Well, today has been a slow news day, so I figured I'd post the NPD numbers for Sonic Heroes.
Gamecube: 58,582
Xbox: 19,960
PS2: 52,699
Total: 131,241
Add that to the sales of the last two months (396,180), and the total sales of the US version of Sonic Heroes are: 527,421. Not bad for our cool blue heroe. We may see him it over a million by the end of the year if this keeps up.

A few days ago I sent my third email to CiTV. The email was to make sure episodes 10-13 would be shown unedited on the repeat run, as they all had nearly 2 mins cut out on their first showing. Unfortunately the reply I got says they will only be repeating the first 10. Here is the reply:
Last week I sent a second email to CiTV about the edits they have been making to Sonic X. As well pointing out how noticeable the edits are & asking if the repeats they are showing would be uncut, I also asked if they would be getting the second set of Sonic X episodes (The Chaos Emerald Saga). I recently received this reply:
"Drood Henge" is on Ebay with a starting price of $500.00. Bidding ends on April 21 at 8:41pm Eastern Time (or 5:41pm Pacific Time).
Drood Henge is the 2nd to last episode in 2nd Season Satam where the gang disovers the deep power stones. Cover has a few wrinkles from clip and storage - the rest of the pages are in perfect condition. Signed on various pages by Pat Allee & Ben Hurst.
TV series Sonic Underground is to be released over 10 DVDs, each with four episodes each on them. Volumes 1 and 2 are going to be released on the 31st of May.

Sonic X viewers in the UK:
As you may be aware a few weeks ago Citv started editing the Sonic X episodes it shows: (these edits started at episode 10: "Fight! Sonic's Baseball Team"). The edits mean that as much as 2 mins is missing from the episodes (on top of the edits made by 4 kids entertainment). The edits can also be very noticeable as it will suddenly jump from one scene to another. I (and I presume many of you) are concerned about this, so 2 weeks ago I sent an email to Citv asking them not to edit the episodes – and a few days ago I got a reply.
A new Sonic Advance 3 video is up at THQ.co.uk. Like the first, you need to sign up to view it, but I suspect a site like IGN will have it themselves in a few days if you don't want to.
