An Extensive Look At Bootleg Sonic The Hedgehog Toys & Merchandise

Throughout the years, the Sonic The Hedgehog franchise has lead to many bootlegs and knock off products. It’s almost like law that whenever there’s a popular franchise, imitators will always be there to produce knock off products to cash in on it, and the Sonic The Hedgehog series is absolutely no different. Today, we’re diving into the seedy underbelly of Sonic merchandise, bootleg Sonic products. In this video, I cover bootleg Sonic toys and merchandise of all kinds. Be it a figure, a plush, CDs, clothing, or even fake games, I cover many examples here.

For years now, people have asked me to cover bootleg merchandise. Whether it be figures, plushes, and I've finally done it! An Extensive Look At Bootleg Sonic The Hedgehog Toys & Merchandise ! Extensive being a pretty fitting term, given this video is nearly 40 minutes long. I knew a topic like this would make for a huge video, and yet there's still so much I didn't cover! With that said, I tried to make this video into an overview of bootleg Sonic merchandise. Bootleg merchandise has always been fascinating to me, and while I do not recommend you support it, it is really interesting to look into. This video took weeks of writing, preparing and editing, but I am beyond happy with the results! This is one of my favorite videos I've done, I was able to cover so much in it! With that said, if you enjoyed this video, consider supporting it! Be it liking the video, subscribing to my channel, following me on Twitter or even supporting me on Patreon! Share this video with all of your bootleg-loving friends that I'm sure you have, or post about it elsewhere. Anything you can do would help me out a ton. Thanks! I hope you all enjoy this video as much as I did making it! Enjoy the video!

The funny thing about the fake Sonic X Silver plush is that Silver probably would have appeared in the anime had it not ended when it did. The final episode of Sonic X aired on April 18, 2005, while Sonic 06 was first announced at E3 during May 18-20, 2005, pretty much exactly one month later. Because of how close they were, the bootleggers who made the Silver plush probably assumed that he DID appear in the anime and bootlegged him accordingly.

I always loved seeing distorted arts in these bootlegs. They go from a hedgehog to a cat or obama harry potter

[@emilio9821]

I swear to god I can find the exact first backpack at a Mexico City mercado any other day. Mexico has a lot of bootleg on basically everything popular. Around the early 2000s, we grew up consuming video games in an increasing market. Nevertheless, formal official merchandise was very scarce and what was found lacked any variety. It was also very expensive. Now, the funny thing is how the market took advantage of the fact that the United States had a wider and easily accessible collection. A lot of families I knew would often visit the States and stock up on official merchandise. They would then distribute those to other family members to sell at malls and plazas, but most importantly, mercados. After a while bootlegging derived from those originals became the norm. From helium balloons to backpacks, to piñatas, figurines, toys, Trading Cards, pencil cases (a surprisingly high amount so that "papelerías" would be stacked with low-quality plastic boxes with prints of Yu-Gi-Oh! and Dora the Explorer together) tazos (I think they are called "pogs"[?]; these little plastic discs found in bags of crisps), the mercado would often showcase an amazing sight of every weird crossover you could ever imagine. It is very cool and a rather striking showcase of the power of popular media and its natural connection to consumption. Kudos for the awesome investigation backing up these.

Recently, for fourth of July, my family went to Orlando to see the fireworks there, and we came across a Disney gift shop. My brother and I actually found these sonic blind bags labeled, "Sonic Generations" and the packaging featured a red sonic and dark sonic. My mom's friends actually bought one of the figures for their son, and the super sonic figure he got actually had a pretty good sculpt. The paint job, however, wasn't as decent. We also found a bunch of other bootlegs there, but yeah, that's my experience with bootleg sonic merch.

A recreation of something from DeviantART, because of course it is. Seriously, I know where that's from. It's from an artist called PlushDragon, from a so-called Rougification caption called (urgh) Sonic the Sugarbabe. The image seems to be remade instead of just a straight copy, and they just coloured the boots red; they're white in the original picture. I'd take the time to mention that not everyone on DA is like this, despite what the people say, and there many nice, polite, decent artists on the site...but it doesn't matter when something like that exists to paint the entire fanbase anyway. Oh, and speaking of stolen art, that tiny cyan hedgehog in the top left shirt is called Monty, I think. He's someone's fan-made nephew of Sonic. And obviously the top one is someone's OC. So that's all stolen too.

I think I can clear up some mystery of the Bootleg Sonic Obama Harry Potter backpack. First, you already stated, Harry Potter is a popular series to make bootleg products of. Second, the reference to Obama, I could only assume that, since Obama was the president when this was most likely made, they were just trying to put a recognizable name on their backpack. Third, Sonic is colored off of Gryffindor, which is Red and Yellow. the 10 on his chest is Harry Potter’s number on his Quidditch Uniform. The green shadow in Sonic’s art might be to go with the roses and simulate grass. Four, the clip art of the Roses, this is most likely just to fill space. Lame I know but that’s just the best I can make. Hope this helps!

One of my favorite things to do regarding custom made stuff is going to this one Lego booth at this place in City of Industry called Frank and sons, they have sonic and all his friends in Lego form, as well as the emeralds, I think it’s pretty neat, they even made a dress mold for Amy and Cream, my nephew loves to see that booth whenever I take him.

Hey! That custom Sonic that you called good at 14:43 is actually mine! I've been obsessed with your videos lately and that's really cool and funny how I managed to see my old custom in one of your videos. I've made a better Sonic since then and hopefully plan on making newer ones as well. But thanks for showing it off and complimenting it here lol.

While this isn't sonic-related, there is a flea market in Los Angeles that has sold a bunch of bootleg plushes, figurines, and even costumes. My father and I bought a bootleg copy of Super Mario Brothers, thinking that we would experience a blast of the past with such a bootleg copy (I was 9 at the time, so I fell for it quick). When we brought it home, it barely worked on my LED TV (it had a HDMI port!) Worse, the selection of titles didn't include a single version of the original Mario game. While I don't have it anymore, I can't quit remembering the disappointment of my father's face when the thing he bought didn't succumb to his expectations. To make this story have a happy ending, I ended up buying him an original NES for his birthday last year, and he couldn't be happier to experience his childhood memories from way back then.

[@Profoundemonium]

The guy who did the Mighty artwork is Olivier Sirois, who also goes by the name Ubergrau. He has recorded a bunch of orchestral versions of old Sonic soundtracks among others.

[@dabluepittoo-aqua4213]

I'd honestly buy a bootleg, as long as it's original. SA1 Shadow & Dark Sonic are good examples! In fact, I'm glad I got my Toadsworth, even if he isn't official.

[@knucklesechidna2124]

You can give them original names and they can be like OCs. :D

[@TJWhiteStar]

There's another option when it comes to products out of China. You have so called 3rd Shift Product runs which are basically when the factory stays open after the 2 normal shifts have finished (Morning & Afternoon) and the Night Shift (3rd) runs all night making Grey products using all the official product molds etc. These are some of the hardest knockoffs to spot as technically there are zero differences just the fact the main company doesn't realise that days 50k of product was actually 75k and the extra 25k went out the back door to the local markets and bootleg sellers.

[@wumpus976]

There’s this line of bootleg NECA TMNT action figures that are so high quality, that people actually believe they’re an example of this.

[@EchoTheSound0202]

They look strangely familier. There is a video by Tails & Sonic Friends called Sonic Plush Pals. And I believe that video also had those bootleg Sonic plushies.
