Throughout the years, the Sonic The Hedgehog franchise has lead to many bootlegs and knock off products. It’s almost like law that whenever there’s a popular franchise, imitators will always be there to produce knock off products to cash in on it, and the Sonic The Hedgehog series is absolutely no different. Today, we’re diving into the seedy underbelly of Sonic merchandise, bootleg Sonic products. In this video, I cover bootleg Sonic toys and merchandise of all kinds. Be it a figure, a plush, CDs, clothing, or even fake games, I cover many examples here.
