In his Encore design, he has a much bigger face and head, with a wider grin, pointed ears, less glowing pupils, and a brighter red microphone.

He has pitch black eyes, usually accompanied by red irises, although this can vary. He has a wide mouth, and his teeth are fanged and yellow, a side effect of when his body was first made. He is sometimes seen to have claws, which are often depicted as either black or purple. His skin is also paler, with a black color fading into his forearms, hands, forelegs, and feet. His fur and quills are a darker blue, less smooth, and more unkempt. Sonic.exe looks similar to Sonic, but with several noticeable differences.
