First 4 Figures Announces Sonic Anniversary Statue

Plenty of Pictures and Details for a Figure You Can’t Buy

This morning, statue and collectible maker First 4 Figures announced its world wide resin license has been renewed with Sega. In short, it means the company can make more Sonic figures going forward, including Modern Sonic.

“This is a worldwide license which means that we are re-launching our classic Metal Sonic statue for our European and Australasia customers,”the company explained.

To mark the occasion, F4F announced a special Sonic figure that won’t be available to the general public. It’s a 20th anniversary figure, and different versions will be made for different territories due to the classic Sonic art being different at the time of Sonic’s 1991 release.

“These will not be sold anywhere, but you still might be able to get your hands on one… you never know when or where they might pop up!” explained Kellie Parker in Sega’s separate blog post on the matter.

Photos of the statue in production, as well as finished models for both the United States and Europe, are in the gallery below. Thanks to all the individuals–too many to mention here–who clued us in via our News Tips system today.

And that’s actually a really cool idea to release different versions based on the Classic Sonic stock art of the region during 1991 ^^ It’ll cause nostalgia to whoever owns it

Man, pack this with Sonic Generations in a limited edition steelbook case, commemorative 20th anniversary booklet, 20th anniversary soundtrack CD, and a huge 20th anniversary poster, and SEGA can charge me whatever the hell you want for it.
