Sonic the Hedgehog: Knuckles & Shadow

Knuckles and Shadow face off as BrickHeadz rivals from the Sonic the Hedgehog universe in this two-figure set. With 298 pieces and 78 unique elements, it builds two standalone display figures in the familiar BrickHeadz format of a big head on a small body. For fans of the games and films, it's a compact addition that sits well alongside other Sonic sets.

Description

Two characters, two clear colour identities

Knuckles the red echidna and Shadow the black hedgehog are easy to tell apart at a glance thanks to their colours: red dominates on Knuckles, while Shadow is mostly black. Light bluish grey turns up on both figures' stands and detailing, and white adds smaller accents such as eyes or gloves. Spread across just 78 unique parts for two figures, each model stays clean and readable without losing signature features like Knuckles' spiked knuckles or Shadow's distinctive hair.

A compact build across two figures

298 pieces for two BrickHeadz models makes for a build that's manageable but not trivial, with each figure assembled in turn before they're lined up side by side. Construction follows the usual BrickHeadz pattern of stand, body and clip-on head, topped off with character-specific details such as the spikes on Knuckles' hands or Shadow's signature quiff. There are no minifigures here, so all the attention goes into the two oversized collectible figures themselves.

Use the parts list to compare or replace pieces

The parts list on this page covers all 78 elements with their colours, making it easy to track down a specific piece if one goes missing or gets mixed up between the two figures. That's also handy for anyone who already owns other Sonic BrickHeadz, since many base shapes such as stands and head pieces reappear across the range. It makes growing or cross-checking a BrickHeadz collection considerably easier. That overlap is especially common for stand and base pieces, which reappear in a similar form across most BrickHeadz sets from the Sonic universe.

Rivals on the shelf

Knuckles and Shadow are usually framed as rivals in the Sonic games, matched in strength and speed, and that contrast is part of what makes them work as a shelf pairing. Rather than a single model, the set tells a small story just through the two figures standing side by side, with no extra play scene needed. For fans of the games or films, it's a compact way to bring two well-known characters home at once, and for BrickHeadz collectors, a natural addition alongside Sonic figures already on display.
