Item Box

Item Boxes (アイテムボックス, Aitemu bokkusu^?), also referred to as Video Monitors, Monitors and Item Capsules, are breakable containers in Sonic the Hedgehog series. First appearing in the original 16-bit version of Sonic the Hedgehog, Item Boxes contain various kinds of power-ups or bonuses which can be used by the player. Placed on the ground, mid-air or even hidden in many places of Zones, the player can break open it to get power-up or item by simply jumping onto, spin through or doing other technique. In earlier games, Item Boxes were first illustrated as grey monitors with flickering screen. In later games, these monitors have become floating, glass capsules.
