LEGO Ideas announces Dr. Eggman’s takeover challenge competition

A new LEGO Ideas competition has been launched, with Dr. Eggman himself taking over the proceedings for a unique builder challenge.

There’s still one month to go until the full range of LEGO Sonic the Hedgehog sets launches, with five upcoming builds arriving on August 1, 2023. In anticipation of the models speeding online and into stores, a new LEGO Ideas competition has been set by an unlikely character – the villainous Dr. Eggman himself.

The latest challenge throws down the gauntlet to builders, asking them to submit their entries for a unique customisation competition. In order to take Sonic down, the foul fiend wants to #MakeLEGOSonicMoreEggman. The idea is for creative fans to submit their own version of a Sonic the Hedgehog model, but change the character to more closely resemble the moustache-twirling bad guy.

There are a bunch of great LEGO Sonic goodies up for grabs, with the Grand Prize Winner receiving 21331 Sonic the Hedgehog – Green Hill Zone, 76990 Sonic’s Speed Sphere Challenge, 76991 Tails’ Workshop and Tornado Plane, 76992 Amy’s Animal Rescue Island, 76994 Sonic’s Green Hill Zone Loop Challenge, a Nintendo Switch with Sonic Games, plus a Sonic graphic novel.

The deadline for all entries to be received is July 11 at 6am EST, with one Grand Prize winner and two runner-ups receiving LEGO Sonic the Hedgehog goodies. You can find out full details of the latest LEGO Ideas competition right here.

The full range of LEGO Sonic the Hedgehog sets will be launching online and in-stores on August 1, 2023. Be sure to head over to the reviews section of the site to find out what we thought of all five upcoming models.
