I don’t know, personally I’m kind of excited about these redesigned sonics but that’s because I like to smother them in bandages too
———-

Actually the bandages on his dreadlocks are ‘cuz of in Sonic Adventure his pseudo-Mayan echidna (??) ancestors had them SO

The things on his head are sunglasses (from SA2) and the thing on his belt buckle is an emerooowwd ‘cause he’s a tool.  And also back tats cause anyone from an ancient prophetic race has rad back tats.

Hahaha no but I actually really like Knuckles because he acts super tough and hardcore but he’s actually a big goomba and he’s super gullible and has terrible social skills which I’m going to chock up to the whole living by himself on an island talking to a rock for his entire life.  His only friends are ROCKS, guys!!  How would you expect him to know when Eggman’s pulling one over on him he’s only done it like 15 other times, jeez.  Poor knux.
