Bruh you forgot the best Sonic:
"Pakistan McDonald's Sonic Heroes Happy Meal Commercial" Sonic!

Sonic generations: “Hello younger Sonic!”
Sonic forces: “wOW itS A SoNIc FrOM AnOtHeR dIMeNsIoN”
That was a bad idea why did they do that
"It's been Generations since I've seen you, are you okay?"
@@NvanRoblox To be fair it was probably because Classic Sonic wasn’t a younger Sonic in the first place. Classic Sonic was 15 from the start and Modern Sonic is about the same age. Generations calling Classic a younger Sonic seems to have been a mistake that sega sorta corrected. Since Classic Sonic obviously can’t be a younger Sonic if he’s canonically the same age as modern Sonic. The whole alternative Sonic from another dimension is stupid but it does make sense.
@@CEDL0W Oh now I understand
@@NvanRoblox idc about How they did classic Sonic I just care about how they did Tails! Lol
Paramount worker: hey, how do we make sonic realistic?
Paramount worker 2: let's give him cat ears, separated eyes, make him look like a man in a suit, and.....
Paramount worker 3 in the background: AND REAL TEETH!
The guy who knows how sonic should look like: wait no we shouldn't....oh wait I'm too late...dang
I cant be the only one to think this but at 6:02 Sonic's smile looks like the Nike logo
I see it too XD
Wow... SONIC WORKS FOR NIKE! Confirmed! (Jk)
@@kenwalkensdeadchannelcanal2886 I do work for nike. Mwahaha!
@@sonicthehedgehog9727 bring me a chilli dog!
@@PickleRicksFATASSCOUSIN Of course. Here you go kind sir!
Riders Sonic is still my favorite. I don't care what anyone says, I think that Sonic looks the best when he's lanky and stylized.
@Seraphi Grimaldi Yeah, that's my favorite too!
I really liked playing sonic riders zero gravity only to use the skee shoes? (I don't know if that's how you spell it)
But sadly... my ps 2 Broke! :(
R.I.P Ps 2...
I think he didnt include it because the original riders game with the 2d intro he looks very similar to adventure sonic, buti have to say i love the comic book style they gave it
Sonic Riders is my favorite stylized design. It looked cool.
@@nazonrev5087 *buti*
The new Sonic movie design is pretty badass.
especially compared to the old one
INSERTGODZILLANAMEHERE 1 Agreed.
Yeah!
Yea it's like the modern sonic and the classic one mix
Nah he still look pretty weird and his eyes should be connected.
4:05 E.T. in a Sonic costume
MrWhatdafuBOOM lol
I really like the Sonic X design.
Feil Vei it was Clean
Same. It's super awesome
I highly agree
I disliked the 3 quills but it’s alright
nice icon!
I've always saw Boom Sonic as an sort of "Adult Sonic", since he has more quills, he is taller and isn't soo much cocky. And I always though that blue arms make more sense since Shadow and Silver don't have "skin color" arms. Plus, imagine Sonic shaving his arms... ಠ_ಠ
Agree
I also think boom sonic fits rogers voice the most since this sonic also looks older so he needs an older voice
you forgot about his copious amount of dad jokes in the show 🤣
YYYYYEEEEEEEEEEETTTTTT
My kid was so sad for a while because he didnt want boom, and modern sonic as the same character
Rankings I'd like to see you do next:
- Power Rangers suits
- Godzilla designs
- Favorite Spider-Man artists
- Spider-Man villains
- Halo Spartan helmets
The Electro dot super electric man. So powerful and fast could dance
I love the fact that u put the newer sonic design so high up, I love how expressive and great it looks, I hope the games take note, a new sonic game with a design like that could be awesome.
12:23 I love this one in my opinion
Same
Same. It's really nice
Beerus, why are you here?
Yeah
Lord Beerus you loving something isn’t an opinion
12:24 This is my personal favorite design of Sonic, he is so expressive and a sassiness that no other design gives. I really wish this design stuck around for longer.
The Toei Sonic is my favorite too. I also really like the design from Sonic R. I think it really captures the Toei design in 3d in way that really worked for the platform.
Modern Sonic is actually my favorite.
Gold Ninja my favorite is adventure 1 and jp Sonic 1
I like classic sonic
Same
Gold Ninja Gaming My favorite is Sonic
I agree. It is nostolgic to me and an appealing design at that.
I must be a weirdo but i prefer my sonic lanky
arock32497 agree, sa2 sonic is amazing
Same
arock32497 Sonic being lanky makes the most sense to me. He has long legs which works since he’s always running.
Same kinda like the 06 design a bit I think the lanky look works good for shadow in that game
First I like sonic adventure 2 design then my second is the sonic the Hedgehog 2006 design
12:30 has always been my favourite
Same here
Meeeh... it's. Just ok for me. :/
@@kenwalkensdeadchannelcanal2886 ok boomer
@Muffin-sponge why ask though?
God, I never noticed how goofy the smirk on that particular Sonic Heroes image was
I like the black knight model. Like vanilla look but more textured and angular.
I wonder what the Toei and Modern designs put together would be like.
The team sonic racing shorts
Slime Prime that's not a bad Sonic tbh. Wouldn't mind seeing more
13:00
Slime Prime aka the best sonic design to date lol. tyson hesse needs to be the art director for every sonic game here on out
The recent chao in space animated short.
Once I saw the one in the background I'm like... Oh boy
Tifiys 2276 Kenny panders everybody the reason we lost the Archie comics and probably won’t ever see those characters again
You can get punished to CBT for that.
My number 1 will always be the 2D Sonic art of the Adventure series, with number 2 being Toei Sonic.
6:11 ..... How did Nike make it into Sonic's mouth
Lots of brand deals
Sonic: into the sonic-verse
Dude the bad thing is, is that I can totally imagine it
My nightmares are gonna me infected
When the revised movie sonic design is actually real
He can run. He can fly. He can reach the other side of the rainbow!
Where would you rank these
1.OK KO Sonic (From OK KO Let's Meet Sonic )
2.Creepy Sound Test Sonic (From Sonic CD)
3.Sanic (Yes I'm serious)
4.Batman Sonic (Again from Sonic CD)
5.Emoji Sonic (From the Tomy Sonic Boom Emoji Plush Line)
6.Riders Sonic (Do I need to tell you)
7.Claymation Sonic (Old Japanese Sonic Ads)
Immediately OK KO Sonic would be Top 5. I love the design so much.
Am I the only one who was confused when sonic said "SANIC" in the movie
Riders sonic is really good, although his body proportions are quite weird.
4:40 tree sonic
Fat tree sonic
In my opinion, Ken Penders is the Rob Liefeld of Sonic comics.
Angelo Cherrington i think rob liefeld is better than ken penders
21:01 when the substitute teacher getting clowned on by the class
I feel like people should know Toei, OVA and Tyson Hesse sonic are different enough to be separate designs
I like all of them but yeah they are definitely different things
well technically sonic and the secret rings is kinda in the main series, which sonic calls back to in sonic generations
I actually really like the Fleetway Sonic. His early design looks fine to me, and it actually makes the “Mohawk Quills” good.
But I absolutely love the later design, as it’s so unique.
4:35 Sonic the Christmas tree
Is no body going to talk about how he put SATAM, xtreme,and USA sonic over hero’s sonic.... that hurt.
Lol. Heroes Sonic is wayy better. But this video is about his opinions.
Agreed
I like all designs tbh...
SA2 Sonic is my favorite, and I mean the model.
It's got much more attitude than Modern Sonic and his proportions are a really nice blend of lank and stout.
I also think the SOAP shoes were an awesome fit for the character; I thought they fit Sonic as a character more than his classic, albeit, goofy looking shoes.
That's just me though. I do agree that classic Sonic is absolutely timeless, but something about the edge in SA2's design really jumps out to me in a really nice way.
For me sonic from, Sonic x (SA1 and SA2), overdrive, mania anime, modern are the best. And the fixed design of the movie has a very good place but I waiting for the movie.
*WhEre’S SaNiC?!*
Is that meme even alive???
Blue Walkens
In Fucking haven, *yEs!*
You saw him fully realized at number 19.
Number 1 :SaNiC tHe HeDgEhOg
The worlds record Geneous and so fast that he could beat you
16:45: To quote Lucy Loud, "We did it, Edwin! Our voices were heard!"
Modern is my favorite because it just looks good in general, like Classic is. It's so good to look at it in Unleashed and Generations and even Forces. Something I also like is that this is a more experienced Sonic. He still makes mistakes and still has his playful personality, but he's clearly been doing this for a while, and seen some stuff that he won't forget. It's like Spider Man in the 2018 game. He's not as arrogant, not as brash, but he's still completely true to the original character, just older.
Sonic Movie Sonic is my favorite sonic design (the redesigned one of course)
Yeah
13:55 Sonic with a shark fin...
Although Fleetway Sonic is a bit off model, I personally think that he has a charm to him
4:30 At that angle this Fleetway Sonic or whatever looks like a weird Blue Christmas tree. You know like those plastic Christmas trees you buy because they're cheaper than a real tree and you can use them over and over? He looks like one of those except blue and some roundness.
I'm surprised not to see Sonic Advance Sonic mentioned. It's an interesting and different design. I wouldn't put it at number one and I'm not sure if I'd put it even in the top 10, but I'm just surprised not to see it.
Me, not being a Sonic fan and only watching this 'cause of Pup: hmm yes, Sonic is blue
The Sonic X, Sonic Adventure Battle series, in my opinion should've been #2, with the newest design being #1 because it was an epic improvement from the first.. which was devil spawn. How did Boom beat Sonic X design? That's wrong..
I like the combined-design Sonic that Tyson Hesse posted on Twitter once.
Modern Tyson Hesse sonic is the best sonic design, by far
Look adventure isn’t modern and heroes is adventure
SonicDX #1 kind of
"You little furry"
Got me there😅
i felt the exact same way with sonic boom version. it looked weird till i started looking at the show n really started to like it.
11:55
*_sigh_*
This is a list comparing the DESIGNS of Sonic. The visual *D E S I G N S.* Here, you talk about Modern Sonic's *animation* style. These are two very different things, if this is a list about designs, compare the designs based on their designs.
Just watch the video, k?
@@2fyrre153 no he is right
10:38 dude that’s team Sonic Racing Sonic it doesn’t really matter if it’s modern Sonic either way modern Sonic’s design starts all the way from Sonic Unleashed
Adam Selvig he later states it was first seen in Shadow the hedgehogs lying opening cutscene then secret rings and then unleashed. Speaking of where is the werehog?
Green: I watch sonic the hedgehog! Greens brother: I love sonic the hedgehog!
honestly, the ova design is so cool. sure, his quills are shorter now but these legs. THESE LONG LEGS. they got me.
the first movie sonic looks like a blue version of the animated grinch (2019 version)
Can't believe he left out my man:
𝐡𝐚𝐫𝐫𝐲 𝐩𝐨𝐭𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝐨𝐛𝐚𝐦𝐚
Toei Sonic and Sonic x will forever be my favorite Sonic designs ever
Mine too!
@@kenwalkensdeadchannelcanal2886 didn't you just say that sonic X design is a "ok" to you? wha?
Same here!
I’ve ALWAYS hated the way Ken Penders illustrates Sonic. You’re right on the money with number 18 lmao 😂
Sonic 06 i can understand its its good but do you know how hard it to make those spikes for sonic
I completely agree with your list except for #9 Early-Mid 2000s Promo Sonic. That one is definitely Top 5 imo. But otherwise excellent picks and esp your Top 2. The opening and ending movies of Sonic CD were absolutely wonderful and made me fall in love with the character as a kid. Coolest dude ever at that point in time.
16:04 how did you get sonic's mug shots
I actually really liked the heroes version.
Same
Same
same
When you said how much disturbing detail went into the first model for the live-action Sonic, and I just started CRACKING UP at the thought of how much effort the animators and designers put in to make it look real and life like only to be abused and bullied by the entire internet to scrap their hard work 😆😂
And what about Dr Eggman?
Amazing lists, I agree with most of the ranks on this list but I've always wondered how Sonic's eyes are attached as you mentioned in the video, is it a uni brow... Mmm no that's one eyebrow... so a... UNI EYE???
What music is that in the beginning?
19 - the worst design
18 - 2 decent design
1 - best design
Movie Sonic(old): *Gets Fired*
Also Movie Sonic(old): *GeTs jOb FoR a CuRiOuS GeOrGe MoViE*
Swap the placement for SA1 and SA2, and i'd agree with you a lot more on this list. Also, the Heroes design isnt that bad conceptually. Obviously the plastic look is pretty bad and the head could afford to be a bit less stiff, but proportions wise, it looks nice.
If they brought this Sonic back and just smoothed out the eyebrows a bit, he'd look really good for a sort of Adventure-Era Sonic in a Generations 2 game.
I think the real reason people associate Modern with Unleashed is because its the first time they played that design.
I agree with ur #1 pick. Its always been my favorite cause he just look SOOOOO clean. Amazing!!!
the sonic riders, sonic heroes, sonic 06, sonic boom, and sonic adventure designs are my favorite designs
I still say they should have gotten Jaleel White to voice classic Sonic in Generations, but that's probably just me.
Yo channel pup, you should talk more about Sonic. Like you should do a video on all the Tails character designs.
great video, love the 3d blast, sonic adventure, classic sonic, and adventures of sonic cartoon sonics
I completely agree with your top picks! The Japanese classic Sonic designs from Sonic CD and Mania are his best designs. They are such a good mixture of cute and bad a**. They also are better representations of a hedgehog's shorter arms/legs. Sonic generations proved classic Sonic can also look great in 3D and I wish they would stick with his more classic look.
Sonics voice from riders to unleashed was the best sonic voice actor, the present one is too mature
That’s Jason gritthith
Watched the entire video just to make sure we were on the same page on which Sonic design is the best... and I am glad to say we agree!
i got an ad for the sonic resturaunt while watching this
Tyson Hesse's Sonic design is definitely great but it would've never been translated well into 3D games, so I think there should be a category for this. Also, some of these designs have never been animated before so while they look appealing, they might not be practical for animation.
I agree with this list. There was great respect for toei sonic, japanese classic sonic, adventure sonic, generations classic sonic, and even modern sonic when he debuted in unleashed/shadow 2005/the storybook games. Another great one was of course the box art from the adventure and advance days, and I always personally loved Sonic 06’s model, especiallt with the new fanmade polish we see in Project 06 by Chaos X, and also the cgi cinematic cutscenes for Sonic in Sonic 06 (sonic and elise in the forest, eggman’s ship crashing, and even the ending cutscene where Sonic and Elise blow out the flame of Solaris and we see Sonic running through Soleanna)
Great video all around
What’s your theme music?
Hmm... I dunno, "Promo Sonic" as you call him is my favorite. It still holds up really well, especially when compared to Classic Sonic; and is a better "Modern" Sonic than the current one. That's just me though, but I do feel it's a bit of a shame it wasn't ranked higher.
Also, if you ask me, Ken Pender's Sonic should've been placed at the bottom; as in worse than V1 Movie Sonic. It seems everything Sonic related the guy touches becomes a gross parody of the original. He made the female characters, especially Sally, WAY too human like as the most egregious example. Blech! But, that's neither here nor there in this video. Perhaps you could address Penders era Sonic more fully in a future video, if you haven't already?
We lost satam season 3 to him
@@extranosense9553 Yet another reason why Lenders Sonic is the worst; from a background perspective as well as a design perspective.
how do you spell toway sonic?
The best version of Modern Sonic is in Forces and Lost World. I don't know why people haven't brought it up, but they brought Modern Sonic even closer to Classic Sonic in those two games. He has shorter proportions, he's a lighter blue color, his quills are shorter, and in Forces they even gave him his original idle pose from the first game. Next to Toei, that version of Sonic is my favorite, and I hope they continue to use that model for the next games.
That's why many people don't like forces or lost world sonic
Modern sonic is supposed to look different than classic not the same
@@electromagneticpsychopath4973lost world sonic is ok its just the forces
@@electromagneticpsychopath4973a game couldnt be more harmful
Just for the sake of clarification, during the Ken Penders segment, not all of those images were done by him. At 4:06 was Al Bigley, 4:17 was Steven Butler, neither of those images has anything to do with Penders.
20:01 the background with tails,sonic,knuckles makes think of Las Vegas
I can't believe that some people didn't realize that sonic's design swap from classic to modern until 2010, I always thought that Sega just liked to switch it up. (I was around 3-7 when I thought this)
Classic Sonic has more balls than Modern Sonic
@MrWaffle999 I pretty much put that there because, I didn't make one at the time and the other profile pic I had didn't look so good to me so I just put modern Sonic there until I made one or got someone else to make one for me and also I said Classic Sonic had more balls because he didn't run from Amy like Modern Sonic does and which was literally the reason why he didn't let her in the mania elevator I just forgot to mention that
You're safe with me, Pup, I like Boom Sonic.
Wait what about the sonic from team sonic racing animations, why isn’t he on the list (just asking)
Whats that theme at the begining
Paramount was even told by Sega himself people would hate Sonic’s first movie look
All my life I've always bought and worn red sneakers, and always wanted those Sonic Adventure 2 sneakers.
Lool. All my life I've been wanting to get red sneakers but I can't. 🤣
He just looks weird without blue arms now because the movie sonic honestly looks better
Dark Hydra your obviously not a real sonic fan blue arms are looked down upon.we just made an exception and didn’t complain about the blue arms on the movie sonic because we’re happy he dosnt look like a frickin monster under my bed
@@jaymyster7262 thats your opinion. movie sonic to me is the #1 sonic its the best he's ever looked also I'm sure I've been playing sonic longer than you've been alive
Tbh, blue arms or not, I've never really cared. I've like Sonic either way coz it suits him either way.
Dark Hydra how old are you cuz I’m 21 and I have been playing sonic since the late 90’s
@@sonicthehedgehog9727 I agree with you on that also I think almost all of the sonic designs look great regardless of small details
Yo didn't Rush (in game) have Modern Sonic for the first time since it released THE SAME DAY as Shadow the Edgehog?With the same design?
I actually have a theory as to why they refer classic sonic as a sonic from another dimension. Maybe before and during sonic generations classic sonic WAS sonic from the past. But maybe after the events of generations classic sonic went on to have different adventures which means he's now a different sonic
I think Sonic Heroes deserves to be a lot higher. Sonic being colorful and having his sharp teeth be real apparent is real cool. It mad him stand out and I personally like more vibrant colors for Sonic
Sonics best design is definitely the way he looks in Sonic Unleashed
