If you have been following the work of Goran Sadojevich, you know that he is deeply into making art in the guise of classic gaming figures. They are exceptionally cool, exceptionally well-crafted and tend to follow with an exceptionally expensive price tag.

His pending release is no different. Metal Sonic comes on a Stardust Speedway inspired base, symbolizing his lust for acceleration. His eyes, chest and back engine all light up, making him appear as evil as he is cool. The base also features a lighting system that fades after the figurine is turned off.  The base alternates between flashing lights and a continuous one to keep the attention always on Metal Sonic, just how he would prefer. He was, after all, the superior Sonic. Just ask him.

Metal Sonic is hand-crafted and comes with a Certificate of Authenticity that will match the code on the hand-numbered base. He is the third in the classic Sonic the Hedgehog Statues series available at First4Figures. This statue retails for about $175. Other statues include a 12 inch Sonic and Super Sonic. There is also a collection of six mini-figurines available, which includes many of the great classic characters from all of Sega’s Sonic games, including Amy, Tails and Knuckles.

Read more about the pending release here, or head to First4Figures to order for yourself. Preordering began December 28th. Numbers are limited.
