Hasbro have announced the latest series getting a crossover with the Transformers- and it’s none other than Sonic the Hedgehog, with a two-pack of new Autobots set to land in Summer 2025.
Transformers Collaborative: Sonic the Hedgehog x Transformers consists of an action-figure two-pack, featuring Autobot Blue Booster (based on Sonic’s car from Team Sonic Racing) and Autobot Wingtail (based on the Tornado). The robot modes are unsurprisingly robotic takes on Sonic and Tails themselves. Their official summary from Hasbro is as follows:
The worlds of TRANSFORMERS robots and Sonic the Hedgehog collide with the Sonic the Hedgehog x TRANSFORMERS mash-up pack! Inspired by Sonic the Hedgehog characters, these 5-inch action figures convert from robot to alt mode and feature accurate deco and details. The Blue Booster figure converts between robot and car mode in 27 steps. The Wingtail figure converts between robot and biplane mode in 32 steps. Comes with accessories including ring shield and jewel accessories for the Blue Booster figure, and a detachable engine thruster that becomes a blaster for the Wingtail figure.
The two-pack will go up for pre-order on December 10th. In America, this set will be exclusive to Target, with limited stock for Premium members of Hasbro’s Pulse store. In the UK it’s unlikely to be exclusive to any particular store, based on past trends. The pack will retail for $49.99, and launch in Summer 2025.
