Here are Jazwares first 3 efforts at Sonic plush making. Their first run has Sonic, Shadow, and Werehog all at 7 inch scale. Each one is made of fuzzy fabric and has embroidered edges to their eyes. Shoe details such as Shadow's glide-emitter holes and Werehog's 'spikes' are drawn on. With all 3 dolls, details were not neglected, such as Shadow's glove/sock cuffs, Werehog fangs, Sonic Shoe buckles and the dingyness of the Werehog's shoes.
However...The Werehog is clearly their best effort here. Sonic & Shadow suffer from super thick arms, wrinkly distorted little hands, flat large noses, and somewhat 'off' expressions. Shadow especially suffers due to his odd eye construction and distorted looking spikes. These dolls can't be written off as 'too small' because other vintage dolls did a better job of detailing at the same scale. These should be available in the fall of 2009 at Toys R Us in the USA starting with the Werehog. All dolls are $8.99 each.

With these back photos, you can see the werehog uses fabric-paint (semi glossy) to make the different color at the ends of his spikes. Shadow/Werehog tail and back spikes are flat pieces of the body fabric. Side view is provided of his head as it shows that...it does leave some to be desired. The 'feel' of all of these plushes is very soft. The fabric has many tiny silky hairs, and is the same on all 3. If only their faces were better, this would be a solid little plush line, as they're construction and fabric variety is good. The price isn't so hot, at nearly 10 dollars (with tax) for such little things that don't have the best design going for them.
