He’s just a hedgehog who loves adventure! Do your children love LEGO® Sonic The Hedgehog™? Then step this way – you don’t need to collect any Rings to unlock this handy guide to who’s who…

Sonic

This super-speedy blue hedgehog is as beloved for his cool attitude as he is for his record-breaking speed. The fastest video game hero of all time, Sonic’s rebellious attitude means he sprints through life with unmatched confidence – making him the perfect thorn (or quill) in the evil Dr. Eggman’s side.

How old is Sonic?
He’s your quintessential ‘cool teen’ – always has been, always will be.

How fast is Sonic?
The blue blur can run faster than the speed of sound!

Check out the blue blur in the following sets...

Shadow

This dark hedgehog is Sonic’s fiercest rival. You don’t want to mess with Shadow; not only can he match Sonic in speed and abilities, he can also harness the power of the Chaos Emeralds to teleport and stop time. As the Ultimate Lifeform, his temperament can be as spiky as his quills, but he always gets the job done.

How old is Shadow?
While his body is unaging, Shadow was created by Dr. Eggman’s grandfather, Professor Gerald Robotnik, to be the ‘Ultimate Lifeform’ over 50 years ago.

How fast is Shadow?
Shadow’s Air Shoes keep him toe-to-toe with Sonic, and his combat skills are unparalleled.

You’ll find the antihero in these sets...

Tails

Everyone needs a best friend to rely on and Miles ‘Tails’ Prower never lets Sonic down. Calm and collected, he is the one who always looks before Sonic leaps. This super-smart young fox works hard in his workshop to create machines to help his pals crack Dr. Eggman’s evil schemes. Did you know his name is a play on the phrase ‘Miles Per Hour’?

How old is Tails?
While his precocious proclivities might lead one to think otherwise, Tails has just hit his tween years.

How fast is Tails?
Tails can spin his twin tails to fly, allowing him to keep up with Sonic’s super speed… If Sonic gives him a bit of a head start!

Catch Tails working hard in these sets...

Knuckles

The last of the echidnas, Sonic’s friendly rival Knuckles may be “rougher than the rest of them”, but he’s also the steadfast guardian of the Master Emerald. His incredible strength and ability to glide mean he can patrol his home, Angel Island, fearlessly. However, he can be a little naïve and has been fooled by Dr. Eggman in the past.

How old is Knuckles?
Knuckles is a teen, just a little older than Sonic.

How fast is Knuckles?
He’s fast enough not to be left in Sonic’s dust, but is no match for the speedy hedgehog!

Rouge

A cunning spy and treasure hunter, this secretive bat has a penchant for collecting gemstones; the bigger, the better. Rouge isn’t afraid to use her charms to get what she wants, but she’ll always be on hand to help fight the good fight; after all, that’s where the best loot is! Driving Knuckles up the wall (while trying to snatch the Master Emerald) is one of her favorite pastimes, and she’s one of the only people Shadow will willingly team up with.

How old is Rouge?
It’s rude to ask a lady’s age! But if you must know, she’s in her late teens.

How fast is Rouge?
When flying, she’s quick enough to keep up with her frenemy Knuckles.

Rouge is seeking out sparkles in the following sets...

Amy

Have no fear, Amy Rose is here! This pink hedgehog may seem cute, but underneath that sweet exterior lies a fierce determination. While she’ll try her best to find a peaceful solution first, she can end any fight she finds herself in with the help of her trusty Piko Piko Hammer. A true believer in the power of love, she’d do anything for her friends. Aww, cute!

How old is Amy Rose?
While Amy is eager to be more grown-up, she’s only just entering her teens.

How fast is Amy Rose?
Amy Rose does her best to keep up with Sonic; with the help of her Fortune Cards and uncanny intuition, she often manages to be a step ahead!

The pink hedgehog can be found in these sets...

Dr. Eggman

Sonic’s nemesis, eccentric scientist Dr. Eggman, has his sights set on ruling the world. He won’t stop until he’s turned it into his own personal theme park – and no, he won’t let you visit! With a staggering IQ of 300, it takes a lot to outsmart this evil mastermind… Although his lack of forethought often leads to his downfall. Likened to a spoilt child, this mustachioed villain has created an army of robotic minions to do his bidding. Mua-ha-ha!

How old is Dr. Eggman?
He may be getting on in years, but he takes care of himself; you should see his cardio routine! This mad doctor isn’t going anywhere anytime soon.

How fast is Dr. Eggman?
Although surprisingly fast, Dr. Eggman relies on his minions and maniacal mecha to battle Sonic.
