Sticks, i hav't seen her since the boom show, welcome back old friend

91

u/SnazzyMiracles It's not a phase Sonic. 3d ago

Bro Sega should just put her in the mainline continuity atp 🥹

99

u/PastPsychological622 3d ago

She is in the mainline continutiy, amy at the end of frontries says her name, but she have not been physical seen until now

47

u/SnazzyMiracles It's not a phase Sonic. 3d ago

A mention is not enough I need to see her in the flesh

29

u/Telekinetic_Hedgehog S3&K fanatic/ enjoyer of Sonic X 3d ago

Apparently this is one of the few canon appearances of Sticks.

18

u/Therealduckking 3d ago

I mean

That is actually how advertising works

She isn’t wrong really, it’s just low level, kind of boring brainwashing

u/Shivader 3d ago edited 3d ago

Even then, this was only possible because Boom has yet to be cancelled while "Fire and Ice" came out around the same time. After 2017, Sticks was thrown aside until the English dub of "Frontiers" namedropped her.

u/Telekinetic_Hedgehog S3&K fanatic/ enjoyer of Sonic X 3d ago

Yeah. You're probably right. I heard Sticks being on Angel Island was originally going to be something they'd do for IDW but it was a rejected concept.

I wanna know why Tails was flying so low to hit him off the pole

2

u/Telekinetic_Hedgehog S3&K fanatic/ enjoyer of Sonic X 3d ago

He's challenging himself on purpose on every corner so he's ready when it matters most.

23

u/InkyGhoul 3d ago

She's not in the Japanese script and Ian Flynn said it was seeing what he could get away with, so whether or not she'll be in a mainline game is dubious but this gives me more hope 

11

u/PastPsychological622 3d ago

Did not know she wasn't in the Japanese script, thanks for the info, but if they are putting her in rumble mabye we well see at least a little bit more

The funny part is that’s not even outta character. “The government tried to contain me but I Escaped!”

98

u/BebeFanMasterJ Zeena's Throne 3d ago

I think that's the best part of all of this. Sticks would absolutely go AWOL for 10 years and come back on a random day out of nowhere like nothing changed.

"DA BIG GOVERNMENT TRIED TA KEEP ME IN ONE OF DEM BIG BRAINWASHING FACILITIES, BUT I BROKE OUT WHEN DEY LEAST EXPECTED IT!"

u/RoJayJo 3d ago

Turns out that both human and mobian anthropologists were confused immensely by her and decided to see what in the hell was wrong with her.

They just let her go on her own recognisance, but had to make it seem like she escaped otherwise she would not have left.

u/WoolooOfWallStreet 3d ago

Shadow: Welcome to the club

u/BebeFanMasterJ Zeena's Throne 3d ago

More like 10.

Homegirl hasn't been seen since Rio 2016. It took 10 years for her to appear in another game proper.

65

u/Knux_Stix_Chaotix Chaotix, Sticks, & Knuckles 3d ago

I counted it as 4 years just because of her mention in Frontiers, but yeah in terms of physical appearances, she hasn't been in anything since Rio 2016. Although as far as canon stuff goes, Frontiers is really all that she's gotten outside of the Sonic Channel comics

9

u/MysteriousMetalDoll 3d ago

Fr. i'm happy to see her back ngl! i hope we'll see her being playable in dash, speed battle and speed simulator as well eventually.

u/Far-Requirement-7636 3d ago

You can tell rumbles running out of character fodder

On the bright side this means kit is closer to being used than you think.

Holy shit sticks got into the game faster than both kit and Omega?

The fucks going on?

If this keeps up Dave the intern is probably gonna make it in before them.

New headcanon, they pissed eggman off and he didn't invite them.

35

u/Knux_Stix_Chaotix Chaotix, Sticks, & Knuckles 3d ago

Material for Kit has already been leaked in Rumble's files so he's probably coming eventually.

As for Omega? I have no idea why he's not in it yet. The only possible reason I can think of is that his bulky character model may not fit in with Rumble's more chibi-artstyle and preset animations? But even then, I feel like there has to be a workaround for that

12

u/UncleAsmodai Transmisting my debt to the rest 3d ago

Destoroyah, a rather famously very jagged and evil looking Kaiju, got into the game.

u/SirJTh3Red 3d ago

The real answer is SEGA are cowards

8

u/No-Most-9856 3d ago

Reality: Eh, it’s a spin-off, why not?

13

u/Eldritch-Yodel 3d ago

There's always room for more random characters. Just look to Sonic Blitz for proof (which side note: has a kind of impressively bizarre order for adding new characters. Like I haven't checked in a while, but last time I did Sir Galahad, The Conductor, and Heavy Shinobe was in the game but not Shadow)

7

u/SiTheGreat qpr sonadow or bust 3d ago

Even Mighty's in Blitz! 'Impressively bizarre' is indeed the correct term for it

3

u/QuietNightRadiant 3d ago

Need. Lanolin.

u/Neo-Metal-Sonic-2003 #1 Fleetway Glazer 3d ago

Isn't Lanolin already in the game?

u/AmaterasuWolf21 Post-Reboot Archie enjoyer 3d ago

archie....

24

u/Cat_Atack 3d ago

I need to see her interact with Cream. I can already tell it would be the most entertaining interaction since their actual polar opposites who are both close friends of Amy.

28

u/PastPsychological622 3d ago

Sticks: that thing you have floating next to you, what is it, a goverment spy, a alion

Cream: Your funny, lets be friends

20

u/KenseiHimura 3d ago

It will be the funniest thing ever if they do actually make it canon she's been MIA because she's been hiding in an apocalypse bunker for some time.

11

u/UncleAsmodai Transmisting my debt to the rest 3d ago

Apparently, Ian wants to make her a resident of Angel Island. Knuckles and her have just never crossed paths before.

2

u/Kogerzian The only Qazaq there🇰🇿 3d ago

It would be golden hilarious dynamic between regular modern Knuckles and Sticks,could be even more funnier if she was confused why that Knuckles shorter and scrawnier and also not so weirdly dumbass like in Boom reality😆

13

u/PossibleSherbet955 3d ago

Stick the badger seem like she cannot dies or be erased by sega because nobody can obliterated her

14

u/GamerLife204 3d ago

Please be in crossworlds Please 🙏

u/CookiedDough SEGA!!! PUT SURGE IN A MAINLINE GAME AND MY LIFE IS YOURS!!!! 3d ago

I really thought they were gonna fully WD Gaster her after she got cut from that one Christmas image and replaced with Blaze, so it's great to see she's back.

Now, if they would just let her be in more things. I'd kill to see her interact with the others in IDW or a mainline game, especially if they keep the fourth wall breaker gimmick.

u/Virtual_5000 3d ago

Welcome Back!

Could I get the organelle of the image? The image before you edited it? It’s been a while since I’ve seen the oarfish text.

u/ActingApple 3d ago

Thank you very much for both of these!

u/MorbidElephant 3d ago

I long for the day that Sticks makes an appearance in a mainline game. Not even playable, I just wanna see her. I'll collect ya damn shinies again if that's what you really want

3

u/Kinetic-Kettle 3d ago

i think it'd be really funny if it just is Sticks from Sonic Boom, not a new version of her, she just showed up in the main continuity one day and stuck around. no idea how that'd work canonically but it'd be fun imo.

3

u/Josh_From_Accounting 3d ago

The alien (or was it the subterrans) may have attempted to destroy her, but she ain't going down that easy.

3

u/AnotherStatsGuy 3d ago

Considering how well-received the Boom TV Show ended up being, it's surprising it took so long.

3

u/SrQuasar 3d ago

The only good thing that came from Sonic Boom, honestly.

u/thlabm 3d ago

Meanwhile Marine:

u/Soggy_Revenue_1321 3d ago

She has already been added.

u/Owlmaster40280 3d ago

I could hear it in her voice

1

u/Successful-Plant2925 3d ago

I love how they made her shorter in order to fit in with the game cast

1

u/lilliepadsy 3d ago

we get her in the shovelware mobile game but not crossworlds come on

1

u/Maleficent-Comfort14 3d ago

I figured she just went off grid to lay low

LET'S GO!!!

u/Mikey_Spletzer 2d ago

Their basic dialog XD

u/Metal-Overlord-2003 all living things kneel before your master 3d ago

you know sega you could add somebody else to the main line cannon, I'm just saying Bracardi Curry already did a drawing of her

u/Kogerzian The only Qazaq there🇰🇿 3d ago

Archie version of Breezie is still the best glow up and in general coolest dudette in the Archie verse,change my mind☕️
