    The full line of regular figures, as seen at a toy show. You can see from here even that there's something wrong with Knuckles' head. The snowboard Sonic has, is a prototype. It never had the black areas on the final release. Note: 2 sizes of rings. The rings they…

This is called the "Cool Sonic Roll" tee at Hot Topic in 2021.
But should it be electronic-Sonic, or circuit-Sonic instead? What's odd about it is that it uses a strange off-model 'stylistic' Sonic for the art. What's he doing with his fingers? It looks like maybe metal-horns (heavy metal fans) because the fingers aren't far enough apart for surfing/hang-ten? Then, the ears have the detail deleted, and all the spikes on his head are changed to triangles...which makes the lone-normal back-spike look strange. Adding black/white sunglasses also helps to kind of obfuscate the Sonic design here.
The logo is done in a circuit font, and the slogan next to him is "This is how I roll". The other side has 91 and his name spelled out in Japanese...but usually it's not turned sideways in exactly that way. The rectangle/background has rings, 4-point-stars and emerald-outlines scattered around. This one is a bit of an odd bird. It should be 20 dollars in store and online.
