Origin and background of the character
Introduced by SEGA in 1991 to rival the video game giants of the time, Sonic the Hedgehog has become a global pop culture icon. This anthropomorphic blue hedgehog possesses phenomenal supersonic speed, which he uses to thwart the Machiavellian schemes of Dr Eggman (Robotnik) and save innocent animals. During his frantic races through the legendary Green Hill Zone, he collects golden rings,which are essential for protecting him from damage and racing through the levels at breakneck speed. This Bitty Pop! Arcade edition pays a vibrant tribute to the golden age of platform games by placing Sonic, ring in hand, right at the heart of a miniature arcade cabinet, evoking the atmosphere of vintage arcades and the legendary early days of SEGA’s mascot.
