We've already got Mario Lego, but now we can look forward to picking up an official set of Sonic the Hedgehog Lego bricks.

As VGC reports, 24-year-old Sonic fan Viv Grannell used the Lego Ideas website to upload a Sonic Mania - Green Hill Zone brick set idea. In order to be taken seriously by Lego, the idea needs to attract 10,000 supporters, which Viv's idea quickly garnered. Now Lego has confirmed it is working with Sega (and Viv) to make the Sonic brick set a reality.
High resolution images of Viv's Ideas design are available on Flickr. The original idea consisted of over 700 Lego pieces and included a Sonic the Hedgehog minifigure, Dr Eggman, Motobug, and three Flickies as brick-built figures, Egg Robot mech, Green Hill Zone "Palm Tree," "Spring," "Bridge," and "Loop" modules, as well as Phantom Ruby and Ring accessories. More recently the set added Heavy Gunner and Heavy Magician as brick-built figures.
Lego is still figuring out the final design, so the brick count and details could change. After that we'll find out what the price is and when it will be available. Regardless of how expensive it turns out to be, it's a guaranteed hit due to how many Sonic fans there are. And if it sells really well, it could be the first of many Sonic-themed sets.
