Newly revealed at the WONDERFUL HOBBY LIFE FOR YOU!! 36 event, Good Smile Company have showcased a first look at their work-in-progress Tails Nendoroid figure. This will be the first Sonic the Hedgehog-themed Nendoroid figure released since the original Sonic the Hedgehog Nendoroid first hit shelves back in 2012. There is currently no set release date and Good Smile have said that the final figure is still waiting SEGA’s final approval.
In addition to the Tails Nendoroid news is the announcement that a Knuckles Nendoroid is on the way as well. There is currently no work-in-progress shot of the figure, but a promotional image does promise that more information is coming soon.
Nendoroids are detailed, super-deformed, licensed figurines manufactured by Good Smile Company in Japan. They normally come with multiple accessories and retail for around 5000 yen, approximately £31 in the current exchange rate.
Good Smile Company is bringing another SEGA character to its lineup of Nendoroid figures, and it’s Puyo Puyo’s Arle Nadja!
Arle joins the likes of Sonic the Hedgehog and Sakura of Sakura Wars fame (both of them!) in the popular figure series, and will come with a slew of accessories; including every kind of Puyo you could ever need, and of course her partner Carbuncle. She’ll also have a swappable face plate, so if you’d rather have her look mildly concerned, that’s a thing you can do. The figure is currently set to release in October 2021, though of course it may be subject to delays as with any figure.
When Tracker isn’t playing SEGA games, he’s talking about SEGA games. Or drawing about SEGA games. Or all of the above. You can also catch him over on Twitter.
EGX Rezzed returned to the Tobacco Docks in London on the 4th to the 6th of April 2019, and as SEGA were an official partner at the event, we went along to see what SEGA stuff we could discover. Watch the video below to see what we found:
First4Figures are teasing 2 Sonic Generations themed Sonic statues. The first features Modern Sonic on his snowboard as per the City Escape slope sections and the second features Classic Sonic on his skateboard also from the same stage. Check out the teaser trailer below:
Things like this make this feature so worth while. Etsy seller KodykoalaToys has created this amazing Sonic mech figurine that is piloted by a smaller Sonic figurine. This is one of the most creative fan builds I think I’ve ever seen. Marvel at its beauty:
