Statue of Freedom

The Statue of Freedom is a giant statue of Sonic the Hedgehog, standing on a plinth marked with the word 'FREEDOM'. It was built in the Green Hill Zone after Robotnik was defeated, as a symbol of hope.

Years later, the Mad Ferret blew up the Statue on Bonfire Night to demoralise the local villagers. The villagers began to panic that it was a bad omen, a sign that Robotnik would soon return and that they would all be turned into badniks within six months. Fortunately, Mad Ferret's plan was thwarted when Tails gave a rousing speech, saying that they defeated Robotnik before and can do it again.
