This is part 2 of the figure trifecta, (first part was Mario from he 3 pack.) and part 3 will be something special. ;) Let's start the review!

Painting & Sculpting:
The painting and sculpting on this figure is one of the more defining features about this figure, this looks the most accurate to the 3D models of Sonic seen in any modern games. He stands at roughly 4 inches tall, and scales pretty well compared to Mario or even Marvel legends and Star Wars Black Series. The only issues in this category is the paint could be prone to chipping and some examples on the joints may be a little loose, but it's a 10 dollar figure so don't expect premium level quality. Another issue is with the head, it's very much filled with all plastic making it very top heavy, which if you don't pose him properly, he will fall down because of his big quills, to the point were you'd probably would have him leaning against the shelf. Along with that, is the accessory, every wave always has to have Sonic in it, so they'll give him a lame accessory like a spring, or in this one, a 1up, this is where I feel Jakk's should really experiment with different kinds of accessories rather than resorting to the same old tired thing. (I swear, the amount of spring accessories I probably have...)

Articulation:
Sonic has a swivel at the head, arms move out but no elbows, legs and knees move out with the same kind of joints, ball joints at the wrists and ankles separating the hands and feet from the rest of the figure.

Closing Thoughts:
Overall, this is objectively one of, if not the most accurate Sonic figure we've seen ever. While it has a few issues holding it back, these problems aren't NECA levels of bad, just small hiccups that could be improved upon.

That was the review, I'll upload art again starting on Christmas, see you then.
