Fun fact! Did you know that Sonic was first introduced in the Summer of 1991 for the Sega Genesis console? You got that right – that was 25 years ago. I remember playing Sonic Adventure 2 on the GameCube with my cousin and younger brother, and screaming furiously when I couldn’t get all the golden rings. It was super satisfying to watch as I bulldozed over all the cars and they went careening down the hill. Ah yes. Unlike me, you’ve probably played titles other than Shadow the Hedgehog and Sonic Adventures 2. So, for fans of Sonic the Hedgehog, now is the time to head on over to the Build-A-Bear website and order an online exclusive set.

It will cost you $35.00, plus $5.95 for shipping and handling. It comes with a stuffed golden ring, and a 4×9 inch art print. But wait! There’s more. You get to pick one of two packing options:

• Please do not dress my stuffed Sonic, so I can experience the fun for myself; or
• Dress this furry friend Sonic of mine, so I can get my hands on him as soon as possible!

You can even add a gift box to surprise yourself. The holidays are an amazing time, gamers. A time for furry fun.

If you’re looking for more stocking stuffers or stuffed characters, you’ve got to check out the gigantic Ditto plushie! They’re life-sized, according to the statistics for Ditto on the Pokédex. It is 1 foot tall and 9 pounds. The stuffed version varies just slightly from those numbers. If you’re looking for other items to add to your collection of collectibles before the year ends, definitely check out the Overwatch Reaper statue available at the Blizzard Gear store!

So, Gamers, are you going to purchase a Sonic the Hedgehog plushie for yourself or a family member? Are you a fan of the franchise? Let us know in the comments section below. We would love to hear from you!
