    Game Power Video World sign Germany
    This is a sign for "Video World" the video game retail store. It is in a town called Bockum-Hövel. The sign was done in the early 1990s, but it's still there now because...people want Sonic!It is great to see that video game retailers (not major chain-stores) think so highly of…

 Kohls Rough shirtOwned by Taaron.

As far as is known, this shirt is only available at Kohls' stores in the USA. Usually this store would have an 'also ran' selection of what was at the more popular retailers Sears or Penny's, however this shirt appears to be unique to it. The shirt itself is pretty unique too with a 'rough' look. The background is gray paint over the gray shirt but made to look textured. The colors on Sonic are off-set on purpose bleeding outside the lines and smudging around the art as well for an over-all roughness to the design. This sort of grunge look helps it stand out, though the pose is quite similar to some others. The design on this one is rather large as well, taking up the whole front of the shirt. Being in the 'mens' area of the store, the shirt should fit most everyone! There may be an all-gray varient on it. Available Summer 2009

 Wal mart shirtOwned by Sonikku.

This shirt is likely only available at Wal Mart. This is their 2nd exclusive release shirt. It has Sonic Advance style Sonic in color along with the logo, but the background is full of other characters including Tails, Knuckles (advance 3), Blaze, Shadow, Amy, Silver, and even Storm Albatross and Charmy Bee! (Sonic Channel & Sega Stock Art) Likely found in the 'boys' area, but even if it doesn't fit, it's probably a good idea to collect it anyway due to all the rare characters they threw on there. This shirt uses black shiny gel ink to help outline all of the characters. (Silver is hidden near the logo, and this is the first known piece of merchandise to feature EITHER Storm or Charmy Bee. Since it's Wal Mart, it will likely be inexpensive as well. A good shirt for fans of multiple characters or people who usually don't star on their own shirt like Blaze. 

 Knuckles shirtDiscovered by SuperSkeetosPro

This shirt is unusual to begin with, because it has only Knuckles on it. Shadow has solo'd on several designs but this is a first for modern Knuckles, and it's a good start. He's in a glove-pulling pose with good art and a comic book style font (something new) for his name. The background is a cascade of red lines and shadowing for the figure to help it stand out. While he has appeared on other shirts, it's especially great for Knuckles fans to finally see him solo on one. Might want to pick this one up as it seems to be the first (hopefully!) of it's kind. Location info pending. 

 Kohls Rough shirtDiscovered by SuperSkeetosPro

While being released in 2009, the shirt is clearly drawing upon SA1 era art for it's main design. It has Sonic standing and giving a close-up peace sign to the viewer. They've hidden his shoes behind the logo, and the background consists of concentric rings likely in orangeish tone with 'sparkle lines' in white. The black background makes for an all-right presentation but the shirt itself doesn't do anything to really stand out from among other designs. Good to get this one if you don't already have something like it already, or need another. Available at Hot Topic in all sizes, approx. $19.99
