Another unnanounced figure from Jakks Pacific in 2021.
This is "Gold Medal Sonic Bendy Figure".
The figure is in a larger than normal box, to display the 2 accessories he comes with. There's a bendy gold medal that he can hold in his hand, and a bendable /snap-on jersey for him to wear. The jersey has a picture of chaos emeralds on it and says "GHZ 2020". The box elevates the figure on a yellow cardboard stand like a winner podium so it will display well.
This is obviously a 'sports ball Sonic', but they reworked him into 'gold medal winning' because the Olympics were cancelled by the pandemic. WILL the olympic/sport bendies even GET released? Nobody has ever reported finding one in a store so the answer may be 'no', instead this guy as the only one. Either that or they'll be warehoused until the actual Olympic Games can happen because the year won't matter/they weren't dated anyway. This guy coming out in the meantime is interesting to see though. He's seen here at a Books a Million, but will likely turn up in Target and maybe Gamestop too. It's a good figure to get if you missed Sonic on the original bendy waves.
