    The game is alot of fun but the statue is cheaply made but I couldn't resist with the Sega base witch really makes it that much better

    16-bit retro gaming nostalgia

    This is the classic throwback longtime fans have been waiting for. Sonic Mania is a retro revival done right. The collector's edition includes a mix of items: the statue with the "Sega" boot-up sound is great; the rest of the items aren't anything spectacular. If you don't care for the statue, just go for the digital download.

    I loved almost everything about this set. The contents are good quality and the packaging is cool. I would like to rate it higher than just 4 stars. But 2 reasons why I don't think it should have 5. Personally I prefer a physical media. I wish it wasn't just a download code packed in the set. Also the speaker that plays the Sega sound. Cool idea but felt lacking to me. If you were gonna go through that trouble, why not play the opening theme from sonic too? Not something I will keep batteries in to use.

    I pre ordered this as a christmas gift last minute not realizing it would be as popular as it was & sold out everywhere. I was expecting a small plastic figure but received so much more! The Sega system the 12 inch Sonic figure is standing on is very true in detail. The recipient was very pleased when opened.

    Love the classic game styling and the statue of sonic. My only complaint is that the game is digital only, no hard copy.

    Sonic Mania has made Sonic Great Again. Noting beats it. It's the best Sonic game in history. The special edition statue shows it's only a $40 statue. It's feel is rubbish but it's nice look at the very least. The "cartridge with the gold ring inside is awesome. The ring would make a great necklace.

    This game is an awesome throwback to the classics, and the collecters items that come with it are spectacular! The cartridge with a ring is a cool little item to sit on your shelf, the collecters Card could be something you put inside your wallet, and the statue could sit on your desk!

    Was hoping for cartridge, but came with digital download. Trinkets are neat but probably not worth it.

    Excellent game that perfectly captures the 90's Sonic feel. Filled with an amazing number of easter eggs and throwbacks to the previous Sonic titles on the Genesis. The statue is also pretty good quality. Easy to take apart and mod as well. :)

    The statue is cool, but it is lightweight plastic and I am afraid it will easily break. I also thought the package had an actual game cartridge in it, but it was just a downloadable code... probably says that somewhere but I didn't see it so I didn't knock it down for that. It would have been nice if the genesis cartridge also housed a physical copy of the game along with the ring..
