SEGA have partnered with toy manufacturer Console Heroes to launch a line of toy Mega Drive cartridges that open up to reveal a diorama and figures based on a selection of Mega Drive games. There are currently 5 sets available to pre-order from Entertainment Earth and the entire toyline appears to be North American exclusive at the time of writing.
The 5 sets are themed around Sonic the Hedgehog 2, Sonic the Hedgehog 3, Super Street Fighter II, Altered Beast and a Supervillain Boss Bundle Playset that comes housed in a opening Mega Drive console playset; complete with cartridge storage tray for the cartridge playsets. The cartridge playsets are priced at $17.99 each, while the boss bundle is priced at $39.99. You can see some photos of each playset opened to show its diorama in the image gallery below:
If you’re based in North America and want to pre-order these Console Heroes playsets then you can place your orders at Entertainment Earth right now. The playsets are due to launch later in August 2025.
