Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed[]
In Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed, the All-Star Move has been reduced to playing a character's theme music, changing their vehicle to the plane form (if not already in it), and gives them some sort of effect like hearts for Amy. Depending on the character, they either get a projectile attack like Amy (who throws her Piko Piko Hammer) or a radius attack like Knuckles (who uses the Master Emerald to create a Chaos Blast-like attack). This is more similar to the Superstar States of Sega Superstars Tennis than the previous All-Star Moves. Also, all All-Star Themes are remixed.
