Nostalgic feeling when it comes to this pixel pal. The design and color is really nice especially when it lights up. The pose sonic is in and color chosen for this pixel pals made my mind to purchase and add it to my shelf. Overall would recommend it to sonic fan or even if you are not a sonic fan. It looks great from looking at far or upclose.

This is my fourth Pixel Pal. The others being Mega Man, Link, and SMB1 Mario. I wanted one to represent Sega and nothing does it like Sonic. One thing that stands out about this one is it's larger than the others. Height wise it's about 5 1/2" while my others are all 4 3/4". It also came with a slip advertising a new USB connection (separate purchase) to power them instead of 2 AAA batteries. Great idea! Now I need them to make one for Gunstar Heroes! And how about Crash Bandicoot?!?!

The Pixel Pals are all really cool, but this Sonic light is one of my favorites. It matches the Genesis hero's pixelized art, and has his classic sassy pose. Some of the others are based on Mega Man styled art, but this one really stands out. Gotta go fast!

Great addition to my Pixel Pal Collection. Sonic envokes a nostalgic feeling from my childhood. Sonic’s pose is classic & the colors are great whether it’s lit up or not.

As a fan of retro gaming, I really like the pixel art of these. They look nice on a shelf and light up nicely. This one is the the classic 8-bit Sonic which was a staple of my childhood in the late 80's. The only reason it doesn't get 5 stars is because it takes batteries. I would have preferred a rechargeable battery inside or an ac adapter included. Apparently these do have an AC adapter available but they must be purchased separately. I ended up buying rechargeable batteries for these. Other than that they look great.

Looks awesome lit up but still great when not turned on. When I saw this in-store, I didn't think it was a clear representation of Sonic. Once I got him out of the box, I saw the full figure and fell in love. Pixel Pals are battery-operated, but you can purchase a USB adapter for $7.99 (overpriced) on their website.

This is really cool looking with the lights off - the LEDs are quite bright but it does require AAA batteries and there is no place for an AC adapter unfortunately. I'd be using these much more if I could plug it in.

This is a pretty cool little item. I wish that it could be plugged in, instead of run off of batteries.

Buy this for your Switch and connect a usb power to this and not only is it brighter but you do not waste batteries, perfect for the Nintendo Switch.

My son loves Sonic the hedgehog and I bought this item to add to his Easter basket without even knowing that it was a light. My Son loves it and uses it as a night light sometimes as he can place it anywhere in his room.
