Crossover News 2: More Stuff

This week brings more crossover news.
The Archie + Megaman item has been added to the comics section where it belongs, and the oversight vs Sabrina has been fixed at the same time. However, news from Comic Con doesn't stop there. Remember Wreck it Ralph making headlines with Robotnick?

Apparently Sonic will appear in the movie too!
Some kind of trailer went off at CC, and supposedly Sonic is in there, according to reports. When it can be seen, rest assured a post will appear! And probably an entry on Cameos too. However, there's more then just that! Wreck it Ralph himself is supposed to be in Sonic All Stars Racing too! That's pretty amazing if the news turns out to be the real thing. They're really going all the way with this upcoming movie! Is it a move the fans will appreciate? It seems to be so far...

NKOK getting into the Sonic scene?
It seems so. This company was/is mainly known for making up RC stuff. However, they seem to be getting into the pull back n go as well.  Their upcoming things (seen on WantedGear) include


Pull back and go Sonic racer
Pull back and go Knuckles racer
RC Sonic racer
RC Knuckles racer
RC Shadow racer
RC Jet the hawk free rider racer
RC Sonic free rider racer
Slot car Sonic and Knuckles Race Set

(list by SonicBoy19) which are mostly their usual except the pull back n' go things. Which, become MORE unusual, considering they can be found in Marshalls. (A USA sort of clearance clothing store, which has a small, usually in disarray toy area) But how could that place have it on clearance when the toys have not seemingly even appeared in any REGULAR toy store yet? It's very odd.

This is also half an update as there's more behind the scenes stuff going on, like page re-organizing & other fixes & improvements. It's a good chance for it, as the mail was light this week allowing for some needed fix-upping to be done...which is great!

Hiya, I'm trying to find info about a Sonic/Coca-cola red baseball cap and if it has any value?
I keep being directed to a German site but although it's pictured it gives little info. regarding collectability value if any. I listed it on e-bay but it failed to sell. Any ideas would be appreciated although I'm not a member of this site....THANX!!

The cap should have some value.
Is it the one on this page here?

http://www.sonicgear.org/GermanyPages/GermanItems.html

That particular hat is confirmed to be German, but other hats could exist. I don't know the value of this particular hat, as it's rather uncommon. I'm sort of surprised it didn't sell when you listed it to ebay...unless the start price was quite high as it would attract Coke & Sonic collectors alike.

You don't need to be a member of SonicGear (in fact, there's no way to do so) to ask questions. You can email at any time, to ask things or add photos you have. The contributions of the fans are what makes the site great!

Hiya, thanks for the response. It is the exact one on the German site, embroidered badge. (Apparently there were a few dodgy ones with a patch sewn on? ) I listed it at 99p start and had three bidders but it only reached £4.64, then the winner failed to pay.....his loss I'll just hang on to it if it's a rare item. Thanks again.

Hiya, thanks for the reply. It is the one in the photo, with the embroidered badge and bottle in hand. The e-bay listing reached £4.64 but the winning bidder didn't pay, and there was no reserve? (His loss, if it's rare I might as well hold on to it. )
Thanks again !
