Summary
There’s now less than two weeks to go untilSonic the Hedgehog 3hits cinemas, bringing the curtain down on what has been a resurgent year for Shadow the Hedgehog. There’s more than just Shadow’s cinematic debut still to come, though. Build-A-Bear has added a Shadow the Hedgehog plush to its Sonic collection, and it’s available right now.
There are two versions of Shadow’s Build-A-Bear plush available and which one you go for depends on what you want from it and how much you’re willing to spend.The standard version is $34and you can choose for it to arrive stuffed and ready to play with, or unstuffed so that you can take your Shadow into a nearby Build-A-Bear store and stuff it yourself.
If you take it into a Build-A-Bear store to get it stuffed, you will presumably be able to add a voice chip so that the plush speaks when you squeeze it. If you go for the more expensive version of Shadow, the chip will be in there already, loaded with four phrases from the upcoming movie. The pricier Shadow plush also comes with a Master Emerald accessory, further confirming that the powerful item is not as out of reach as Sonic intended it to be at the end of Sonic 2.
Shadow’s four-in-one voice chipcan be bought separately for $8which technically means you can put it inside any of Build-A-Bear’s plushes. Upset your nephews and nieces this Christmas by giving them a Pikachu that says “This ends now” in Keanu Reeves' voice when you hug it.
Build-A-Bear Now Has A Shadow Plush Ready For His Big Screen Debut
They’re A Colorful Bunch
Joining Shadow at Build-A-Bear is the Blue Blur himself, and Tails who is an online exclusive. Both Sonic and Tails also have cheaper and more expensive options just like Shadow, both of which also include four-in-one voice chips.Tails' plush doesn’t appear to include an accessory, so even the more expensive option is slightly cheaper than Shadow and Sonic’s, whileSonic’s is clutching a shiny gold ring. Clearly no one told Build-A-Bear thatcharacters in the Sonic universe technically don’t know rings exist, although I guess Sonic uses them as portals in the movies so what do I know?
Build-A-Bear Sonic 3 Shadow Plush
Build-a-Bear has added a Shadow the Hedgehog plush to its Sonic collection. Created to celebrate the release of Sonic the Hedgehog 3, the Shadow bundle comes with a Master Emerald accessory and a voice chip with four lines from the third movie.
One of the things that makes Build-A-Bear plushes unique from others are the clothes and accessories you can buy to dress them in. Sonic, Shadow, and Tails have a few things they can wear, includingthe leading hedgehog’s shoesthat are a part of the Sonic bundle or can be bought separately. There’s alsoa blue Sonic 3 t-shirtthat’s sold separately for $8.50.
