First Sonic Item What is this mysterious little item? It isn't super attractive, or even super expensive. It was once thought to be the first physical Sonic the Hedgehog item ever released that wasn't a video game. (but it was proven later on to have been released in 1993) This simple and primitive plastic object came from a Cereal box at the time of the release of the SatAm cartoon series. As you can see, the sculpt is ok, and it shows him on a Skateboard for some reason, although he's never ridden one. This came from a "Limited Edition" version of Cookie Crisp. You could find either a blue one or a gold one inside! Fact by: Juan Martinez
It is shown displayed on a Sonic Story Book, for size reference.
Blue & Gold Sonic Cereal Toys Skatin' Sonic Back Photo
With these very crisp photos you can see that the gold one is somewhat metallic and it's edges are a bit translucent. These were supposed to balance on your cereal bowl edge. Fact and photos by: Edscott.
Cookie Crisp Cereal Sonic Promo Box Here's the special promo box the above toys would have been included in. The starburst says "Sonic the hedgehog figure included inside" and there's a picture of how it is used (balancing on bowl edge) as well as a shot of both the blue and gold ones. Cookie Crook & Cookie Cop appear un-changed however the writing at the bottom may tell you how to use it. Photo discovered by  SonicBoy19
Mario & Sonic Winter Olympic Bag This bag was likely given out when you pre ordered Sonic & Mario Olympic Winter Games from an offline retailer. The bag is a nice quality plastic with a cool shot of both characters that's not cluttered. Discovered by SonicBoy19
Mario & Sonic Winter Games Bonus Stylus Set The game Mario & Sonic At The Olympic Winter Games was released in 2009 for the Wii and the DS. If you pre ordered the DS version, you could get these free styluses to use with it. (Much like the ones for Sonic RPG) Here however, you get only 2, one for Sonic and one for Mario, each with their circular symbol from the game as a decoration on the 'pen'. But how easy are they to hold? Photo discovered by Sonic Boy 19
Sonic DS Case Close Up Sonic & Shadow DS Skins DS Accessories Sonic theme Pack Could these finally be some LEGITIMATE Sonic DS Accessories? With the flood of annoying low quality bootleg ones always on the market, these could be a refreshing change. You can see "Sega" logos on each piece, as well as a mfr. logo (BigBen) on the set box. The set may or may not come with the skins at right.
The box set above is supposed to include DS case, themed game cases, earbuds, screen cleaner...and possibly something else. It appears BigBen got a Sonic license, and plans to sell these at retail shops such as EB Games and GameStops in 2010. Further info/pricing/availability pending anyone getting one.

Sonic Bobble Head Wacky Wobbler This is the Wacky Wobbler Sonic Bobble Head by FunKo, and, conveniently, its retail box. Certainly, it is the first Sonic bobble-head. However, you'll notice it's also a bit of a mix-up. The box has very classic art on it, with 2 classic stock Sonics, the old checker design, and a ring, plus the old style logo. However, the toy itself is modern, with longer legs and green eyes. (the neck can't be taken into account, as it IS a bobblehead) It's supposed to resemble the classic art at the bottom, but it doesn't. The base even goes so far as to look Sonic 1 style, with the grass and checkering. Where is this available? How much does it cost? Write in if you know the answers.

www.treasureseekersgifts.com (9.67 & ships free in the USA) and
www.amazon.com (12.99) which should be regular retail for it.
Sonic Chronicles DS Skin MIB pic
This Chronicles themed DS skin is official, and could be found at Game Stop stores around the time of the release of the game. As you can see here, it's 9.99 regular retail. The main art used is from the box art itself, which has Sonic & Shade on the clouded/night background. The interior just seems 'dark blue' but is likely to have some type of pattern or logo on it and not be plain. Photographed & owned by: Calistine
