Success with my nephew!

I have a funny little story with this plush... An ex boyfriend got me into the Sonic franchise by gifting me a Silver and Blaze plush a few years ago and ever since then, I decided to try getting plushes of all the characters I liked. Sonic was definitely on my list, but he was hard to find. I remember first coming across this exact plush on Amazon but the asking price for him at the time was around $164 US Dollars... Needless to say I passed on him at the time, assuming the price was so high just because he was the last of his kind (like a discontinued plush).Could I have settled for another Sonic plush from another plush maker? I could've. But I wanted a Sonic in the GE style.In the summer of 2019 I decided to randomly look up this plush again and BOOM - not only was he still on Amazon but he was now just $17 US Dollars and change, so I immediately scooped him up finally having a Sonic in my collection. He arrived, but I was disappointed by ONE thing...That one thing is that the picture of the plush on Amazon is slightly misleading. The pictures on Amazon (at the time of this review) show the arms as NOT being attached to the plush when in fact THE PLUSH'S ARMS AND HANDS ARE SEWN ONTO HIM. You can easily snip the stitching on the hands to separate the hands from the rest of his body, you *could*, but most probably don't plan on doing that intentionally especially since there aren't many other poses you can accomplished with a plush who has posed hands. But even with the posed hands and the hands being attached to his body, he's still a very well made plush.The pose he's stuck in is the Classic Sonic pose on the original Japanese box art of Sonic 1 - the classic finger wagging pose with the other hand on his hip. And this plush captures that pose perfectly in soft sculpture form! At first I was a bit turned off by the fact he was posed, but even with this pose in place, I've been able to take a bunch of silly pictures with this plush often with him pointing at humorous things and even in a "Draw me like one of your French girls" pose with the pointing hand supporting his head (the plush was placed on a bed). When it comes to posing this guy in a sitting position, his right hand (sewn to his hip) may look a little awkward, but that's nothing a good camera angle can't compensate for. He will look better when hung up from the gold string on his head (which is there to replicate the look and feel of arcade plushes), but the string may break if the plush is hung up for too long.Besides the pose, he's well stuffed, the arms have some thickness to him (so he won't be a stringy Sonic with spaghetti arms if you cut the stitching), he's a very canon accurate Sonic plush overall - especially for those looking to add a Classic Sonic to their collection. GE's Sonic plushes always aim to be as canon accurate as possible and they're usually aimed toward collectors, but this Classic Sonic is simple enough in his design that he'll survive being played with as a toy (I know he's survived being shoved in a bag and taken on kayaking trips).He makes a great addition to any Sonic plush collection and a perfect gift for Sonic fans and especially fans of Classic Sonic in particular. I also highly recommend him if you want a plush you can take funny photos with, as he's my most photographed plush!

My son love it . It soft good size . My son won’t stop playing with it
