The third wave of LEGO Sonic The Hedgehog sets is here with three brand new models all releasing on the 1st of August 2024. These sets cover the set numbers 76997 to 76999 with 77000 releasing on the 1st of October 2024 as the theme's first D2C model. All three of the Summer 2024 models retail for under $80 and include returning Minifigures of Sonic, Tails, Knuckles and many more and new Minifigures of Super Sonic
76998 Knuckles And The Master Emerald Shrine is the cheapest set of the wave with 325 pieces retailing for $34.99. The set can be easily combined with our previous Knuckles LEGO set of January's 76996 Knuckles' Guardian Mech. The Master Emerald from that set can be placed inside the brick-built shine in 76998. Knuckles, along with Amy, can then protect the shrine from the brick-built Eggrobo who is also included in the 2024 model.
Another set that's around the 300-piece count mark is 76997 Tails' Adventure Boat. However, for 393 pieces, 76997 retails for a lot more with larger moulds being used to recreate Tails' Adventure Boat, the Sea Fox II. For $54.99 the yellow, orange and white boat belonging to Tails is the main build of the set but other neat builds include a speedball for Tails to be catapulted, an area for Sonic to parasail and a small brick-built Green Hill Zone landscape.
Finally, we have the biggest set of the wave and what will be the most expensive Sonic The Hedgehog set of the year of 76999 Super Sonic VS. Egg Drillster. For 590 pieces retailing for $79.99, the main build of the set is Eggman's Driller vehicle. On its front is a large yellow drill with the rest of the vehicle being mainly red. There's enough space for one Minifigure of Eggman but the exclusive Super Sonic Minifigure will be of most interest to fans.
