the three green emeralds in the master emerald is most likely a reference to the fact that the master emerald gets split into multiple groups of 3 emerald shards in both adventure games
THe mech shouldv'e been a build for Omega- not only would that be another character, but the inclusion of Shadow in the other set means this could've been a Team Dark wave.
Would have bin beetter by game and show acuracy. Mechs seam to sell so lego shoves mechs into alot of stuff. It may seam a bit lazy ( I would almoste always prefers scene builds over vehicles) but it's not the worst thing to go with the set. I'm sure something like Sonic's race car would make less sence rhen this.
I think the main issue with the mech sets is how they’re essentially mechified versions of the characters that use them. For knuckles, if it was an ancient echidna tech kind of mech (though I don’t think they were that advanced), instead of a mechified knuckles, it would be a lot better. That being said though the mech itself isn’t bad
Ooh, that’s a cool interpretation! When I saw it, I was thinking that Tails built Knuckles a mech to protect the Master Emerald with. I thought it made sense that Tails would want to help him out like that.
I feel like the build could have been like an Eggman enemy or mech instead of a Knuckles mech, but it’s not a bad set by any means. I do wonder why across themes January 2024 is the most mech intensive of LEGO’s lineup in the past few years.
@@skeletonking27I try to always start that famously long awaited Marvel vs. DC battle but the only way it isn't outnumbered is if I use all my Batman figures
One explination is warnerbros is parcially to blame cause thier focus on an adult audiance and Batman is the moste popular for that. Sure plenty of young or full adults colect legos but lego's are basicley a kids toy so warner doesn't care or want the kids audiance and uther dc charecters don't get as much atention. They won't let lego do much uther then Batman. @@skeletonking27
I like half of this set- that being Knuckles, Rouge, the glider with its bat snoot, and the Master Emerald. The Knuckles mech is something I’ve yet to make my mind up about, though. It’s a decent build, but it’s yet another LEGO mech thrown in because LEGO can’t think of a decent build. This set would be improved if it was either 1) an extended build based on Hidden Palace with the mural from Sonic 3 and focused more on Rouge trying to steal the Master Emerald or 2) was based more on the final battle of Knuckles’s campaign from Sonic 3 and Knuckles, pitting him and Rouge against Mecha Sonic (who could easily be a brick built figure with alternate parts to accomplish his super form).
I got this just for the figures. Not that it's a bad set, I just wish there was more of angle island presented then just...another mech.. Still a decent set and great minifigures!
DAY 1 purchase for me as I am a great fan of Knuckles and his character. I cannot believe how well they captured the look of the character for this set. Thanks for this awesome Lego Sonic Set review.
Honestly, my main gripe wirh this is that they couldnt do more with a knuckles set. Knuckles isn't really KNOWN for his mechs, unlike Iron Man, or Rocket Raccoon. Most people would only get this set for Knuckles and Rouge, because there's nothing in the games or media that IS remotely like this. They couldve made a display for the Master emerald and the chaos emeralds from either Sonic Adventure or Sonic 3, and when you think of it like that, they could've featured eggman, or Tikal
That's basicley why I ordered it from amazon for. I'll probley use the mech parts for something else. The glider would be good for Batman with a few modifications maby. I didn't play much sonic when it came out. I grewup on nintendo. So I don't have alot of idias on scenes or builds for sonic. I'll probley just use my imagination.
For some reason i found the Shadow and some Minecraft ones at Walmart. And found the No Way Home, ROcket's Warship, (basically all the Marvel ones) at Walmart too. But u might not find them because like 5 day's ago i went, the sets were there. And And now they cleared the shelf's COMPLETELY!@@xTwilightWolvesx
Thanks for review. I like the fact that this is one of the Lego sets that has questionable idea with the great execution, I'm in general fan of such proof of concepts, and this set is no exception, and also I just like it on its own. Although I'll admit that it would've been more satisfying if it was actually like something from Sonic universe, but I still like it.
Do you know what will be great? If someone made Knuckles’ mech suit into a large badnik. That way, people who don’t like the concept of the mech could make it a badnik.
I find this especially funny since knuckles is literally the very last sonic character I’d expect to have a mech he’s all about nature and the natural world it would have made more sense for rouge to have the mech she’s a government agent it’s not that hard to believe they would provide her with technology
My issue with the set is that they could have replaced the original mech with omega who already is a giant robot. Omega is the last team dark character we need in Lego
They made Rouge tha bat OMG !!!!! Need to buy it for her and next they just have to make Cream the rabbit and Silver and i gonna have all of my fav character(since i already get Tails) btw thanks for the review
Put a videogame of Lego Sonic the Hedgehog with all characters all sagas characters like Sonic to shows on Playstation 5 on the year of 2024 or maybe the next year of 2025
I think it’d be cool if the Master emerald had all of the Chaos emeralds, but it is still an amazing addition to have the emerald shards? I guess, inside of the Master Emerald.
This is an early review? I saw this set on shelves about 2-3 weeks ago here in Brazil, but I haven't kept up with the Sonic releases. Guess we got lucky? 😂
This set it’s definitely better when you have it in person and I do appreciate the details and how they did the feet and hands so that makes up for the fact this is a giant action figure. My only complaints are I don’t think the color of Rouges Skin Tone is right it’s more darker and peach colored than that flesh tone they gave her. And I am not really the biggest fan of them printing the tails on the back of the Minifigure it doesn’t really look good and in the case of rouge and knuckles they really could have benefited from a molded tail piece heck i would have mind if they reused some of the loony toons tails like daffy or porkys so I hope in the future they give us more molded tails
This is really crazy cause the venom doc Oc set, war machine mech, shadow and the knuckles set are out for me in the UK rn I have nearly all of them already
Hello Ashnflash i dont know if this counts as a leak but the store that i work at has Lego Sonic Set 76998 in its database, no picture and priced at $34.99 like the base Sonic set and this Kunckles Mech set
nice minifigures, bad price, the mech makes next to no sense for Knuckles and Rouge the bat has stolen a goblin glider and gave it her own touch, neat master emerald, would be neat if the mech get rebuilt as a temple for the master emerald
I mean its a cool looking mech but I hate how It has absolutely nothing to do with Knuckles and is found nowhere in the games. I would have rather had a temple type setting build instead for display.
My question is Lego tired of making these or what because now that makes 6 themes with Mechs in them now Ninjago Star Wars Marvel Sonic Monkie Kid and DC so what’s next Minecraft Mechs
One thing has nothing to do with the other. This is how the Sonic team decides to spend their budget. The Super Heroes team would rather create new piece colours and prints on buildable characters
Why does LEGO keep making these weird character mech sets? I mean anything for Knuckles Rouge and the Master Emerald I guess but Do kids like weird character mechs that aren’t connected to any series they represent?
This set is creating a terribble president. Lego making terrible sets for high demand minifigs. I hope they attempt a 70 USD matter emerald shrine down the line.
the three green emeralds in the master emerald is most likely a reference to the fact that the master emerald gets split into multiple groups of 3 emerald shards in both adventure games
Probably. While I know it isn't, it reminds me of how the Master Emerald was made from multiple green Chaos Emeralds in the Archie comic.
EXCELLENT WORK. ASHNFLASH LEGO KNUCKLES MECH REVIEW
And here I thought there would be the whole set of Chaos Emeralds inside the Master Emerald x'D
7:08
Those three gems are a reference to Knuckles and Rouge's levels in the Sonic Adventure games, where they had to find three Master Emerald pieces.
THe mech shouldv'e been a build for Omega- not only would that be another character, but the inclusion of Shadow in the other set means this could've been a Team Dark wave.
Rouge having a vehicle isn't as weird as Knuckles having a mech
They really made Knuckles like his Lego Dimensions self with those gloves
Oh
Perfect in my opinion I loved dimensions playing it when I had a 2 hour delay for school with my brother
@@ThePickler4567 oh
@@ThePickler4567 Dimensions was such a cool game. I really wish I had it
@@PyroNick01 I couldn't get pass level 5 💀
I feel they could have used the part budget used on the mech and instead made a small temple build to surround the gem
Would have bin beetter by game and show acuracy. Mechs seam to sell so lego shoves mechs into alot of stuff. It may seam a bit lazy ( I would almoste always prefers scene builds over vehicles) but it's not the worst thing to go with the set. I'm sure something like Sonic's race car would make less sence rhen this.
Well they milked a diffrent knuckles set for that idea so u have to get both for a cool display
That rouge got me laughing 😂
The way they made Knuckles’ hands was clever.

You know Rouge's glider would fit pretty well with another famous BAT character 😉
Yeah... like we need more batman sets.

Still a decent set and great minifigures!
I still don't want a Knuckles mech, but if it has to happen, this is pretty well done.
Gonna get it for the figures and the builds for pieces for uther creations.
Fantastic knuckles mech awesome review
I think the Fists for Knuckles was a reference to lego Dimensions were Knuckles took one off and Took Shadows gun and threw it away.😂
If we have all the chaos emeralds and the master emerald There's no doubt we will get a hyper or super figure
DAY 1 purchase for me as I am a great fan of Knuckles and his character. I cannot believe how well they captured the look of the character for this set. Thanks for this awesome Lego Sonic Set review.
your in luck because they are popping up in stores early right now
For me it was day 3 amazon purchase cause I couldn't finde in stores.
I wish Lego Mario was like this instead of the weirdness that is Lego mario
Rouge looking like an austrian painter.
I am definitely going to get this the day it gets released
Good luck because it’s gonna be gone as soon it is released
Hopefully not!
@@Xiboo_xit is in targets rn I got mine there yesterday
@@Xiboo_x I tried getting the shadow set that recently released and yet still nothing
@@OfficialMrBurns have you tried online? My mom got it for me for Christmas on the Lego site
This is a really cool set. Having played Sonic on the Sega console, I’d like to look into this theme of sets. Very nice minifigures.
Gonna get this for the minifigures. This sonic line makes me wish we got Mario minifigs :(
Hi ash this lego set looks amazing and i love knuckles mech and i also ❤️ your videos keep up the great amazing videos

Already have it, it really is amazing! Love getting Knuckles and Rouge!
Where did you get this set early? I’m in the UK and all of the retailers are selling from the 1st January.
I found it at Target in the US@@xTwilightWolvesx

But Knuckles was only at one Target, out of the 3 I went too@@xTwilightWolvesx
Picked it up at target yesterday really great set!
Finally! A Rouge The Bat minifig!
So he is the physically strongest character, what does he need.... a mech.... yeeesss, that's the thing...

I got this way early for christmas this set is perfect idc about the mech I was waiting for you to review this
9:42 makes me laugh for some reason
The mech is cool but I feel like a little temple set would’ve fit these characters better,oh wel
Do you know what will be great? If someone made Knuckles’ mech suit into a large badnik. That way, people who don’t like the concept of the mech could make it a badnik.
Yes! I need inspiration like this. If I come up with anything good, I'll put it on rebrickable.
It does need the articulation.
I just hope they make the mind controling mech from sonic boom. It would be super cool
Awesome video ashnflash
I think the set would be better if they left out the mech and did the location on eather the hidden zone or more on the master emerald temple ruins
I find this especially funny since knuckles is literally the very last sonic character I’d expect to have a mech he’s all about nature and the natural world it would have made more sense for rouge to have the mech she’s a government agent it’s not that hard to believe they would provide her with technology
Maybe one day there will be a LEGO game of it
Bummer with the Rouge head misprint, but also a cool misprint to have for the collection. I know just2good would love having that misprint.
My issue with the set is that they could have replaced the original mech with omega who already is a giant robot. Omega is the last team dark character we need in Lego
I'm collecting every Sonic set, can't wait to get this one. The figures are GORGEOUS
They made Rouge tha bat OMG !!!!! Need to buy it for her and next they just have to make Cream the rabbit and Silver and i gonna have all of my fav character(since i already get Tails) btw thanks for the review
Tbh I feel like the mech could have been replaced by Chaos.
I found this set at my local target today early!
i think instead of a useless mech for knuckles we shouldve got omega or gamma. or better yet a build of one of the chaos forms wouldve been so cool
knuckles is my favorite, so this set is a must for me. The build seems really fun and those minfigs are phenomenal
we will get the master emerald
go team eggman
Put a videogame of Lego Sonic the Hedgehog with all characters all sagas characters like Sonic to shows on Playstation 5 on the year of 2024 or maybe the next year of 2025
I freaking love it!
I got mine from Meijer before Christmas.
That misprint will be really rare and expensive soon, just saying.👀
I can’t believe you got a misprinted Rouge 🦇. First the Hufflepuff Book incident, now this! Does Lego have beef with you or something!?😮🥩
Ahahha that is far from the only sets I have had misprints 😂
Give mecha/metal sonic a mech
NICE 👍
Since Knuckles got a mech, imagine if Sonic, Tails, Amy, Rogue, and Shadow also had their own mechs as well.
This mech need a upgrade!
I think it’d be cool if the Master emerald had all of the Chaos emeralds, but it is still an amazing addition to have the emerald shards? I guess, inside of the Master Emerald.

Am I the only one that sees how disable the rouge figure looks?
Hello Ashnflash i dont know if this counts as a leak but the store that i work at has Lego Sonic Set 76998 in its database, no picture and priced at $34.99 like the base Sonic set and this Kunckles Mech set
The Rouge misprint is amazing because or how rare it is, but kinda annoying when you want to display the set.
i feel like they should have given Knuckels are real tail!
If you get all the Lego sonic sets you're going to get the characters from SA2 In Lego minifigure form
When The Hell Does Knuckles Needs A Mech!? & Rouge A Glider!? Rouge Can Fly On Her Own!! Knuckles Doesn’t Need A Mech, He Is Crazy Strong!!
Knuckles could have had a better head mold,I mean like longer akidna hair thingys
KNUCKLES
i saw this at target a month ago
I still hate the limb peices as it limits poses
Would probably pick this up discounted for the master emerald but not a fan of modern sonic/adventure designs.
nice minifigures, bad price, the mech makes next to no sense for Knuckles and Rouge the bat has stolen a goblin glider and gave it her own touch, neat master emerald, would be neat if the mech get rebuilt as a temple for the master emerald
wow so u where mad of the ninjago mech hands but here u love them now thats controversial
Rouge be looking like Hitler 😭
The piece to price ratio isn't that bad. I mean Amy's island is way worse compared to this. If I remember it correctly.
Do you know da wae?
Somebody had to say it 😤👐
I mean its a cool looking mech but I hate how It has absolutely nothing to do with Knuckles and is found nowhere in the games. I would have rather had a temple type setting build instead for display.
When do you think we're getting a Harry Potter mech?
I'm not really a lego fan, but this is so stupid I want it.
I hate to be that guy but would you ever concider selling the missprint
I SAW THIS AT KHOL’S BUT I DIDN’T BUY IT
Such a random set
My question is Lego tired of making these or what because now that makes 6 themes with Mechs in them now
Ninjago Star Wars Marvel Sonic Monkie Kid and DC so what’s next Minecraft Mechs
It really pisses me off that these characters can get dual-molded legs or arms and Rogue and Cyclops in the X-Jet set can not.
One thing has nothing to do with the other.
This is how the Sonic team decides to spend their budget.
The Super Heroes team would rather create new piece colours and prints on buildable characters
Why does LEGO keep making these weird character mech sets? I mean anything for Knuckles Rouge and the Master Emerald I guess but
Do kids like weird character mechs that aren’t connected to any series they represent?
