I thought I'd post this artwork that was released by Sega of America. This looks new to me, but they have been known to reuse art before.

Clicky

Kinda looks like Sonics' spikes are a bit... low.

That image is so awkward to look at, I stopped staring at it after 5 seconds. XP

Cute! I like it. Although Sonic's mouth still looks weird and off-center. Ah well, don't worry Uekawa. You have to get better sometime. :P

Damn, he's also the shortest one there. That's funny. Almost as funny as the alien wearing a Santa hat. But nothing is as cute or funny as Bayonetta wearing a Christmas star and holding a red-swaddled Ai Ai.

I love it!
C'mon I thought that sega was never going to associate their alien branding with sonic, but looks like they show'd me.

Sega's PR is becoming probably the most awesome PR I've ever seen.

I bet that's just Abe from ALP.

Sonic looks out of place, somehow, like he was just thrown in front at the last second. I think it's because he doesn't seem to have much in the way of shading that the other two have(AiAi is just a head). Other than that, love the picture.

In that artwork, Sonic looks like a girl and Knuckles at same time.

Well, can't wait to see Rule 34 hit Bayonetta and Aiai.


And SEGA's PR strikes again.
