First4Figures created this special limited statue to celebrate the 20th Anniversary of Sonic. It has modern Sonic on a checkered/striped Green Hill style base, with the 20th Anniversary seal. He has his hand on a TV/Monitor (like from Sonic 1) which is showing part of a picture of classic Sonic. This is a tribute to classic + modern all in one.
However, the picture in the monitor can differ. One is the Japanese style art, which was mostly given away in Europe. The other shows the modified USA style. The Japan background is abstract (colors/shapes) while the USA one has the checkered loop.
There have been made a 1000 of these in total. 900 of the Japanese background and 100 of the US one. There were giveaways of these on multiple websites. Sega of Europe has given them mostly to VIPs and Journalists, if the same happened with the American statues remains unknown.

Here are photos taken by First4Figures, at First 4 Figures assembly area. Take a peek into the warehouse where the finished figures reside, and see how they are assembled. A clear 'screen' goes over the TV face, and each figure is set onto the base.
