Prepare for an exhilarating collaboration between Sonic the Hedgehog and LEGO, with the upcoming release of three brand-new themed sets this August. Following the success of previous Sonic the Hedgehog LEGO sets in 2022 and 2023, the partnership between Sega and LEGO continues to flourish in 2024 with the unveiling of these exciting sets.

Earlier this year, three fresh Sonic the Hedgehog LEGO sets hit the market, showcasing Shadow, Knuckles, and Rouge. These sets delved into the unique characteristics of these characters, like Shadow cruising on a motorcycle and Knuckles engaging in a fierce battle with Rouge the Bat. Building on this momentum, fans can now look forward to three new sets set to launch this summer, with LEGO confirming the release dates.

The official website recently unveiled the new additions to the Sonic the Hedgehog LEGO collection, namely Knuckles and the Master Emerald Shrine, Tails' Adventure Boat, and Super Sonic vs. Egg Drillster. These sets will allow fans to construct various scenarios, such as Knuckles protecting the Master Emerald from an Eggrobo, Sonic and Tails embarking on a boat adventure, and Super Sonic teaming up with Shadow to thwart Dr. Eggman's sinister plans. All three sets are scheduled for release on August 1.

Discover the Sonic the Hedgehog LEGO Sets for Summer:

  • Tails' Adventure Boat ($54.99 USD)
  • Knuckles and the Master Emerald Shrine ($34.99 USD)
  • Super Sonic vs. Egg Drillster ($79.99 USD)

While details of these Sonic LEGO sets were leaked earlier in the year, the leaked information, although mostly accurate in terms of set themes and release dates, had slightly incorrect price points, which turned out to be more budget-friendly. The leak also hinted at an upcoming 18+ LEGO set catered towards adults, promising a more intricate building experience. This set is expected to hit the shelves in October 2024.

Fans have already noticed nostalgic elements within these sets, with LEGO renditions of classic Sonic the Hedgehog adversaries like Eggrobo and the G.U.N. Beetle making appearances. A standout detail that resonated with fans was the inclusion of a portrait featuring Shadow the Hedgehog and Maria, a pivotal character in Shadow's backstory. The portrayal of Maria and Shadow in the same distinctive LEGO style was particularly well-received by fans, adding a special touch to these sets.
