About That Hello Kitty Kaiju from Max Toy Co x Sanrio - Now Sold Out from #hellokitty40 #HelloKittyJANM

So before I do the inevitable round-up post abut the Hello Kitty 40th Anniversary museum show opened during the weekend, I'd like to bring folks' attention to this utterly adora-ROARable HELLO KITTY KAIJU soft vinyl / sofubi production figure, available only at the Japanese American National Museum store! #OMGOMGOMG #IWANT

"Sculpted by Makino-san, with a Drazoran body, with a cute Hello Kitty face ;-) It's mini sized and two parts, 3.5 inches tall, comes bagged with official Hello Kitty event header."

Retail is US$40.00 each, and this is an "official" Sanrio product too (courtesy of the efforts of Jamie Rivadeneira of JapanLA) … but alas, seems the item is SOLD OUT as of this post??? Mark Nagata mentioned; "Well, these were on sale at the #hellokitty40 #HelloKittyJANM but have now Sold Out! But, we are making more ... Check back in a couple of weeks for availability!"
