SONIC: Animated

RedX Power's alternate Sonic the Hedgehog universe is nicknamed the "Backbone" series, where anything goes without hesitation. The series where all Sonic characters (SEGA, Archies, fan-made) have different paths outside of the actual video games, comics, and tv shows. This new approach (reboot) follows not only Sonic the Hedgehog, but also the Freedom Fighters in their journey to free Mobius (Earth 2) from the tyranny of the evil mastermind, Lord Robotnik and it's machine empire.
==Plot/Origin==
Hundreds of years later after the fallout of Earth One, a machine empire has corrupted the last remaining civilizations of the dying planet. In the awakening, a new hope was forged. Children were assembled to begin construction of a rebellious army to combat the evil that has taken their world prisoner. In their moment of great need, a young hero born on the outskirts of the dying earth, with the gift of supersonic speed found his way to the newly formed, Freedom Fighters. Together with the aid of Mobius's best such as Princess Sally Acorn, Rotor, Miles Tails Prower, and many others, Sonic the Hedgehog is here to save the day from the darkness and its corrupted overlord, Robotnik. Along the way, Sonic and his friends will race into old and new enemies, new worlds, a slew of new allies, and greater dangers filled with twist and turns that have never been encountered amongst any other genre.
[Plot 2: New Age]
In a daring attempt to rescue imprisoned Mobians from Robotnik's robotilization plants, Sonic ithe Hedgehog is captured and robotizied by the returning Lord Robotnik. In the process, Sonic has been transformed into the newest threat to Mobius called Metal Sonic. Suffering from their loss of a great ally, the Freedom Fighters look to Princess Sally, who must step up and make the toughest decision ever; and a new hero will rise to bring hope back to the dying earth. New allies will form, a greater Darkness will spawn; and heroes will fall. With Metal Sonic now serving alongside a roulette of enemies, the Freedom Fighters are in for a world of agonizing pain, as a row of well known originals are rumored to parish under the "ashes of a lit flame."
==Postponement==
  Posted on 04/24/14: "As of right now, for the foreseeable future, I'm dropping out of the Sonic franchise in the terms of "art". I wanna expand my characters and give 'em more originality that I couldn't get under Sega's owned mascot (hinting at TE:SF). The future of the hit, Sonic: Animated gallery hasn't been decided upon as of yet; but it'll likely be on-going..." - RedX Power@DeviantArt
==Crossover: Power Rangers==
RedX Power has begun work on his first official cross series story for Sonic the Hedgehog (Animated). While the plot hole follows within the same strain of loops following Sonic: Animated, this genre will be from a separate timeline within an alternate dimension of the animated series. The working title is currently running (no pun intended) as Sonic: Rangers [the Ultimate Crossover]. Following the annoucement made on STEhq/DeviantArt, RedX has confirmed that you will NOT be seeing any Mobians dawning color spandex clothing (refering to various fan creations); rather, it's what you'll come to expect from the working title... a crossfire between Sonic's world and of the earth's most recognizable, super-heroic guardians, the Power Rangers.
Update 04/18/2014: "Hold your holsters, everyone... something has come to my attention, so I'm out." - RedX Power@DeviantArt
Changes have been made to RedX's page crossing out this "acid trip". Since the announcement was made, no further explanation was given to this point of the gallery's postponement.
==Team Enforcers: Strike-Force==
A new genre is in the works for RedX's DeviantArt page, taking away from the Sonic world; and moving ahead with what is considered yet another "What if..." project. The only reasons for the topic's existence here is for the inspiration to where this work's origin sided (Sonic); and that all of the character creations come from RedX's Sonic: Animated series of original concepts that are not fan drawings. "This will be my very first "draw away" construct.  In short, no Sonic, no Tails, no Knuckles... EGGMAN... SEGA, Archies, etc... oh, and nor fan characters will be involved with this title, outside of my "official" creations." - RedX Power.
Some of the other changes, separating this title from another Sonic the Hedgehog genre, is there will be no mention or existence of planet Mobius; and characters will be given complete names (if already not consist of such). While RedX's creations can't change who or what they are already, given by the Sonic: Animated genre, the usage of nicknames such as ... the Hedgehog, Echidna, Bat, Cat, Skunk, Dog, Frog, Human, etc. will not be used."It's clearly a well known, yet overused code to the characters of the Sonic the Hedgehog franchise, that I wanna stay far away from with my series." - RedX Power.
==Evolution==
While the official launch date wasn't until September 22, 2007, the logo for this animated series went thru a spurt of changes dating back from the year 2005. However, construction with this series began with actual character concepts dating back one year earlier.
==Theme Song==
Here to save the day by, Dual Lane (2007)
Gotta call, time to move out
Gotta go fast cause there ain't no doubt
Try to stop and take a rest when everything's so freely clear.
Don't stop, just keep on moving, after all we're winning, not losing
Stick with me and you will see, the world that Mobius use to be.
Now it's my way or the highway, stick with me all the way.
Together we will save the day, cause hang on we'll make it all the way.
S...O...N...I...C, GO!

=="Unofficial" Toyline?==
Animated series creator, RedX Power has announced plans of a short span project to bring some of his own characters into the action figure world. Clearly, to prevent any kinda uproar from Sega, Archies, Jazwares, and Tomy, drastic changes will have to be made. [For example: If the character and/or concept is owned by another, then it can't be made.] Therefore any actual characters (like Sonic or Sticks) cannot be released under this line without going thru a complete overhaul by design and name. The first release of this new construct will be of the long awaited Project: Freedom Leader 2 (Sally); and other future releases in such quantity will depend upon the results of this trial run.
==Concepts==
Character designs for the animated series began around the second quarter of 2004, here are a few samples dating from mid-2004 to late-2006.
