    This is a rare Japanese item. It is the cover to the "Sonic the Fighters" promotional video VHS tape. The tape may have been a non-wide-release. It was made to promote the arcade game, but could you really sell something like that? It's pretty long too, this is no 10-minute…

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

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.

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.
