It's no secret that Lego Dimensions is getting more expansion packs with new properties, but one of the more interesting rumours we've heard lately is that Sega's mascot could be rendered in block form.
Speculation began back in September 2015, when code words relating to the next wave of Lego Dimensions packs surfaced - one of them being "S". This rather tenuous link to Sonic the Hedgehog has been backed up by comments from "Lego insider" CM4Sci, who recently posted the following messages on Lego fan site EuroBricks:
Sonic's coming!
I also know for a fact Sonic is in if that confirms anything.
The name CM4Sci might not mean much to non-Lego fans, but according to Brick Enquirer, he's a trusted source within the community and has been right on many previous occasions. Another code word was "KR", which is speculated to be the famous 1980s TV series Knight Rider.
Super Girl and Green Arrow are all but confirmed for the next wave of Dimensions packs.

Interesting
That certainly would be odd. Well, I guess Portal's a video game, and Sonic does like to hop franchises (Smash, Olympics, Wreck-it Ralph). It's just, Sonic characters wouldn't look right as Legos, and the only Lego sets I could think of for Sonic would be Tails/Eggman inventions, like planes and bosses and whatever.
@MetaRyan it dose seem very odd.
Its bizarre, but a better alternernative than rebooting the series for the 204th time
A grain of salt for sure. Sonic would look ridiculous in LEGO minifigure form.
That Lego Sonic is fugly.
i guess both nintendo and sega are neglecting their anniversaries this year.
@Jamotello SEGA yeah but Nintendo's done quite a bit for Pokemon's 20th so far. Metroid's no surprise and Zelda had its next game delayed but it'll at least show up at E3 along with whatever new goodies Nintendo will reveal.
@retro_player_22
Because it isn't Lego, it's Paladone's Pixel Bricks
The Tails one is much better though.
A Lego sonic, eh? I could imagine swappable hair for when he's super sonic. That would be nifty.
@MetaRyan There's stupid amount of Eggrobos and such. Sprinkle in a few locations for larger sets, and you've got a sizable Lego set line.
I would love this! The game needs more video game representation anyway!
Sonic and the Doctor in the same game?!
I could see it happens as it's the franchise 25th anniversary this year, so that's a better way to celebrate it than bringing out another Boom game..
At first I thought this was another one of those Cuusoo/Ideas sets and I'd be like 'stop reporting on this, this never confirms anything'. But then it was this, so now I'm interested.
Although can you blame me for getting it wrong? I've seen at least seven sites report on Lego Ideas sets being put into review, when in actual fact it means absolute zilch.
If this is true, we will have Sonic, the Justice League and Doctor Who in the same game. Welcome to the planet Earth, ladies and gentlemen.
Sonic vs the flash would be amazing lol
@Shikinouta It only got rebooted once then forgot it got rebooted
For @TheRealThanos' own amusement, here's what I can put together at midnight, Italian time.
Blue streak, builds by,
Sonic the Blockhead.
Too fast for the block-shaped eye
Sonic the Blockhead.
Sonic,
his pieces stick,
Sonic,
don't you guys nitpick!
Sonic,
he's the fastest minifig!
Looks for lingering studs,
Sonic the Blockhead!
And canisters as well,
Sonic the Blockhead!
Sonic,
he's the blockiest dude,
Sonic,
your wallet's truly screwed,
Sonic,
can't make this up if we tried,
it's a DLC you'd better buy,
buy it or your kids are gonna cry!
Sonic is in Lego Dimensions? Who's next? Rayman? Roman Reigns? Jem and the Holograms?
If Michael Knight and Sonic The Hedgehog end up being in LD, I might actually play it.
Does that mean we would play a scenario in which we see Sonic's career gradually plummet, ending with a binge of booze, drugs and Mobius hookers?
