Rumor: 4 New Sonic the Hedgehog LEGO Sets Are Coming This Year

Details about four potential new Sonic the Hedgehog LEGO sets have been leaked online, which are slated to come out later this summer and fall. Sega and LEGO have partnered previously to create elaborate LEGO sets based on Sonic the Hedgehog, the first of these being released at the beginning of 2022. In addition, 2023 saw five new Sonic LEGO sets launched, which featured Sonic, Tails, and Amy.

Sega and LEGO are keeping up the momentum with brand-new sets for 2024. January saw the release of a LEGO set focused on Shadow the Hedgehog, which had him riding atop his motorbike on a highway. Rouge and Knuckles also got LEGO sets that were released this past month. In this set, the Echidna can be seen battling in a giant mecha suit against the bat, who is flying in a Green Goblin-esque glider vehicle. The next potential LEGO sets based on Sonic the Hedgehog have already been leaked online.

Rumor: Sonic the Hedgehog Could Be Getting a Fall Guys-Like Spin-Off This Year

A prominent Sega leaker says that the Sonic the Hedgehog franchise is getting a spin-off modeled after Fall Guys later this year.

First spotted by Sonic Stadium, these details were shared by Instagram user mtdbricks. This leak included the official designation numbers and names of three Sonic the Hedgehog-themed sets, along with their prices. According to this leak, these sets are known as “Tails’ Adventure Boat,” “Knuckles and the Master Emerald,” and “Super Sonic vs. Egg Drillster,” priced at roughly $60, $50, and $100 respectively, and will be released in Summer 2024.

Following this leak, another Instagram user, 1414falconfan, shared updated details regarding these summer sets, including their piece count. This second leak also gives fans information about a potential 18+ LEGO set (LEGO sets that are complex and designed to be put together by adults), which features 720 pieces. This set doesn’t have many details about it, other than it will be released in October 2024.

Potential 2024 Sonic LEGO Sets

• Tails Adventure Boat – $60, 393 pieces (Summer 2024)
• Knuckles and the Master Emerald Shrine – $50, 325 pieces (Summer 2024)
• Super Sonic vs. Egg Drillster – $100, 590 pieces (Summer 2024)
• Unknown 18+ Set – 720 pieces (October 2024)

The “Super Sonic vs. Drillster” one indicates that LEGO could be producing the first Super Sonic minifig soon, with this set having Sonic in his golden super form fighting against Eggman in a drill-based machine. Based on the name of Knuckles’ set, it will likely be focused on him guarding the Master Emerald and its shrine. This might be a bit strange, as Knuckles’ LEGO set that was released earlier in January already features the Master Emerald itself, along with his battlesuit mech.

Tails’ LEGO set, on the other hand, seems like it will have a boat. Based on the set’s name, “Tails’ Adventure Boat,” it could be based on Tails’ solo game on the Sega Game Gear, Tails Adventure, where Tails sailed his own boat, the Sea Fox. For the time being, fans should wait for more official information about these sets to be released and should take this information with a grain of salt.
