LEGO Ideas 21331 Sonic the Hedgehog has secrets in the instructions
Instructions for the latest LEGO Ideas set are online, revealing references in the manual for 21331 Sonic the Hedgehog – Green Hill Zone.
Please note that this article will contain spoilers for the instructions of 21331 Sonic the Hedgehog – Green Hill Zone.
We’ve already revealed that 21331 Sonic the Hedgehog – Green Hill Zone is filled with Easter eggs and details that link back to the original game, including a collection of Chaos Emeralds.
However, the references continue inside the instruction booklet. As unveiled thanks to the full manual being uploaded to the official LEGO website, the new Sonic minifigure will be right by your side during construction
When you encounter a brick-built Badnik (the enemy robots), Sonic will stop running along a progress bar at the bottom of each page and lose his rings, just like he does in the original title.
Thankfully, the minifigure will recover and keep running along, filling up the grey bar as he does. At the end of the build, when 21331 Sonic the Hedgehog – Green Hill Zone is finished, Sonic will celebrate by showcasing the Seven Chaos Emeralds, leaving you to enjoy your newly completed set.
You can get 21331 Sonic the Hedgehog – Green Hill Zone on the official online store now for £59.99 / $69.99 / €69.99 and the fan designer for the original project has recently come forward with alternate instructions to update the LEGO Dr. Eggman figure.
