To promote the upcoming release of Sonic the Hedgehog 4: Episode II, SEGA has released a bunch of new avatar items. These include apparel your avatar can wear, like a full body Tails suit that’ll either make you look cool or creepy (320 MSP), a couple of hoodies in Sonic and Tails variants (240 MSP), a T-shirt with just the Sonic 4 Episode II logo on it (80 MSP) and last but not least, a Metal Sonic helmet.
But as the image above suggests, that’s not all of the new things available. There are a bunch of new props that would actually be pretty neat in real life your avatar can play with as well. These include a remote controlled Metal Sonic toy (240 MSP), a Drawstring Tails Plushie (240 MSP), a couple of toys based on two new badniks from Episode II (240 MSP), a Capsule toy complete with small animals (240 MSP), a game cartridge of Sonic 4 Episode II complete with a SEGA Genesis hooked up to an item monitor (240 MSP) and a half-pipe from the special stage (240 MSP). While to me this is all useless crap that costs way too much, there is actually some cool stuff in there if you’re into dressing up your Avatar. All of these items are now available on the Xbox Live Marketplace. Below are more pictures of most of the new Avatar items mentioned here.

Never mind Avatars. Does anyone else take Miis seriously any more?
Uh yeah. Especially since the 3DS ones have costumes and THEYRE FREE!!
At times like this Im glad I’m not a PS3 owner!
That one tag is so true…
Love the female costume is Tails…
Now I can live my Furry Fantasy! Er, I mean. Man, look at that Tails Costume…
Make those hoodies and T-shirts in the real world and we’ll talk.
As much as I like having a Sonic hoody on my avatar I don’t think I want to wear a real Sonic hoody and go out!
Is the guy on the left holding Nightmare from Metroid Fusion? it kinda looks like it.
What the f*** is Metal Sonic doing with a jewel on his head? that’s like the most diabolical combination of the two most evil things in the whole Sonic Multiverse.
Finally, now I can show my metal sonic fanboy-ishness with the world!
Holy crap it’s the Tails Doll…..metal sonic version….
It’s the Sonic Doll !!! :O
