As the new decade rolls in, I’ve decided I will be reevaluating my focus. I’ve had a wonderful time on Twitter, but I believe it’s for the best that I focus more on my friends, family, and videos. Thank you all for following, see you again someday! ❤️💖💙

So apparently at Toy Fair this year, the company Alpha Toys announced they are making a line of figures based off of the SpongeBob Popsicle and that is probably the best news you'll hear all year.

So I just stumbled across what I think is concept art for a Sonic mascot costume from 1991 and it's honestly one of the most powerful images I have ever seen.

I can not begin to tell you all the hours of sleep I have lost thinking about how Jakks Pacific announced a Baby Blue Yoshi plush and never released it. What happened to it. Where are the prototypes now. Will we ever see this big boy released.

If you ever wanted to get those pesky plumbers in plush form, now you can! Legally? Absolutely not. But this new bootleg of KING!!!! KOOPA!!!!! just started popping up and it’s absurdly amazing for a mass produced knockoff plush.

While everyone's freaking out over the new Sonic movie, I'd like to remind you all of a previous failed Sonic movie pitch. Here's concept art for "Sonic Armageddon", drawn by Ken Penders.
It was pitched to Dreamworks in 2002 but to our knowledge, it never got further than that.

It’s a lot more unsettling in person, trust me.

In the early 2000s, SEGA produced several pieces of Sonic goods for use at promotional events. These included mascot costumes, as well as PROMOTIONAL CHAO PLUSHES!
That Dark Chao plush was the only official one until TOMY released theirs in 2018.

During the late 2000s, 4Kids released a variety of print-out papercrafts based off of their licenses. These are the ones they released for Sonic X. While the 4Kids site is long gone, you can still find their PDFs online.
If you ever made any of these, you're a real one.

After years of waiting, losing, and wanting. I own a SOAP Shoes Sonic plush.
He’s a little used, and doesn’t have his tag, but he’s a SOAP Sonic and he’s mine and he’s amazing.
Never give up on whatever it is you want to do. If you work hard, anything’s possible. Thank you all.

The second picture is from Toy Fair 2019, showing an earlier line up compared to the final character choices.

It's true, there's an official Bonzi Buddy plush. It was manufactured by BD&A, and was released in 2001 as a reward for BonziBUDDY Gold Membership users. He's amazing.

Much like the Dark and Hyper Sonic I also own, he’s surprisingly very well done!

For years now, I’ve been fearful of the day I finally got the Play-By-Play Sonic plush, and that day has come. Seeing it in person is honestly surreal.

I recently got one of the all time best gifts ever - a bootleg Jamaican Pikachu! This guy is clearly unlicensed, but he’s too wacky to not own. These have been produced for decades now, what is the story behind it?

At IAAPA this year, Toy Factory showed off their Sonic plush line! Amy, who was first shown off in 2017, is finally being released. There's also a special variant Sonic. Besides that, it's basically more of the same. Hopefully we see their Sonic movie plushes next year as well!

GE recently added this plush to their website - an emoji-styled 7" Eggman plush! While cute, I hope they announce some new standard styled plushes to go with their older 12" line soon.
This makes two novelty plushes of characters who don't have normal ones - this and Ball Tails.
