Welcome to Veeky Forums's Sonic General. Here we discuss everything Sonic! Share art, romhacks, and other community content. Talk about the games as well as the expanded franchise.
Metal Sonic is nothing more than an attempt at replicating and surpassing the legendary spirit of the wind.
But a copy can never measure up to the original.

I'LL MAKE YOU COMPUTE THAT BINARY!
Blake Johnson
I remember seeing Neo Metal in the Sonic Heroes opening cinema, and being so excited because I thought Mecha Sonic was back for revenge.
God, I was disappointed.

Silver the Hedgehog Living Paradox
Speaking of which, I theorize that Metal Sonic was constructed in the future by Eggman on Little Planet, using Time Energy as a way for Metal to surpass Sonic's speed.
Jackson Morris
This. Go ahead & do the drawing anyways, user. Ya fleshbag

Last thread was pretty great.
Aiden Morgan
You called?
Ryder Kelly
I'm sorry.
Hunter Powell
disgusting sack of flesh/10
Charles Flores
Yeah I would say it was one of my favorites. Right off the bat it was comfy as fuck. I'm already excited for /kitty/
Juan Edwards
So... the red rat has come to give me some amusement...
Brayden Williams
I like him. Reminds me of French animation for some reason.
Mason Sullivan
AND THIS IS TO GO EVEN FURTHER...

I theorize that Eggman somehow managed to scan and collect Sonic's data at the end of Sonic 1, and used that data in the (Bad) Future on Little Planet to create Metal Sonic.
Since he was on Little Planet, Eggman could have used the weird temporal nature of it all to inject Time Energy into Metal Sonic on top of Sonic's data, allowing Metal to not just match Sonic's speed, but surpass it through the manipulation of time itself.
But by the time Sonic CD happened, Sonic had already gotten stronger and faster.
After Sonic CD, Metal Sonic was left behind on Little Planet. But what made Metal Sonic different and superior to Silver/Mecha Sonic, is Sonic the Hedgehog's Data.
During Sonic 2 and 3K, Eggman might have used Silver Sonic and Mecha Sonic to scan Sonic's data, (though Mecha Sonic's programming probably got a little messed up as a result), and thus by the time of (S4:II / Mania), when Eggman had Metal Sonic again, Eggman upgraded him with Sonic's new data.
After absorbing the Lost Labyrinth's treasure in Episode: Metal, and the Dark Rings or whatever in Knuckles' Chaotix (that Metal Sonic Kai transformation), Metal Sonic evolved even more. The Sonic data within his programming became more alive and conscious with every battle.
During SA1 and SA2, Eggman upgraded Metal even further, giving him the ability to copy any data and transform his body, thus negating any need for constant updates. But at this point, Metal Sonic's Sonic Data evolved to the point that Metal was pretty much a robotized version of Sonic himself, except with Eggman's evil programming. And thus, Sonic Heroes ensues.
Xavier Lewis
This is objectively correct
Thomas Lewis
>/kte/ What a waste
Ryder Parker
I'd rank /ssthg/ higher, but all 5 were great threads.
Charles Roberts
A bit generic for Sonic and even in general, but not bad.
Noah Thompson
That one was actually pretty fun though
Jose Cox
Metal Sonic's plan to copy the power of Chaos through Chocola and Froggy was his attempt at matching Sonic's Chaos Factor!
Jack Smith
We should bring back /egg/.
Evan Robinson
Fuck off Sparky.
Adam Martinez
This fits, but Mecha is unique in that he could access and utilize chaos control/go super. He rebelled even before metal did
Caleb Ross
True. Just wish we got more Knuckles pics.
Jordan Anderson
Why does Sonic Team use Metal all the time but never Mecha?
Colton Sullivan
You know what they say, you can never go back home. It's like high school or college. Enjoy them while you're there, because it's a one-time gig. /egg/ was great, but now it's in the past.
Ryder White
I kind of addressed that.
I theorized that Mecha Sonic was meant to copy Sonic's data and send it to Eggman. But, Mecha Sonic's own programming got messed up by Sonic's new (and more chaotic) data, and he went haywire.
Connor Cox
>Why does Sonic Team use Metal all the time but never Mecha? The same reason they use green hill all the time. Barebones nostalgia pandering.
Forces gets at least a little credit for bringing back the US theme for the fight instead of the JAP one for the 5000th time.
Brody Wilson
Far more people know who/what Metal Sonic is by name and would see Mecha as being a lazy copy. Lots of people would just wind up calling him Metal Sonic anyways.
Parker Baker
Ah.
Austin Ortiz
>You know what they say THE MORE THE MERRIER
James Reyes
FUCK OFF.
Isaac Baker
Lots of people do call him metal. That doesn't mean we don't want him back. He was a better antagonist than metal in the genesis games anyway. No disrespect to metal.
Should have seen that coming
Jordan Robinson
Fucking shit.. i missed the Metal thread... here is Metal i drew a bit ago.. How are you today /sthg/ i miss you
Henry Wright
Silence fleshbags!
Doing good. Thanks for the lovely pic, btw!
Landon Parker
I wish I could go back to highschool, if only to test the boundaries of what I could get away with. Highschool fucking sucks.
Jackson Hernandez
Test
Parker Gonzalez
Fuck which one do I shoot?
David Rogers
>because it's a one-time gig. Thank god, I'd rather kill myself than experience high school again.
Juan Bennett
Does anyone have the link for Sage? I only found the one for Bump.
Jaxson Scott
*BEEP* *BEEP* Best ship coming through.
Kevin Murphy
You can't trick me user I know where that's from.
Luke Barnes
Rouge is gross and smells of dried semen.
Aiden Martinez
Shoot his ancestor, it should erase both of the Silvers.
Jayden Jones
Stop bullying beep beeps
Elijah Rivera
Mecha Sonic gets a new design every time he appears, while Metal Sonic's is mostly constant.
Michael Wright
>It's like high school or college. Enjoy them while you're there, because it's a one-time gig. >/egg/ was great, but now it's in the past.
You're reminding me of the twitch Power Rangers marathon. Sure it gave some fun /tv/ memories (as well as a lack of sleep) and I still wish I could have experienced more than what I had but at the same time it wouldn't be the same doing it another time.
Nolan Peterson
Rouge a thot. A THOT!
Joseph Gonzalez
Japanese fans liked CD more than 3&K
Noah Cruz
Didn't stop Eobard Thawne, why would it stop Silver?
Dominic Butler
Reverse image search is a thing.
Adrian Lee
This is true. I was surprised to find that what we called Silver Sonic, was known as Mecha in Japan, who consider the Sonic 2 and S&K Sonic robot the exact same bot.
Landon Harris
You're one of my favorite artists here.
Samuel Taylor
It's alright user, these milestone celebrations tend to last for an additional thread. Very good metal btw.
Asher Ramirez
All women are queens, Shadow!
Dominic Sullivan
>he didn't enjoy high school Literally pussy for the taking
Chase Wilson
I miss you too user! Hope things are going well!
Gavin Flores
>How are you today /sthg/ i miss you gay
Andrew Perez
/skteg/ when?
Wyatt Martin
All merciful Chaos, I have internet access again! I missed you /sthg/. Anything happen in the last twenty or so threads besides shitposting?

Can male robot hedgehogs canonically go super?
Hunter Rivera
This is always the strongest argument against doing another Ride.
Daniel Rodriguez
user please. You're embarrassing yourself.
Andrew Lee
There's another Bump model in the works, maybe some renders and animations with it too.
Aiden Clark
So what were the previous 28 models?
Jace Wright
Sonic & Knuckles? That was pretty much /kte If by Super Knuckles, non-canon
Blaze, Amy, Metal, Shadow, Espio, Silver & maybe Mighty has been added to GHPAnon's build. Outside of that, shitposting. /msthg/ was comfy fun too.

Is Sonic & Knuckles canon?

Sonic Knight the Echidna General?
Hunter Rivera
Can respond anyone but Iizuka please?
Nicholas Scott
Yes, but they are not allowed to have all the Chaos Emeralds.
