About

“Sonic’s Arms Are Not Blue” is a remark by some members of the Sonic the Hedgehog fanbase in response to ilustrations that despict Sonic’s arms being blue instead of having a peach color. The quote also became associated to Sonichu creator Christian Weston Chandler, after it was used by Chandler on his Facebook posts complaining about Sonic Boom redesign.

Origin

On October 3rd, 2014, Christian Weston Chandler posted a rant to his Facebook timeline (shown below) about how the character Sonic the Hedgehog’s arms were blue in the Sonic Boom media franchise as opposed to his more peach color in previous incarnations.^[1] Since the original post Chandler has made several others, as well as preforming acts of vandalism as a form of protest against the change.^[2]

Spread

On January 17th, 2015, YouTuber Based Tyrone, a side channel of the Fiverr star Gordan Hurd, uploaded a video titled “Tyrone Declares Chris Chan’s Innocent” in which Sonic’s arm color is discussed (shown below, left). On February 2nd, 2015, YouTuber Blues uploaded a video titled “Sonics Arms Aren’t Blue” (shown below, right).

On June 10th, 2015, the Sonic_Hedgehog official Twitter account answered to a question on Twitter if Sonic Boom would have Chandler’s infamous fan character, Sonichu, available for play;^[3] to which the account answered that it could be possible if they redesigned him to have blue arms.
