*Sigh*... that's why steroids should be illegal look what happened to Knuckles.
Hi, I'm Fuckles The Echidna, I rape EVERYTHING! -Shot-
Just kidding. But yeah he looks a bit too much like he's on steroids.

Do you guys notice the tape on their hands and legs? And also notice their rugged clothing? It looks like they're in some kind of big war with Eggman.
Eggman looks like some kind of pilot or something. Could he be the leader of a robot squadron or something?
I don't mind Sonic's new appearance, he looks like a mix of Classic and Modern Sonic. I wish this were a reboot so we could see him like that all the time.
Tails looks the same.
Amy looks...hot...?
Knuckles looks awesome. It would make sense for him to be the big guy of the group. I don't think his skinny arms did him any justice in the previous games. I was playing Sonic 3 and Knuckles, and my little brother, who was like five, asked me why Knuckles was so strong. I couldn't really answer, so I just said "cartoon physics."
I think you used the TV Tropes definition of "Took a level in badass" wrong. It's a alternative Sonic universe though, so they were badass just RIGHT from the beginning. For Sonic, he looks just like that one prototype design of himself that was named "Mr. Needlemouse". I even like the cowlick-like straps coming out of his quills. And yes Rex, Amy looks hot, but remember that she's still the best badass in the Sonic Boom series. I'll call her Badass Rose.

Con:
-Could still end up being the one getting trapped all the time by the looks of the TV trailer
Dude, wearing goggles is AWESOME. I even wear it in real life except when I'm sick. I don't wanna barf on it. So I still always wear it. Digimon is my only reason why I like the goggles, the goggles just seems to be having meaning and a "cool" feel to anyone...But some people just say I look weird and out of place with them. > >'

Why do the characters need design appearance to prove that they're actually strong...? Ain't that a little stereotypical at times? Well, yeah maybe it's nice Knuckles has that.

...Dude, she's badass. That's all anyone can say about it. Yet you couldn't judge. ; ;

-An extreme change from modern high-tech setting to this so suddenly could prove unappealing to the younger audience who knows sonic from things like Sonic Unleashed and Generations (City Escape and other things contributed to the popularity of running through insanely designed cities, seriously, who built City Escape, and how drunk was he?)
Eh, I don't know anything about SatAM, so I'm gonna keep my mouth shut about it. Also this game needs more of a world similar to Sonic OVA. It's the best and better Sonic Cartoon-Er, movie OUT there of all. Animation adaptations is the better way of putting it, but I don't know how good Sonic Boom TV would really be, so I'm looking foward to that cartoon too.
