SEGA & Kidrobot Are Collaborating On A Sonic 25th Anniversary Collection
Kidrobot’s figures are like a westernized chibi. I’ve never liked their figures personally. They’re the kind you see sold at hot topic and similar novelty shops.
Collection games are cool, but I already have 2 different Sonic collections on Gamecube. Hard to get excited over something I already have.
It’s a collection of toys, you dummy…
The article image of Sonic Mania is misleading.
