Sonic Boom Action FiguresThis page continues the Sonic Boom style action figures. This will inclued all the figure sizes & also any vehicles, playsets or any accessories the figures might come with. This page should be 2017 and later releases. This can have either factory or fan photos, plus mint on card photos.What's this?It's some kind of new un-announced Tails figure. He appears to be in a black & yellow suit of some kind.but look at the box: it doesn't have any special label or title to tell you what the figure is supposed to be. He comes with a Motobug that has the missile pack on its back that was seen in the show.but that's been released before.What is the suit?
Is it from an episode? Does it have a face mask over the figure's face? Does the box-back elaborate? This was seen at a Toys R Us that was closing in 2018.so it may already be uncommon.
If you know any details or can provide a better photo, do write in for credit. Photo by TaaronMore Boom.in space?They didn't heven hang around in space like a whole lot in the show? How many episodes were they in space and needing space suits? Why is the Boom line the 2nd to really try to force 'Sonic is in outer space' for no real reason? (Toy Island Space Fighters & Also Metal Force even though Sonic X didn't really 'go there' either much)The questions may be unanswered, but the toys are sure here for it. This is a Sonic Tails Knuckles figure 3 pack, and they'rea ll in the 'space' outfits.

The Tails, of course, is a re-paint of the individual boxed suit one above. So that's TWO of him in space. (That means there's probably also an individual boxalternate color Space Sonic as well) The set comes with 'Hero Cards' which it announces on the back alongside the clearly non-space art. It's an ok concept to be able to re-re-re-release the figures again, and cards are usually a nifty pack-in to display with the figures.
But, where weas this sold? How much did it cost?Another single 'space figure'.What's up with these space suit figures? The box-back doesn't elaborate & it doesn't have a special title. Like the Tails at the top of this page, the Knuckles here comes with a badnick figure, and it's Crabmeat. Ironically, this robot is actually pretty menacing looking with its highly skeletal face making it more fearsome to look at than it particularly acted in the show.What's different about this one though?
Notice that 'single Tails' up there had a different colored suit than the suit in the 3-pack.but this one has the exact same white/red suit.Why? Why not make the Knuckles single pack also a variant suit color.if they.already. did it for the Tails? That way at least you'd have different figures and not 'be buying the same thing over and over just to get the accessory' which everyone has known about and hated for years. It also seems uncoordinated to at least try to match the singles figures into a set.The duplicate nature of the suit vs the 3pack, it not matching the Tails from the set, no explanation, no matching art (normal show Knuckles is on the back) and no reports of where this was sold make this figure pack a Tomy mystery.Now here's something you CAN get in 2019.
It's the Sonic Boom Season 1 Action Figure DVD set. The DVD is over 4 hours of content and contains all of Season 1's episodes. It also comes with a regular Sonic & Eggman figure inside the box.While anyone who collected figures at all would already have these, it's a nice thing to add for new fans, or, just for displaying the show in a collection. It's better than some plastic DVD case by itself.Naturally it's on Amazon Sonic Boom Figure DVD Pack starting in Fall 2019. It should be around $ until it sells out.These are the usual Tomy figures. It's suspected Tomy didn't sell as many of these as it wanted to, so packing them in with a DVD is an ok idea to shift the stock since the Boom games didn't do well and Boom didn't get renewed as a show so the whole style is probably going away, plus Tomy lost the license anyway.New in 2020, comes Sonic Boom Season 1 Volume 2 DVD and figures set.Does this mean that the one above DOESNT contain all of Season 1's episodes as thought?
It is common for companies to break a series up as much as possible to milk money selling DVDs over and over again. However, if that's the case here, they are still doing a bit better because this one also comes with action figures.You get the Tomy Knuckles and their regular type Tails with this DVD set. It's a fine way to have the figures again/mib if the originals were opened, or just for display in a collection as the box has a nice window for them.
This should also be on Amazon in winter 2020.
Related Content.“It was pretty exciting! We had already made five airplane jumps and that was the third balloon jump. In some ways it was the most relaxing of all of the jumps,” Eustace recalls. “What I originally planned was like scuba diving through the stratosphere, but what I thought we could do and what we did was quite different.”In a custom-made spacesuit fitted with a specially designed life support system, Eustace dangled beneath a balloon that ascended at speeds of up to 1,600 feet per minute. After about half an hour glorying in the view from 135,890 feet up, he detached from the football field-sized balloon. Eustace plummeted back to the surface in a free fall at speeds of up to 822 miles an hour, setting off a sonic boom heard by people on the ground.
The entire trip from beneath the balloon to his landing took just over 14 minutes.“Who would have thought that all by themselves, a team of maybe 20 people or less could basically build everything necessary to get somebody up to above 99.5 percent of Earth’s atmosphere, see the curvature of the Earth and the darkness of space and return to ground safely in a means that no has ever tried before,” Eustace says. “For me, that’s the exciting part!”The specially designed spacesuit Eustace wore, along with the balloon equipment module, is now on at the Smithsonian's National Air and Space Museum’s in Chantilly, Virginia. It is a combination of state-of-the-art materials and off-the-shelf technology, made by, and, which has made spacesuits for NASA since the Apollo Program. Eustace, a veteran pilot and parachutist, founded, with the goal of developing a self-contained spacesuit and recovery system that would manned exploration of the stratosphere above 100,000 feet. He says his journey began several years ago, when a friend asked his advice about buying a large, sophisticated capsule similar to the one used by Felix Baumgartner in his record-breaking jump from 128,100 feet on October 14, 2012.“I said if it was me, I wouldn’t do a big capsule.
I would develop some sort of scuba system for the stratosphere. Imagine if you used a rig. Instead of putting a passenger on the front which can weigh 200 pounds,” Eustace thought, “why not put an oxygen tank in there and then go in a spacesuit.”Eustace got in touch with Taber MacCallum at Paragon, and asked if a system could be developed to allow a person to go into the atmosphere. After three years of work from a team of experts, he was able to make the jump.ILC Dover had never before sold a spacesuit commercially, but the company sold one to Eustace. United Parachute Technologies was part of a team that designed the main and reserve canopies, as well as giving Eustace additional flight training.
He says the team had to redesign many of the components as they worked to meld scuba technology with NASA spacesuit technology.“I was interested in the technology of how you wed these two things together,” Eustace explains. “It was important because if you really can build this scuba diving thing for the stratosphere, it makes it possible to do all kinds of things in the stratosphere. You can use that suit for anything you want to do—the highest parachute jump, or research, remaining up there for hours and hours. Any of those things are possible using that suit. It was an enabler for lots of other potential uses.”.
Eustace says the design of the whole system made it capable of much higher altitudes than the capsule system Red Bull was using when it funded Baumgartner’s jump, because it was much lighter in weight. He says the StratEx system could have been demonstrated at a lower altitude, but to prove a new technology will work; you have to go to the extremes to show proof of concept.“To silence the many potential doubters, the best thing we could do was try the hardest possible thing at the highest possible altitude. Skydiving is the hardest possible thing compared to a balloon ride up and down. That’s a lot easier from a technical point of view than what we actually set out to do,” says Eustace.There were several ground breaking technologies produced by the design team, including the Saber system which allowed Eustace to control the parachute without allowing it to tangle around him. That system released the drogue immediately, and was combined with a spin resistant system that eliminated the uncontrolled spinning Baumgartner battled during his jump.Eustace says the team had to redesign many of the components as they worked to meld scuba technology with NASA spacesuit technology.(Dane Penland/NASM)Cathleen Lewis, the Smithsonian’s space history curator, says the design team melded state-of-the-art technology with off-the-shelf equipment. “The people who do these sorts of things tend to be very conservative,” Lewis says. “They want to know that their materials and their equipment have a proven track record so it’s going to work.
But even though they are conservative about new material, they are not so conservative about adopting existing materials and combining existing materials. It’s a wonderful example of their approach to innovation that takes existing things and makes them very new.”Eustace wore a warming garment underneath the spacesuit adapted from the cooling garments by SWAT teams and first responders to keep him comfortable during the ascent.“I had two layers under the suit,” Eustace says. “The first was a very thin layer, mainly to wick perspiration, and the second layer was the Thermal Control Undergarment. It has tubes that run through it, to circulate around either hot water or cold water around me. In flight, it was hot water.”But at the top of the stratosphere where it gets very warm, design modifications were needed for the suit to keep dry air in his helmet so his faceplate did not fog.
Lewis explains that 100 percent oxygen was pumped into the helmet of Eustace’s suit, and kept there via a neck damn, rather like a “tight rubber turtle neck.” He breathed into a gas mask that shunted the used CO2 and moisture to the lower portion of the suit, which kept the helmet from fogging. To conserve oxygen during the flight, Eustace kept his movements to a minimum, which also helped prevent him from overheating on the ground.
