    SegaSonic & Tails erasers
    These erasers are cute and uncommon. They're clearly vintage with the Segasonic label, and geometric patterned cardboard insert. The erasers are shaped like Sonic & Tails heads facing foreward, and both are well made, as Sonic doesn't look odd (as he sometimes does when depicted from the front)

Here is issue 5 of the Archie Sonic Comic in Finalnd.
This is at least proof that they got up to #5! It came out in 1994. As you can see, the cover is almost exactly the same. It's got the speech bubbles & starburst call-outs all done in Finnish. The Archie stuff is all removed (who localized it, then?) and replaced with the red box, but this time it seems to have a slogan of some sort in it rather than what it had on the first one at the top of the page. The little "funny square" thing Archie did under there is the same, and so is the sound effect "Eeee", but his speech is translated.
The slogan in the red box is "The Fastest Hedgehog". The word "Siili" is "Hedgehog in Finnish. The yellow starburst dot says something like "Sonic gets into a hedgehog pinball machine", while Tails is exclaiming something's ferocious. "Translations for the speech bubbles: Tails is exclaiming ”And the pace is quite wild!” and Rotor is saying: ”Newsstand’s hottest publication guaranteed!”

(Notice how googletrans had Tails' word as 'ferocious' but then an actual person from there translating it has it as 'wild'.)
