tokidoki x Hello Kitty Items Hit eBay
As many of you have already noticed, the first wave of tokidoki for Hello Kitty items have already started popping up on eBay. One of the sellers is on my Real tokidoki Sellers list, and the other is a Tokidoki Blog reader in Japan, so I am sure that they are the real thing. This should also mean that the collaboration will be released in the USA very soon - perhaps even sooner than we have been expecting.
Also, the Italian eBay seller who keeps listing European exclusive tokidoki clothing has a red tokidoki cammo hoodie for men and an open-backed LP record shirt for women listed. Italy gets some really cool designs!

I really hope that these items will be sold in stores in the us so we don’t have to rely on ebay :/

when i looked at the japanese site i was a little surprised at how expensive these things were.
you posted before about a US release, so do you think US sanrio stores will carry the line?

stephanie - Simone personally told Marhem (a reader here) that the line will be released in the USA around April, but didn’t specify which stores would carry it. I would think that US Sanrio stores would sell these items, but I don’t know for sure.

employee leak info from me: all i have to say is: End of Feburary itll be released into the stores, there will only be 4 USA company owned stores that have it, and they are: San Francisco Center, Times Square, LA, Ala Moana… very limited quantities…

I remeber someone saying they thought the Beverly center sanrio would have it because they typically carry the more high priced hello kitty merchandise. Sanrio worker- is this the LA area store you mentioned? Thank you so much for the insider info!!! It is greatly appreciated! I know I will be making a drive to LA soon!!!

I can’t wait till this stuff is available. Now, I’m glad I work in the Times Square area with the store only a few blocks away but for those who aren’t near those locations, besides ebay, is this merchandise going to be available else where on the interent?

Crystal - I don’t know the answer to that question yet, but as soon as I find out, I will post about it.

update, apparently i heard that the necklace that simone had on is actually only a USA exclusive item… no wonder i cant find it anywhere… and i do not know of the quantities that will be released for it yet… more than likely it will only be at those four USA stores

Thanks for all of this info, Sanrio Worker! I will post it all in a new post.
