To mark Sonic's 25th anniversary, art house Cook & Becker are releasing this big art book collecting all kinds of concept and promotional images from the series' history.
It looks a lot nicer than you'd think, given how shiny and gross the series' art design has gotten over the year, wisely opting to cover the thing in some very Sonic 1 & 2, early '90s visual flairs.
There will be two versions available. One, just the book, is $US45 ($60). The other is a collector's edition ($US108 [$145]) that includes a "newly drawn matted art giclee print by Sonic Team lead artist Yuji Uekawa", as well as an outer box that folds in the centre to form a reading stand, which is a very cool trick.
They will ship in April 2017, but you can order one now.
Fine Art is a celebration of the work of video game artists, showcasing the best of both their professional and personal portfolios.

Collector's Edition - Only 2,500 will be printed, but with postage it's $185AUD. For a book. I'll stick with the standard version thanks :P
