sonic may be dead for April Fool’s Day, but that’s not going to stop him from continuing to run in future games and even in reality using the power of imagination and bricks LEGO. Yes, like the many packs in the universe of Super Mario, The Lego Group And SEGA are now collaborating to offer sets Sonic the Hedgehogwhich this time have nothing to do with the range LEGO Ideas like the set released last year. It is through a fun video and a press release that we learn the news, with supporting visuals and details.
We will therefore find sonic, Tails, Amy and the Dr Eggman in reproductions of the sets of the license, starting with Green Hill Zone. The workshop of Tailshis plane Tornadothe island ofAmy where she takes care of the animals and a speed sphere will thus be the subject of the first four sets expected on August 1, 2023.
“At SEGA, we strive to create memorable experiences with our licensing partners that fans will cherish for years to come,” said Ivo Gerscovich, Chief Business & Brand Officer, SEGA of America. “The LEGO Group is the leader in gaming and the perfect partner to bring exciting stories, iconic characters and environments from the Sonic universe to life in the living rooms of fans around the world. Thanks to our creative collaboration with The LEGO Group, Sonic fans of all generations can use their imaginations to play out their favorite Sonic moments, and we can’t wait to see their awesome creations. »
“It’s nothing like the rest!” The sets offer a whole new action-packed play experience,” explains Frédéric Roland Andre, designer of the LEGO Group. “I’m especially proud of the Speed Sphere, because it was quite a challenge to figure out how we were going to get Sonic to accelerate and interact with each course. Sonic is known for his speed and the way he runs and jumps through courses, so for the LEGO sets inspired by him there was no way to create a static set, we just had to get creative and make them too action-packed as possible! »
