I agree about the recolours part. That is due to poor character developedment choices/writer inconcistency/Portrayed OOC (Out of Character).

Im pretty sure I remember Sally Acorn back in the day got callled out a lot for being a Mary-Sue. Too overly perfect with no weaknesses. Some better writing can easily fix her. Official characters are fixable through character deelopement. OC can not. They are not under the jurisdictions of the Official stakeholders.

If people are going to create OC they should at least go so far as to create characters as unique as say for example Mina Mongoose or characters of the Arctic Freedom Fighters.

Their designs, backstory and personality are unique. They have many resemblences to the Sega/Archie Sonic universe but their designs and features are unique and distinct enough to not be warranted off as Sega Sonic character recolours are anything resembling too much as such.

Unless fans are going such lengths to create unique OC, here is a tip; Dont. But there's the well maded fan characters that isn't Overpowered or OOC.

You can makeover your Mary-Sue or Recolour. That's it!
