Will Aid Toy Distribution in Europe
The website ToyNews Online reports that Tomy’s European division has reached an agreement with Sega and US based Jazwares to distribute Sonic toys across Europe for the next two years.
The deal will go into effect February 1 and will run through the end of 2012. Under the agreement, Tomy will sell Sonic-branded Jazwares merchandise in Europe. The article clearly states that the agreement is “pan-European,” so it’s unclear whether Jazwares will continue to sell their toys independently in North America.
To celebrate the agreement, the article states that Tomy has some special offers up its sleeve:
To accompany the release of the range, Tomy will be releasing a collection of collectible figurines featuring the classic Sega characters.
A choice of action figures, plush toys and figurines will be available, including 6” Super Posers, posable action figures with over 25 points of articulation; 7” Soft Figures – plush characters and a Sonic the Hedgehog Comic Book Pack, a collector’s edition 200th issue, complete with two exclusive 3¾” posable action figures.

Ok, so they will bring them to Europe now?
FUCK YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! No more importing!
Well, at least till 2012…. :/
Pfff… I’m still here in the goold old USA waiting for Jazwares to make a proper Amy Rose figure to go along with my 10 inch tall Metal Sonic and all my Macross valkyries (the image of Amy hugging my 1/60 Sv-51 is just too awesome and will be a monument to my love for both Sonic and Macross, screw Mario & Gundam) still good for you guys over the other side of the Atlantic.
I hope they wont be overprized like the stuff on ebay, I payed a total of 35 Euro (49 Dollar) to get this god damn Sonic & the Black Knight Figure!
I really hope I can get those for at least 10 Bucks now!
I’m still waiting for Toys ‘R Us to finally sell the werehog, Shadow and Silver figures in Jazwares :/
I’m NOT paying 6 times the money than they are worth form online…
well at least Tomy is making the figures now…
I liked their Pokemon figurines…now no one sells them here in the U.S. anymore :/
