Four new Lego Sonic sets have been revealed
The new sets are designed more for play than the previous Lego Ideas release
Four new Lego sets based on Sonic the Hedgehog have been revealed.
As reported by Jay’s Brick Blog, the four new sets will be released in August 2023 and feature Lego minifg versions of Sonic, Tails and Amy.
Lego had previously released a Sonic set as part of its Lego Ideas line, in which fans create their own dream brick sets and some are put into production.
However, whereas the previous Sonic Lego set was mainly designed for display, these four new sets appear to be aimed at younger Lego fans who want to play with their Lego too.
The four confirmed sets are as follows:
- Sonic’s Green Hill Zone Loop Challenge – £99.99 / £94.99, contains Sonic, Amy, a loop, Eggman, two Badniks and four animals
- Sonic’s Speed Sphere Challenge – $34.99 / £24.99, contains Sonic, a spring, an arch, a ramp, one Badnik and one animal
- Tails’ Workshop and Tornado Plane – $39.99 / £37.99, contains Sonic, Tails, a workshop, a plane and one Badnik
- Amy’s Animal Rescue Island – $49.99 / £46.99, contains Amy, Tails, a piece of Green Hill Zone scenery, one Badnik and three animals
“At Sega, we strive to create memorable experiences with our licensing partners that fans will cherish for years to come,” Sega of America chief business and brand officer Ivo Gerscovich said in a statement.
“The Lego Group is the leader in play, and the perfect partner to bring exciting stories, iconic characters and environments from the Sonic universe to life in fans’ living rooms globally.
“Through our creative collaboration with the Lego Group, Sonic fans of all generations can use their imaginations to play out their favourite Sonic moments, and we can’t wait to see their awesome creations.”
