Sonic Kit officially coming 3/25
Archive: 99 posts
| Well we all knew it was coming, and while the debate on if the costumes themselves were made well or not rages on, regardless to quote LBP.com "a costume kit that needs no introduction" is finally coming, What has got me excited is the pack also contains themed stickers from the Original Sega Genesis hit. http://www.littlebigplanet.com/images/assets/shared/dlc/imagery/sonic_stickers.jpg There was even a little trailer and in it is a level from a creator who too needs no introduction here on LBPC. Well I couldn't embed the video off of LBP.com but I found someone who put it on youtube, I hope the quality is low just because it was recently uploaded. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Byv_35Lmvho Source: http://www.littlebigplanet.com/en-us/news/article/littlebigstore_sonic_costume_kit/ | 2010-03-19 21:24:00 Author: JKthree  Posts: 1125 |
| Cool: The stickers are way better than the costumes. | 2010-03-19 21:28:00 Author: KQuinn94Z  Posts: 1758 |
| Told you there were stickers :d | 2010-03-19 21:32:00 Author: FuzzballFox  Posts: 217 |
| The sticker more than make up for the costumes, but how are they Sonic Unleashed Themed? | 2010-03-19 21:34:00 Author: Astrosimi  Posts: 2046 |
| nice stickers ill get this asap | 2010-03-19 21:37:00 Author: WESFUN  Posts: 1336 |
the stickers makes this worth buying  | 2010-03-19 21:41:00 Author: Alec  Posts: 3871 |
| they look a little cleaner. the skin and headdress actually match colours now. i think with the cartoon eyes they will look great. | 2010-03-19 21:43:00 Author: trip090  Posts: 1562 |
| they look a little cleaner. the skin and headdress actually match colours now. i think with the cartoon eyes they will look great. They're exactly the same as before... It's just that we no longer have crappy images to go off that made them look crap... even though they still do. | 2010-03-19 21:56:00 Author: mnimmo1986  Posts: 552 |
| i'm only trying to stay positive. i always thought a sonic pack would be epic but i'm a little disappointed. the stickers look cool though... | 2010-03-19 22:00:00 Author: trip090 Posts: 1562 |
| I love how they've used a community level for the trailer! | 2010-03-19 22:08:00 Author: Leather-Monkey  Posts: 2266 |
| I dunno guys... I'm hesitant about the stickers. When am I ever going to need super-pixelated details? :/ | 2010-03-19 22:13:00 Author: comphermc  Posts: 5338 |
I'm very happy to see that they used Kiminski's level for that trailer as well, but it doesn't make me like the costumes anymore.  Although, this is the first costume pack I've been disappointed with, so I guess that's something. | 2010-03-19 22:35:00 Author: xkappax  Posts: 2569 |
| Some of the stickers are good but still.. Pretty useless pack, though I know some genius will make em epic. | 2010-03-19 22:53:00 Author: Testudini  Posts: 3262 |
| Some of the stickers are good but still.. Pretty useless pack, though I know some genius will make em epic. You said it, some genius will make epic levels with it and that genius is... not me | 2010-03-19 23:17:00 Author: Alec Posts: 3871 |
| I buy all of the costume packs. Not because I think that they're cool (which most of them actually are, anyway) but I buy them incase of some genius who thinks of a custom costume that uses them. | 2010-03-19 23:30:00 Author: littlebigmeteor  Posts: 396 |
| I like the stickers but I'm going to skip this one. I'm not into costumes that much and the whole kit is $4.99. On another note, congrats Kiminski for having your level shown in that video. I've played the level before and it was very good. | 2010-03-19 23:46:00 Author: Silverpanther  Posts: 156 |
| any one else noticed they used the sonic level that im sure most of you have played? I bet the creator is proud :-P | 2010-03-19 23:48:00 Author: Delirium  Posts: 349 |
| lol thank goodness im tired of those cheap too blue lion-haired sonic impersonators running around in LBP | 2010-03-20 00:37:00 Author: wolverine_2008  Posts: 304 |
Once again the concept art is better than the finals.  http://www.littlebigplanet.com/images/assets/shared/concept_art/sonic.jpg Interesting that they used a community level to showcase the costumes. That could be a whole topic on its own. Probably a good thing though. | 2010-03-20 00:39:00 Author: midnight_heist  Posts: 2513 |
| the stickers look cool though! pixels rule! XD | 2010-03-20 00:48:00 Author: wolverine_2008 Posts: 304 |
| that concept art is so cool... yay kiminski! | 2010-03-20 04:06:00 Author: monstahr  Posts: 1361 |
| I hate the fact that I'm a sonic fan... It means that I am obliged to get this... and wear them... and make a sonic level... while holding my stuffed sonic... while listening to various sonic theme songs... | 2010-03-20 05:30:00 Author: shebhnt  Posts: 414 |
| i'll get it. I try to buy any packs w/ new stickers. | 2010-03-20 06:04:00 Author: mr_b_ram  Posts: 40 |
| Even though the costumes look ugly it'll be interesting to see the sonic levels people make. | 2010-03-20 11:56:00 Author: Doopz  Posts: 5592 |
| I have my doubts, anyone think it's suspicious that it's so close to april fools? | 2010-03-20 13:19:00 Author: Psibat  Posts: 27 |
| I have my doubts, anyone think it's suspicious that it's so close to april fools? Oh yeah lol, didn't notice that. I can see it now, you spend your hard earned money start the game all exited to see the stickers and costumes only to see a message pop up saying: "April fools! There never was sonic pack, we just wanted to steal your money!  " | 2010-03-20 14:26:00 Author: Doopz Posts: 5592 |

There never was sonic pack, we just wanted to steal your money! "Oh yeah, lets play April fools a week early!!! If you think like that you may as well say that the April 1st update isn't going to happen simply because it falls on April Fools day, and that days update is just a big joke. Don't be so narrow sighted. Companies have no reason to play the stupid game of Aprils Fools, it only backfires on them at the end of the day. If there isn't an option to pre-order it, I stand by my case. So? What's your point. You can't and never have been able to pre-order DLC. | 2010-03-20 16:19:00 Author: mnimmo1986 Posts: 552 |
| The front view pics don't do justice to Sonic and Were-sonic http://www.littlebigplanet.com/images/assets/shared/dlc/imagery/Sonic2.jpg http://www.littlebigplanet.com/images/assets/shared/dlc/imagery/Werehog2.jpg a little better | 2010-03-20 17:25:00 Author: monstahr Posts: 1361 |
| So? What's your point. You can't and never have been able to pre-order DLC. Doopz said it as if people had already purchased it. I was saying they could say it's coming and then not do it. Also calm down. I said I had doubts, it's not as if I was saying "THERE IS NO WAY THIS WILL HAPPEN". I've just seen game companies do this sort of thing before. | 2010-03-20 18:01:00 Author: Psibat Posts: 27 |
| They look alright. It would be awesome if they included some classic Sonic sounds and music too, but whatever. | 2010-03-20 18:25:00 Author: Sack-Jake  Posts: 1153 |
| Wow...the stickers look UGLY... And i don't talk about the costumes... Hurghhhh | 2010-03-20 18:35:00 Author: Takelow  Posts: 1355 |
| Nice but would been better with sound efects like when you pick up a coin. | 2010-03-20 19:28:00 Author: bakscratch  Posts: 258 |

| i'm only buying tails, i want his tails! maybe knuckles :/ but beyond those two, nothing seems too appealing | 2010-03-20 21:47:00 Author: Joshofsouls  Posts: 1569 |
| eggman looks the best. i mean, that mustache... | 2010-03-20 21:57:00 Author: trip090 Posts: 1562 |
| i think they look koo abit weird looking,but i think ill get it and the stickers look awesome too. | 2010-03-20 22:58:00 Author: Mangarocks14  Posts: 262 |
| Some of the stickers seem like they'd be incredibly hard to cut. Especially the ones that are complex shapes and all pixely. | 2010-03-20 23:19:00 Author: qrtda235566 Posts: 3664 |
| Take out Werehog and throw in Blaze. PLEASE. kidding; but still, if we wanted "sonic's alter-ego", they should have just thrown in Shadow | 2010-03-21 01:01:00 Author: JawboneX  Posts: 90 |
| im buying this as i want all the stuff i can get , ill grab this with the ico and whiteknight pack, | 2010-03-21 01:58:00 Author: sorrowthedark  Posts: 125 |
| if we wanted "sonic's alter-ego", they should have just thrown in Shadow I agree, I would have loved to see a shadow costume. | 2010-03-21 08:42:00 Author: shebhnt Posts: 414 |
| Yeah I thought there would have been Shadow. How could they miss out the awesomest sonic character ever? | 2010-03-21 15:55:00 Author: Doopz Posts: 5592 |
| Not entirely convinced on this one. I agree with comphermc that the stickers look ancient and pixelated. But congrats to Kiminski on that shout-out from Sony/Mm !! | 2010-03-21 16:14:00 Author: v0rtex  Posts: 1878 |
| I actually like those stickers. But that's because I want to build a pixelated level or something. | 2010-03-21 18:37:00 Author: warlord_evil  Posts: 4193 |
| I actually like those stickers. Agreed, it's really cool to have pixel-y stickers for once (pixel skull can buuuuurn) | 2010-03-21 20:42:00 Author: JawboneX Posts: 90 |
| I dunno guys... I'm hesitant about the stickers. When am I ever going to need super-pixelated details? :/ How do you ever gonna need like 90% of the stickers in this game for what they are? Those sonic stickers will have some out of the box artistic uses at some point like most stickers of the game (it's stupid but aren't we used to dumb stickers?) | 2010-03-22 00:28:00 Author: RangerZero  Posts: 3901 |
| hmmm not so sure about this pack not overly struck on the characters and im a sonic veteran from back in the day phew showing my age abit there haha, and as for the stickers hmm again id have liked them not to look like 16bit graphics were on hi def these days 16bit looks abit well just not good these days id have loved the stickers to be remade in whatever graphics the ps3 is myself and it would also have been nice to get some materials and objects like the springs you jump on that would be nice 2 but alas im rather dissapointed with this pack epic fail | 2010-03-22 00:28:00 Author: ghostrider135  Posts: 259 |
| I think that the costumes look ok now. The colours are better and Knuckles has actual knuckles on his gloves. Robotnik's moustache does look rather fantastic. I wish they wouldn't add the werehog, that screwed up Unleashed. I might not use the stickers but they might offer inspiration. | 2010-03-22 11:01:00 Author: Arctos13  Posts: 258 |
| This... Isn't really my type. Especially for someone that uses corner edit a lot now. The costumes are cool though, but the stickers... I just don't see a very bright future with them. | 2010-03-22 12:54:00 Author: Tawarf Posts: 457 |

| me too, and then i hovered my mouse over it and saw the file name, and then i was confused again, and then i remembered that those silly english use funny words | 2010-03-22 21:25:00 Author: monstahr Posts: 1361 |
| The stickers in here looks very very good to build a retro Sonic 1 level. Mix the Labyrinth Zone stickers with the Pirates of the Caribbean water and we can start seeing that NIGHTMARE of a zone being recreated. :eek: Seriously, I never completed the zone the proper way; I just used the built-in debug cheat to skip large underwater portions of it. The Scrap Brain Zone Act 3's palette swapped version was worse, too. I'm not too fond of the costumes, but seriously, the werehog costume? I haven't played the game, but I heard reviews about it. | 2010-03-23 17:28:00 Author: Beed28 Posts: 200 |
| Didn't this DLC have to be in the Store today? It hasn't shown there | 2010-03-25 12:49:00 Author: poms  Posts: 383 |
| That's because it's not live yet. Will be there later today, no doubt. | 2010-03-25 13:10:00 Author: Syroc Posts: 3193 |
| Store doesn't update on the hour you know...>_> | 2010-03-25 14:18:00 Author: FuzzballFox Posts: 217 |
| Didn't this DLC have to be in the Store today? The EU store usually updates somewhere between 5pm and 7pm GMT. It's ofter earlier (like 2pm) when it's a re-release of existing content, like the recent Leprechaun costume. | 2010-03-25 16:18:00 Author: Aya042  Posts: 2870 |
| When this is available for download could someone please confirm me if Tails' tails are actually dynamic? I couldn't tell by the trailer...they were moving too doggone fast! | 2010-03-25 16:24:00 Author: GreyMRP Posts: 588 |
| Ye this will be realesaed around 5pm and after GMT so i can't wait to get it lol. | 2010-03-25 16:49:00 Author: lbpholic  Posts: 1304 |

| The EU store usually updates somewhere between 5pm and 7pm GMT. It's ofter earlier (like 2pm) when it's a re-release of existing content, like the recent Leprechaun costume. Okay. It's actually updated already, so the Sonic the Hedgehog Costume Kit is now available at ?4.79. N.B. I'm only referring to the EU store, so those in NA will have to wait a little bit longer. | 2010-03-25 17:10:00 Author: Aya042 Posts: 2870 |

| gah! im so excited! just looked on the little big planet website at the scale of awesome mustaches due to Robotniks great 'tache. | 2010-03-25 17:38:00 Author: trip090 Posts: 1562 |
| Not that I am buying but i just looked at the store and it listed the pack as €9.95 O.O That's more than the level kits and I really don't think it's worth that much! The website lists its as €5.99 so something is wrong! | 2010-03-25 19:44:00 Author: OneEyedBanshee  Posts: 1370 |

The website lists its as ?5.99 so something is wrong! UK ?4.79 / EU ?5.99 / US $5.99 / AUS $ 9.95 / NZD $11.50 $9.95 is the Australian price. If your store has this at any other price then it's the PS Team looking after the store's fault. | 2010-03-25 19:49:00 Author: mnimmo1986 Posts: 552 |
| I'm in Ireland and the price is in euro. I took a pic lol just so I don't seem loony. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v239/Almwitch05/DSC01403.jpg Hopefully they fix this for anyone that actually is excited for this but is afraid to touch it becuase of this mistake. | 2010-03-25 19:56:00 Author: OneEyedBanshee Posts: 1370 |
| Not that I am buying but i just looked at the store and it listed the pack as ?9.95 Sounds like Sony made a mistake in the DLC pricing. Now that's never happened before.  | 2010-03-25 19:57:00 Author: Aya042 Posts: 2870 |

Well that's definitely a mistake. Feel sorry for anyone who jumped the gun and bought that as it is with the price . | 2010-03-25 19:59:00 Author: mnimmo1986 Posts: 552 |
| Yeah I can see some clueless person buying it. I'm fairly new to LBP so any packs I have gotten so far are old and presumably their prices are correct and stable. This is the first truly new pack I've seen on the store. | 2010-03-25 20:17:00 Author: OneEyedBanshee Posts: 1370 |
| Oh I wouldn't worry, they're just trying to scam you for a little extra money . | 2010-03-25 20:52:00 Author: Doopz Posts: 5592 |
I just got it half an hour ago. It was the correct price (5.99€ .I was amazed by the number of stickers. There are tons of them. Mmmh... I never thought about it, but I'm tempted to build a Sonic level now... I was a fan in the 90's lol | 2010-03-25 21:13:00 Author: poms Posts: 383 |
| I don't get it. The stickers are awful. Cool costumes though, lovin that mustache | 2010-03-25 21:24:00 Author: Unknown User  |
| I don't get it. The stickers are awful. Cool costumes though, lovin that mustache :eek: WHAT?!!?!?? It's the other way round for me, awful costumes, cool stickers . | 2010-03-25 21:34:00 Author: Doopz Posts: 5592 |
| The costumes is better than they are in the pictures they showed us I think it's worth buying if you like to make costumes and pixel levels | 2010-03-25 22:39:00 Author: Alec Posts: 3871 |
| there is an epic mustache involved!? COUNT ME IN DAWG!!! | 2010-03-26 00:23:00 Author: poorjack  Posts: 1806 |
| The costumes are finally available in the US store. | 2010-03-26 02:06:00 Author: warlord_evil Posts: 4193 |
| sweet ill buy em prolly. when i get mo money... | 2010-03-26 02:13:00 Author: poorjack Posts: 1806 |
| My Canadian friend says that the price for this pack is $10... every other pack is 6$ for them, error or are they crapping on Canada now? lol EDIT: in game store is listed at 10$ for them, but PSN store has it normal 6$ | 2010-03-26 03:26:00 Author: Stephanie_Ravens  Posts: 188 |
| Just got if for $5.99 a few minutes ago. Here's all I have to say: -Stickers... tons of 'em, but not really desirable (unless you're a Sonic nut). -Costumes... not that great, tbh. All costume parts look the same (besides Robotniks; Kick-donkey moustache ftw ).So, if anything... buy at your own risk. xD | 2010-03-26 06:04:00 Author: Outlaw-Jack  Posts: 5757 |

| just brought the sonic costume. If you add the ape escape eyes to it, it looks a lot better. The hair is awesome and so are the gloves. I recommend at least buying sonic. | 2010-03-26 09:35:00 Author: litled  Posts: 165 |
| No Sonic Music? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GFHvxuuOymo I'm disappoint. | 2010-03-26 10:01:00 Author: Flame Dragon  Posts: 312 |
| I know, I use to love those tunes when i played Sonic on my SEGA. They could of at least added sound effects. They might of made me buy the whole pack. | 2010-03-26 10:05:00 Author: litled Posts: 165 |
| The pack is awesome, I only have a couple of issues with it though... -Werehog nose and Sonic nose are the same...so why give us them both when we buy the whole pack? -Tails headdress could have least been able to be put with hair... just make the ears stick out like Cat ears. -Like Litled said...it would have been even better if they added sound effects! Love the rest of it though...lots of useful costume pieces! :3 | 2010-03-26 13:16:00 Author: FuzzballFox Posts: 217 |
| just bought this. better than i expected! really good. loads of stickers, great costumes. really worth buying. | 2010-03-26 19:50:00 Author: trip090 Posts: 1562 |
| I finally booted up LBP to see how the Sonic Pack looked, and I got to say I'm pretty satisfied, except for one thing. And that is: Dr. Eggman's costume, and I'll show you why... http://www.overtimecomedy.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/06/dr_robotnik.gif See this? It's Dr. Robotnik, and it's always been in its design that his head must considerably smaller than the rest of its body, even defying human proportions. A Dr. Eggman (or Robotnik as we should call him) with a giant head is wrong. Not only that, it makes his moustache look really stupid. I kinda had the same problem with Stay Puft from Ghostbusters, as he is supposed to have a giant marshmellow body with a small, innocent face. And what the hell is wrong with his eyes? I'm sorry, but when you make Werehog look like a pretty good character, something's not working. | 2010-03-26 22:04:00 Author: VincentVendetta  Posts: 111 |
| Dr. Eggman the best one and he always been called Dr. Eggman..... he was called Robotnik in the west only so he always have been named Dr. Eggman | 2010-03-27 00:53:00 Author: jump_button Posts: 1014 |
i want the costumes | 2010-03-27 01:01:00 Author: JOGEFER  Posts: 3 |
| He did finally make the switch to Dr. Eggman in Sonic Adventure for the dreamcast. Like jump_button said, his name was originally Dr. Eggman but when the game was ported to America his name was switched to Dr. Robotnik. The sad thing is that I could go on for a good page telling you all about various aspects of him since I'm such a big sonic nerd. I could tell you how the Sonic comic has explained the change in name. I could tell you a lot of random things about Sonic it turns out... | 2010-03-27 01:20:00 Author: shebhnt Posts: 414 |
| I bought this yesterday and am very satisfied. Might make a Sonic parody level trilogy after I plan out my ten part series. | 2010-03-27 01:41:00 Author: Arctos13 Posts: 258 |
| I may actually buy this pack now! | 2010-03-28 01:52:00 Author: Testudini Posts: 3262 |
| I really like the sonic costume! but because i'm not a sonic fan i didn't buy the stickers, but still, its a nice costume! It looked worse when I 1st saw it! | 2010-03-28 09:37:00 Author: talbot-trembler  Posts: 1114 |
| I would totally buy this if I could get the stickers alone. None of the costumes interest me, aside from Robotnik. I need that mustache. | 2010-03-29 07:42:00 Author: glue  Posts: 46 |
| these stickers are great for cutting out, just so you know. the pixels, when blown up to epic proportions, are easy to cut around. it's like they wanted us to make sonic levels... | 2010-03-29 08:03:00 Author: trip090 Posts: 1562 |

| Totally worth it for the stickers alone I have to agree, they should have added some music and/or sound effects. I even went as far as making a Labyrinth Zone based level. <plug> Labyrinth Zone Climb </plug> Looking forward to seeing any other Sonic-based levels made with this pack. | 2010-03-29 12:17:00 Author: AtheistSeaOtter  Posts: 54 |
| He did finally make the switch to Dr. Eggman in Sonic Adventure for the dreamcast. Like jump_button said, his name was originally Dr. Eggman but when the game was ported to America his name was switched to Dr. Robotnik. The sad thing is that I could go on for a good page telling you all about various aspects of him since I'm such a big sonic nerd. I could tell you how the Sonic comic has explained the change in name. I could tell you a lot of random things about Sonic it turns out... Isn't Robotnik Eggman's grandfather? Oh and I'm totally getting this the next time I see a PSN card. | 2010-04-01 21:30:00 Author: legory  Posts: 39 |
| In my mind he will always be Robotnik, none of this Eggman business. | 2010-04-02 00:25:00 Author: Ayneh  Posts: 2454 |
