Sonic the Hedgehog Cinematic Universe Thread (& Knuckles)

I had the post credits scene of Sonic 1 spoiled for me thanks to the Youtube algorithm. I can't remember what I searched for exactly but the first fucking result was an upload of that scene, with the thumbnail making it blatantly obvious the surprise of that scene. For me, having to be careful of spoilers sucks because it feels like you can't do anything and have to be super extra careful, and being super extra careful when doing a regular-ass everyday activity is just no fun.

 

You're not alone, though. If a creator wants you to be spoiled, it's OK.

 

It appears some of the figures have made their way out into the wild, or at least where people have been able to get up close and personal with them.

 

Sonic looks fatter compared to 2's figure. Looks like they beefed up the limbs for the figures. Not a fan of that face on Sonic.

 

​

Articulation on all these guys are nuts. It looks like they have some butterfly style shoulder ball joints, wrist ball joint, a hinge for the fingers, swivel thighs, ankle rockers. It's hard to tell if Shadow has the same ab ball joint as Sonic, but most likely he does. Tails appears to lack it.

These guys are gonna be super posable. Where the fuck is Knuckles? He's gonna be tight.

Ya these look awesome. Looks like the eyes are a separate piece inside the head. It gives them depth. Never got any of the previous movie figures. Definitely want these.

 

I like the scale and sculpts better on Movie 2 figures, but the articulation on Movie 3 looks like these guys are gonna be fun to pose.

 

Normally im not really into action figures, ive always preferred cuddly plushies when it comes to merch, but these actually look pretty cool. Having sonic and shadow figures posed together would be a pretty neat decoration

 

Finally some love for Tails.

 

Knuckles MIA wave 1...

​

no...

 

I love how that's literally just his standard game design with movie eyes and slightly thicker limbs. We've gone from unrecognizable ugly sonic to borderline copy-paste shadow, but it works.

 

I mean, it's not like Knuckles and Tails got redesigns even as radical as Hesse's Sonic, so that's not really a surprise. Shadow even has precedent for this, since his Sonic Boom design was barely any different anyway.

 

He looks great! Looks like maybe you can give him his Sonic 3 winpose.

 

Supposedly a screenshot of the redone version of Sonic 2's post-credit scene for Sonic 3 got leaked

Spoiler: Soiler in case it's real

Sonic 2 for reference:

It's so deep fried and it also looks like Shadow got stung by bees, so I'm not actually sure if it's real. The main thing I'm noticing is that Shadow's chest hair puff thing is bigger.
Either way it's something to talk about while we continue to wait for that damn trailer.

 

Yeah that doesn't look exactly real, it's got this oily look to it that reminds me of AI art. Probably a hoax

 

I came in expecting more toys and you disappointed me with this.

 

Just more 17 days.........

 

Paramount Television Studios has Shutdown.

What this actually means I don't really know. I've only really took a brief glance. From my understanding, PTS weren't the production company behind Knuckles. That was handled by Original Film and Paramount Pictures. I couldn't find PTS credited in the show itself or in external sources.

I think the The New Adventures of Stone and An Actual Stone and any other rumored Sonic shows for Paramount + are safe. If not, any current projects are being handled by CBS Studios moving forward.

 

Unless you're referring to their previous iteration which was Paramount Television (which in turn was originally Desilu Productions which got turned into Paramount Television by Gulf+Western), Paramount Television Studios had no involvement in Star Trek Productions. Paramount Pictures did produce the films and still exists (I believe they're seeking a merger with SkyDance Productions atm), and CBS Television Studios which currently produces both new Star Trek productions & produced the Knuckles miniseries still exists and is likely absorbing some assets from their closing sister studio.

tldr; This doesn't really affect Star Trek or (more relevantly) the Sonic Cinematic Universe.
