Shaped as a blue minifigure that drops and collects gold studs in place of Rings, he keeps all of Sonic’s trademark speed, Spin Dash and wisecracks while being cheerfully aware he’s made of plastic. The variant later slips into other continuities—most visibly as a free “switch Sonic into his LEGO form” skin in Sonic Superstars—but he remains, at heart, the same thrill-seeking hero from a world built entirely out of ABS bricks.
