Well this is...interesting. Though it's likely more a case of doofus design, rather than anti Sonic malice. This spiral notebook has a normal front, with big Sonic name in black & white outline, with neo-classic Sonic art. But then look at the back...that's a picture of Sonic literally dieing in a FIRE. That art is a sort of trace-over of the "Sonic has died" sprite, and that's quite def. a pixelated 16 bit fire/flames he's in. Is this a notebook for Sonic fans...or for Sonic haters? Bit of a bummer at 8.99. (And, whatever company is making these is charging only about 90 cents more for a full spiral note, than for a thin cardboard 2 pocket folder...something funny's going on with their pricing in 2013)
