Spotted Online – Sonic and Erector Launch a Racing Toy

Okay, this looks like a fun way to waste some time. The SEGA Blog has all of the details, but the basics boil down to you watching this video and then rushing off to ToysRUs to buy the Sonic Erector playsets and combining them together to create one giant track. I’m gonna resist this one because it’s exactly the sort of thing that would get played with one or two times and then packed up and forgotten. Not because it isn’t neat, but because there’s always more things to do than time to do them in.

Sonic enthusiasts everywhere will now be able to bring their favorite blue hedgehog and his world to life as they build model play sets and vehicles offered by Erector, a division of Meccano. The brand is set to release three buildable play sets and two buildable vehicles inspired by one of Sega’s most iconic video game characters of all time. Sonic the Hedgehog, who has appeared in more than 65 video games, will jump off the digital screen with the Erector sets that are available now exclusively at Toys ‘R’ Us.
