5 pin-ups are available for download in this edition. The first depicts Dr Robotnik, half-hidden in shadow and drooling over a Christmas pudding. The second shows Big the Cat ice-fishing and having successfully hooked a surly Buddy. The third depicts Knuckles and Tikal in the snow, the guardian showing a cold Tikal something on a projector. The fourth is an unlettered version of the cover, showing Shortfuse the Cybernik pulling a rocket powered sleigh through the skies, with a huge sack of toys in the back, and Tekno at the reins. The final pin-up depicts Tails building a snowman of Sonic, while Amy creeps up on him with a snowball.
