    The fact that Sonic is still around, kicking goals, being loved by children everywhere, and making Mario look incompetent; well this makes my childhood smile.

    I never would have even dreamed I’d be buying Sonic figures for my children.

      making Mario look incompetent

      Lol that’s funny. Main line Mario games are matchless. Best performers there are (though Astro Bot does come close).

      This is from someone who grew up with a Genesis. There is a reason Sega stopped making consoles…
