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:

Numskull have been producing a line of model ducks that cosplay as various video game and cult movie characters for a while now, but with the release of their 2nd wave of ducks they have also introduced Sonic and Eggman ducks.
Each Tubbz duck comes in a presentation case shaped like a bath. Even though the models float, they are a bit too top heavy for their own good and don’t float upright on the water’s surface.
You can order the Eggman Tubbz duck by clicking here, or you can order the Sonic Tubbz duck by clicking here. Each duck costs £12.99 each.

Gaming historian Steve Lin of the Video Game History Foundation has managed to win the actual basketball used for the NBA Jam cover art in an online auction. Lin’s intention is to get the item displayed in a museum.
The basketball itself is actually a resin model and it adorned the cover art for the game and various promotional material. NBA Jam made its way onto several SEGA systems including the Mega Drive, Mega-CD and Game Gear back in 1994.

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:
