Cheerful 1991 Sonic plush

Tags: Plush China 1991

This cheerful looking plush is rather fuzzy. The fabric for each of the colors looks soft, maybe related to the fabric of the USA's Caltoy Sonic doll. Tag is rather non-descript, just saying Segasonic with the copyright & year. This would mean that China had also adopted the Japan 'segasonic' labelling that they had in the earlier years. The glove cuff & sock riding up is a normal thing that could happen (Caltoy did it too) because some companies didn't tack them down with a stitch, though they should have. His ears could use a little placement work, but notice they do have blue borders.

Most note-able are the spikes, which unlike the Caltoy, have them how they actually should be/are accurate and not some flat felt flaps. His head size is good, and the expression is cheerful. Why is one eye different? Because the painted-on white highlight on the plastic part has chipped off with age & wear.
