Sonic is speeding into PAX Australia
With Sonic Superstars out soon, Sega and The Brickman have joined forces to make a Lego Sonic statue, that will make their debut at PAX Australia this weekend.
The team took 103 hours to create the model and used 25,807 LEGO bricks to bring Sonic to life.
“As an old school gamer, I remember playing the original sonic back in the 90s until our hands hurt from playing too much! So having the opportunity to bring one of our favourite video game characters to life with LEGO bricks is awesome and we can’t wait to share it with everyone. We’re all big gamers here at The Brickman, there was no way we would pass up an opportunity to build the iconic Sonic the Hedgehog!”
“Bringing two iconic brands together to create such an eye-catching statue is a fantastic way to celebrate Sonic’s enduring appeal across more than just video games. Brickman has done a fantastic job in bringing Sonic to life in LEGO brick form and we can’t wait for gamers to see it for themselves when they join us at PAX AUS to play Sonic Superstars.”
The game will be playable at the show, both at the Sega booth and the Nintendo booth, with the full game coming out on October 17th for all platforms.
