Sonic Mania's Collectors Edition is one of the coolest special editions for a game I have ever seen. Brimming with cool collectables for any Sonic fan. The game is one of the best in the series also.

Brings Sonic back to his roots, where he truly belongs. The statue is great quality, and the ring, cartridge, and metal card are great too. This is Sonic at his finest. Do not wait to buy this game.

This is the best Sonic game since the Sega Genesis was released. If you loved Sonic 1, 2, 3, or Knuckles, then this is the game for you. Amazing graphics, gameplay, and lots of great retro nods.

I love boxes. This box is a nice box. The contents of the box are also nice. The game itself is great.
10/10 would go fast again.

The BEST Sonic game

This is hands down the best sonic game in years. It harkens back to the genesis era and is a faithful recreation and it really feels like it belongs with the rest of the genesis games. It's a shame this isn't a physical release (you get a download code) but the goodies that come in this special edition more than make up for it. You get this full sized genesis with sonic statue that says "SEGA" and you get a full sized genesis sonic mania cartridge that has a metal ring inside of it. The metal card is cool but kinda wish they included those cool instruction manuals instead. Regardless if you have this special version GET SONIC MANIA!!

This game is the best classic throwback for sonic that could have been made. Was made perfectly for what they were aiming to accomplish. I can finally enjoy playing sonic again.

It's a pretty nice and really cool collectors edition, but it all feels rather too cheap for the price paid. The figure is really cool and big but feels like a big hollow piece of cheap plastic. Also the metal card is weird. Over love looking at it on my display and the game is fantastic

I love sonic, and this is a great Sonic game. With how bad some Sonic games have been in the past few years, it is great that this game has gone back to the old school style. You can tell that the people working on this game truely love Sonic. If you a sonic fan pick this game up.

Although I have not finished the game yet, I can safely say Sonic Mania is first amazing sonic game we've gotten since Unleashed in my opinion. The visuals are bright and colorful, the music is too amazing for words, the gameplay is fun and fast paced just like the original classics, and is basically perfection for any Sonic fan. And along with game, the statue is great with the classic "SEGA" sound. The game cartridge is very retro looking, the ring inside is surprisingly heavier than expected, and the metallic card is always nice to look at. All I can say is get the game, you'll love it!

This is the best Sonic game in such a long time. It's classic Sonic, the best iteration, not those 3D ones. Get this if your fan, or even if your not a fan.

Got this for my son. He loves it and the game. Too bad no physical release. The statue is cool but production was rushed so the power led on the console doesn't light up. You can open it up and soder a connection to make it work.

It's an amazing game. After the string of bad sonic games, going back to basics was great. The figure included is cool too
