of me wants to buy more of these because they will be worth craptons in a short while, undoubtably. The website is sold out and the manufacturer is charging $50 (TRU is $17), the thing looks PERFECT, upon close inspection the articulation points are just what the articulation points would be for the actual robot, it has a neat little shimmer effect to the plastic and it's painted to perfection. The only weakness it has is the engine fan's yellow paint is ontop of the same shining plastic and looks dull compared to the vibrant dynamic color shift of the original design. Also the thing is just huge, poses well and is just... well, it's a plastic version of Metal. I have already named mine Metallix and shall open him on Christmas day... and then zoom him around the room while humming Cosmic Eternity. I wish I had this action figure in 1993. |

congratulations,
so it's big and better than the pictures? i'm dying of envy. but as a fellow fan of metal sonic I'm glad you got it, i know how awsome it is.."keep it safe keep it hidden"
<It's SatURN - like the planet. Not SatRUN. don't let me pull your tails! (always wanted to do that )

Okay, to anyone who was thinking about buying the Metal Sonic action figure, I noticed this blog post made yesterday.
Please notice the level of detail below the shoe and the intracacies inside the engine fan. Once again, I remind this thing is $17 and freaking huge. This thing should be a mandatory purchase for any Sonic fan. Or at least for the 70% of us who nigh on wet ourselves when the first images of Sonic Heroes showed Metal Sonic's LED light eyes. The annoying fanboy portion of my soul is compelled to say that Metal Sonic's soles are smooth and red, rather than intricate and yellow/gold. But screw that idiot fandumb part of my soul. The rational side doesn't care. /Dang it, now I want a Metal Overlord action figure >=[
