@smitty-81 Alright I thought you guys may have at least gotten a subtle hint by now. 

Gotta go fast

Gotta go fast

I don't see it. Splain it to me dude. What makes Sonic a good crossover?

@kraken yeah I'm at a loss too. Transformers would be a better fit, and even that would be tricky.

@kraken TBH it's the characters and both franchises types of sci-fi and fantasy blend (though with Sonic the fantasy element is debatable)

Hero (Sonic/Adam)

Little buddy and tech genius (Tails/ Orko and Duncan)

Female main cast protagonist with crush on hero (Amy/Teela)

Strong guy who's sometimes simple minded who was an enemy at first (Knuckles/ Both Ram-man and Fisto)

Eggman and Skeletor, need I say more?

Metal Sonic and FAKER. Robotic doppelgängers who I feel like the scenarios write themselves somehow. Also I emphasize Faker because whenever I think of the character I think of an iconic exchange among fans between Sonic and Shadow in Sonic Adventure 2.

As for Shadow, I made a topic/forum whatever we call these I'm new to these types of sites that no one has commented on about how he may share some slight similarities with '18 Hordak despite Shadow being an anti-hero.

Despite this I would get the real feeling a traditional pure evil Hordak would really try to convince The Ultimate Lifeform to join the Horde.

Another. Blaze/She-Ra. Royal female counterparts of main hero. For those who aren't in the know Blaze is rather Sonic's other dimension counterpart.

Also the Master Emerald and Tikal/ Castle Grayskull and Sorceress

See the potential now? Even if you're not a Sonic fan at least google these guys to get the picture.

@slycooperastroboy51 they are similar on the most basic level. You can compare any two properties from the 80's and 90's in the same way.

@slycooperastroboy51 That is an interesting idea.

I'm not holding out much hope for more vehicles in this line. They keep teasing stuff on artwork, but it's been a good long while since anything was revealed. What was the the most recent vehicle, the Collector? 40 years of waiting and they did an awful job on it, so fans were disappointed, so they've been quiet since. They probably blame us...

I wasn't disappointed with the Collector. What makes you think fans were disappointed with the Collector?

@smitty-81 BBTS just added CC

I was hoping BBTS would restock some figures that have been sold out for a while. For a long time I only used the site for Transformers and they did restocking of sometimes hard to find and thus higher than retail ebay prices sometimes. Would love to have Roboto, Spikor and CC Skeletor MIB unpunched. I collect and keep the figure cardbacks and usually don't care whether they're punched or unpunched with the peg hole but getting a figure in basically brand new right off the truck packaging feels a bit more special. Oh well. To eBay I go. 

@smitty-81 You do have a good point, but a majority of franchise crossovers have characters with the same archetype interacting and some can be fun. Also same on basic level?

One is a toy/cartoon franchise about a jacked and strong as hell hero and his magic sword with many weird allies fighting a skeleton guy and his posse for territory of a castle with a ton of secrets.

The other is a video game franchise about a blue hedgehog running fast through green hills and factories to constantly stop an evil fat man from world domination.

Honestly what you said was not wrong but not right either. Sonic has a humongous fanbase and I'm sure this would totally bring a lot more MOTU brand awareness like with Turtles and Stranger Things (or at least that's I'm assuming why there's been a good number of crossovers lately?)

K what you said "Same on basic level" does apply absolutely to the premises of Filmation She-Ra and the much beloved Sonic SATam (Saturday morning)

Look y'all a comic or even animation of Shadow the Hedgehog, The Ultimate Lifeform going up against the entire Horde army and then a 1-on-1 with Hordak would be the coolest S**t ever 😭    that should sell people alone

@slycooperastroboy51 The comparisons and correlations you listed for each major character in their respective properties are just popular fiction tropes. Almost any media, with even a passing resemblance, will have characters who fit these roles.

With that said, the one thing that makes this conversation interesting is that Negator once trapped He-Man and Rammy in video game that he created. Using this premise, I suppose it would be possible for Negator to "enter" the world of Sonic and somehow combine this reality with Eternia's.

However, as much as I'd love to see the Blue Blur leave chili-dog stains on Randor's royal carpets, I just don't see this happening outside of some very fantastical fan fic.

Now... if you were to tell me that MOTU 2021 and Sonic Prime were going to have a crossover, that I could believe. Both are Netflix animation products, both have similar CGI animation styles, both appeal to modern audiences, and both deal with similar themes.

@ornclown Yeah good argument. 😑 

At the very least in future MOTU media Adam and Faker should have a moment like this iconic scene

"So now we can get down to the real fight! The last He-Man standing will be the winner."

A MOTU x Sonic crossover is just a terrible, TERRIBLE idea. Just no. Never. My god - just proposing it alone is asinine.

I do really want a Negator CC figure though! C'mon Mattel - he was a memorable villain who appeared in 2 episodes and has never gotten a figure. Make it happen.

Sketch Book Series Sy-Klone revealed - he looks amazing (and very, VERY NA)

They have the descriptions switched between him and the He-Man/Skeletor two pack.

Two pack...

He REALLY looks like the sketch for Vizar.

Was able to pre-order everything except for cartoon Whiplash and Bow and Thundercats Tygra, He-Man and Panthro.
