Sonic Frontiers - Sonic The Hedgehog F4F Statue Pre-Orders Now Live

Not really sure why this is labelled specifically as a Sonic Frontiers thing since it's kind of just Sonic with the Chaos Emeralds, but either way it looks nice.

@Lizuka Well his ears are quite visibly on the front so I suppose that makes it a front-ears model.

Game not on card, not buying, and I don't want to buy related merchs either.

I'm just wondering when Phazon Suit Samus will be shipped out. I ordered that thing so long ago, and the wait has been much longer than it had been for Gravity and Varia Suit Samus...

@Lizuka Cus Sega want people to buy Sonic Frontiers again...

@Maxz
Yes the posing and expression are very evocative of Frontiers.

@Lizuka
SEGA seems to be positioning Sonic Frontiers as the new flagship entry in the series, since it’s become the most commercially successful Sonic game in years and is reportedly the best‑selling 3D Sonic title of all time. I don’t understand the hype: after watching gameplay, the story, world design, and level layouts didn’t appeal to me. I’m not a long‑time Sonic fan, so maybe I’m missing something, but I’ve never understood why many people rank Sonic as the second‑best platforming franchise after Super Mario.

"Why, yes, ladies, I DO own a Sonic The Hedgehog statue where he's noticeably thrusting his hips forward. Why, yes, I am single, how did you guess?"

@canaryfarmer gamer girls have more game than you'd think

i'm not one of them, but they're out there

For that authentic Sonic Frontiers feel, the statue pops out of existence if you move too far away from it.

why is that the sonic 06 logo what are they planning

@Markatron84 Needs a random floating rail way above Sonic too.

@RareFan I don't think Sonic is as highly rated as you've seen. There were literal decades where 3D Sonics were just mediocre at best and Frontiers continued that trend. But Frontiers is also open world and released at a time when people still wanted open world games.

But anyone with two eyes and a some sense for what makes a game decent (people like this are honestly hard to come by, I work with the public, so it's easy to see how many don't pay attention to the simplest of things) could likely see all of the design flaws, bugs and lack of QoL in Frontiers. I bought it partially blind, but couldn't bring myself to get past the second island or so.

Such a middling experience that is not worth playing unless you want to understand the memes.

@The21zonz the end times, most likely.

@Kilroy a random floating rail that, get this, also disappears.

@The21zonz kissable lips

I would maybe buy the standard Sonic statue, if it's not in range around 300€ or even higher.
I'm not willing to pay much more than 100 for statues.

Re: updated article for Super Sonic:

This looks like the blandest possible thing F4F could have possibly created. Whatever is holding the emeralds together (is it wind?) looks very uninspired, but Frontiers as a whole is very uninspired, so I guess this fits in a strange, still disappointing way. Lol.

Holy expletive!! Anybody else sick of everyone selling them something? I can barely buy a game, let alone a checks notes Sonic statue the price of a Switch 2?

Well, I'm probably not getting this anytime soon.

That's the price of a Switch 2😂

That's ok, I have the Smash Amiibo, thanks.
