Sonic Colors pre-order gift will be great at parties photo

Gamestop has announced their pre-order bonus for Sonic Colors. If you put $5 or more on either the Wii or DS versions of the game, you'll get a authentic Sonic wig, complete with widow's peak. Pre-order both versions of the game, and you'll get two wigs. Then you can dye one of them black and have a "Sonic and Shadow House Party Pajama-Jammy-Jam", with Sonic Colors running on the Wii and the DS all night. I guarantee you'll get lucky. Chicks go bananas for that sort of thing.

As fun as that probably sounds, it's still not as good as what I'm hoping for. Though it's only a couple months away, it's my dream to get my hands on one of these wigs before PAX Prime 2011. Then I can get one on Sterling and coerce him into doing our entire panel as Sonic. From there, we can ditch that loser Sagat, and Sundays with Sonic will be born.

After that's run its course, it's Jueves with Junpei time.

Well, this looks pretty high quality. Hm. I might pre order this.
Could become a cool collectors item in the future.

Who wouldn't want that? XP
I would rock the hell out of those spikes.

Too bad I don't plan on purchasing Sonic Colors.

This.

Now all I need to hear is that Super Scribblenauts preorder will have another Rooster Hat, and I'm going to be the first Rooster/Hedgehog hybrid.

And I was going to pick up the game regardless.
After seeing that E3 footage, I'm hooked.
I just hope to god they don't find a way to screw with the formula.

I want that hat. I'm a little bit skeptical of the Wii version, but I might put down a pre-order for the DS game.

As much as i hate furries, I can't resist this. I will run around in public screaming "you're too slow" with this thing on.

I've never got a preorder bonus that I was promised from Gamestop. I want Sonic Colours but...Amazon it is.

This makes me want to buy the game way more than the game does.

@ Chris Parker- Whoa, $20? That's pretty expensive for a free gift.

Why in hell's name would I want to wear something like that? They couldn't just make it something simple like a hat or beanie with sonic designs on it.

The Sonic hat probably only comes with the pre-order while supplies last. I had pre-ordered Scribblenauts with a Rooster hat "guaranteed", but there wasn't one waiting for me at the cash register. It turns out out my GameStop had several pre-orders, yet were only sent three hats. The employee felt so bad about it, he gave me small Assassin's Creed II art booklet since they had received too many. I found it a bit ironic, but whatever! It was really nice of him! :D

Hmmm, now they just need to announce a release date. If it's in Sept., I shall ask for one of the games for my b-day & also consider the hat a gift. I mainly want it just for collector's value. That, & it can go next to my Club Nintendo Mario hat. Hmm, if I wear both...MARIO THE HEDGEHOG???

Err, I'm hearing December. Guess instead of b-day, it'll be a Xmas gift.

Not only do I really want that dome piece, I more await the crime spree that would be followed by throwing it on my head. Must Resist... for now.

People unfamiliar with Sonic won't get why someone is wearing this (or admitting to own it) & same will go with anyone familiar with Sonic who's not the 5 or less diehard Sonic fans. Sonic fans seriously need to look at that series history & realize how the new ones are never going to be like their loved classic Sonic games & just stop buying the new ones.
