Long before the live-action Sonic the Hedgehog films hit the big screen, Sega's iconic platformer series made its way to television with the 1993 cartoon, Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog. This 65-episode series has recently seen a revival with a physical release in 2022, and currently, you can purchase the complete Adventures of Sonic TV Series on Blu-ray for $37 at Amazon, down from its original price of $60. This marks one of the lowest prices ever for this two-disc set, making it an attractive option for nostalgic Sonic fans.
The Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog Complete TV Series Blu-ray set not only includes all 65 main episodes but also features additional content such as the Sonic Christmas Blast Episode, the pilot episode, and all the 'Sonic Says' PSA bumpers that originally aired with each episode. The content is presented in its original standard definition resolution and 4:3 aspect ratio, preserving the classic feel. Additionally, select episodes include commentary tracks by storyboard artist Milton Knight.
This series is significant as one of the earliest high-profile adaptations of a Sega game, leveraging the character's popularity in North America. The voice cast includes Jaleel White, famous for his role as Urkel in Family Matters, who voices Sonic, along with other familiar characters like Tails (voiced by Russi Taylor) and Dr. Robotnik (voiced by Long John Baldry). While later shows, comics, and movies have expanded Sonic's universe, this 90s series was the first to introduce fans to the Sonic universe beyond the video games.
As anticipation builds for the release of Sonic the Hedgehog 3, you can also pick up the limited-edition steelbook collection featuring the two live-action Sonic movies for just $25, reduced from $48. Other Sonic-themed Blu-rays, such as Sonic Prime Seasons 1 and 2, and the steelbook edition of Paramount's Knuckles series, are also available at discounted prices. For those interested in more Sonic content, Amazon offers deals on various graphic novels, including the extensive IDW series.
