Iizuka has stated that the character will be unexpected, so a villain (who remains a villain) would go against the norm. The character shown in the image does have a different design than Fang, most notably would be the lack of Fang's iconic hat and while the Chaotix were redesigned when they returned for Heroes, the iconic parts of theor designs remained (Espio's horn, Charmy's helmet, and Vector's headphones). Granted, it is possible that Fang doesn't have his hat in that image because it would too much of a giveaway.

I guess only time will tell, but I'm not gonna get my hopes up either. "Unexpected" means expected the least. Something that the entire fanbase are barely expecting is a COMPLETELY new character. No one even mentioned that. Actually, I think the fanbase would expect a new character to be completely new. A returning character from years ago is unexpected. 95 percent of the fanbase were making stupid character specualations like dreamcast, future or even boom sonic. Now people are trying to speculate that bubsy or even some Archie comic characters will be the "new" character. What I am saying is that a very small minority of the fanbase are speculating a COMPLETELY new character. Where are you getting those statistics?

And the Bubsy thing is a joke.
