It’s Sonic the Hedgehog vs Eggman In this 30th Anniversary Robot Battle Set

Following the Sonic the Hedgehog 30th Anniversary action figure that launched earlier this year, Jakks Pacific has opened up pre-orders for the Sonic the Hedgehog 30th Anniversary Giant Eggman Robot Battle Set. A catapult is involved.

If we had you at “catapult”, know that the set allows you to launch Sonic at Dr. Eggman. The giant Eggman robot also features a chest plate that rotates do mimic damage progression, a jetpack with sliding booster flames, launchable hand missiles, and articulated limbs. Pre-orders are live here at Entertainment Earth with a release date set for July. It’s priced at $44.99.
