    That whitish paint-thing between their eyes is actually intentional. In the movies they did it to get rid of Sonic's single eye with to pupils, but to still remain the outlines of it. So, on a $15 figure such a thing just doesn't look really good.

  • @Drout

    I think the reason that Sonic's head has those dark spike colors and the mold line as well the ears been a separate from the mold is because probably this was suppose to be a light up head feature to simulate his speed power at some point, but they decided to not do it and instead include that feature to the super form instead. Its pretty much the same thing with the Super Sonic and Super Shadow which they have those strange spikes that allows the light to go trough much easier for their power up light gimmick.

    I miss the days when Marvel Legends were just $15. That was the max I was willing to pay for them. Now I just wait for clearance. The blue lines in Sonic's head are his quills. They are supposed to glow.

  • @davidmarrero9608
    @davidmarrero9608 Месяц назад +6

    The clear lines on the back of the Sonic figure was supposed to have a light up feature which they re-released him in a 4 pack with Shadow, Knuckles, and Tails (with tails having an angry head sculpt) they axed the light up feature on the first wave reiease but did it on the 4 pack which removed head movement and torso movement. They did it too with the Super Sonic having those clear lines and Shadow by re-releasing Super sonic with a light up feature but making a new figure being Super shadow.

    • @davidmarrero9608
      @davidmarrero9608 Месяц назад +1

      @AnthonysCustoms it's a plastic mold inside but you get the idea since I'm guessing they released the first wave way too quickly and originally wanted to add the light up feature but held off me to do it on the packs. They may make a fourth wave of figures since we got a super shadow with light up features as I mentioned maybe they might make him without the light up features. Only issue idk who else they might make maybe it being Eggman's grandfather and the *spoiler* character we see at the end.

    The blue quill marks and seam line on the back of the head are from the light function featured on Sonic from a 4 pack at Targét. So i guess they just used the mold feom that figure. I think now that these are hit amongst the collecting community, we will get another wave of Sonic 3 figs with a hero Sonic figure.

    Can’t even start to describe how cool these look, especially for the price they’re not perfect but this is the prime example of how much very figure should be, the QC for sonic is worse but we can see the effort that was put here, it’s amazing
    I totally agree with your points and I think that these could have been even better but for the price? These can blow some imports out of the water and I’m. It even joking
    For 15 bucks and compared to what you get for the price and even with all the defects it gets 100/10
    The arm on my sonic was loose I admit it, some defects are just bee but hey.
    I could add some problems too but honestly who cares

    As a figure, I enjoy Sonic more, with the lighter head and the regular hips instead of the Y-joints Shadow has, making him easier to pose. Both are excellent figures and Jakks really outdid themselves with these. Tails less so but still.
    Knuckles is part of Wave 2 alongside Super Sonic, which may be why it's hard to find in the US for the time being. As a European I'll have to wait a few more weeks at least to get them I guess. Wave 3 leaked a while back and contains, and this is spoilers for the movie for those who don't want to know, Super Shadow alongside a repack of Knuckles, Sonic with the Master Emerald and Gerald Robotnik.
