Back in 2014-ish or so I met Tyson Hesse at Emerald City Comic Con. I picked up one of his print copies of his Boxer Hockey Sonic comics and even got him to doodle a little fiery Blaze on the inside cover!

...

...I don't know where it is right now and I can't find the pictures I took of it years ago.

😧

Please just use your imagination it's really cool actually OH RIGHT I NEED TO POST A PHOTO HUH well okay I also have sealed copies of Sonic Riders (Italian) and Sonic Heroes (Korean). I was hunting down all the physical PC Sonic games a few years back and the English versions are kind of hard to come by on ebay these days for cheap. Luckily I'm pretty sure these have English support anyway.

Wow, I don't have anything as cool as some of the stuff on this thread lol. Actually, a lot of my Sonic merch is still back at my parents house so the coolest thing I currently have (that I can take a picture of) is my wrapped 360.

Many nights of Unleashed, Generations, and the Halos were had on this.

Though, my favorite peace of merch is the huge wall scroll I have back at my parent's house. It's a simple one of Sonic and Amy but the thing was so well made that I couldn't help but love it. Got it at fucking Epcot in Disney World of all places too lmao

Probably not as cool as much people here have posted, but I guess it's something: My Sonic CD OEM for Windows 95, Dino Edition. Seems to be kinda rare, and only works on Windows 9X (No, not even that Windows XP patch works):

Amy with a white shirt. Note how the infamous "Sally" name change was fixed here (or never changed at all?)

Localization manual. There are a few peculiarities here. Saying to Spin (Here called "Super Spin Attack") you need to press up, instead of down, while running. Spin Dash have been renamed to "Super Spin Dash" as well, it seems that jumping in the rotating posts in Wacky Workbench is called "Super Grip".

Also, it seems that monitors are now called "Super Items".

I have some cels from The Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog which are really cool.

Honestly, the coolest part about these things is how they weren't stored properly. The paper drawings and the cels themselves were basically stored on top of each other and the paint from the cel glued them together lol. It's just neat to get a sort of "before and after" visual representation of how they transferred the paper originals to the cel.

I have this (non-Badnik) Silver Sonic Doll, that has all of Sonic's eyes, gloves, shoes, and fur silver.

I believe I got it from Ocean City one year.

DAY 15

I'm in a bit of a weird situation when it comes to what counts as merch, let alone what I have, but from what I can absolutely recall, it's that I have a t-shirt I got as a gift with some Sonic characters on it. It looks something like this, but not quite.

The colors are instead black while the characters are placed vertically on yellow backdrop. Sadly I can't seem to find it so any reference proper won't be able to happen for the time being.

I'm afraid beside physical copies of Sonic games and IDW issues, I own very little merch. Doesn't help alot of it is just harder to get in the UK than (I assume) in North America or Japan. Saying that though, I do have this: the RI cover for the 2019 IDW Sonic Annual. No idea why I got sent this by my comic dealer, I didn't pay extra for this, but the fact it is a little rare and has one of my favourite Sonic covers of all time makes it a little special to me. Just a nice surprise I guess.
