I read this as "Sonic re:Colors".

I've been playing too much Kingdom Hearts lately.

Longfellow

You don't see Mario recolors or Zelda recolors. At least I haven't.

Gelzo

Uh... Luigi and Dark Link?

Longfellow

And Fire Mario. And Fire Luigi. And Wario. But you don't see kids putting up purple Marios and blue Links and green Peaches on their YouTubes or DeviantArts.

Blue Links... Zora Tunic/Four Swords?

Mario recolors used to be really really common on Mariowiki.

Longfellow

Dammit. Never have I been so sad to be wrong.
