  1. I hope the Modern line doesn't slow down the Classic line. Seriously, I want classic versions of EVERYTHING. I want badnik statues too

    Might have to get a F4F Modern statue. :v:
    I like classic Sonic games better than I like the current games, but I'm of the controversial opinion that Modern looks better and is more relevant to the series and my enjoyment of it right now. Classic Sonic in Generations was okay but by no means a return to brilliance - Modern Sonic was a far superior experience if you ask me.

    Simply by design, the Modern style is far more suited to figures. The longer limbs and non-spherical bodies make them easier to pose and less awkward looking. I'm still going to collect the entire line of both Classic and Modern, but the latter might just end up being my favourite.

    Most definitely - I have both of the 10'' figures that Jazwares did (Modern and Classic) and I think Modern looks way better - that said, putting Classic next to him made the pair look twice as good so if I can get both I'm not too fussed. :v:

    First off, I'd like to say that I'm jealous of those sweet posable Metal Sonic statues...


    Anyway, I saw this cheap Knuckles plush last year so I decided to buy it.

    It's a bit astonishing how they were still selling it....

    So, what's the best possible Metal Sonic figure to buy? I've seen various kinds around on Amazon.

    Ah yes, I have that. Also got the Sonic and Tails from the set. Shame they are counterfeit; read that tag again.

    That Modern Sonic statue looks really nice. Gonna have to pass on this one though, as I already have the exclusive Classic Knuckles and exclusive Classic Tails on preorder and I'm not made of money. I prefer the Classic designs by a mile so I'd much rather just stick with those.

    Sonic again, plus his shitty design for Nintendo kids, great!

    Someone send them the hint that Robotnik is waiting.

    They've talked about his before. Basically, they want to keep the entire cast in scale, an in order to do that Robotnik would have to be almost double the height of everyone else. Heck, they even want to do another Classic Sonic statue because the first one was originally just a stand alone product, so he's slightly out scale with everyone else and has a much less dynamic pose. Personally, I'd more interested in seeing Rouge than anyone else. But that said, I wouldn't say no to a Robotnik piece regardless of size.

    So remember these pint glasses from a while back? They seemed to have stopped making them. But I got lucky. I went into a Spencers and noticed that they still had some. Not only did they have them but since they were trying to get rid of them since they don't make them anymore, they were 75% off. $6.50 for 4 glasses? Yes please.

    Everything went better then expected.

    Alack! Should've known. Oh well, I'm not a dedicated collector but it still looks nice...

    Oh, I really had no idea. I am not serious about getting all of them, so I never cared if they were off in scale or non-standard. I would rather ruin the desires of a few people with too much money and focus on Sonic toys than not have a Robotnik ever.

    And yes, we need more titties on these statues. Massive breasts with glowing EXCLUSIVE cleavage.

    I would definitely drink my fluids out of these glasses. Great merchandise pictures.

    Fuck, they stopped making those? I planned on buying some eventually when I live on my own someday. No way in hell I could ever buy one of those while living here.

    Speaking of glasses, did the Classic shot glasses end up existing? Or did they only feature Modern?

    No, but they did make these, although I don't like them as much

    There's only 4 decent ones around. The 10inch Jazwares one, 3inch Jazwares one, F4F statue and mini F4F one. The others all suck royally, be they new or old pieces. Jazwares plush (not out yet), Gacha head dangler, and Gacha figure to build.

    The 10inch and 3inch Jazwares pieces are probably the best ones to pick up depending on what you want and how much you're willing to spend. The sculpts on each are really good, the only difference really being the fragility of the large one and the prices. The mini F4F one comes in a set with 5 other characters all of whom look absolutely brilliant. Careful if you get these online though. They've been pirated to high hell and look really bad. Of course the statue is all kinds of amazing, but I'd guess it's not what you're looking for :P

    I'll probably get either the 10inch Jazwares one or the 3inch collection.

    Holy hell, though. I wish I could get that Metal Sonic f4f statue. That shit's overpriced as hell.
