    Toy Island Sonic found in Japan
    Here is a MIB Toy Island first 5 (or really 6-ish) inch figure line Sonic. As you can see, these were the "not very good faces" ones. He's in the 2nd package (Sonic X theme instead of Sonic Adventure 1) which gives an idea of the release time-frame. The words…

Purple Sonic Walkman

Tags: Walkman United Kingdom 1994

This oddly purple walkman-like tape player goes with the "Sonic Sound Zone" cassette tape box seen on another UK items page. Why it is hot green AND purple though...still, this was supposedly a terrible item all around. Not only did it clash, but it never even had a rewind button! (see 3 buttons only) Which, even at the time was quite terrible.
The magazine which took the photo of it didn't regard it well, as it was big and klunky. It was also 15.99 pound, making it around thirty dollars, but it did come with a (very boring) free cap. The cap was all black with only the Sonic the Hedgehog logo embroidered onto it. Still, 15.99 for a barely-working walkman and a dull hat...not the best deal in 1994.
