Good for you back in 2012 I was 6 years old and didn't know what the hell a sonic the hedgehog was and I live in the philippines so I definitely couldn't experience it.
You know there's some really sick irony in *lampposts* being that balloon's worst enemy, given they usually RESPAWN him. Also I'll be honest, given 2011 was meant to promote Sonic Generations, what the hell was *Splash Hill* doing as the theme when that song is the only existence Sonic 4 even has in Generations? I don't really think too many kid Sonic fans were going to know of it too well when it was digital only in the mid-7th gen. I guess someone just kinda picked a theme out of a hat and never bothered changing it. I mean...come on, Modern Sonic's flying through *a city* use Escape From the City! No I don't care it's the wrong coastline. =P
Sounds kind of complicated and hard to make but seeing from some of the balloons with multiple characters on them, such as the Trolls balloon they can probably do it.
Update: The Sonic balloon from 2011-2013 reappeared in 2021 for the 30th anniversary. Important announcements include mentioning Colors Ultimate while playing the Colors orchestral title screen.
you know... I wonder where that kid that got hit with the Sonic balloon is today you guys still think that kid remembers that? you think he went to go buy a Super Nintendo after that?
I imagine one would probably remember a 21 foot Sonic The Hedgehog balloon falling on them, as that's probably a pretty life altering experience, though yeah I do wonder where they are nowadays.
I bet that kid is about over 20 years old now and days but still would be really funny to get like a mini interview with him just so the world can know what really happened after that kid got hit with the balloon but man I bet if any kid got hit with a Sonic balloon in a parade I bet they would feel honored or something like that if they loved the Sonic games back in the day xD still betting the dude got a Super Nintendo right after that happened to him but we shall never know
I wonder what his reaction would be if he (or she) saw the MODERN sonic balloon do u think that he had almost had a heart attack or screamed in anger that sonic is back in the parade or he just went home and played on his Nintendo console? I would really like to know XD
nowadays macy thanksgiving parades don't want to feature sonic, this is because of high winds on late November where the parade usually takes place, the wind makes it very likely that sonic will eventually pop.
When i first saw the sonic the hedgehog float in the Macy's thanksgiving day parade it was like waking up on Christmas morning and i loved it and it always brings a smile to my face when i see the sonic the hedgehog float
I heard that they tear up the old balloons ask the creator of the character, to sign a autograph and they will give it away in the Macy’s Thanksgiving day parade, 100th anniversary
@@cesararana261Really? Cause they usually every year they have 20+ balloons so putting them all in a storage might be difficult even if it is teared up
@@SuperParkerBro27 well where I heard this from was Jeff Kinney the creator of diary of a wimpy kid? In a podcast he had with ls mark and Veronica. he said that they shredded the first Greg heffley balloon and Macy ask him to sign a piece of the balloon then later he said they’ll give it out for the 100th anniversary. So I’m curious did Macy ask other cartoon creators to do the same thing like Jeff did. If so how long did Macy did it for because if they did it for this long we might autograph from people who are no longer with us.
I got a Sonic Forces Ad Edit: Now I got a Froot Loops Ad. Edit: Now it's an Ad for Pizza Hut. Edit: Now it's HERSHEY'S. Edit: Now it's a football game I will never play/buy.

Sonic was unfortunately absent this year. We did get Pikachu who I think has been MIA for while, which is nice. Honestly Mario never being in the parade is surprising given his sheer popularity and iconic nature. But considering Angry Birds and Skylanders have been in the parade....Yeah I don't really know what qualifies a character.
6 years later… I’m back again and nostalgia is high in the air. This video is one of the reason why I love sonic in the first place. I will definitely be back again in 6 years in the future
i was really disappointed when sonic didnt appear this year :/ i was really excited to see him plus i remember him showing up last time i watched the parade
agh im getting so much nostalgia i remember going to see the 20th anniversary sonic balloon at the Macy's parade when he first appeared in 2011 (specifically for him lol) god my heart feels so warm aw thanks for this video ❤
They didn't have the Sonic balloon this year unfortunately. They had a great opportunity to promote Sonic Mania and Sonic Forces by having that balloon come back.
A big smile appeared on my face everytime the music begins with the original sonic balloon. Its got a magical feeling to it, seeing him fly there. I could imagine myself being sooo excited for this when I was young, sadly, I live nowhere near these events take place. But its always nice to see them in videos.
It's a GOOD thing Sonic wasn't in the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade because in 1997 other than at least 3 were cut. Cat In The Hat put someone in coma ruclips.net/video/hf_NahDOzDE/видео.html. Also Macy's usually keeps the older models as seen i many images they still have character that have been the parade since the early 2000's. Last the reason the people were dancing to the Sonic was because Sonic was most likely going to be in the 2014 Parade but wasn't due to how negative Sonic Boom was seen!(Sonic Boom the game NOT the TV show and comics in my opinion are pretty good)
Not all of Sonic Boom was negative, Fire & Ice and the Sonic Boom TV show actually got positive views, also its nice seeing Sonic in a parade hopefully he'll return someday.
Also like the modern sonic balloons in 2011-2013 He should have been in this years parade to promote Forces. And maybe they could make a classic sonic parade in Honor of Mania.
with forces being viewed as mediocre it wouldn't be a good idea for sonic to be in the parade this year. I'am hoping sonic returns in 2019 for the his movie being made by paramount
Annnd a few years later, Sonic is back in the Macy's Parade! It's rumored that a teaser or trailer for Sonic 2 will be released tomorrow with the balloon's appearance. Update: No sonic movie trailer was shown during the parade
Ah yes my favorite Sonic Villain, A lamp post. And don't forget his sidekick the trees! XD --- Bad jokes aside, Awesome video! Been watching your videos like crazy since I found your channel last week and I love them! Lots of research and well put together. Can't wait to see more! :D
I woke up this morning hoping he would make a return due to sonic mania and forces but after 3 hours of watching boring balloons (except pikachu and others) and hearing people lip sync, sonic was not seen... Oh well there's always next year
I remembered being at New York back in 2011. On the day before Thanksgiving, they would show the balloons being inflated. Sonic was among them and I was very excited to see it. The promotional art you showed at 15:14 was available as a paper bag when you went shopping at the Macy's Store on Thanksgiving Day. I still have the bag to this day.
The model made for the Modern Sonic balloon is in the Macy's Parade Studio. They keep most of the models they make for tons of different balloons from throughout the parade's history.

Haha...I was at the 2012 parade and when Sonic came by I was so happy, screaming to my mom and everything. :3
KatieTheThriller my god ur so lucky i never saw him becoz i was a fan of sonic in 2017 so I couldn't see him

sonic always did that in the 90s
he must've done it in the 1997 parade too
Damn, Eggman has been going with his plans to stop Sonic all wrong, all he needed to do is to cover every zone with lamp posts
Prince Fluff NOOOOO *slam*
xD
he did in starlight zone, yet to no success....
Chemical Lamp Zone
Ikr, but the plan sadly failed in Starlight zone.
If they redesign the balloon, they should make it where Tails, while flying is carrying Sonic!
Good idea, right?
Sounds like a pretty great idea actually :D
You should work with them, great idea
Brilliant!
That'd be pretty hard to make.

I think Mario making the parade with Cappy on the Odyssey would be perfect!
TheSuperMarioGamer I would love to see this happen

The odyssey could've made a float and Mario or cappy could be balloons.
I Want a Mario Balloon!!!!!!!!!!!
It would be an epic gamer moment

Underrated comment
I feel bad for that poor kid, Sonic landed on him.
I bet he was happy not that he was hurt but he enjoyed really close to sonic
Sonic thought the kid was a badnik...
Maybe Sonic thought the post was a checkpoint
In Sonic's universe, it is a animal capsule.
Maybe he wanted to destroy it, because he thought Robotnik made it.

He was 15, well, 16 nowadays but he was a teen.
Sega did, since 1991.
@Tyler: He was 16 in Jam and 15 in Heroes... and who knows if Generations counts but if so, he'd be 16 again.
I think he's 11 then adventure 15
A Blob what an age-changer is sonic DECIDE ON HIS AGE ALREADY SEGA, HE IS 16, BUT TURNS 15 AGAIN IN FORCES
