Sonic's Green Hill Zone Lego Set Is On Sale At Best Buy

Sonic followed in Mario's Lego footsteps in 2021 as the blue blur's first set, designed by a fan and modeled after the iconic Green Hill Zone, was released. Several other Sonic sets have come since, and it seems the OG may soon make way for them and whatever comes next. The Green Hill set is on sale at Best Buy, and the clearance label attached indicates this might be your last chance to pick it up.

$79.99 at launch and kept at that price for the majority of the past two years other than when it's included in something like a Black Friday sale, you can currently pick up Sonic's first Lego set for $59.99 at Best Buy through the link in the box below. Not the biggest price cut in the world, but you do get a lot of Lego for that price. Made up of 1,125 pieces, when complete, the set gives you a Lego version of the series' most famous zone for your Sonic minifigure to speed through.

Most Lego sets don't tend to stay available forever, and this might be the first indication that Lego plans on retiring Sonic's first set. The good news - on top of being able to pick up the set for less at Best Buy - is the set is still in stock on the Lego site with no indication there are plans to retire it anytime soon. It may just be a case of Best Buy selling through the last of its stock before the set is exclusively available through official Lego channels.

LEGO Ideas Sonic The Hedgehog – Green Hill Zone

Sonic the Hedgehog gets the LEGO Ideas treatment, depicting the iconic Green Hill Zone in all its glory.

With Sonic's Lego world growing, it makes sense that a retailer might need to make room on its shelves for what's to come. Smaller sets introducing Tails and Amy Minifigures were released midway through last year, and then Shadow joined them before the end of 2023. That trend has already continued in 2024, a Knuckes mech set released that includes the echidna and a Rouge Minifugure, possibly hinting at the bat being the next character to get the spotlight in other Sonic media.

Knuckles and Shadow will continue to (hedge)hog the spotlight for the time being as they're the characters with the most to promote throughout the rest of 2024. Knuckles' spinoff show hits Paramount Plus on April 26, and then Shadow will be introduced to Sonic's live-action universe in December via Sonic the Hedgehog 3. Shadow will also star in Sonic x Shadow Generations, a remaster of Sonic Generations that will feature Shadow content not present in the original game.
