Flat Sonny

Back in June 2013, HeR Interactive started a promotion for The Shattered Medallion called the "Where's Sonny?" Contest! In order to participate, fans needed to download and print-off a 2D Sonny Joon sketch, then bring him on their summer trips and post photos to Facebook of where they took Sonny. There were three winners who won the following prizes:

Their picture inserted into The Silent Spy
A copy of one of the Nancy Drew Diaries books autographed by everyone from HeR Interactive
A Sonny Joon magic mug from their merchandise store

Although the promotion ended several years ago, you can still download Flat Sonny in both color and black and white here:
