Great Eastern just keeps the blankets coming in 2019.
Interestingly, all of these seem to be showing up in the summer time. But still, get ready for chilly weather with some 'fleecy material' Sonic blankets.
This one is called the "Sonic Name Blanket" It is large, at 60 by 46 inches, and features the word "Sonic" spelled forward & backward in big block letters. Punched through the font is a CG very large forward facing Sonic face. It goes off each edge of the blanket & is nicely shaded. However...
This seems to be another of the "it was a good idea but then in execution of it...." items. Because the face is so broken up / obscured by the text it's difficult to read the expression, especially with the odd partially open mouth. Is it happy? Aggressive? The other problem is that it's really gigantic, a 60 inch takes up most of a bed with just. this. expression. Cut into bits by flip flop words.

You could see how it would look good and unique on paper, but when you imagine it into a home/really big and get to looking at it, it breaks down into a bit of oddity.
