As far as video game characters go, there are not many who have more iconic facial hair than Sonic's Dr. Robotnik. The mustachioed villain is one of Sonic's biggest nemesis and has never been seen without his trademark stache. Until now, that is. Recently, Sega announced that the evil doctor is going with a clean-shaven look for the first time in franchise history. Sonic fans can rest easy though, because Robotnik is changing his look for a good cause.
It's certainly nice to see Robotnik supporting a good cause for once, and it'll be interesting to see how much of his trademark mustache he'll be able to regrow in a month. Of course, the obvious choice is for Sega to simply grow it back to its usual length, but it'd be fun to see if the doctor can grow it even further if given the chance. Whether Sega has fun with it or not, you have to love seeing the team using even its evil characters for good.
