Badnik Mechanic how come you didn’t mention that tails and Sonics shoes were swapped?(24:30)
Because I didn't notice it until after I finished the video.
Badnik Mechanic oh okay then
@MaggixJinxieMiseryJinxenTwelveColour12 MJMJTC12 I don't really understand what you're asking for here?
Patmac has evolved.
He really did
@@shihanana He already legendary!
Why are you everywhere
@@MagnetMayham Good question, I really don't know.
Patmac wants to learn a new move.
24:49 Sonic and Tails swap shoes.
WHAT!
And they both have the same tails!
WHAT!!!
Sicko mode ON
Same shoes same tails and. Same height!!
Who’s watching this after 90% of the video has become blurred?
He's done that with a lot of his videos. Is he getting copyrighted showing them or something?
IT CAME FROM THE GREEN HILL ZONE

Retro Sonic Gameplay Videos lol
And Knuckles
Thing looks like a real life Sanic.
it's the -furriest- skin-iest of them all!
It Came From The Green Hill Zone 3D
Shadow did jazz hands....
My life is complete.
OH CMON 😴
Hey look everyone! It's edgy the hedgy
Waddle Reviews XD
Mine too
So, most of the official costumes have been so-so to pretty decent, and then Cream shows up and she's flippin' adorable, and yeah, surprisingly well-made! Shame she only made the one appearance.
Ah yeah, I remember those Olympics TV ads... I always wondered why the Sonic costume was so awkward-looking when the Mario costume was significantly better. "Oh mama mia, you make-a me koo-koo crazy, Sonic!"
I can't understand why they didn't just build off of the Jingle All The Way costume
my reaction to the second tails costume.
CHUBBY TAILS
memes from a pikachu hes FAT!
American Tails
(It's a joke don't take it seriously)
Big tails
Chungus Tails!
Thiccc boi
Right now, somewhere on this planet, there's a place that contains around 40 of those weird sonic costumes.
or maybe they were just burned or somethin who knows.
The best outfit to rob a bank in.
I really hope they burned it
the football costume looks like squidward cosplaying as sonic
OH MY GOD IT DOES
Omg yes 😂
I thought you was joking until I saw it
5:28 sanic.EXE: the costume...
No! It's SANIK !!!
ok wait a sec...
there happy now?
Petar Detlic XD
More like Saniczilla, those spikes look like they belong on a reptile!
10:57 Germany preparing for rearmament 1933, colorized
LOL
Oh no, I can imagine them talking in Ryan Drummond's Sonic voice.
24:32 Why sonic wears tail's shoes and tails wears sonic's?
That's something I like to call "a fuck up"
Larry Productions NO SWEARING LETS KEEP IT CHRISTIANS FBCRVVFUBVYDDTD TFVTDFCFYDVTRDTDYCRETCVFVRVDY
SONIC THE COOLEST probably they wanna trade shoes, not sure how sonic is gonna get tails shoes on, its to small for him
SONIC THE COOLEST I’d just ignore they bug
*PLOT TWIST*
Costume maker here!
Only halfway in but felt like id comment xD
The first tails needs the fur brushed. Like holy heck that looks ratty. Also what's funny is these heads may or may not be attached to helmets. Just from how they'll be big enough to sit on the shoulders. It's really odd.
Also with the stiffness of some. The thing is. That's most likely foam that's been shaped. So it doesn't provide much mobility. And whatever mascot companies made whichever. I'm certain it's either foam core or a hoop system.
Also with the sonics with the uhh. Gaping mouths. Thing is. Performers inside need to breathe. Yeah it looks really dumb sometimes. But this looks like they commissioned a ton of dirt cheap costumes. And they're all made from the same patterns. As for the hands in the mouth. My guess is that they didn't put any mesh into the mouth to hide the person inside. Or they didn't put any mesh at all. But I'm 1000000% sure that is why they're doing that. Because it's easier to do that then to reshoot if someone's face was noticed.
Also wanted to add. The foam and faux fur falls apart over the years. So there's a chance most of these are unwearable now. Hoping that sega has these stored properly as well. Because if they're just throw around, they'll warp and damage even more. Plus they weren't cheap so I'd assume they're kept somewhere safe. And I'm certain patterns have been tossed... But maybe we'll have even better costumes to come!
I make costumes too
what if instead the weirdos inside breathed through the nose instead of the mouth. would that work?
@@Hayjabugga it wouldn't. Since the nose is basically a solid foam piece :c hence why mouths have holes in them. Companies use mesh then paint over it c:
Why do you put periods everywhere
:/
*23:30** sonic turned to someone’s deviantart work......*
I agree with a return for the Werehog costume, even I seriously agree that it is the bestly done Sonic costume! *Now it is a personal favorite* :D
Me too
It's borderline Disney quality.
They really did the werehog justice there
My favorite is the Werehog
Same
Ah, Sega Republic. I miss that place so much. I legit have a framed photo of me and the Sonic Mascot costume that sits right next to my desk. Makes me happy that I live in Dubai but also sad that it got replaced by some shitty VR place.
19:42 You could see sonic holding a crash bandicoot
For the 30th Aniversery SEGA should bring back the first US Classic Sonic and the E3 Modern Sonic
They should also bring back the western Sonic mascot Sega used for visiting cancer hospitals called "Chemo-sabi" Sonic. He has a cool western 10 gallon hat and gun holster.
Dream The Endless the US probably wouldnt use it cuz of the gun and our stupid “gun control” or watever the bullshit is
It will be Sonic Generations all over again!
@@Towniekid077 I thought they wouldn't bring it back because his name is Chemo-sabi as in chemotherapy not the weatern saying of kemosabe. That and it's not real only a bad pun. But if you want to take the weel and swing the metaphorical car in a completely different direction about gun control then let's have at it. I guess that means "Bump Stock Knuckles" won't get a invite either.
They should bring back every costume ever made. And have an Sonic parade.
11:09 Imagine walking outside and seeing all those Sonics
It’s a cult of Sonics
Hooked on Sonics.
23:28 Sonic just flipped us off
:’(
There was also a mascot costume for Sally Acorn along with Sonic from Sega World Sydney
Damn... I forgot about the Sega Worlds.
Are there any images of those?
Oh my goodness. I've just seen it, damn I wish I'd known about them before I uploaded the video.
My favourite part is when the platoon of German costumes get off the aeroplane.
24:32 LOL Sonic and Tails swapped shoes! What good friends they are! X)
well if anyone tries to attack Germany just has to summon the sonic army
Germany prepares to attack Poland- 1934 (I think), colorized
They should have done some sort of campaign against Nintendo where they all just showed up randomly at some Nintendo promotion and surrounded Mario and just...stared.
Badnik Mechanic, I was like “I’m not gonna ask SEGA for that costume
21:20 That might as well be a screenshot of Sonic Unleashed. That's how good the suit is. I wish I could wear it!
1:20 omg I love that Amy mascot.
24:33 Does anyone notice that sonic is wearing tail's shoes and tails is wearing sonic's shoes
(Edit) and tail's nose is green
The costume at 7:15 was the first ever made, it was used at the tokyo toy show 1990.
Even in that time they show a early version of sonic 1 and yes is the missing beta
@@Mr.Player-01 i knew that. There are more pics of it in a magazine. Somewhere. Dont ask, i dont remember.
1:05 Bubsy's mascot costume in the background
WHAT COULD POSSIBLY GO WRONG?!
Bubsy actor in suit: am gonna kill u
@@jagrady13 everything
@@darkbonnie87fan As if the official Bubsy artwork with him smiling wasn't creepy enough...
@@ExtremeWreck imagen the guy in bubsy suit and starts killing kids like william afton
10:57 sonic batlle royale looks great!
16:06 Finally My Favorite Character
Crayola Box
5:23 i really had to go to the bathroom and once i saw this i pissed my shorts no joke I'm not lying okay im going to change now
I love to see one of the official mascots for real. I got to meet an official Mario mascot at a con in Belgium which Charles Martinet (Mario's voice) was attending, and that was pretty cool. So, to meet an official Sonic mascot would be great as well.
2:50 whoa whoa whoa whats mario doing in this sonic video?
Because. Just because
The beginning of the rivalry!
Its a Video Games Characters Video Becuse Theres another Character Around There
it's the beginning of the platformer war...
mario
vs. sonic
vs. coolspot
vs. sparkster
or was there more?
Retro Sonic Gameplay Videos yep, BUBSY was there
sonicgear.org has lots of photos of sonic, tails, amy, rouge, shadow and cream
I wish I can go back in time and meet them
I like Rouge
I came from Green Hill zone 2 :you say good morning I say goodbye
i cant believe they made a werehog costume! it looks so great! i love the werehog design so seeing how well the costume is made pleases me
5:32 imagine seeing someone in that coustume when your outside. What had you done then?
Get my good old shot gun?
Sonic the hedgehog was at Alton Towers! (27:35)
He sure was. Check out my last video.
I did and entire retrospective on his time there.
Yep! And the fact that he was there is what made it better
Check out the consoles
Badnik Mechanic, why didn’t you mention Alton Towers then?
Badnik Mechanic, why didn’t you mention Alton Towers then?
17:10 those were the best costumes. Wish I could have one of those. Pretty cool!
i really liked the wearhog
The Germany one legit looks like Sanic :0
That WereHog costume is great! 😁
0:00 ... Garrulous?
I'm so happy the one at 12:51 is still used; he's so adorable he made me smile looking at the footage, and I am NOT an expressive person.
I had nightmares about that but it’s your opinion
The Werehog costume is my fav it’s so well done and accurate.
Hold on behind sparkster
THERE IS BUBSY!!!!?!?!!!!!
What could possibly go wrong?
The cheeky way he pops his head out of the crowd gets me.
I remember seeing this video when it was unblurred. It's definitely a Great video covering the Sonic costumes. Didn't think it could get blurred out though from insurance, but still does have great audio coverage with the found footage. Also did like "It Comes From The Green Hill Zone" for that one Sonic costume.
24:53 Sonic and Tails wanted to switch shoes in this scene so they did. Seriously WTF?
Hello unused green succ
Thanks for featuring the 2016 video, long story short 2017 was when E3 opened for public for the 1st and after seeing sonic the hedgehog in action, I had to get pictures and videos of the mascot during E3 2017. Also have seen it in action during Sonic 25th Anniversary party. Also ive been up close in person with japan one because that one was used at Gameworks. But I could go on but after seeing this video, had to share some info and experience od seeing the suits in action.
I was really pleased to find your video. It's very hard to find good quality video like it because quite often people tend to jiggle the camera or zoom in on whoever is with Sonic or the statue or whatever they're standing with.
You were quite lucky to capture the mascot actually entertaining. A lot of video like this just don't bother.
Which is a shame because a lot of E3 and gaming convention media just gets lost because nobody bothers to film it.
@@BadnikMechanic thank you, another reason why some don't record video is they can be greeted by disclaimer signs on pictures or videos. Bur before e3 I did message them about videos ans pictures. Ended up getting the go right ahead and have fun. Also aside from dream was to attend E3, but another was to see the official Sonic the hedgehog mascot in action. So it was a moment I wouldn't forget.
Yeah what I mean is.
Normally the stuff they're trying to sell, so games, toys etc (depending on the convention) has a 'no no no please don't film' sign.
But stuff like the outside of the booth, or big displays, mascots, they're ok with. Just people either don't realise or assume no filming means utterly everything.
Which is why a lot of the time when people do film the 'cool stuff' it's kinda poor.
@@BadnikMechanic Overalls amazing video. I will also share was able to track down a few of the suit makers, like 92 us one and seen in a movie was made by 1800 Mascots. The one used in Sonic and Mario might have been made by kcl productons because they made the nintendo ones for the nintendo commercials. The inflatable one which was seen in japan and used for us too was made by costume specialists.
The Boom Sonic Costumes and the most recent modern ones, I'm pretty sure they were made by Rainbow Costumes.
Or at the very least all the performers are from Rainbow.
13:56 Italy? That seems like spanish to me.
No it's Taco
@@reginangel_official I actually looked it up and the magazine is from spain. So it's actually Paella
@@KanaIzumiya Nah fam. I used Wikipedia and it's from France.
Can't you guys tell the language of this magazine it's clearly from spain.
All of you guys are wrong, it’s clearly Spanchilian.
21:48 It will never see the light of day. It's the werehog.
1:17 reminds me of the Sonic Nendoroid
I actually went to Sega Republic when I was younger during summer break!!! I was lucky enough to take a photo with Sonic!! I had no idea Amy and Tails ones were available!! It’s a shame that the Sega Republic got re-themed, RIP Sega Republic (2009-2017)
16:53 Sonic,Tails,Amy...
*& KNUCKLES*
23:40 XD I love how mario just comes up and goes "Oh, you'a so fata now!!"
damn, so sad that you didn't mention Shadow attending a wrestling event
sonicgear.org?
Thanks for making this video Batnik Mechanic 👍🏽
I used to be scared of meet & greets with mascots as a kid, now I LOVE meet & greets! I wish I could’ve been alive during the early 2000’s convention. I would’ve LOVED to take a pic with the gang and especially Cream
You just made me a furry. Thank you
whAt
24:48 Sonic and Tails are wearing the opposite SHOES!!!!!!!!!
4:10 F A T S O N I C
I can proudly say that I have officially worn a Sega made Sonic outfit in the 90's here in Sydney, Australia. It was hot as hell. It was stiff and restricted which made movement very difficult. LOL They later replaced it with a softer material rather than the hardened plastic stomach on the original one. It even had an internal fan!
Was it the Sega world Sydney one?
29:02 it's actually still used
Werehog
And these Four sonic amy knuckles tails
I really love both the Tails and Amy Boom costumes, I really hope in the future Sega reuses them by modifiying them into they’re ordinary Modern Designs
IK!!!!!!!!!!
The guy: what my costume
See,s it
The guy : am I a furry
I'm sad that most of this video got blurred out. Hopefully it gets resolved. Love your video badnik 😄
24:31 In this photo Sonic has Tails’ shoes and vice versa.
Yeah this can happen. Often some cast get their shoes and gloves mixed up.
But if you look again at that photo. There's a few more problems with it.
1: Sonic has Tails' Tails.
2: Tails has another pair of hands under his armpits.
3: Someone has deleted part of Tails nose.
4: Someone has deleted part of the background above Tails head.
Yeah, that must have been a bad day backstage😂
but also OMG SONIC HAS TAILS’ TAILS HOW DID I NOT NOTICE
Iceman World Network Etika don’t be a asshole
@@relaxalexm.f6392 Tf?
i like how the really creepy ones have so little documentation on them. it makes them extra cursed.
8:53 On every side of that picture is a legend...
24:48 did anyone noticed tails has sonic's shoes?
And sonic tails's shoes?
7:15 I believe that suit is actually the first sonic suit since I’ve heard it was at the Tokyo toy show that revealed sonic to the public in 1990
5:24 hes mah fevrot. snok
Hmmm today I will enjoy a 30 minute long informative video documenting the history and usage of all of Sega’s Sonic franchise mascot costumes.
Lmao love your videos
10:32 bruh look at this dude
I like the Rouge and Shadow ones. They look so cool to me.
Yes same they should really modify them
8:24 Comically large spoon: Finally! A worthy opponent! Our battle will be legendary!!!
12:03 i also love the taste of my hand.
26:15 it came from green hill zone 3
What is the music is from
Cyber92Dalek psn - daleks92 don’t know that costume just scarred me LoL
Another well made video from ya Dave! Really impressed to see the various costumes SEGA has made over the years, I didn’t even know Cream had a costume for a time!
Definitely would love to see the Werehog, Shadow and Boom costumes again if you ask me but only time will tell!
Great stuff as always, looking forward to the next one!
I've seen it before, but always assumed it was a fan thing. Turns out it's official!
The More You Know! (TM)
if anyones wondering micheal jackson had a thing in the music of sonic 3 so thats why he was in pictures with sonic.
Hmm 🤔...that opening clip sure seems familiar...I wonder where I’ve seen it before.... But on real note, I’m very honored to have my footage be featured in your video! Always love your work and couldn’t believe this is the first thing you see when starting this video! X3 As always keep up the way past cool content, and I can’t wait to see what upcoming projects you’ll have planned for the channel in the future.
But if for some reason anyone would like to watch the whole Costume Contest footage from Sonic Boom 2013, feel free to check out the link below! ^_^
Costume Contest: ua-cam.com/video/tMxgBoyd4x0/v-deo.html
I did put you in the credits for it!
And I have a few ideas for new stuff, in the research for this found out about some amazingly crazy things which nobody knows about... like the Sonic Adventure 2 stage play!
Sup
21:51-23:22 awwww! this costume is my favorite!
Green Hell Zone*
Gren hell zune
24:32 sonic has tails's tails and shoes
I’m a Tails fan and I love all the Tails costume mascots they used. I’d gladly take a picture with all of them.
22:12 I would say its more of a chibi sonic in a way it seems like that's what they were going for!
Also the mascot at 27:17 there is a video back in 2008 where it was used for the world record attempt for most people cosplaying as video game characters! ua-cam.com/video/tVRkbS7Fqnw/v-deo.html
Can we all just appreciate how good that werehog costume is?
DEM BO, HIS THICC!!!!
The German one was made in Munich at the "Marienplatz", i'm from that town and laughing my ass off :D
Your videos are amazing by the way
The Amy in the thumbnail looks like the Sanei plush
10:28 sonic old design
Well fuc.i guess tails was the very first furry suit
True. So much fur in there.
S A M E.
I know this comment is a joke but furries have existed since the 80s
The sonic suits at 13:00 are actually aliens from another planet...
The werehog and current suit are the best by far, as a fursuit maker, I can only hope to get that good at suit making!
Imagine if the Germany costumes were standing outside your backyard LMAO
I'd love to do this and be a mascot actor for video games. Would be cool
Why is it that I think of Bojack Horseman Everytime I hear the phrase Back in the 90's
Your videos are really good :)
A few weeks ago my friend told me that during the release of Sonic CD, there was a Amy Rose mascot using her classic design, hanging out with a reused Sonic costume. Let me know if this is true or not. Thank you
