To celebrate Sonic's 35th anniversary I'm rounding up all the games and official Lego sets that should be on any fan's shelf
Celebrate the blue blur's 35th in style
It's the 35th anniversary of the Sonic the Hedgehog franchise this year, with the blue blur having launched all the way back in 1991.
It's fair to say that the series has had its ups and downs, but it's definitely in a strong spot at the moment. Recent releases like Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds and Sonic x Shadow Generations have been absolutely excellent, and the last few years saw the launch of an official Lego line based on the franchise.
