#Sonic The Hedgehog CD

Name: Needlenose

Debut: Sonic the Hedgehog CD

You know me! I love funny flies, and I love funny robots! And who else but The Good Doctor Eggm'n to supply me with the goods? We meet in a dark alley in trenchcoats, and he slips me a mechanical mosquito.

Needlenose is, quite frankly, a perfect cartoon mosquito! If you want to depict a Fantastic Funny Fly, you need big ol' eyes, wings, and a proboscis, with a negligible amount of body to keep it all together. And if it's a mosquito, the proboscis must be pointy, of course! If I can't be punctured by it, it is a subpar mosquito!

Needlenose is such a perfect name for this thing. Look at it! Yeah. An insect's proboscis is not actually its nose, of course, but if you think "Needlenose" is not a good name for this creature, then, well, a ghost is going to get you. Sorry, but you would deserve it.

Needlenose isn't here to take any of your blood. It's not even here to inject any strange substances into your bloodstream. It's just here to administer a Pesky Poke! Yeowch! But at least the needle looks rather pristine and sterile. There are worse things to be stabbed by, I suppose. Now, there is something you need to knows, about this needle nose!

So far, we have been looking at the typical Needlenose, seen in its ideal form. In the Bad Future, however, it has evidently gotten into some sort of non-lethal scuffle, causing its needular nozzle to become bent! Maybe it crashed into a rock at high speed. I don't know. But at least the rest of it is still in working order!

I may adore the base Needlenose design, but the simple act of bending its proboscis a bit gives it SO much character. From little more than a tool, to a bug with backstory! It makes me imagine Needlenoses bending their noses on purpose in unique ways, as a form of self-expression. What a lovely thought!

Needlenose is so simple, yet so instantly charming, and many artists know it, because it has appeared in many official comics! This one here was reprogrammed to be helpful, so it's like a Goodnik! The 30th anniversary comic has some among a crowd of Badniks trying to destroy Sonic in order to give Eggman a very happy birthday. Even when they're objectively evil, you just have to love little Needlenose!

I don't know who it was, but someone adapted this from the anime ending of Sonic the Hedgehog CD--I made the full anime ending into an animated GIF, and it is here.

[crappyblue]

here's the second (well, first, really, but i showed selene off first) ring racers character i've made so far! this is taga-taga, a badnik from sonic cd that appears in palmtree panic and tidal tempest. i "finished" this character last month, but i've gone back to polish it up and fix some jumpiness in its turnaround.

i plan on making a couple other badniks and releasing them as a pack. with any luck, i'll be able to commit to this and come out with some fun racers befitting ring racers' existing cast of badniks :>

Today marks the 30th anniversary of Sonic the Hedgehog CD for the Sega CD/Megadrive CD, which was released on September 23rd, 1993. The game marks the debut of Amy Rose, and Metal Sonic. They would go on to appear in multiple games in the main titles, and spinoffs. 30 years has passed, now it's time for Amy to pay back her kidnapper, along with the help of her younger, classic self. With the power of the Emeralds, they will take down the two Metal Sonics with the pound of their hammers!

Happy birthday to Sonic the Hedgehog CD. And once again, happy 30th Birthday to Amy Rose and Metal Sonic. Good luck to the two hedgehogs on defeating the two evil mechanical Sonics.

I have this Amy Rose story idea if anyone's interested.

Amy one day wakes up after having a strange vision from a familiar place, however she isn't left with confusion she knows what has to be done and where.

Her closest friends Cream, Big, Sticks and even Blaze ask her what's up when they spot her packing up, she explains that's she's gonna be gone for a while because she's on a quest. Her former home Little Planet had returned as well as the Time Stones, most likely Eggman would at some point discover this and try to take them again, so Amy is setting out to retrieve them before he can. Her friends offered to join her but she reluctantly declines.

"I appreciate it, but no. This is my battle, and I have to take it alone.."

They go with her anyway not taking no for an answer, with that they go to Little Planet and begin the search for the seven Time Stones. Lo and behold, there are fresh signs of Eggman's presence.

With each Time Stone Amy takes back, she's given a new power, sorta like Sonic Superstars. Such as the invisibility from 06, or light hover.

As it would turn out Amy was destined to be the Guardian of the Time Stones, back then however she was still young & not fully in tune with her abilities as such she was easily at the mercy of Eggman's creation Metal Sonic, this is her chance to make up for this failure.

With all the Time Stones in hand she can assume an exclusive form Miracle Amy, and with her newfound powers from the Time Stones defeats Eggman and saves Little Planet.

Name: Kama-Kama

Debut: Sonic the Hedgehog CD

I'm thinking of her (Kama-Kama)

I think I love her (Kama-Kama)

She's a lady killer (Kama-Kama)

And I'm her caterpillar (Kama-Kama)

Everyone knows about Slicer, the infamous mantis Badnik from Sonic 2's objectively most evil level, Metropolis Zone. But despite everything about Metropolis Zone being a creation from hell, it has become a recurring enemy, and even the PRIMARY mantis Badnik.

Well. No more. I'm making a case for the BETTER of the Mantis Badniks, who has been overshadowed for FAR too long.

I love Sonic CD. YOU love Sonic CD. And it's no secret that, like everything else in the game, the Badniks are so beautiful and striking in their designs. Very simple, evocative of the Sonic 1 Badniks, and yet very unique, sleek. When you see a Sonic CD Badnik, you know it doesn't come from any other game, and Kama-Kama is no exception.

Look at those cute buggy eyes. The long neck. The simple antennae. The cute little wheels, tilted towards eachother. And those dinky arms ending in boomerang scythes. This is a creature born perfect, and it knows it. It's too beautiful for filthy vermin to be inside it, and so they are powered by one simple flower seed each.

However, Eggman does not treat his Badniks well, even when they're borderline perfection. Some, especially in the Bad Future, are neglected, broken, unable to throw boomerangs at all. Their expressions are pained, listless–isn't that awful? Isn't that just cruel? Walk into them so that they may feel the satisfaction of causing you direct bodily harm one last time.

Of course, the only downside of being a Badnik that only appeared in Sonic CD is that by the end every last one of them is canonically dead, with no recourse. It's saddening, but I guess "wild" "life" is considered more important than the most perfect mechanical beings to ever grace the ungrateful Little Planet. 🙄

But with your help, we can change this. We can make Kama-Kama the most iconic Badnik in all of Sonic. She will be an enemy in every game. Every time they show a Badnik factory, expect to see a line of Kama-Kamas. In the next Sonic Generations remake, she will be at Sonic's party. She will be on comics. Magazines. Lunchboxes. Movies. Corny tie-ins. Whenever Kama-Kama's not on screen, everyone will ask "Where's Kama-Kama?" And you BETTER believe Kama-Kama will be in the next, probably C-tier Sonic racing game.

Thank you for all your support. I hope you're all ready for the Kama-Kama Broadway musical adaptation coming out soon.

Look at what they did to Slicer in Sonic Superstars. They neutered her. She's toyetic now. Man if only there was a preexisting cutesy-wutesy Sonic 1-eyed mantis Badnik they coulda used instead huh,

Funny Sonic CD implications:

Classic Metal Sonic's voice is deeper than its modern counterpart's

Terrifying Sonic CD implications:

Little Planet is fucking alive
