LEGO approves fan-submitted idea of Sonic Mania LEGO set, will be officially released
A new LEGO set featuring Sonic the Hedgehog is on the way. After a fan created a mock-up of a potential Sonic set and sent it to the LEGO Ideas website, the concept became popular, getting the needed 10,000 votes from other fans for LEGO themselves to take notice. They then approached the creator--Viv Grannell--and now Sonic Mania's Green Hill Zone is going to become an official LEGO set. A release timeframe wasn't given, but the product is currently entering development.
The Sonic Mania Green Hill Zone LEGO Ideas® design is the ultimate embodiment of Sonic the Hedgehog's ™ past and future as the franchise celebrates its 30th anniversary this June. Featuring a wide variety of elements inspired by Classic Sonic, the set will provide LEGO collectors and Sonic fans alike a truly supersonic LEGO experience.
