Amazon sold out of this set after the sonic 3 trailer revealing Keanu Reeves as Shadow released in August, but now it’s back in stock. With Sonic 3 premiering just a few days before Christmas, Blu-rays of the first two films and Paramount’s Knuckles miniseries could be popular gifts this holiday, and collectible editions tend to be the first still sell out when a franchise experiences a surge in popularity. Since Knuckles takes place between the second and third movies, it’s a good idea to watch that if you haven’t already. The six-episode miniseries is exclusive to Paramount+, but thankfully it was released on Blu-ray in September. Knuckles Limited-Edition Steelbook is $29 at Amazon, and the standard edition without a steelbook case is $21.
