    This is the "Sonic & Knuckles Le Guide Ultime" (Ulitmate Guide, probably) made by Cyril Direct. It's probably just a regular game guide (like all those Brady Games ones that get made) but the cover sure is odd. Look at stock art copy...sorta Knuckles with his super small fists. He's…

Wall hanging Sonic Clock

An unusual, but fun wall hanging clock!
This is a clock for Sonic 2, which hangs on your wall & is battery operated. The clock-works are in a plastic box behind it & the hands stick through a hole in the center. The entire rest of it is made of cardboard, including the fun pendulum underneath. Certainly, a cardboard clock would be light-weight to hang and to ship but...everything is exposed to damage or problems, including the hands. Is a fragile clock like that really best for a kids' room?
The clock is interesting for the era as well. It uses Eggman in the Egg o Matic art (not Robotnick) as well as Japanese stock art for profile-running Tails & the Japan-mostly art for 'peace sign/2 sign' Sonic in the Sonic 2 logo at the top. It's possible the clock was also released in Japan, looking just like this. (And that would make sense as well) The edges are checkered, and without numbers. The middle just has a blue sky/clouds theme & the Sega logo. The dangling Eggman is on a chain of gold rings. It's a fun idea to have him down there 'flying' back and forth as the time is kept. The whole thing is a fun presentation with nice thought to the design.
