    Now here's something uncommon...and unusual.This is a Talking Sonic plush from & for China. However, he is interesting to see for several reasons. First off is the construction of the head is somewhat unusual as compared to other dolls (see the seams). Then, the tag is for 1991, but it…

Tails figure is no clone of the normal 3-inch line. He has goggles, special gloves and 'Riders style' shoes. And he ofcourse comes with a Sonic Riders board. He has 12 points of articulation.

 Here is Free Riders Tails, who as you can see is nicely detailed, but pretty close to a regular Tails, since his only real differences are the glove texture & hand pose, & his different sneakers/board riding boots. Like Sonic & Jet, his goggles are removeable
they're not stuck to the figure's head. They did not re pose his tails, which is a little unfortunate, because they are solid, & can give him trouble balancing on his board. The board (as usual for the line)

is nice & detailed. They didn't try to pass off pallet swapping as different boards--everyone's got a unique one, which is great. Look at the joints in the photo to the right. For some reason, he has these little peg shaped things for the joint stops. Why did this start with this figure? Does he feel more sturdy than usual? You can see these while he's in the package.
