A great concept ruined because Nintendo are Nintendo.
No parent is spending £114 on wooden blocks for their 18 month old. All because they decided to make the characters Amiibo figures.
If you want to make baby toys, then make baby toys
That’s a lot of dudes
My son loves this show - I’ve chosen to believe this is an alternate Spidey who lives in Tiny Stark’s world.
Nah, as far as I know that’s all internal Sonic Team art

Stop scrolling and post two characters who bring you happiness
Kanga Clanga Badnik from Sonic Superstars. He is cute and orange, with a lovable blank eyed expression.
Kanga Clanga Badnik, as it appears in a 2.5D prototype Evening Star worked on after Sonic Mania. It is balancing on its tail and kicking forward with its springy roo feet! Sonic is knocked to the left with significant kinetic force.
A wider shot of Kanga Clanga hopping in pursuit of Sonic in the outback.
It is now the 8th anniversary of Mania so time to dig up some Sonic trivia... This year, it's Kanga Clanga! (aka the Kangus). This lovable robo-roo originally lived in the outback but now entertains us all in Pinball Carnival Zone!
Evening Star is looking to add a new Level Designer to the team! While not a requirement, we are prioritizing prior experience on 3D Platforming and/or 3D Action games.
We are aiming to start the role in November. Find out more on our website:

A massive thank you to @gatestormer.bsky.social for these two beautiful pieces of art (featuring best underratedboi Mighty), and a big congratulations again for completing the London marathon!
Thank you for your help! Glad you like them 🙏
Thanks man ❤️
London Marathon complete! My entire 2025 has been dominated by this goal, so I’m proud to have finally achieved it. Never thought I’d do something like this.
Of course this is all in support of the charity Mind. I am at 93% of my fundraising goal! 2025tcslondonmarathon.enthuse.com/pf/kieran-ga...
London Marathon show done! Bag and bib number in hand. Just 3 days to go…
A unique sketch of Sonic and Shadow that was commissioned, but is now unclaimed and looking for a home! It is drawn on nice A2 230gsm stock.
Asking for an £60 donation to my London Marathon fundraiser in support of Mind. I can ship worldwide, just DM me if you’re interested, thanks :)
And thanks!
That’s right yeah, it was commissioned, and I naively trusted they’d donate when it was done, but they just stopped responding after I finished it 🫠
He’s suddenly developed an interest in Sonic, and I am more than happy to cater for him
You can even see Sonic’s soul running from you DS
Hooray! Enjoy Dave 🪀🪀

Had to find new shoes again as the Adios Pro 3 was not working out with my feet, but made it the half marathon distance today ✅
Pace suffered half way through thanks to some killer steep hills, but hey ho.
Collapsed on the first grassy patch I found afterwards.
For sure! Just drop me a DM 👍
2 Hours done!
This feels like another major milestone reached, would not have believed I’d be going this far 2 months ago.
Thanks! The 3 isn’t the latest model, but I found these cheaper than the brand new 4, and it’s still supposed to be a great marathon distance shoe.
There’s so many options out there built for different purposes, it felt a bit overwhelming trying to choose 😵💫
If you haven’t heard, I am running the London Marathon for the mental health charity Mind, and raising money to support their work!
As part of the campaign, I am offering sketch commissions for donations :)

First commission complete! Big thanks to @auntymoira.bsky.social for the donation, this was a super fun way to kick things off.
I didn’t expect so many people to be approaching and donating, so thank you to everyone who has, I’m working through everyone’s requests ✍️💨
My race day shoes arrived today, ready to break in. The Adizero Pro 3. Excited to take them out for the easy run this week!
No OCs are welcome too!
Thank you! Reached 30% of the goal now, momentum is good :)
