Since I don’t own any official NiGHTS merch, I decided to make my own.
So far I’ve made a pen holder, notepad holder, trinket box, and two coasters.
I’ve already got plenty of Sonic stuff on my desk, so it felt like NiGHTS deserved some spotlight too.
Everything was made using a 3D printer and UV printer.
Let me know what your favourite item is?, or if there is something else I should try make next?
Last week my dad took a trip to Shanghai, China and stopped by the official SEGA Store. When I found out he was going to China, I immediately begged him to visit it for me, the store is surprisingly hard to locate, and I had to dig around online and use AMaps just to confirm the address. I even checked Taobao ahead of time to estimate how much the Sonic Cosbis would cost.
Since I’m also a NiGHTS fan, I asked him to look for any NiGHTS merch, but unfortunately there wasn’t anything Nights related in stock. Still, I ended up with a great haul: two shirts and three Sonic Cosbi figures. My dad even video‑called me from inside the store, so it felt like I was there with him.
There are only two SEGA Stores in the world right now, so it was really cool to see what the Shanghai one had. I’ve included the photos he took (with Sonic faces over people for privacy). It’s nice to finally have Sonic shirts that aren’t from the teenage boys’ section. In Australia, Sonic merch is pretty limited, we mostly just have Sonic Funkos, so it’s exciting to get something a bit more unique.
For context, the last time I visited China myself, I searched multiple Toys“R”Us and several malls and couldn’t find anything Sonic related. The only Sonic item I found near China was two Sonic Cosbis at a Japanese specialty store in Hong Kong. So, seeing a full SEGA Store packed with merch was exciting.
Luckily, ever since the release of Crossworlds and the Sonic Movie 3, I’ve noticed more Sonic merch appearing in Australia. Now I’ll never have to settle for a bottle of Sonic perfume from the chemist again.
Let me know what you think of the store, the prices, and what you would’ve bought if you were there. If you want, I can also show the Cosbis I pulled; feel free to guess which ones I got.
Prices (for anyone curious):
Total: 307 Yuan ( 62.68 AUD / 44.99 USD)
