    1992 HWA Hedgehog Fleece shirt
    A Fleece Shirt from 1992. It looks pretty quality, and says HWA Hedgehog With Attitude. (TY Juni) I don't know if this was available at the actual Sega World store. Someone was just selling this at some point waaay long ago, and I got the photo. This was also available…

This is just an advertisement, but it had important information.
It pre-confirmed the loss of Toys R Us' exclusive on Jazwares in 2010. It was thought of as good news because TRU has a bad reputation for busting up boxes when you order online, and a very 'big-retail' attitude when calling the store for figure availability. (ie they like to ignore customers, don't know their own merchandise, and are under-staffed more often than not) MORE Sonic figure availability is always better.
However, the loss of the exclusive didn't really mean lots of major retail stores getting the figures as well. Nothing much really happened with the exclusivity loss.

Not confirmed but suspected:
Is that 5 in. Sonic with new 5 in Knuckles & Tails? Are they a mix of 5 in and 3.75 in figures? You'll notice the Sonic has his hand OPEN (small Sonic has 2 fists) so it cannot be the same small one. Jazwares has been known to use 'stand in' art in the past so really the poster is not much an indication of anything other than TRU losing the exclusive. This appeared in October 2009 issue of "THE TOY BOOK" which is a publication for retailers/distributors only. Discovered by GolfGuy801
