Thanks for your patience with this line, and for waiting on us to FINALLY receive it… I am at work right now and I have been informed that the new tokidoki x Hello Kitty line has finally shipped out to SF and Ala Moana and will possibly be here on Wednesday 1-28-2009.

Soooo, last little thing is that, it will STILL be first come first serve ABSOLUTELY NO HOLDS WHATSOEVER, and we are limited to ONE i repeat ONE item of each design maximum PER CUSTOMER.
Now, I implore you to be nice to us….. haha please? T_T The manager will be the one in the morning shift, and I will be at the store at 3pm PST…. and I know it’s gonna be high demand but be nice to our phone too… i don’t want it exploding and being flooded… well.. not too much at least haha… good luck and thank you for your business.”
omg!! i am sooOOOOOooo excited!!!! =D
perfect!! i will be at work on weds. so i get an hour to look around and make purchases!! looking forward to the buying. thanks for the info!!
hi hi!
but yea note the key word POSSIBLY tommorow =X
but if it DOES arrive, the mass email/text messaging will happen and it means that its ready for sale =]
Will you do orders over the phone and then ship items?
any word from ala moana store?
anyone from ny, the line is sitting there in the front of sanrio luxe and hardly touched by anyone.
just received an email that the items are now for sale at the sf location. per email, sf sanrio stated: “The bags, wallets, and ID cases are limited to one per customer. There are no holds. You can pay by credit card over the phone if you are able to come pick up the item today. You must show your ID and the card you paid over the phone with at the time of pick up. If you are unable to make it today…you fax/email a copy of your credit card and ID…pay for shipping and we will ship it via FedEx Ground.”
Yea the items did arrive then! Haha I got the message from the boss while I was in class..
And it seems like the mass email notification has been sent too.. Good good… Well good luck everyone
How much are these
Awww I’m so jealous! Does anyone know where to get this stuff in Los Angeles? Darn, Tokidoki’s headquarters are here in LA and I can’t seem to find any stores that carry their stuff up to date. =(
I called the Ala Moana store today and was told by the manager that they received word from the corporate office that their shipment would arrive the first week of February (next week?). She said to try calling back then. I may go to the store later this week to just check it out. If anyone hears differently from the Ala Moana store, please let me know
ok…. so i arrive at the store… and there was mention of some mean people haha. tsk tsk..
but overall everyone has been cool… PLEASE DO NOT CALL OR TEXT THE PHONE NUMBER THAT SENT YOU THE MESSAGE!
CALL 415-495-3056 INSTEAD OF SPAMMING the messenger’s cell phone!!! PLEASE STOP THAT!!!
ok so i am more than likely super late on this but i have a question for JLSF
i am from tx can i call ur store and pay for a bag and you can send it to me? or is this just for SF people??
what store in ala moana are you guys talking about?? sorry I just moved to hawaii.
5:15pm Pacific time update:
we only have one black boston bag left, everything else is still here!
Roxy: you can call and itll be sent to u. just note the thing i just said just now
correction, last black boston is now sold!
the ala moana store is giving out all kind of info..they told me yesterday they are expecting their shipment in the end of Feb..
oh and thanks again JL SF for the info! i sent my dad to ur store today! =D
I would maaaybe recommend using AIM to send out the mass text messages next time, JL SF! (: That way, you wont have to worry about people calling the person back.
Also, you should know that the automated email has the wrong phone number in it as well and the poor Chinese restaurant that is on the receiving end is probably just as unhappy as the original text messager LOL.
Hope everyone found what they were looking for!!
oh god… yea it wasnt me that did the mass email and text… if it was me i wouldve done it on AIM, and i feel bad for that chinese restaurant cuz this is the second time we did that to em… hahahah////
[...] Hello Kitty and Tokidoki is launching a Line 2…and it came out today and if you were lucky enough to be in San Francisco – it’s selling out fast! I’m so jealous. This new line is so adorable! [...]
OMG, no fair!! I was put on the list and i DIDNT GET A TEXT or anything!! holy crapola! O well…but i did call sanrio tonite and spoke to someone very nice…and hopefully they’ll have something left by the time i get there tomolo after work! **fingers crossed**
hellotoki: the sanrio store at ala moana is the one that will be carrying the hello kitty line in Hawaii
Good luck girls, I hope you all get what you want (:
does anyone know what the blanket looks like? or where i could find a picture of one?
Does anyone know if any stores in Washington state will get anything??
LMJ: wow really? im apologize for that, but that was me that you were talking to tonight.. haha… im surprised you didnt get the email or text weird…. well im gonna be there tommorow to help you out if you’re there after 3pm, but the girls will take care of you if im not there… they’re awesome
but its like 12am here now and im at home… it was a tiring release day… T_T but it was worth it…
Soooo… just an update… everything is still there except the black boston bag… which has sold out =( sorry to those that couldnt get it…
i called ala moana also and i was told to check maybe next week….
Srsly, I’d likee to know hot the blanket looks too, ciNNie.
*like to know how
i saw 2 blankets for $85 each yesterday but i didn’t open them to see what they actually looked like. i recall one was a green-themed one and the other was a pink-themed one.
re the blankets, the green one is similar to the sandy pouch/card case design and is up in the $85 range like tokibabe said. it’s very large! the pink one is like the donutella design, but is maybe half the size of the green one. and the price is less. can’t remember though. $65 or something.
the large plushies are super cute!!! they have donutella, sandy, and a cow holding a small latte plush at $98 each. so expensive! but so cute!
tokidoki.it is adding the new items for purchase online today. Boston and Mini bags are already available.
i will take pictures of the blankets tonight and post it on my blog when i get off work.
WHERE ARE YOU TOKIDOKI FANS TODAY!! COME BUY SOMETHING! haha its slow in the store =[
I heard rumors of pillows and plushies too. Pictures would be great!
oh my goodness! i had no idea the stuff was going to be on tokidoki.it
i am sooooo excited!!!! i was on the fence about the stuff, but the more i’ve seen it, i’m in love with the pink!
thanks for that update, Danielle!

Think Donutella can pass as my passenger for carpool? LOL jk!
wow! Thanks a bunch, JL SF!!
hello! Those plush and blankets are so adorable! :3 neway, two girls at the sanrio in ala moana told me wed. opposite things, like they will not be calling anyone whatsoever because its too much of a hassle… You must call them if u want to find out sometime next week… They also mentioned its two items per person n that they might not get everything in the line as well.. I called thurs. and got completely different answers. There needs to b some clearance with hawaii’s stuff… :/ sure can’t wait though! ;3
I wish they would sell the blankets and plush on tokidoki.it
JL SF, can your store ship to Canada?
Michy: hmm sorry to hear that about the contact list thing for hawaii but that was something that we did only. It’s really not that much of a hassle but I guess it’s a matter of opinion :/
Marie: sorry we don’t ship outside of the USA from our store. Maybe when the items go on our Sanrio.com site you may be able to.
plus there are regulation laws and such about shipping plush items to Canada from USA I read that somewhere
Hi! Did the SF store receive the plush keychains? I read somewhere that the US wouldn’t be getting any of those or the jewelry items – is it true? The Donutella plush is soooo cute!! I must own her!!
hello JL SF thanx so much for posting the pics!! now one more question….could you tell us the prices of each blanket and plush?? thanx : )
lyp: no we didnt, and yes its true, in fact its the jewelry, keychains, AND cell phone charms that will not be arriving in the USA. thats why the blankets and plush are here in the USA to be a replacement item for them
roxy: yea its 55 for the pink one and 85 for the green and white one. the plush are 98 dollars
Cool pixs…. JL
THe Donutella Plush is so cute….
sanrio store in alamoana will start selling toki hellokitty TOMORROW!!!
Does anyone know if the print is different on the blankets (like how each bag is different)? Or is it the same print on each blanket? How much are they again? There’s only two styles right?
